As you enter college, remember to treat yourself well

Meet The Setonian’s 2019-2020 editorial board
By Editorial Board | May 1The time has come, Pirates! This is officially the last issue of The Setonian for the academic year, and the current editorial board cannot thank you enough for being the best readership there is and making the news happen.
There’s nothing wrong with attending community college
By Merinda Gruszecki | May 1The two-year, “community college” stigma needs to end. The thoughts and opinions of two-year colleges in the past does not pertain to the current benefits attending community college has today.
Disabled students should study abroad
By Veronica Gaspa | April 24When I was getting ready to start my senior year at SHU, all I knew was I wanted to make it the best year ever. I was thinking about what I hadn’t done yet in college and the one thing that took over my thinking was study abroad. I had never left America, and it was at the top of my bucket list.
Remember to reflect and finish the year out strong
By Editorial Board | April 24We’re in the home stretch now, Pirates! It’s officially the week after Easter break, and we all know what that means: sunny skies, lounging on the Green and everyone’s favorite: finals.
I hope to pay it forward when I graduate
By James Justice | April 10Some memories are clearer than others, this one is crystal. I remember walking from Aquinas Hall to the University Center on a Wednesday night in April 2016. I didn’t know then, but the next half hour would change my life.
Dear administration, keep the Career Center where it is

I found myself through studying journalism
By Sarah Yenesel | April 3Like some other college students, I will be ending my collegiate career in a different place than where I started it. Towards the end of my first year as a nursing major at Seton Hall University, I realized that while I respect the profession, I could not find joy in doing that work for the rest of my life.
In college, remember to trust your gut
By Kaitlyn Quinn | March 30When I was a junior in high school, I figured out exactly what I was going to do for the rest of my life. I would attend Seton Hall University for its Speech Pathology 4+2 Program, graduate with three degrees in speech pathology, elementary and special education and English, and I would become a speech language pathologist. I would always have a job, I would save the self-esteem and speech of thousands of children, and I would write the next best-selling novel on the side.
Gun violence is more than just physical
By Staff Writer | March 30Since the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012, where 20 children and six adults were killed, there have been approximately 1,600 mass shootings in the United States as of February of 2018, according to The New York Times. In 2018 alone, there were 340 mass shootings in the country, and nearly four months into 2019, there have been approximately 75, according to the Gun Violence Archive.
It’s time to abolish the Electoral College
By Editorial Board | March 20The Electoral College went into effect in 1789 for a few reasons. One was to create a buffer between the population and the election of the president of the United States. Another was to give smaller states more power to elect the president. The Founding Fathers were hesitant to give American citizens direct power to elect the president; they were afraid a tyrant could manipulate the public and rise to power, according to Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 68.
Seton Hall needs to work on their security
By Robert Fallo | March 20Safety should be a top priority, if not the highest priority for a college campus. With thousands of students in the area every day, the potential for disaster without the correct security is heightened.
It’s not too late to go into journalism
By Kevin Kopf | March 6In the current age, it is easy to write off journalism, and subsequently related majors such as public relations, communications, and many more, as useless.
Live it up this spring break, but be safe
By Staff Writer | March 6Happy spring break Pirates! We’ve officially made it, I know it seems like we’d never make it. Spring break is officially upon us, midterms are over for the most part, and we have definitely all earned a break. This is why, we at The Setonian wanted to wish our fellow students a great break because you deserve it, but also offer a warning and some advice.
Taking charge starts at home, with us
By Staff Writer | February 27The first step in bringing about change is through caring about things that don’t affect us directly.
Take care of your mental health first
By Editorial Board | February 27It’s nearing midterm time, Pirates. You know what that means! All-nighters, countless deadlines, and sometimes a feeling like you’re not good enough.
