These days, it seems college students are far too consumed with themselves. It´s not their fault, completely. With paper deadlines, part-time jobs, socializing and trying not to kill your roommates, time goes as fast as a six pack at the frat house. But chances are, you have a little time each week when you´re not doing a thing.

Having a car on campus isn´t the best idea. Gas, money, tickets, the possibility of DUIs and towed cars are all reasons to leave your sweet ride behind. Now that we´ve said that, you´re going to ignore it all and drive your 4-MPG Americanmade truck monster everywhere because of your contempt for nature and your fear of snowflakes.

When the foam settles and the smoke clears, you may realize there’s more to do around here than sink plastic balls into plastic cups or hook up with whatever moderately attractive people you find yourself alone with.

After the cost of tuition, housing and books, your pockets are feeling the pain. Add a campus crowd looking for fun, and money may become an issue. But to the activities expert, Lansing isn’t as expensive as it seems. The city can be haven for free or nearly free activities; it just takes a little research.
