Back to School Series: What's in my backpack?

The Pumpkin Spice Latte and Back-To-School sales have made it pretty clear, it is time for school again! A successful school year means being prepared for any occasion, so we're here to list some of the things you should always make sure to have on hand. First and foremost, you need to have something to carry all of your books and study materials around in. Here’s a sample of what is out there! 



These bags were chosen for their ability to hold laptops because it is hard to keep up with your professors unless you are able to type out all of your notes. The upper right bag is a Vera Bradley backpack that allows you to carry your laptop but is still the typical backpack style while the rest are messenger bag style.

The next thing you need to be a successful student are study materials!



For those of you taking math/science/or even some Psychology classes, you will need a scientific calculator! You will also need plenty of pens and pencils to take down notes, calculations, and/or class assignments and of course notebooks or paper to write things down! Highlighters and notecards should be two key staples in your study materials! Notecards are essential for reviewing test material and highlighters help you keep track of important information that could potentially be on your future tests. Last but definitely NOT least we included a coffee mug because caffeine IVs are not legal...yet! ;)

The last thing we thought was important to include is something that helps you stay on top of all your studying, assignments, and even sorority or other club events.



The agenda! They come in the basic style you can usually get at the bookstore (featured in the upper right) to the very popular Lilly Pulitzer and Kate Spade agendas which come in a myriad of prints and styles! Our personal favorite is the TFIOS planner (bottom left) because some infinities are shorter than others :) Plan them well so you can enjoy them!

With hope for your back to school success,
