  Many students go through everyday thinking about what kind of activities are available for enjoyment during one’s free time. In many situations students have no idea on what kind of events and entertainment is offered to one aside from the normal dinner and a movie.

  What is a college bucket list you ask? A college bucket list is a list of things such as, events, activities, and places that a college student would like to take part in before graduation day arrives.

  The items on the list can be as simple as “having a picnic in the park” or “baking a cake”. They can also be considered more meaningful to the person who makes the list such as; “writing a letter to a loved one” or “doing a good deed”. They can even be more on the extreme side of activities such as, “Swimming with dolphins” or “zip lining”. The list all depends on who is writing and what each individual wants to accomplish before graduation.

  “Before I created a college bucket list I didn’t know what I wanted to do before graduation, I had thoughts and ideas but would end up forgetting most of them because I never wrote it down. Then I made my bucket list and now I don’t go one week without crossing an item off of my list.” Said, Christopher Rivera- Current Student.
