The 15 struggles you'd understand only if you went to UWI

Ah, UWI.

Those three to four years on campus were the best of times and worst of times. It was that transitionary period into adulthood, where we began to learn how to take care of ourselves and created lifelong memories and friends.

At times, it also felt like the university was out to get us.

If you're a UWI alum, some of these struggles may resonate with you, so let's take a walk down memory lane.

Yeah the only one I can relate to as a Cave Hill graduate is #5, some of the lecture rooms were pretty cold, but those were usually the ones adjacent to the computer labs smile
