One Week
Classes for the spring semester begin in one week! I hope you all are as excited as I am to get back to Durham and start the new semester. With classes around the corner you are probably starting to think about buying your books (if you haven't yet). Text books can be very expensive and don't forget that you can order new and used books really cheap through the blog. Many students saved hundreds of dollars by using the blog bookstore last semester and I received great feedback from everyone. Be sure to check out the bookstore tab at the top of the page or on the side bar on the right. Thanks and see you in a week!

Almost there... and a few announcements
We're so close to the start of school I can already taste DHop. In one week students will once again flood the streets of Dirty Durham and the 2010-11 school year will be under way and I can't wait. Over the past few days the blog hits have began to climb, which is a great sign, and I have even started my first TNH column of the year. It is for the freshman issue and obviously directed towards the incoming class. The column is basically a few tips about college life, kind of a super flash glimpse of all the tips I have provided here and there. So hopefully that will help out a few freshman at least, especially those nervous about starting their college career.
I have a few plans for the blog this year, new reoccurring posts and themes, more "hands on" writing and hopefully a few "behind the scenes" type pieces, but I can't say too much until I know I can go through with them. We are going to continue to try and expand the blog and our impact and voice on campus. That being said:
ATTENTION UNH student orgs: If you have any events that you would like me to preview or help promote, (or live blog? hmm?) please email me at unhblog@yahoo.com. One of the things I hope to improve upon is reflecting the student voice and student unity. (Don't worry, there will still be plenty of alcohol and drug induced stories and posts throughout the year... maybe even more.)
If you haven't noticed, another blogger joined on: "UNH-Hi-Lites," who used to run the blog of the same name for a few months a while back. He is a student known for having great stories and a strong opinion on campus happenings, so we are very glad to have him aboard.
Finally, a textbook plug, just because I would like to clarify how that all works for those who haven't kept up over the summer. The blog now has a partnership with campusbooks, which is basically a search for finding the cheapest textbooks possible online. Via the blog "bookstore" tab or the side bar simply enter the book's info right here on the blog (ISBN code being the most direct) and it will present you with a list of options including amazon, half.com and dozens of others. Select the book you want and purchase. You will save money and we will make a few cents off it. (Seriously, we only get a few cents per order.) I have decided to use any money off that to either make t-shirts or throw a blog party at the end of the year. (Readers would be invited via facebook to keep it on the down low). It is really easy, you save money and help us. For example I ordered my books and spent $140 (including shipping!) I would have spent around $300-350 at the UNH stores. LadyMeow spent around $300 instead of $600 and a reader tweeted me saying she spent $190 instead of $746! As you can see you really will save money.
Enjoy your final week off and good luck this year.
Stay classy, not UMassy.

Get your Textbooks here!
UNH Blog is proud to announce a new partnership with CampusBooks.com! Campusbooks is a website that allows you to buy or rent new and used text books. Campus Books is very simple to use and it will help you save money. By entering in select information on the book (ISBN code being the best) CampusBooks.com searches through dozens of websites including amazon.com, half.com, bookrenter.com and many others to find the best deals for the user. It is a great way to save money and we get commission on every book sold through our partnership. With these small commissions it will hopefully allow us to make T-shirts and/or to throw one heck of a party at the end of the school year. It is a win-win for all of us. The new "bookstore" tab at the top of the site or widget on the side bar and the one below this post will all help you find the book you need. I would like to thank CampusBooks.com so much for this great opportunity.
Also, you can find just about any novel too, so for big readers this can be a nice way to save money. This can be great for people who just want to look cool by having a big book collection with all the most popular and hip authors.
