There are many things I miss about college. Only 15 hours worth of obligations a week, late nights, the ability to watch daytime TV (oh wait, I still do that). But one of the things I miss most was the once-a-semester poster sale.
They would set up at the beginning of every semester in Brady Commons and I bought at least one poster there every semester.
Thinking back, the posters are kind of hilarious. There are many categories of poster and I had at least one from almost all of them.
First was the romantic black and white prints. I had this one of a couple kissing in Paris:
Of course there were the normal movie posters. Most people went Boondock Saints or Fight Club, but I went with my personal favorite movie Good Will Hunting:
Let us not forget the arty hip hop posters. I, of course, had Tupac. This isn't the exact poster I had. Mine had the words "Only God Can Judge Me" on it which made it infinitely more awesome.
And lastly, the cool old movie stars posters. I went Audrey Hepburn. I always thought she was way cooler than Marilyn Monroe.
There were also like Anne Geddes prints and motivational posters, but I never stooped that low. Yeah, I had the coolest dorm room out there. You can be jealous all you want.

Let's just remember who bought you the poster that said "only God can judge me." I also lightened 203 with a Sex and the City poster and one with soccer players with their hands over their special area that said, "COURAGE." My personal favorite, in fact I believe it hung over our mantel.
