Doesn’t matter if you’re an incoming freshman or a seasoned veteran, students are constantly looking for accessories that are a must. Listed below are my top 5 accessories every college student needs:
- Laptop: The conventional laptop has become a must for the active and on-the-go lifestyle for college students in the 21st century. Between online classes, online assignments, papers, presentation and projects, the digital world has taken over the educational landscape.
- Water bottle: College students aren’t ones to discriminate on their water container. Hydroflask or yeti, cup or mug, something that every college student uses (especially on our campus with so many athletes) has become a need rather than a luxury.
- Bluetooth speaker: Off-campus or on-campus gatherings have become events that require music. Beats pill, JBL, BOSE are all brands that offer a boost to some of your favorite songs after long hours of studying in the quiet.
- Unlimited music subscription: No better compliment to a Bluetooth speaker than an unlimited music subscription through avenues such as Apple Music or Spotify. YouTube, Pandora and iHeartRadio work just as well for free, but nothing kills a party like a commercial break during a fire playlist.
- Portable phone charger: In a world of constant phone use, whether it’s for a project, listening to music or simply scrolling through social media, there seems to never be enough power.
