Ivy League Cookie Showdown

FIGHTING FOR THE LAST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE.

Follow for more relatable Ivy moments!

You know the scene. It’s a chaotic Tuesday evening in the dining hall, your brain is a blur from that 3-hour seminar, and all you crave is a small victory. You’ve successfully navigated the pasta line, avoided eye contact with that professor, and now, your sights are set. There it is: the sole, perfect, slightly-too-warm chocolate chip cookie, glistening on the dessert tray.

Instantly, the unspoken competition ignites. You’re not just hungry; you’re an elite strategist. You glance around, a quick scan for potential rivals. Is that economics major making a beeline? Is the pre-med student feigning disinterest while subtly shifting their tray? This isn’t just about a sweet treat; it’s a high-stakes, low-calorie showdown. It’s the split-second decision-making, the quiet determination, the almost intellectual calculation of who deserves it most (definitely you, after that problem set).

We’ve all been there, elbowing through the dinner rush, only to claim that precious, solitary dessert like it’s a research grant. It’s a moment of pure, unadulterated triumph, a small win in a world of constant challenges. And let’s be honest, it’s a moment only we truly understand. The competitive drive, the quick thinking, the sheer satisfaction – all for a cookie. This is our shared, slightly absurd, undeniably Ivy experience.
