A new trend is emerging with students: laptop stickers. Take a look around Wright State and it becomes clear that students use laptop stickers to express themselves.

But what do these stickers actually mean to students? 10 students explain why they chose their stickers and what they mean to them.

Disney

“I have a lot of Disney stickers because I’m obsessed and my family goes there a lot. I also have some Supernatural stickers because it’s my favorite show. One of my stickers is of my friend David Bays. He makes music so I have his sticker to support him,” said junior acting major Hailey Marshall.

Lizards, traveling and politics

“A couple of my stickers are of lizards because I have a lizard. I also have some from the places that I’ve been to. Also, some are political because I really like politics,” said Erica Jones, junior social work major.

Beaches

“My friend and I bought [around] 150 stickers and just split them up. Mine have a beach vibe; it spoke to me because I miss the summer,” said Fatema Ahmed, junior applied mathematics major.

Hometown feels

“I have a couple of French stickers because I’m a French major. One says ‘Meuf’ which is slang for ‘the girls’ and another is ‘l’importe quoi’ which is used when someone says something that isn’t really important. I also have the Front Bottoms because they are my favorite band [as well as] a Harry Styles quote. I’m from Cincinnati so I have the Cincinnati skyline,” said Kearstyn Bowen, junior french major.

E

“I have an ‘E’ because my name starts with an ‘E’. Also, I’m an education major so I have a quote about teachers. I also have one that my friend gave me, it’s a saying that she uses all the time,” said Elly Kumbusky, sophomore early childhood education major.

The Bowie and art

“I have one of David Bowie because he is one of my favorite singers. There is a quote that I think is funny. I went to Amsterdam and there was an artist that I really liked and [the pink one] looks sort of similar to their artwork,” said Savannah Short, undeclared sophomore.

WSU Pride

“Someone was giving out these for free on campus one day and I thought that they would look nice on my laptop, especially because the back is all scratched up so they cover that up,” said Shebie Rose, sophomore math education major.

Fandom

“The impeachment one is pretty obvious and so is the equality one. I have a lot of fandom stickers from the Umbrella Academy and one of Iron Man. Freddie Mercury is a pretty big inspiration so that is why I have a sticker of him,” said Angie Wallace, senior psychology major.

Look out for laptop stickers on campus. They are everywhere from classrooms to the library to The Hanger.
