CORRECTION: The quote from economics senior Parth Tikiwala should have read “It’s a high level of warning that you get with Friday the 13th.”

“I usually find Friday the 13th to be a very unsuspicious day. Good things happen to me on Friday the 13th. Maybe I’m an exception to the rule.”

“I don’t really believe in Friday the 13th. I’m going to my friend’s house and she lives near Hell, Michigan. They’ll probably have a party (today) about it.”

Neeharika Tumati
international relations junior

“It’s a high level of wording that you get with Friday the 13th. Let’s not conform to it, and be your normal self. As long as you cross every T and dot every I, I think you’re gonna be alright.”

Parth Tikiwala
economics senior

“I like 13. 13’s my lucky number. My birthday’s been on Good Friday the 13th before. I’ve never really been that superstitious.”
