Scantrons and Blue Books!


Hello all,

Two things that you will become very familiar with early on in college are Red Scantrons and Blue Books. These essentials are what you will be taking tests on.

The red Scantron is a full sized sheet that professors will ask you to purchase in order to take your multiple choice tests. It's just like the bubble sheets/scantrons you used throughout middle and high school.

The Blue Book is a pamphlet of blank, lined, paper. You will use the Blue Book for short answer/essay questions on an exam.

Both the Red Scantrons and the Blue Books can be purchased at the campus bookstore, or at the Spartan Market below the Fountain View Dining (The Caf).

Until next time,

Brandon Scott
