There are countless things you could buy from Target, but no one wants a cluttered bag.

We asked two Biola students what they keep with them and actually use. Maddy and Lucas sifted through the superfluous items to give us their backpack essentials — find them below!

What's in Maddy's backpack?

  • Laptop
  • Phone and laptop chargers
  • Wireless headphones
  • Planner, notebooks, folders and index cards
  • Pencil bag with pens, mechanical pencils, highlighters and a calculator
  • Gum and tic tacs
