Great College Pens

What does Elvis, bullets, safaris, and grips all have in common. They are all popular collections of “college friendly” pens. Each of these collections are unique, reasonably priced, write fantastic and are the perfect pens for college bound students.

Acme Studios now has an  Elvis Collection.  Expertly crafted with state-of-the-art components, each Acme Studios model comes in its own impressive presentation case.  Fun, colorful and highly expressive, these Acme Studios writing tools are sure to provide their owners with plenty of creative inspiration…..which everyone could use as they head off to class.

Do you sometimes like to escape to the far corners of the library or to the back of the local café in order not to be tempted by all the fun things that accompany college life?  Are you not one to be sitting at a conventional desk either,  rather on the floor or in bed with your pen facing upward?  You may want to consider Fisher’s Bullet Collection.  These Bullet pens are considered space pens because they have been selected by NASA for spaceflight; they were the only pens after rigorous testing to work in the extreme conditions of space so no matter where or how you end up studying you’ll know your pen will be reliable.

Each year of college is like going on a new safari.  You don’t know what strange creatures you’ll meet or circumstances you might  find yourself in. Similarly, dorm and campus living can be a little more rigorous without all the comforts of home.  Lamy Pens now has the Safari Collection.   Safari pens are designed in sturdy ABS plastic, so they’re rugged yet light weight. They have a contoured grip which makes them easy to hold. The spring-wire clip slides into and out of any pocket with ease and they come in great eye-catching colors.  Why not be ready for the jungle this year?

Finally you’ll need to “get a grip”  as you prepare for another tough year of studying, completing papers and having to spend many a late night at the lab.  Faber-Castell now offers the Grip 2011 Collection. “The silvery pencil with the black grippy dots has acquired two functional and good-looking brothers: the Grip 2011 ball pen and mechanical pencil. They have the same ergonomic triangular cross-section as the Grip 2001, while the non-slip grip zone helps provide a comfortable and relaxing hold for those marathon writing sessions. The mechanical pencil has a very tough 0.7-mm lead; a twist-out eraser is ever at the ready under the end cap. Thanks to the retractable guide tube, the pencil will not make holes in a breast pocket. ”

Well here’s to another year of academia, I wish you the best.  Remember to truly be successful in college you must both work hard and play hard and what better way to equip yourself  then having the best college friendly pens close at hand!
