Before kicking the collegiate bucket


		Before kicking the collegiate bucket

The Review, University of Delaware, DE

7 hours ago by Sammi Cassin

If there is one thing in life I'm not, it's organized. In almost every aspect of my life, I am a total mess. My room is completely cluttered with useless knickknacks and clothes, my car is littered with papers, old water bottles and CDs and no matter how much I tell myself that "this is the year I'll stay organized," it always falls apart around day three of the school year.

Tolley/Brown gains style after renovation but loses character

Acorn, Drew University, NJ

1 hour ago by Michelle Caffrey

Two years ago, almost to the day, I cracked open the door of Tolley 125, and began one of the most harrowing dorm experiences of my life. Dim and flickering florescent lights made the hallway feel more like a J.J. Abrams movie than a dorm. The bathrooms nauseated me on a good day, with various creatures inhabiting the showers and the décor nearly unchanged since 1968.

Don't skip the experience

Last year, I remember my first semester as a freshman having my First-Year Seminar at 9 a.m. every Tuesday and Thursday, so I booked an 8:45 a.m. class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I thought if I woke up at the same time every day, it would make things easier for me.

Drinking Dialogue

To the Editor:

The article published last week entitled, "College presidents open discussion on drinking age," discussed the re-opening of a dialogue about the current minimum age to purchase and/or imbibe alcohol. It aptly described the positions of both President Dan Weiss and representatives from the local chapter Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

Freshman faux pas shared: four years later

The Review, University of Delaware, DE

13 hours ago by Caitlin Wolters

It's the start of another Fall Semester at the university. The grass is mowed. Main Street is buzzing. And looks on the faces of thousands of freshmen - panic stricken, lost and scared out of their minds - fill the Green as they try to find their way from Memorial Hall to Smith Hall.

A tale of bittersweet seniority


		A tale of bittersweet seniority

The Villanovan, Villanova University, PA

14 hours ago by Brigid Black

For many Villanovans, last Monday, the first day of classes, was the first time they set foot on Main Campus this year. These students returned to the Villanova campus far later than ever before. The reason? After three years as Wildcats, they don't happen to live here anymore.

The future of financial aid

The Villanovan, Villanova University, PA

14 hours ago by Editorial Board

It may surprise you to know that 40 percent of students at Villanova do not receive any financial aid. It may shock you that only 78 percent of general financial need is met. You may even be angry that the reason for those numbers and our general lack of financial aid is that over Villanova's 166-year history, the majority of our $360 million endowment has been raised only in the last 30 years.

'Nova's Own Housing Crisis

The Villanovan, Villanova University, PA

1 day ago by Editorial Board

This newspaper has written many times before about the deplorable state of campus housing for underclassmen. Most everyone is aware of the state (and lack of) campus housing, but in the University's defense, it faces major challenges within and outside of the Villanova community in order to have residence halls that will accommodate every student.

Stephen Krewson | We're number (sixty) one!

The Daily Pennsylvanian, University of Pennsylvania, PA

1 day ago by Stephen Krewson

If you're anything like me, you read Forbes for one reason and one reason only: the lists. And as anyone who knows anything will tell you, the best list ever compiled by the magazine is "World's Most Expensive Yachts."

When at a loss for conversation with my more nautical peers, I have often saved face by holding forth on the relative merits of the Alysia ($116.

Adam Goodman | Advice nobody tells you

The Daily Pennsylvanian, University of Pennsylvania, PA

1 day ago by Adam Goodman

There are two things wide-eyed freshmen can't seem to get enough of during NSO: drinking and advice.

The former will be concentrated in periodic outbursts of debauchery, but the latter will be unforgivingly relentless, largely unhelpful and almost uniformly corny.

Paper usage becoming cultural concern


		Paper usage becoming cultural concern

The Signal , The College of New Jersey, NJ

1 day ago by Meagan Terry

I have become preoccupied with paper; how much we use, how much is recycled, how much is not recycled, where it goes after we are done with it, how many trees we could save if we decided to make it mandatory to print double-sided - there's a lot to think about.

The way things should be.

Teams like the Tampa Bay Rays should come out of nowhere every year. Olympic Sports should be shown on National TV more than just once every four years. Voter turnouts should BE closer to 100 percent than they are to 50 percent.

Unfortunately, some things in this country fail to change because they are rooted in our psyche.

Millions of people have been energized by Barack Obama's campaign for the presidency. After eight disastrous years of George W. Bush, they are excited to see an inspiring, young politician with a multicultural background have a real shot at the White House.

Afghanistan war under the radar

Last Thursday night Barack Obama said, "I will end this war in Iraq responsibly, and finish the fight against al-Qaida and the Taliban in Afghanistan."

It was a night of real enthusiasm - a kind of night American politics has not seen for at least 16 years, since Clinton's first run in 1992.

Upon entering Sunrise Valley, my body nearly collapsed in pleasure as I was struck with the deep aroma of freshly baked donuts.
