I now have been the Sports Editor at the Campus Times for nearly a semester. Normally my duties include watching sports, talking to people who play sports, and writing about sports. Unfortunately, there are currently no sports being played to write about, so I’ve had to find other ways to fill my time.

Cockroach racing
If you had Hotwheels when you were a kid, you’ll love this! Simply place two to four cockroaches on a track and put food at the other end. If you want to get fancy you can broadcast this online and take bets — people are probably bored enough to join in.

Drinking in front of your parents
Now that you’re in college, your parents let you drink at the house. But how much can you drink before they question it? A beer is certainly fine, but what if you take a shot? Can you use a beer bong? What about slap cup? Molly water? How far will your daring spirit take you?

Beyblades
Remember these? Bring back your childhood by pitting these spinning finger traps against each other. Be prepared to get your fingers cut a little by accident because you taped razor blades to them. Keep away from family pets. 

Competitive disease spreading
Did you catch coronavirus? How many people can you spread it to? Winner gets to call themselves Coronavirus Mary!

Working out
While you can’t go to the gym, there’s a lot to be said for working out in your garage. Going for a run is a good way to convince people that you’re a bank robber (Remember to cover your face with a mask and wear a suspicious coat!)

Shootin’
Since gun stores are considered essential, now is the perfect time to buy yourself a gun. Then, simply go out into the middle of nowhere and start shooting random shit. You should probably make sure there’s no one else there, but y’know, accidents happen.



The dirty truth of greenwashing

It goes without saying that greenwashing, or any other form of disingenuous activism, is wrong.

A look into the Mexican Students’ Association, where students find ‘a home on campus’

The group gained approval midway through the Fall 2024 semester, and throughout last year, Martinez and Andrade-Gonzales tabled at the Activities Fair, held e-board elections, and were finally able to officially reserve on-campus spaces for the club to meet.

The Blue Tsunami of November 2025, as observed by a recent Rochester immigrant

The American people are saying ‘no’ to the hateful, right wing sentiments that have been pervading the country since Trump’s 2016 win.
