Latino summit offers space to reflect, connect
It’s the fall of my senior year, which means between classes and trips to Starbucks, a bigger question is always on my mind: Where will I be when I grow up? I’ve put on my suit, tweaked my resume, and even started networking with graduate schools and other programs. But among all of my anxiety […]

No bull about pitbulls
I’m not a big fan of dogs – I guess I have a form of cynophobia – but I respect dog owners and the reason why they have dogs. It’s the bond between an animal and a human that can’t really be compared to the bond between two humans. Be honest, you’re more likely […]

Have a PH of 14? No problem.
“Milkshake with them crushed up Oreos!” Swedish cloud rapper Yung Lean spits on the track “OreoMilkshake.” From an outsider’s perspective, Yung Lean might seem like the male counterpart of your basic “basic bitch” – just another kid dousing his problems in sugary beverages, a hopeless product of consumer culture.

You know [that other freshman girl we both knew]? I slept with her already.” I wasn’t really sure how to respond, but thankfully his drunkenness meant that I didn’t […]

Food on campus: the delicious sequel
The best satisfaction after a long and hard day of classes, work, or sleeping through these things is a rich, nutritious meal. As a River Campus resident, I often find myself at Douglass or Danforth to indulge my unquenchable appetite. Recently, I have found these locales to provide an improved variety of nourishment. As frequent […]

Wherefore college?
I have two friends who, despite having been best friends with each other since elementary school, could not be more different in their approaches to their UR educations. One friend has had the same major for all his time here, and he has known what he wants to do with his life for some years. […]

Candy, costumes, and the origin of Halloween
When we were young, Halloween was all about getting the coolest costume and begging for candy from all of your neighbors. Or better yet, driving to the neighborhood in town that had a reputation for handing out the best candy. By the end of the evening, everyone had a large bag full of chocolate, pixi […]
