In the opening remarks of his State of the Union Address, President Obama proudly declared, “America, for all that we have endured; for all of the grit and hard work required to come back; for all of the tasks that lie ahead, know this: the shadow of crisis has passed, and the State of the […]

Jodi Says: Getting your head in the game
If you’re distracted during sex, you’re not going to have a good time. Webwork, your roommate walking in and whether you want to move in with your boo next year are all just not sexy thoughts. And once they’re in your mind, the quality of the sex you’re having deteriorates quickly. You’re not so hard, […]

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.
