Decisions regarding future plans worry a junior
By Staff Writer | Feb. 13, 2013College is full of decisions. Oftentimes they are as simple as picking a room on campus or perhaps as complex as deciding on a major. The first two years are packed with new experiences, friends, jobs and opportunities and by the time we reach the ever anticipated summer break before the start of our junior year, we are inevitably exhausted. Just when we think we are out of the dark, junior year hits us with a new round of decisions that pack far more of a punch than their first-year counterparts. Not only do we begin taking the upper-classmen courses that include rigorous coursework pertinent to our major but the decisions we face oftentimes affect more than just our college careers.

A student urges, stop complaining about the caf
By Staff Writer | Feb. 7, 2013Be thankful for our cafeteria, its food and its workers. By no means am I saying that the caf is perfect but it is still something students should be grateful for. No, the food that's served there is not as good as your parents' home-cooking or as delicious and made with love as your grandmother's desserts, so on and so forth. We've all heard the shtick; I've participated in it once or twice, I won't lie.
