Being a junior, I felt this year would be a good time to move off-campus and start to get the hang of living on my own. This year, I live in an apartment a few blocks from campus.
As college students born in between the years 1982 and 2000, the majority of Seton Hall students, we are members of what has been dubbed by generation theorist William Strauss as the "Millennial Generation." Another nickname of our generation has sprung about over recent years, the "Boomerang Generation," due to the newfound tendency of young adults to return to their origin homes after living on their own for short periods of time.
The Setonian would like to take the opportunity to applaud Seton Hall for its significant improvement in its sustainability rating by greenreportcard.org.
I am writing to you as a concerned parent. My son is a freshman. Since the start of school, I have sent him four different envelopes though the mail. Three of them he never received, the fourth he received opened, the contents missing and the enveloped taped up. I have spoken to other parents and almost everyone has had a problem getting mail to their student. I have also been told by seniors, that this has been a problem since they were freshman. Why has this been allowed to go on for this long?
The Setonian is disappointed by Tuesday's accidental leak of the personal information of 1,500 students. We believe incidents of this nature should not occur within a University.
Having trouble writing term papers lately? It's time to step up; employers are noticing that the writing skills of college grads aren't up to par.
In light of the uncertainty regarding Seton Hall's current budget standing, The Setonian believes that all members of the University community must be prepared to tighten our belts.
Monday, Oct. 11, marked National Coming Out Day, a day for lesbian, gay, transgender and queer people, and their allies, to affirm their commitment to equal rights for LGBTQ people across America. Campus Ministry chose to mark this week by inviting Damon Owens, a speaker for the Theology of the Body Institute and New Jersey Director of National Organization for Marriage, back to campus.
We are in the midst of tragedy here at Seton Hall. You don't need me, or any other person, to tell you that. The thoughts and memories of Jessica Ann Moore and the events that happened on Sept. 25, will forever be in our minds.
Seton Hall has had many successful, and not so successful, teams over the years. Most noted would be the 1989 men's basketball team that made it to the NCAA Championship game. Last year, Seton Hall witnessed the end to a few of the most successful athletic programs, indoor and outdoor track and field.
To the Editor:
The fatal act of violence which occurred one mile from Seton Hall's campus on Friday, took place in, what an article on NJ.com was quick to point out, an "unsanctioned" Greek life house. The university should reexamine its policy in sanctioning Greek life housing in order to create a safer environment for students.
To the University Community,
The Setonian would like to offer our sincerest condolences to the family of Jessica Moore. As members of the Seton Hall community, which lost a dear and valued member, we share in your grief.
Dear Seton Hall Family,
The SHUFLY shuttle has been so crowded this year that students have been turned away. The Setonian believes, for the safety of the students, this issue must be resolved.
