The 59th Primetime Emmys
Open-faced sandwich ideas
Before doing anything else this semester, Student Council needs to get its house in order. As the public learns more about the controversy centering around Vice President for Organizations Catherine Tobin and the space allocations process, it is hard to tell who or what is to blame. Is it institutional weakness or individual mistakes? It seems a bit of both, but until Council clarifies its bylaws and finally adheres to them, the so-called controversy will remain obscured by jargon and confusion.
NO TWO words have been more fetishized by the University community than "tolerance" and "diversity." Through endless performances of carefully choreographed public displays and earnest public moralizing, the? ubiquitous narrative of diversity and tolerance works to assure us that this institution has been cured? from the corrosive effects of the prejudices of yesteryear. Ultimately, the performance of spectacles highlighting the values of "tolerance" and "diversity" at the University do little more than obscure the silent social realities that fester underneath the warping language of this discourse. ?
IF YOU weren't hiding under a rock last week, you reveled in the plummeting career of Britney Spears. The pop princess came strutting on stage at the MTV Music Video Awards in little more than her undergarments for what was a truly pathetic performance. In the midst of all the hoopla and backlash, I was surprised to hear so many different media outlets and peers lament the star's inappropriate attire. With this heightened awareness, I observed the dress around Grounds and concluded that, in some cases, University students are not much better.
Josh Levy's largely baseless and highly politicized assault ("Over-AccessUVA," Sept. 17) on need-based financial reveals an undercurrent that is rarely discussed on grounds: the widening gap between socio-economic groups. Those of Levy's ilk seem to argue that there should be academic haves and have-nots, but more importantly that this distinction should be delineated not on a basis of intelligence or, more importantly, a true desire to learn, but instead on fiscal factors.
I was outraged when reading Josh Levy's column, ("Over-AccessUVA," Sept. 17).I would like to start out by stating that I am a recipient of a large amount of financial aid afforded by AccessUVA.That being said, it is obvious to see why I was offended and appalled by Levy's column.
The soft drinks in the libraries are way too expensive. They probably weren't much cheaper last year, but I was particularly irked to find that the price is now one dollar and forty cents. If they become any more expensive, we all might as well be cool and start smoking.
The Center for Undergraduate Excellence can bankroll your dreams,empower you to pursue your passions and broaden your intellectualperspectives -- if you can find it. Like many of the awards it offers, the location of the Center's office atop the Special Collections Library remains unknown to all but a few students. The lack of publicity for scholarships and research grants is one of the things Director Lucy Russell hopes to change this semester.
You would think, located centrally within Virginia and home to one of the state's most prominent research institutions, Charlottesville might deserve the honor of hosting a GRE testing facility. You would think, considering the volume of graduate school-bound students at the University, there might be one nearby. But there isn't, unless you consider almost 60 miles away "nearby."
Finally, the Governor of Virginia officially endorsed the first-yearlifestyle. Take fewer showers, eat on paper plates and by all means,avoid doing laundry. These were among the many suggestions Governor Kaine offered Virginians to cope with the ongoing drought, which has rendered eight counties into "federal disaster areas." Although the University has yet to impose harsh measures to restrict water usage in dorms and on Grounds, students can take steps to ensure such measures are never necessary.
DNA evidence has recently linked serial rapist suspect Nathan A. Washington to another incident of rape that occurred in 1997 at a hotel in Waynesboro County, Va.
The University's Center for Research in Contraceptive and Reproductive Health recently made strides toward a better diagnostic of immune infertility, a condition which prevents many people from conceiving.
It's what we strive for. It's what we need. It's what makes the world go round. It's money, and if anyone knows anything about it, professional athletes these days they are getting plenty of it. What people disagree on is whether these athletes are worth the exorbitant amounts they are paid. In my opinion, loss of privacy, constant scrutiny and potential for injuries merit their paychecks.
University Career Services reported this week that CAVLink, which took the place of HoosTRAK this summer as the University's online internship and job-posting system, has been experiencing small operating issues.
