The morning routine

When does night end and morning begin? I woke up this past Tuesday morning to a moonlit sky and ?Shake It? playing on the radio.

New Year Nutrition

Happy belated New Year, faithful Cav Daily readership! I know I?m a few weeks late, but let?s pretend you just finished ringing in 2009.

Decoding the skies

Why does it rain some days, while the sun shines on other days? Why is it usually cold in January, but sometimes a day creeps in that feels more like spring than winter?

A major decision

College is a place that requires major decision-making. With dozens of possible subjects to choose from, selecting an area of study is not always easy for University students.Topping the to-do lists of most first-year students are activities like ?do the laundry? and ?study for tomorrow?s history test.? Few include the long-term planning of deciding a major, which takes both time and research.While students in the College have until the end of their second years to mull over possible career choices and undergraduate degree programs, students in the Engineering School must declare a major by the end of their second semester.Undergraduate Engineering students may choose from 10 degree programs, from aerospace engineering to computer science to mechanical engineering.
