The dimly lit artistic Gravity Lounge provided the perfect ambiance for the unveiling of a milestone.

This semester marks the debut of the new online course evaluations provided in the Course Offering Directory.
Nursing Students Without Borders: NSWB. Although this name may not ring a bell with many students at the University, this relatively small group of about 15 to 20 active student members has been making large changes in remote areas half a world away from the safe environment surrounding the University community since 1999.

I don't think I know one person who doesn't own a pair of jeans. I'm not sure what I'd wear if I didn't have any.
Textbooks, notebooks, paper and pens, a wallet and a cell phone, not to mention a bunch of other items -- University students carry around all of these on any given day.
I love "Law and Order" because it is, by far, the sexiest show on TV. The spin-off series, all 2,000 of them, try hard but fail to elicit as much teenage girl thrill as I get from the original.

In Hindi, "Awaaz" means "voice" -- a voice that third-year College student Shalin Sood, founder of the a capella group Awaaz, thought was missing from the University.
T he Gauntlet -- (n.) A short strip of land between Cocke Hall and mid-Lawn, under the constant vigil of one Homer Statue.
At what point does the quarterlife crisis kick in? I expect it to sneak up on me in the library, tap me on the shoulder, and say, "Hey, you're 20 years old now.
Each week, the Cavalier Daily asks a student 25 questions and allows him or her to eliminate five of them.
Have you ever been asked the question: "If you were stranded on a deserted island and you could bring an unlimited supply of only one type of food, what would it be?" The experts say it should be avocados because those suckers have a lot of vitamins and moisture and stuff like that.
Sunday afternoon, suitcases and backpacks lay strewn about the area surrounding the Amphitheater while students milled about, eating lunch and chatting with one another.
With the influx of a capella spring concerts, each group with its own unique features, some students may be wondering about one group's idiosyncrasy in particular -- the Hullabahoos' multicolored, multi-patterned robes.
