I like cinnamon rolls. That's why I wish they made, like, a cinnamon roll incense. 'Cause I don't always have time to make a pan.
As a tribute to "Take Back the Night" an event planned by the University groups AWAKE (All Women Attaining Knowledge and Enrichment) and NOW (National Organization of Women), the University Guide Service is giving historical tours entitled "How They Did It: A History of Women at The University" this week.

An air of celebrity flair and Hollywood panache swept over Grounds in a Wilsonian manner Sunday night.

All I really have to say is "I love the tender crisp bacon cheddar ranch." The fact that I've never had one is completely irrelevant; what matters is I've seen Hootie proclaim its glory about 800 times.
For the past 17 years of my academic and social development, I have been surrounded by girls. I went to an all-girls school from pre-kindergarten until I graduated from high school in 2002.

You know what really bothers me? OCM: Obsessive Compulsive Matching. No, I did not make this acronym up just to be funny (although I do hope that perhaps it elicits a smirk or two); rather, I truly think that OCM is a disease that cripples potentially fashionable students, robbing them of their right to a stylish outfit. Let's look at some examples, as there are many to choose from. First we have the OC Matcher who must match by brands.

Leaning against the wall in M. Rick Turner's second-floor office in the Luther P. Jackson House, home of the Office of African-American Affairs, is a chalkboard on which Turner has written the following quote: "The most meaningful and useful function of African-American administrators on white campuses is to become advocates for African-American students." Now in his 17th year as dean of African-American Affairs, Turner has built a legacy doing just that: acting as a vocal advocate for African-American students at the University. The quote, from civil rights advocate Dr. Samuel DeWitt Proctor, is a constant reminder of his role, Turner said. "It has told me and taught me that I am here for a specific purpose," he said, "that I've been sent here to do this." But Turner undoubtedly is a controversial figure on Grounds, and he is the first to admit it.
