If you think about it in pessimistic light, there really is nothing new about "the news." For the past week, The Cavalier Daily has published several articles about being preppy and flipping the collar up on polo shirts. Unfortunately, this "trend" is neither "new" nor worthy of ink in a printed periodical.
"Hip hop and you don't stop." This week, LMNTal and Young Black Entrepreneurs are co-hosting the University's first Hip Hop Week, which features a variety of events around Grounds. Brian Kayser, second-year College student and the president of LMNTal, said Hip Hop Week is a part of the organization's efforts to promote awareness of hip hop culture on Grounds.
On the way from Cabell to Newcomb, the reason for the University's preppy reputation becomes clear.
Hopefully by the time you read this on Monday morning, you're not still in the dark. Well, it is Monday morning, so mentally it may take a while for the lights to come on upstairs. But I'm talking about the darkness imposed by our dear friend Isabel, who blew into Charlottesville a week ago and took our electricity with her. For some people, the blackout was temporary: My power came roaring back to life at 6:00 a.m.

Can someone please tell me what's the deal with those people who come to class only to fall asleep five minutes into the lecture?
Man, was that worth it!For under $20 -- excluding tax and tip -- Asian Buffet, an all-you-can-eat Chinese/Japanese restaurant, is a sure winner, especially in a college town. Located north on Route 29, directly behind the old Chang House lot (tear), Asian Buffet is the white building resembling the many barns in the Albemarle area.
Crisp mornings and cool evenings are among us. The North Face fleeces and clogs have been dragged out of the closet, and the cup of coffee that until recently added to the heat of the day now is a comforting warmth on the way to class.
Every year around this time, I look at my calendar and try to figure out how I'm going to make up everything I'm missing for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, the two holiest days of the Jewish year. Rosh Hashanah begins tonight, so fortunately only Yom Kippur actually falls on a weekday this year, Monday, Oct.
Coke and Pepsi -- the dominating forces of the soda industry -- have battled for the favor of soda drinkers for decades.
Before we begin this week, we must first pay homage to perhaps the best commercial of the summer, and easily one of the greatest of all time: This chick's rockin' your bro on the dance floorBut she's towing an anchorA junior investment bankerWho's talking about herself and not much moreOh oh ohhhhSo buy her a beerIt's the reason you're hereMighty WingmanYou're taking one for the teamSo your buddy can live the dreamWINNNNNGGMMAAANNNNNNNNNNNN Here's to the Wingman Coors Light.

It's being sparked by Enrique Iglesias or Ricky Martin to live 'la vida loca' every Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
For the amount of complaining we girls do about guys -- whether it be the morning after conversation with our girlfriends or the multiple books targeted to assist us in our woes -- I have discovered in my 19 years of life and six of dating that maybe these guys deserve more credit than we give them.
I have a calling in life. No, I'm not joining a convent or teaching English in Malaysia, but the voices tell me my duty is just as important: To create a national dance movement. The life-changing moment occurred this summer, when I was sharing a bottle of white wine with my best friend while we perused one of those insanely irrelevant, girly, coffee table books entitled The Bad Girl's Handbook to Having Fun.
Few people have witnessed the University's changes over the decades like Dorothy Mae Harris, Phi Kappa Psi fraternity's 77-year-old cook. She can recall the dress code when the University required males to wear khaki pants and ties, only donning casual shorts when they were headed to Memorial Gym to work out.
Sitting at the very back of the Chemistry auditorium, it often can be hard to hear your professor's lecture, let alone discern his or her exact facial features.
There is nothing like the smell of a New York City subway. Walk 13 steps beneath the sidewalk on the first hot day in May and the odor will change your life.
