Does anybody know when the Majority Career Fair will take place? Who will be my white peer advisor?
Social Security is something you get when you retire, right? Right. It's also something you don't have to worry about until you retire, right?
As I stand about to forever sign off from The Cavalier Daily in the name of general fourth-year debaucheries, thesis writing and -- dun-dun-dun -- job searching, I would like to take this last opportunity to offer some words of encouragement to my fellow classmates. Walking around Grounds, it's hard to miss everyone's favorite breed of student: The suit-clad, briefcase-toting Commie -- Comm schooler, that is.
I DIDN'T even turn on the television this year. Commercials promoting this year's Source Awards Show televised on the Black Entertainment Network spoke to me loud and clear: This establishment is going nowhere, fast.
SCHAUB BACK to pass. He scans the field, looking for the open man. Dodges the defender in the backfield and sees Miller open on the sideline.
Even when colleges and universities are not facing budget cuts and imposing massive tuition hikes, the salaries of those in charge have always been a sensitive topic.
WE CAN fill these columns with accounts of recentviolent attacks in the Charlottesville area -- yet, I choose to express faith in the non-violent nature of this community.
THE TERROR futures market, althoughsuffering a major set back from the Pentagon deciding to drop the project, will nonetheless open in March of 2004.
THE HONOR system is one of the University's most hallowed traditions. Many students, faculty and administrators alike laud the merits of the system and the benefits such as proctor-free exams and a sense of trust that the system provides.
IN 1996, presidential politics took a leap into the digital age with both Republican candidate Bob Dole and President Bill Clinton launching their own Internet campaign sites.
IT WAS delightful to grab a Cavalier Daily on Friday and see the headline "University to increase hourly pay rate for staff." It's comforting that even in the midst of a budget crunch, the administration is thinking of its own.
ROY MOORE got what he wanted. In a hearing on Wednesday, the Court of the Judiciary of Alabama voted unanimously to remove the so-called "Ten Commandments Judge" from his position as chief justice of the state supreme court after he defied a federal court order to remove a 5,300-pound Ten Commandments monument that he had installed in the central rotunda of the supreme court building. The ruling brought an end (at least for now) to Moore's judicial career, but his return to private citizenry has been anything but private.
EVERY now and again, it is good to take a step back and just reflect upon life and what is really important.
IT SEEMS like every presidential candidate, Democrat or Republican, talks about how their campaign for the country's highest office is different than all the rest.
GUN CONTROL is a topic trotted out by leftists all over the country on a fairly regular basis. It will only be a matter of time before one of the Democratic presidential candidates embarks on a self-righteous crusade to eliminate guns from our lives.
THE ROLE of the government in American society today is dramatically larger than it was a century ago.
THE "FIRST year experience" isone of those buzzword phenomena that is tossed around at the University along the same lines as "student self-governance" and "community of trust." Though it comes with no shortage of definitional baggage, there is a unique, concrete occurrence that every University student experiences during their first nine months in Charlottesville.
LAST MONDAY's paper reported the news that 22-year-old Charlottesville resident Walker Andrew Sisk was stabbed to death at 14th and Wertland streets.
While browsing through the University's online calendar of events, I came across a lecture with a rather peculiar title: "The Liberal Case against Affirmative Action." Mainstream liberal thought definitely does not coincide with this notion.
We think too hard. It explains a comment that girls at the University "are too smart to know what they want." In reality, both genders are guilty of this.
