What every freshmen should know

January 5, 2009 0

There are a lot of important things many new students don’t know when they start their first semester of college. These tips can make a first semester a great semester for a new student. One stop is a huge help for students and can cover a lot of things at once.

CAMPUS BRIEFS CARNEGIE ACKNOWLEDGES COMMUNITY ENGAGED UVU – The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has selected Utah Valley University as one of the newest members of its “community-engaged” classification.

Jenn’s Dusty Shelf

January 5, 2009 Jennie Nicholls-Smith 0

Morrissey and Marr made a name for themselves when they joined forces to become the legendary as well as infamous group The Smiths. I use the word infamous because most people have heard of The Smiths, but have never actually heard their music — or if they have, they don’t know it.

A japathon for the new year

January 5, 2009 Mel Sundquist 0

On Jan. 1 in the Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, devotees gathered for a japathon – a ceremony often practiced on New Year’s Day as a welfare project or gift. The participants in the japathon chanted 305 rounds total, surpassing their goal of 289 rounds.

BYU alum writes children’s book about same-sex marriage

January 5, 2009 Mel Sundquist 0

Mention the Mormon church and gay rights in the same paragraph and most Utah residents become livid, frustrated, or violently proud and defensive. Christian Burch, a BYU grad currently living in Wyoming, has taken it a step further, writing a children’s book about a boy with a gay manny (male nanny) which, according to a press release, includes in its plot a gay pride parade floating past the Salt Lake temple and a same-sex marriage between the manny and his charge’s uncle.

How to make it through spring semester 2009

January 5, 2009 Greg Wilcox 0

You knew it was coming. You could feel its dangerously close presence after New Years Day when the holiday fun started winding down. What can we do? Can we stop it? Delay it a little while perhaps? Despite our heartfelt objections, the new semester has fallen upon us swiftly and without remorse.

The geek’s guide to finding a girl

January 5, 2009 Ben Steele 0

Wolf T-shirts, jeans from Costco, pale skin, a vaguely sinister presence and that odd smell that you just can’t seem to find on anyone else: This is what we geeks get for not dropping more points in charisma. Taken straight from the source (the FOH gaming boards and myself), I’ve compiled an all-important list of things that you should and should not do to make the process of finding a girl a little smoother.

A film carried by the actors

January 5, 2009 Bret Meisenbach 0

On Dec. 25 a large chunk of the population celebrates Christmas. Many do this by going to the movies. One of the millions of films released on the Christian holiday is Doubt, pulling viewers in using an all-star cast: Phillip Seymour Hoffman (Capote, Boogie Nights), Meryl Streep (Kramer Vs.

Dark Reign

January 5, 2009 Benjamin Bailey 0

It is tough being a Marvel superhero. Sure, you probably have hardships you deal with every day as a college student, like the collapsing economy, the constant threat of terrorist attacks and the rising cost of textbooks, but these guys have it way worse. Take all that crap that happens in the real world, mix in invading aliens and the Hulk knocking over half of New York, and you have a fairly good idea of what was going on in Marvel Comics over the past couple of years.
