  • Duke It Out: Birthday Shots

    Duke It Out: Birthday Shots

    This week, the last bar in State College (that’s the town where the main campus of Penn State is – the name confused me for a while too) to hold out on the 21st birthday tradition of doing way too many shots decided to amend it’s stance and stop serving shots to new 21 year-olds. All of the bars in State College now abide by this policy – you can still get beer or mixed drinks, just no shots…

  • Coupled. And Cohabitating

    Coupled. And Cohabitating

    I don’t know about every other college out there, but here at UT it’s time for people to start planning their living arrangements for the fall. Some people greet this time with the panic of trying to find a decent place to live that isn’t a ga-billion dollars, while others are excited for their first apartment with their best friends (no matter how much it costs).

    Fashion Porn: Prints and Patterns Get It On

    There really is a pattern and a print for everyone. The only problem is, with so many options this season, how do you choose? Don’t! Stock up on a wide variety of patterns and prints for a bright and fun spring/summer wardrobe.

  • Study Says: Drinking Doesn’t Affect Academic Performance

    Study Says: Drinking Doesn’t Affect Academic Performance

    We all are victims of the classic college dilemma: huge party at night, big test in the morning. The modern day “to be or not to be.” We don’t want to risk being hungover for our test, but missing our roommate’s cousin’s girlfriend’s younger brother’s birthday is totally not in the cards. We go back and forth weighing the pros and cons, slowly being sucked in by peer pressure.

  • On Being Victimized by a Real Life AOL Chat Perv

    On Being Victimized by a Real Life AOL Chat Perv

    Out of nowhere, a gentleman sat down next to me, and immediately started his lame flirting game. I tried to blow him off with talk of a boyfriend, but he persisted in trying to engage me in conversation. I buried my head in my book. Rather than walking away, I had made a conscious decision to assert my autonomy and stay where I was.

    The Know: Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution

    There’s a new reality show in town, peeps, and this time it’s actually good. I’m not talking so-bad-it’s-oh-so-good like Jersey Shore and all it’s fist pumping glory (as thankful as I am that I’ve learned how to beat the beat); I’m talking eye-opening, thought provoking, I-can’t-believe-this-is-the-country-we-live-in good, and it’s starting this Friday.

    Kim’s Too Busy for Reggie Bush?

    In the back news of the Jesse James/Sandra Bullock scandal, another couple has called it quits: Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush. Ok, when you are finished drying your tears, please keep reading.

  • The Government’s War on GTL

    The Government’s War on GTL

    The health care bill passed this week (Liberals: Yay! Conservatives: Booooooo!), and after all the proverbial dust had settled (and all that really mature name-calling came to a screeching halt) we were left wondering: How are we going to pay for this?

    From PopEater: J-Woww and Ronnie To Bust Out ‘Jersey Shore’ Book

    The first ‘Jersey Shore’ book has been announced, and we’re sad to say it won’t be Snooki’s tell-all.

  • Sexy Time: Swinging Both Ways

    Sexy Time: Swinging Both Ways

    Before I graduated high school, my friends and I had an ongoing joke about the college life. More specifically, we would semi-kid about the drunken “lesbian experience” that the crazy nights of college parties would inevitably bring. As it turns out, many of my ideas about college life that I learned from Van Wilder and American Pie movies aren’t quite accurate.
