Ask a Dude: Can Roommates Be More?
Hi Dude, There’s a lot of questions about guys and girls being ‘just friends’, so I have one for you. I’ve been friends with this guy since senior year of high school and we are now juniors in college. The two of us are sharing an apartment next year (just the two of us) and we hang out one-on-one all of the time.
Universities Do Their Part to Go Green
With Earth Day coming up (cue the Al Gore/whales/rainbows/wind technology montage) I took it upon myself to make a few Green changes in my life. I’ve swapped my regular lightbulbs for CFLs, picked up a few reusable grocery bags and started unplugging my electronics/appliances when I’m not using them.

Senior Files: Senior Spotlight on Basketball Star Jayne Appel
As an All-American athlete, Appel has led the Stanford Cardinal to the Women’s Final Four for the past two years.

Would You Rather…
Would You Rather be able to control time whenever you wanted (for example, if you wanted you could pause before a huge exam and get in some extra studying) OR be able to magically fix one thing you don’t like about yourself physically?
Guys Are Romantic, Girls Are Crazy?
Obviously, most girls will agree that The Notebook is the most romantic movie of all time. We love the passion, the romance, and idea of ever-lasting love. We cry every. single. time, we watch it. We want our very own Noah, a guy who wants us badly enough that he’ll dangle from a Ferris wheel just to ask us out.
I Love Your Style: Clarissa Explains It All
know, I know – blast from the freakin’ past, right? I think we all remember sitting in front of the boob tube as a ’90s kid watching Nickelodeon like it was our job (well, it kind of was besides sandboxes and swing sets). I didn’t know it then, but those childhood TV shows I was unknowingly obsessed with, like Clarissa Explains It All, would later serve as my style inspiration as a college kid.

Web Spy: Soshiku
A few years ago, Andrew Schaper was a high school student with the same organization problems I have. In order to solve these problems, he created Soshiku, a website that helps you manage and keep track of all your school assignments.
From PopEater: Did Ryan Seacrest Betray Crystal Bowersox?

CollegeCandy Confessions: Bathroom Secret
Confession: When I know I might be in the bathroom for awhile, I don’t grab a magazine or a book and take it with me; I grab my laptop. (Honestly, the bathroom is the only reason I’d get an iPad – it would be way more portable.)
8 Under $20: My Favorite Beauty Buys
Being a girl has its perks, especially when it comes to scoring free drinks at the bar. But being a girl also takes a lot of work and costs a whole lot o’ cashola. Just think about all the things we need to pay for that guys don’t: waxing, haircare, makeup, Spanx, the list goes on.
No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service? Not For The Situation
Dear “The Situation” (if that’s even your real name), You have nice abs. We get it. But don’t you think maybe it’s time to put a shirt on? At the beach on the Jersey Shore, it’s okay. But at the gym when you’re all sweaty, it’s unsanitary
Do-It-Yourself Tuesdays: The T-Shirt Scarf
It doesn’t matter if you go to an Ivy League school or a community college, there’s one thing that all colleges have in common and that’s FREE STUFF. Namely, free t-shirts. My dresser is currently overflowing with them (of varying sizes) and there’s no need for all of that cotton getting in the way of the cashmere and the silk.
