    True Story: I Don’t Want to Graduate!

    I’m not avoiding graduation for bland reasons like good parties and my group of friends, although I’ve met some amazing people and had some legendary nights thus far. I’m just not ready to walk the post-grad plank right now.

    Valentine’s Day For The Single Girl (Who Doesn’t Want To Have A Pity Party)

    Legend has it that Valentine’s Day became a thing because back in the day, in Rome, Claudius – the homeboy that ran the country – put a ban on all engagements and marriages because it was a time of war and he needed men to fight in his army. Well, St. Valentine wasn’t having any of that…

    Wear Anything But Clothes [ReadyU Conquer This List]

    Fact: at my school, we have to pass a swim test to graduate. No, I did not make that up and yes, it’s weird. What’s even weirder is that the students in the engineering school don’t have to take the test, apparently because they’d be able to build themselves a boat (at least that’s what everyone says).

    Back to Square One [Diary of the Undateable]

    Technology turned its cold back on me this week. I should’ve known to never, ever EVER trust a computer or something digital…but I didn’t.

    NC Students Divided Over Butt Plug Bingo, True Story

    North Carolina State University decided to host a kinky bingo night. Oddly enough, many students were pretty pissed that their student fees were going to such a “crass” game.

    Fashion Student Commits Suicide, Leaves Behind Louis Vuitton Bag of Names Banned From Funeral

    The lack of support she felt from her “friends” after a supposed bullying incident seem to have caused the young student to turn to suicide.

  • When Did Racism Become Recreation?

    When Did Racism Become Recreation?

    It saddens me when I have to read about incidents such as the one that occurred at Duke by the Kappa Sigma Fraternity. The fraternity decided to host an Asian themed party, which was originally called Kappa Sigma Asia Prime.

  • The Highest Paying Undergraduate Major to Have Is…

    The Highest Paying Undergraduate Major to Have Is…

    When I was six years old my dream job was to be a cashier. I scanned those toy grocery items like my life depended on it. When I was 11, we went to the aquarium and I decided that I was going to be a marine biologist. Then high school came along and I realized I wasn’t that great at biology…goodbye killer whales and sea turtles.

    U.S. borrowers have accumulated around $1 billion in loans and schools like Yale and The University of Pennsylvania have been forced to take extreme measures. They’re suing students.

  • I’m A College Student and *Gasp* a Republican…and It’s Actually Not Funny

    I’m A College Student and *Gasp* a Republican…and It’s Actually Not Funny

    I shouldn’t be nervous, or afraid of ridicule when telling someone my beliefs. I shouldn’t be the butt of a joke, and, frankly, I’m pretty tired of it. I accepted it during election season, and I accepted it with each gaffe made by former President George W. Bush. I’ll even accept the jokes made about Bachmann and Palin, but don’t turn me into a joke.

    How Do I Tell My Friend Her BF Might Be Gay? [Ask A Dude]

    Aside from being extremely flamboyant and touchy-feely with other men, she mentioned to me when she was drunk one night that they haven’t had sex in almost a year. I’m not really sure what I’m allowed to say in a scenario like this, and I have no evidence aside from my strong suspicions.

    Frontin’ For His Friends and Followers [Diary of the Undateable]

    One of my fav songs from 2003 is “Frontin’” by Pharrell. Not just because he looked totally hot in the video or because Jay-Z spit a few bars on the track…but because they break down the thought process of a guy who likes to pretend in front of his friends.
