USG and SAB: Budgets and Cuts
This year’s Undergraduate Student Government budget has shown a relinquishing of the budget cuts that consumed almost every club during last year’s budget allocating. Almost every club received a small increase in their funding, while some, like the Fine Arts Organization and the Japanese Student Organization, received double the amount of the previous year’s allocation.

In the Staller Recital Hall, you’re more likely to see empty seats, elderly couples and noses buried in program notes. The room is hushed, the stage lights stark. And the piano—a Steinway—is probably worth more [...]

Epic Failers and the Sound of Failure
Posted April 14, 2012 by Evan Goldaper

I’m speaking of course about last month’s article, in which I said that Mitt Romney was going to cinch the Republican’s nomination. This was a totally controversial view that obviously no one [...]
