We should reconsider renaming the Reitz Union
(09/25/18 9:38pm)
Six years ago, the Florida Dream Defenders put forth an action to change the name of the Reitz Union. This was in response to the not-so-new-found knowledge that ex-UF President Julius Wayne Reitz (1955-1967) was both incredibly homophobic and undeniably racist. This was met with antipathy by the white fraternity and sorority members of the Student Senate. The action was denied over claims it violated the Student Constitution. The Reitz family still contributes money to UF, which was a major influence on the Student Government’s dismissal of the action. This also shows money is more important than a student’s feelings of security and what is considered appropriate.

The Alligator endorses this party for Student Government elections
(09/24/18 12:55am)
There are telltale signs of the upcoming Student Government elections. Political parties prowl Turlington Plaza for undecided voters. Fliers are distributed. You may have even read about a certain SG sugar daddy or an increase in toilet paper quality.
The two-ply promise: SG toilet paper review
(09/20/18 8:18pm)
The toilet flushes, sending miniature droplets flying toward my face. Typically the distance between one’s face and the seat of a public toilet would suggest some sort of hazing, but hazing is against the rules here at UF so that means it doesn’t happen (aside from that one dude who almost died last Spring).

I am the Student Government sugar daddy
(09/13/18 11:54pm)
If you ever are unfortunate enough to be my friend on Facebook, you will often see me livestreaming Senate meetings Tuesday nights. It’s been a responsibility I’ve kept up with for the past couple months. It led up to last Tuesday night, when I went up in public debate and, via limerick, presented Student Government with an iPhone, so they can’t say they don’t have equipment for future livestreaming endeavors.
