There were miscues aplenty in the Gators’ season-opening win against Miami (Ohio) on Saturday, but the most lasting image of UF’s struggles is the mishandled and errant snaps between center Mike Pouncey and quarterback John Brantley.
We’ve come an awfully long way since Geneva.
University Police Department Chief Linda Stump announced Tuesday she’s still awaiting an independent report from the consulting agency responsible for reviewing the UPD’s response and subsequent March 2 shooting of a UF graduate student while on campus. The editorial board has many concerns about the outcome.
After taking care of business in their first five matches of the year, the No. 7 Gators embark on their toughest match of the young season as they head to Tallahassee to face No. 5 Florida State on Friday.
The Gators’ quarterback summarized his team’s inept play rather simply.
The sheriff and the county commission are heading for a showdown.
Senators agreed to unanimously approve the 2011-2012 Activity and Service Fee Budget of about $16.7 million at their meeting Tuesday night.
On June 10, Thomas Maresco blogged about his excitement for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, where he would root for the USA while serving as a Peace Corps volunteer.
Changes might be in store for UF’s approach toward handling campus threats, including increased attention to threatening or troubling behavior from faculty and staff members.
I participated in the Interfraternity Council’s fall 2010 recruitment this past week. Now, as much as I’d love to say I entered into the process like Hunter S. Thompson did in “Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ‘72,” — a journalist looking for the scoop on a mystical and oft-misinterpreted process — that wasn’t the case. I was genuinely interested in finding a fraternity that would suit my needs.

Ray Bradbury’s “Fahrenheit 451” is required reading in many schools. I wonder if the Rev. Terry Jones has ever understood its message. A famous refrain in the novel about a fireman who doesn’t put out fires, but starts them, is that you “don’t face a problem, you burn it.” It is the utter stupidity of this approach Bradbury tries to address in his novel.

I have read the Dove World Outreach Center intends to burn copies of the Quran Sept. 11. This is profound ignorance, straight and simple, and it is hypocritical.
If you walked into UF’s West African Dance and Music class on Monday and Wednesday evenings, you’d see just what you’d expect — a class full of college students.
In his Thursday column, Bryan Griffin argues, “our country’s founding is inseparable from Judeo-Christian philosophies.” What Griffin fails to do is provide even one example of what a Judeo-Christian philosophy might look like, even though there are apparently several. As it stands, “Judeo-Christian philosophies” is simply a buzz-phrase.
Student Government party leaders were impressed with the turnout for slating Tuesday, which marked the final day of interviews for those hoping to run for SG positions.
