When I saw on Monday that the third floor of Rinker hall would be required to pay $3,000 each for damages, I was flabbergasted.
Good for the anthropology department for defending diversity and minorities. What could be more diverse and be a smaller minority than a reckless-driving professor who attempts to exchange drugs for gay sex near a church? Shame on UF for reinstating such a creeper.

While I believe that Neal Wheeler has the kernel of a good idea in his letter to the editor, he becomes increasingly more ignorant as the piece goes on. His idea that the government can't be counted on to fix everyone's problems is very true. The government can't, in fact, fix everything. Perhaps the government has tried too hard in the past to fix all the problems in American society, but this doesn't extend to health care.
Mr. Wheeler makes an excellent point. If you can't afford health care, don't go running to the government to solve your problems. Just get on Medicaid!

It's been a busy week at the Alligator (go figure). Just when we thought exams were over and all was quiet on the West University Avenue front, another parade took us by surprise. This time, it was a festival of suck that hit us like a dump truck loaded with your neighbor's rotten Wu-Tang pumpkin that he carved way too early and allowed to marinate in the sun...
It's time to turn back the clocks again.

Kyle Maistri is still fuming about the money he (would have) lost (if we condoned gambling here in the alligatorSports Brand Picks Column but we don't, so he isn't) because of Washington last week. And there are few things that Mike DiFerdinando loves more than Jake Locker and UW football.
The top of the Southeastern Conference is now muddled.
Members of UF's Model United Nations and students linked themselves through their support of global cooperation among nations Thursday.
A UF engineering student will appear on an episode of "The Price is Right" airing Friday morning.

UF B.F.A dance majors Courtney Baron, 21, and Olivia Ruggieri, 20, pass out flyers at lunchtime at the Plaza of the Americas. Ruggieri dressed up as an orchid to promote the B.F.A Dance Showcase, which will take place at the Constans Theatre from Oct. 29 through Nov. 1.
