Media sensationalization predictable

Concerning the Wednesday column by Joshua Lee: I find myself in agreement with the statement that “the media sensationalizes stories and fabricates a world that is exponentially more perilous than the one we live in.” However, such a statement contains information that is common knowledge.

Correction

Wednesday’s article “Student Senate discusses crisis response” said no counselors from the UF Counseling Center came to the scene of the March 2 shooting of UF graduate student Kofi Adu-Brempong. According to Sherry Benton, the director of the UF Counseling Center, counselors came to Adu-Brempong’s apartment 20 minutes after the shooting and stayed until 1:30 a.m.

Could the “Can you hear us now?” editorial be any more whiney? The role of a misunderstood, whine-aholic college student who completely denies that anyone older than 30 actually cares about what he or she thinks is almost as annoying as it is pathetic.

Perfect page turners for all

Nothing is sexier than intelligence. OK... and Channing Tatum—but that’s beside the point. So, why don’t you grab a book this summer while lathering up for some serious sunbathing? No one is suggesting you bust out that dreadful book you got two birthdays ago from Grandma. Instead, catch up with these reads to cool you off—and to distract you from that horrendously loud family on the towel to your left. The following books are perfect for relaxing by the pool, flying across the country or on a rainy Florida afternoon.

Mixing liquor and beer makes explosion

When you finish your final tests and papers, it’s important to start your end-of-semester celebration the right way. Start it off with bombs. Bombs are an easy way to take simple ingredients, most of which you already have, and transform them into an exciting, entertaining drink.
