Scrawl on the Stall

Feb. 27, 2008

Whether scribbled with a pen, scrawled with a pencil, scratched with a knife or smeared with… well, hopefully nothing is smeared… we've all seen outrageous, funny and sometimes disturbing sayings or messages written on walls that we've wanted to show someone else, but haven't because that would be totally awkward. Right? Well, now you can! If you see something legible written on a wall, a desk or any unusual surface, write 'em down and send them to dlow@alligator.org.

Air travel doesn't have to be a hassle

Feb. 27, 2008

Be careful when traveling by plane for Spring Break this year. I wouldn't want to hear about any UF students getting detained by airport security with any inappropriate substances or, better yet, getting kicked off the plane for being "too pretty."

Campus preachers should be ignored

By Valerie Garman | Feb. 27, 2008

I was told, "You are a woman, you have no voice," by a campus preacher on Turlington Plaza Monday afternoon. I was outraged. I was even more disgusted by the preacher's wife who stood in the distance saying nothing. I was also called a drunkard, a whore and a scantily dressed woman. I was pointed out by one of the preachers Tuesday while walking to class and bombarded with the same accusations. I was certainly not the only one.

By BRAD KNOTT | Feb. 27, 2008

With a recent sweep in the Potomac primaries, Sen. John McCain is moving closer to securing the nomination for the Republican Party. In sweeping Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., McCain dealt a huge blow to former Gov. Mike Huckabee, his last major opponent for the nomination.
