Don't Vote: For Democrats, Florida's primary won't matter
By the Editorial Board | Nov. 4, 2007Florida has a nasty little habit of screwing up elections. Even if you weren't old enough to vote (and most UF students weren't) in 2000, you certainly heard all about butterfly ballots, hanging chads and Katherine Harris.

By the Editorial Board | Nov. 1, 2007Ah, Homecoming weekend. The grills are lit, the RVs are parked, the beer is on ice. We'd be lying if we said we don't enjoy it. Even though Archer Road is more packed than a tin of sardines and our favorite bars are at capacity, we wouldn't trade this three-day weekend for anything.

Fee Freedom
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 31, 2007Graduate teaching assistants. They make up one of the most underpaid and overworked groups at the university. And now, instead of paying all their fees at the beginning of the semester, they want them deducted from their paychecks over the course of the semester, or even worse - done away with completely.

Student Government could do so much better
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 31, 2007So Student Government got Library West to extend its hours during exam week - one of the Gator Party's platform goals for this year, which party members will surely pat themselves on the back for and tout as a "tangible result."

Happy Halloween: We put local celebs into the perfect costumes
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 30, 2007No, there's not a Victoria's Secret show downtown tonight. It's Halloween, arguably college students' favorite holiday. Drink specials abound, costume contests bring out the best - or worst - in everyone, and of course, our favorite part: half-off candy tomorrow.

Crist: Hero or Horrible?
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 28, 2007Surprising no one, Gov. Charlie Crist approved a 5 percent tuition increase, a 5 percent technology fee and an automatic tuition increase based on inflation Friday.

Greek councils impose self-sanctions
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 28, 2007No catchy introduction, no attempts to be witty this time. We'll just come right out and say it: We're proud of the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Council.

Tricks & Treats
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 25, 2007The bats living near Lake Alice seemed a little more erratic this week, didn't they? The winds rustling the leaves of trees were a little bit creepier. And the moon is full tonight - don't be surprised if your hairiest friends go missing. Yes, it's that time of year again: Halloween.

More CLAS advisers needed
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 22, 2007It's UF's eternal problem. No, not too few season football tickets. Not Friday's crossword puzzle being too hard for you to finish during your chemistry lecture. Not when your professor schedules an exam for the morning after Halloween.

By the Editorial Board | Oct. 18, 2007Oh, what a week. We hope you're finally done with all your awful midterms, papers and the other stuff that's been keeping you from going out and having a good time. So take this weekend to sit back and have a few (or more than a few; we won't judge) drinks. Go on. You deserve it. Just make sure you're sober enough to read this week's intoxicating edition of…
