Protests inevitable for Kevorkian's speech
By the Editorial Board | Oct. 1, 2007By now, you've probably seen the e-mail sent by UF President Bernie Machen about the slight delay for Dr. Jack Kevorkian's Accent-sponsored speech, which has been moved to Jan. 15.

Actually, the only reason we had time to write this is because our Spice Girls' CD is skipping, so we're giving the old boom box a break.

Darts & Laurels
By the Editorial Board | Sep. 20, 2007It would be an understatement to say we're glad it's Friday.
