Apparently some people like Sunday mornings so much that they are trying to bring the experience to Saturday night through Club Glory, a Christian nightclub.
Grab your Magic 8-Ball and give it a shake.
It has been more than five months since the adminstration banned UF-related travel to Haiti for students and faculty, but it looks like the university is starting to loosen up a bit. It’s about time.
The professional athlete is no longer just an athlete. They have been labeled as role models, icons, champions and spokespeople, but there’s one thing they have never been labeled: businessmen or businesswomen.
When students were given the chance to decide on their school mascot, they chose the Gators. At least that was the case in Arkansas' Two Rivers School District after a school merger - and UF is not happy about it.
Last week, I began my list of seven important lessons for incoming UF freshmen. I mentioned the importance of living in the dorms, learning how to cook on a budget and studying with a purpose. If you missed last week's column, check out the Opinions page at alligator.org. This week, I continue with the fourth tip.
I am the agriculture teacher at a small rural school in Arkansas, and our school recently underwent a consolidation involving three schools into one school district.
Although I’m very happy to see the Alligator following up on the drinking ordinance, I’d like to clarify a few confusions. I said that I was going to try to work with the UF College Democrats and members of Student Government to see if we could get bipartisan support in opposing the ordinance, but I haven’t gotten the confirmed support yet. I wanted to clear this up because, as of now, these organizations are in no way associated with this opposition.
It is very sad how Student Government Productions runs its business. It brings an artist in for such large amounts of money that the people who want to see that artist can’t afford it.
Chances are more than a few students are stumbling into class after an all-night session of NCAA Football 11, which features Tim Tebow on its cover - sans eye-black Bible verse.
It’s not every day that people’s social security numbers get accidentally released. Well, actually it probably does happen every day, but usually UF isn’t involved.
It seems like every time we’re driving around town we see another video store going out of business, and it’s no surprise considering services like Netflix are streaming movies online for little more than the cost of two in-store rentals a month.
Baskin Robbins, Pizza Street, M. Isabella’s, Panera, University Book Shop, The Kansan, KU Catering. Over the past seven years, I have worked a part-time job at each of these companies. Some for as many as three years, and one I lasted just five hours.
The politics of the Dove World Outreach Center has left a vile mark on the Gainesville community. The Center’s recent protest against the Islamic Center of Gainesville, 1010 W University Ave., sent a clear message of hate, bigotry and sheer ignorance of the Islamic faith and the Muslim communities that work, study and raise families in Gainesville. Many laudable public events in Gainesville have encouraged and showcased interfaith understanding, such as the Children of Abraham Seder held last year. However, the Monday protest was a divisive occurrence demonstrating the need for community action.
Alligator,
Because entering college doesn’t come with an instruction manual like your iPad does, I thought I would impart a few quick-but-vital lessons to the newly arrived crop of UF students. Due to space limitations, I have broken this into a two-part series for this week and the next.
I was disappointed that Thursday’s article about free Wi-Fi at Starbucks failed to mention an important local coffee shop: Pascal’s.
I recall people on Turlington Plaza protesting UF parking. I am writing to encourage their demonstrations. I recently received a parking citation for my scooter. While I can say the citation (for sidewalk parking) is incorrect, I would also like to point out that I am the type of person who never breaks rules, no matter what. But through this ticket-receiving process I have witnessed with my own eyes how evil the UFPD parking enforcement is.
Skirt length. Lipstick. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Not generally things you would correlate with the stock market.
Your article about the federal tan tax addressed the concerns of small-business owners, but it did not convey the compelling, irrefutable scientific evidence that shows the use of indoor tanning beds can increase the risk for skin cancer.
