The donation meters set up to raise money for the Alachua County Coalition for the Homeless and Hungry have failed.
You can't spell "disgusting" without SDS.
Let's talk about virginity.
In case you didn't realize, climate change is a pretty big deal. So big a deal that Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to raise awareness about global warming. He shares the prize with the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
I am writing this message as a member of the search committee for the dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. We would like to invite you to an open forum Oct. 17 at Library East in Room 1A from 10 to 11 a.m. to solicit your ideas and opinions on this search.
I read Colleen Shea's column Friday, and she wrote about how she is a college sophomore and still a virgin. So what? Still having your V-card is not something to be ashamed about. I just got married this summer. I was a virgin until my wedding night.
Remember the time when you wanted Subway, but you didn't have any cash on you, so you starved? I do. Thankfully, Kevin Reilly changed that with "tangible results," and now Gators can use their credit and debit cards on campus. And didn't you give Student Government a LAUREL for their "tangible results" when it installed more blue lights on campus? Do you know who the chairwoman of that committee was? Kellie Dale. While her friends were out having fun, she was doing walk-throughs on campus with the University Police Department.
Friday was a busy day for the Florida Legislature. But at least it threw UF a bone - a ,4.8 million bone. UF expected to see its budget cut by ,26.9 million, but the Legislature only cut ,22.1 million.
When people think of college, they probably think of a smorgasbord of sex. Education comes to mind too, but we college students live in an environment where sex is constantly on the brain.
I would like to apologize to UF fans, your football team and staff and Tim Tebow on behalf of the city of Baton Rouge. The classless things done (the cell phone incident) and said (I'm sure there are too many to say) are not a representation of Louisiana State University or its fans.
Blah. That's how this week has been. We're all hitting that mid-semester slump. Midterms have turned us into hermits. Papers have us gnawing our pencils. Starbucks has probably sold more cups of coffee this week than all the previous weeks of this semester combined. And sleep? What's sleep? Maybe we'll finally find out this weekend. Hopefully your exams are coming to a close and you can clear those textbooks off your bed so you can, you know, sleep on it. But for now, take a five-minute study break for this week's high-stress edition of…
After the changing of the guard in the Student Senate, we now have another Gator Party insider attempting to implement the party's failed agenda.
When I read the article "City OKs request for plant proposals," I couldn't quite get the grin off my face.
Which do you want first, the good news or the bad?
Today would be a great day for you to reevaluate how you think about the people around you. What if you found out today that one of your friends were gay? What if your cousin told you he or she were transgender?
The Alligator made a very real contribution to UF's sports culture with Tuesday's article "The Family Business." Although football has rightfully maintained its cherished position at the epicenter of Gainesville life, the city and the school can only benefit when any one of the cadre of talented female athletes who represent The Gator Nation at the track or in the pool or on the volleyball court, soccer pitch or softball diamond receives deserved and positive attention.
Today was a bad day. I failed another assignment. I missed the bus and got caught in the rain. I argued with my family. I stubbed my toe. The Reitz Union Food Court was out of spicy sushi rolls.
Add it to the list of things you thought you'd never have to pay for in college: a new technology fee.
I would like to offer some supplemental information about Students for a Democratic Society's transparency and socially responsible investment campaign and our recent meeting with UF President Bernie Machen.
It appears that being president of Student Senate wasn't enough for him. Now that Robert Agrusa has ended his term for Student Government, he's moving into real-world government. Or at least the Gainesville City Commission.
