With the college football world standing on its ear and the Southeastern Conference more tangled than Joakim Noah's hair, there should be some pretty interesting bowl matchups this year.
To the UF community and The Gator Nation the world over,
So Andrew Meyer apologized.
I am writing in response to Friday's article "Protest group has 'washed its hands' of Taser incident." Concerning Ben Dictor's statement regarding the use of Tasers on campus, I would feel unsafe if the only weapons a police officer had access to were a gun or a blunt object.
This is in reference to Mike McCall's glorification-of-violence column Thursday on the Florida-Georgia game: Excuse me?
A few nights ago I experienced MTV's "A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila," a show many of my acquaintances hold in high esteem. I am just as guilty of watching my fair share of "reality" TV, but something about this show sparked a feeling of disgust. Disgust, that is, with what our society is turning into.
Surprising 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.
JACKSONVILLE - Just when the Florida-Georgia rivalry had become staler than movie-theater popcorn, Georgia made sure the Cocktail Party was extra lame for the Gators.
Man, I feel like a woman.
It was apparent to me when Georgia scored its first touchdown, one of which I still have my doubts about, that part of what the Southeastern Conference has stood for in its 75 years has been almost completely vanquished.
No 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.
I am replying to "Students wear holsters to protest" from Friday's Alligator. I understand many students might think twice about allowing concealed weapons on campus.
While I can understand why Mr. Duffey - acting president of disgraced Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity, which is suspended through 2011 - does not understand the embarrassment Zeta's function brought to our university, I don't see how anyone else can miss it.
I am not affiliated with any Greek organization; I am, however, an alcohol awareness speaker for universities statewide and a UF junior.
In a shocking development, one of UF's Greek chapters has done it again. As Ben Franklin once put it, "In this world nothing is certain but death, taxes and UF Greeks getting into trouble."
How I wish I cared about the supposed rivalry between UF and Georgia.
The 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.
While I understand that it is a great accomplishment for a sorority to donate thousands of dollars to breast cancer awareness, this does not cancel out the fact that the Zeta women (or their dates) caused damage to a cultural icon in Tampa.
No one should be surprised at the Florida Department of Law Enforcement's report on the recent Tasering of Andrew Meyer at UF.
The fact that Zeta's national office has offered to pay for the damage caused at the Columbia Restaurant does not reflect a "common ideal of responsibility," as stated in Mr. Escribano's letter.
