UF students won’t see Alachua County issues when they look at the general election ballot on Nov. 2 unless they’ve designated it as their legal place of residence.
Four high schools in Florida, Mississippi and Arkansas have been asked to end their use of UF’s alligator-head logo on their uniforms and merchandise.
Queen Elizabeth I was an unexpected political genius dedicated to her country and her people in a manner that had been seen in few monarchs before her. Stepping into her position as one of the first female heads of state, Queen Elizabeth I brought the English people through both domestic and foreign crises in determined strides.
Alcohol is the life-blood of the nightlife in Gainesville, lubricating our conversations and glossing over the things we wish to ignore. My mission was simple but by no means easy: Go out and try to enjoy a full week of what Gainesville has to offer after dark, without having a single drink.
It’s over.
Armed with a fistful of condoms and a slew of information, Condom Miranda will be making a visit to UF this Thursday to educate students one of society’s most taboo subjects.
The Philadelphia Daily News found itself in its own doghouse Wednesday when its main front-page headline for a story about the Philadelphia Eagles naming Michael Vick starting quarterback read “Top Dog.”

I’m a human, both in the literal sense Mr. Quinn defines in his column and in the Humans vs. Zombies game I participated in last week. The game provides harmless, alcohol- and drug-free entertainment to about 1,000 UF students.

If there’s anyone in this town that can go out night after night, get stupid-drunk and not die, it’s me. I’m Kat Bein, pro-rager and party journalist extraordinaire. My mission was easy: Hit the streets, get schwasted and meet people. Basically, do what I do every night, but do it harder.
From left to right: a woman, a man and another man, all holding hands. I thought it was a pretty interesting sight too, not necessarily because I was confused, but because I had never seen it before. I thought I never would either. Rather than walk up and ask for an interview, I decided to follow them. They reached the entrance to Library West and then all parted ways, so I sat down to think. Was that a genuine three- way relationship?
I agree with Sean Quinn’s column regarding Humans vs. Zombies. Players are far too intense and it reflects negatively on the school. I know another game where the same applies. A bunch of students wear pads, hit each other and chase a man with a ball. Most students get into the game and some even paint themselves! This barbarity reflects horribly on this school as a learning institution.
Florida coach Urban Meyer pointed to quarterback John Brantley’s ability to convert 3rd-and-longs against Tennessee as one of the positives to take from Saturday’s 31-17 victory.
If you open this year’s Florida volleyball media guide and turn to pages 27 and 28, you will come upon accolade after accolade after accolade and then some.
