By the Editorial Board | Apr. 3, 2008It's sad to think that only a year ago this week, we were all still on a national-championship-winning high thanks to the UF men's basketball team. Despite the depressingly absent University Avenue celebration this year - and the corresponding embarrassing loss Tuesday to the University of Massachusetts that had us drinking for an entirely different reason - we soldiered on.

If he is part of the civic network at one location in terms of every other level of government, it should carry over to his participation in Student Government. Has someone asked to see Mr. Nagesh's voter registration card or checked with the Alachua County Supervisor of Elections Office?
