I am very grateful for Knoxville, Tenn. It has a great library, tons of delicious and exotic food, and a lot of the plays and movies that we simply can’t bring to Cookeville. They once had Nightwish there! All the way from Finland! And it’s not an unreasonable distance away […]
This campus has always been beautiful and one of the greenest campuses around the state. Well, at least it did until this past year. I left for Florida just before Spring Break, looked over at the Bryan Fine Arts building and had flashbacks from my childhood about the beautiful trees […]
Sarah Dingwall’s string of articles, at least as long as I’ve been reading it, have been nothing but radical Christian rhetoric and thinly veiled fundamentalist proselytizing. Her latest article, a non-story about a man banned on Facebook for homophobic comments, only confirms this while further ingraining negative stereotypes about her […]
I’m sorry, Tennessee. I spoke in haste. You are NOT the most ridiculous state in the union, nor the one with the most INSANE laws. Where Tennessee pushed “Turn Away the Gays” back into committee, where it will hopefully die, Arizona has let it go before the governor. But more […]

(www.nasa.gov) As for calling to question the moral fiber of […]
Valentine’s Day is a day of love, chocolate, roses, rings, and basically everyone telling you how useless you are because you are single and don’t have someone in your life to “buy” you things. I have never had a Valentine or someone ask me to be his, but this has […]
The popular song “Thrift Shop” includes phrases such as “popping tags” and “wearing your grandpa’s velour suit.” Although students at Tech do not usually wear velour suits, they are shopping to get the most bang for their buck. It is a way of life for the typical Tech student to […]
We’ve all been there – the 1000-level classes seating at least 30 people, if not closer to a hundred, studying the basic introduction to some subject we may not even need for our major. For some, it’s classes like Algebra, or Writing 1010. For me, it’s zoology. Two hundred underclassmen […]
