I’m actually going to rant against nature: When you wash your car on Monday, and your car looks like a diseased chia pet due to the pollen on Tuesday, something is wrong.

Thank you, VSU, for showing movies to us for free in the Student Union. Keep them coming!

When did individuality become a crime?  It bugs me to see so many students clown people who they think are “weird� for having a unique sense of style. By unique I don’t mean the ones who mix-match leggings with sequins and cardigans. I mean the ones who have a passion for what they like (whether [...]

Student Union restaurants have slow service: Â
The Student Union hired a lot of student workers and a lot of staff to supply the Union but the service is very slow; especially in the middle of the day. You might find yourself waiting up to 30-45 minutes for your hamburger or pizza from The Loop. They might [...]

Rant of the Week
The construction has caused many problems on campus. Pathways, sidewalks and walkways are constantly being blocked off. Even though its purpose is to improve the school, it makes it very difficult to get around, especially when someone is rushing to class or to their dorm room. Students have to take detours and [...]

Rant
Unfair Registration
 Registering for classes last week based on classifications continues to be a problem on the VSU campus. The day students are allowed to register for classes is determined by how many hours the student has acquired in previous semesters. Student registration should be determined either by GPA or attendance. I have no sympathy for [...]

 Why do we have so many fountains on campus that are hardly ever in use? The only time I see the fountains on is during the summer, around the time of freshman orientation. I would like to think that the fountains are not just there to hook potential students. I know we were in a [...]

                I think it’s great that there are so many students taking interest in breast cancer awareness and domestic violence awareness this month. Things like the “Handprint Project� and “Saving lids to Save Lives� are two great ways to participate and show that you care. These are two pressing issues that are affecting more and [...]

Advising can be useful:
“I love advising and my advisor. I like it because my advisor is very thorough and makes sure I understand all my options. He gives me several options and also suggests things he thinks I would like personally.”

That’s what she said:
  I am so tired of people who scoff at That’s-What-She-Said jokes. Come on guys, lighten up and appreciate the fact that Chuck Norris jokes have almost completely faded from the scene. Relax and enjoy the disturbing visuals that accompany the best and brightest of the current fad. Don’t worry. It won’t last [...]

Rant
Losing Internet
  I don’t like the fact that the construction work is interrupting the internet connection in Odum Library.  Usually if you’re on the second and third floor IT will tell you to move to the first floor.

Good food at a later time
 I like the fact that Salsa Rico Mexican Grill closes [...]
