Dave's is Moving!

Dave's is Moving!
Bigger, better location.
Drunk Munchies is getting a makeover.

Student favorite Dave’s Taverna is moving its Express location from next to Neighbors to the Duke's Liberty gas station.

This will give Dave’s Express its own location as opposed to sharing a cramped building with three other businesses. Not to mention it’s a quick walk from Fore

Bye Bye Bob Barker

Bye Bye Bob Barker
Bob's moved on, but not in that way.

After spending a Friday night blacked out in a basement party, nothing beats hanging out late on a Saturday afternoon to watch a marathon of The Price is Right.

But who's that with the microphone? That's not Bob!

Don't worry--Bob is still with us, he's just not on TV. It's pretty obvious the man is impervi

The Breeze Thinks You Should Keep Your Mouth To Yourself

The Breeze Thinks You Should Keep Your Mouth To Yourself
If you can't fly high then you might as well hate.

The Breeze, like it or not, has always been a narrow-minded newspaper that reports, well, carefully on school-safe topics. (That's where its funding comes from, right?) It usually takes a neutral or negative stance to vibrant, popular areas of campus life such as clubs, non-varsity sports, Gre

Were the Balls Taken Out of the Brew?

Were the Balls Taken Out of the Brew?
Only a taste test will tell.

Calhoun's, the Burg's local brewery, hasn't been the same since winning the blue ribbon at a local beer festival. After being sued by a Tennessee company by the same name, Calhoun's is now Cally's.

The new name takes the feel of the brewery and makes it, well, girly. Instead of sounding like you're going to a bar

Dynamite Under Main Street

Dynamite Under Main Street
Will it ever end?

Why did the construction on the new Main Street Tunnel just stop?

Due to some recent complications, now the tunnel needs to be dynamited. And well, let’s face it, the bottom half of the quad cannot be exploded when class is in session.

The last thing JMU needs is bits of Frisbees and hookahs strewn all over the place.

Mr. Belding's Back!

Mr. Belding's Back!
Everyone's favorite principal.

Mr. Belding and Danny Tanner have a never-ending (and never called in) bar tab at any college town across the great U S of A.

Richard Belding (real name Dennis Haskins) will make his way down to JMU this semester.

This September 12th, Belding will be in Wilson Hall.

Listen to what he has to say.  It's probably

Block Party Crackdown

                                     Not careful this weekend and this will be you.


Just when you thought the block party couldn't be suppressed anymore, the long arm of VA's law reached out to lend a helping hand while pushing your party into the mud.

New Spin on MP3s

New Spin on MP3s
The Player Apple Never Told You About
Fall means campus will once again be filled with students smiling when they cross each other's paths and striking up meaningful conversation with strangers walking briskly, eyes down and ear buds blocking out the noise of "reality." But for iStudents, the musical monopoly may be in jeopardy.

But believe it

Just Recovered from Your Last Addiction?

Just Recovered from Your Last Addiction?
A great way to pass the time during GenEds.
Well here's another to get you back on track.

The newest addiction in online games is no big budgeted "shoot-em-up" game with uzis blasting out of car windows. This obsession is a simple, small, pain in the ass called Desktop Tower Defense.  Try to beat the game by building towers to destroy "creeps"
