Classes Continue During Memorable Inauguration

During one of the most memorable occasions of our lives, Syracuse classes were not canceled. This was shocking to students as Syracuse prides itself on being a school exceptionally responsive to current events and world affairs, especially those that will undoubtedly change the course of our daily lives. Even as a freshman in my first communicat...

Even with only a week until the last day of classes, students made sure to get their holiday decorations up. Lights hung on the perimeter of houses and the glow of Christmas trees through apartment windows light the grim streets of Syracuse.

The Happiest of Hours

The Happiest of Hours

The best thing about Friday’s, other than no classes (for me, at least) is happy hour: the happiest of all hours. Relaxing with your friends, several pitchers, and a deck of cards has got to be the best way to wind down after a long stressful week of working and forcing yourself out of bed to that dreadful 8am class. While Thursday typically kic...

Campus Relationships Gone Bad

Campus Relationships Gone Bad

When is it ever a good idea to be in a relationship on Campus? As a senior, I have yet to hear of one successful, healthy relationship. With such a small pool of prospects, it has become increasingly difficult to find a guy without ties to at least five other girls, for starters. When the impossible does happen and you end up in a consistent fli...
