I have a strong held belief that only UC Davis students can properly make fun of UC Davis.

I <3 Female Orgasm

I <3 Female Orgasm
On Wednesday, the traveling sex education program spoke at UC Davis. Taught by a couple (who happen to be having a baby and are bisexual), Marshall Miller and Dorian Solot (a breast cancer survivor) speak to students about the ever-so-elusive female orgasm (and all the junk that comes with it). They cater to the not-so-hard-to-please college cro

Buses Are Sucking Lately

Buses Are Sucking Lately
Apparently there's something called the Bicycle Advisory Commission that helps out the whole Davis-being-a-bike-town thing, but nobody really cares.

What people are really wondering about is, "Where the hell is the ____ - line?" For some reason, there's been an epidemic of buses missing their stops; the J-line supposedly missed three of its bus

UCD Reminds Students Where They Are

UCD Reminds Students Where They Are
For some odd reason, UC Davis is going to paint its logos on their bike loops around campus. It probably has something to do about being proud of our bike loops, since we take so much pride that we're a "bike friendly" town, but honestly, it's pretty useless.

I guess they want to remind freshmen (who are the clumsiest at navigating through thes

UC Davis Launches A Nursing School

UC Davis Launches A Nursing School
It's all in the title: UC Davis has received $100 million (the largest grant ever in UCD history) to launch the Betty Irene Moore School of Nursing. The funding took about 11 years to gather, with a goal to "graduate nurse leaders, educators, and researchers who will make positive, long-term systemic impacts to health care in California and thro

Economics Helps You Fall in Love, Apparently

Economics Helps You Fall in Love, Apparently
Apparently there's a lecture on October 18th called "Discover Your Inner Economist: Lessons in Economic Imperialism," which is going to help you (quoted verbatim): "fall in love, survive your next meeting -- even motivate your dentist."

Every quasi-science professor thinks his field is the most relevant to everyday life and wants to justify it

Family Law Lectures About The Devil

Family Law Lectures About The Devil
On October 25th, the annual Brigitte M. Bodenheimer Lecture on Family Law will be held at UC Davis. The main topic of the series will be about the breakthrough human papilloma virus vaccine that is given to females to prevent some forms of cervical cancer. (But dude, seriously, do you live in a cave or something?) The big hoopla is that if paren

Freshmen Seminars: Still An (Unfunny) Joke

Freshmen Seminars: Still An (Unfunny) Joke
"Freshmen Seminars" are basically BS classes worth about 1-2 units. The non-freshman population has pretty much reached the consensus that these seminars are useless bullsh*t. Not only do they take up a lot of time (even though they emphasize how "easy!" the classes are), they spend all that time on meaningless assignments that, although stupid,

Spam That'll Scare the Bejeezus Out Of You
The Yolo County Sheriff's Department is starting a program that will offer a "sexual offender mapping system, an e-mail notification feature and postal notification." The program is called "Offender Watch" and it's meant to inform and educate Yolo county about its estimated 257 sex offenders.

On top of your bills, a postcard from your dentist s

Sexiest Occupation Finally Honored In Davis

Sexiest Occupation Finally Honored In Davis
Librarian Mary L. Stephens was honored last Tuesday by the Davis Branch Library for being Yolo County's number "top librarian." Apparently, she has been honored before, being named "Woman of the Year" back in 2004 by the state legislature.

It's unclear what exactly is takes to be a "top librarian." According to the article, she "has helped the

Finally, People Address the Awkwardness That Is Middle School

Finally, People Address the Awkwardness That Is Middle School
The Sacramento City Unified School District finally figured out that middle school is just about the fugliest time of our lives (emotionally and physically). They're going to start paying attention to middle schoolers, hoping to "improve education in the seventh and eighth grades," since it's such a crucial time in those little douches' lives.
