Even The Biolab Tests Fail The Tests

Even The Biolab Tests Fail The Tests
If only there was a category on OTR for "Horrific Impending Bio-nuclear Accident"...

As it turns out, that whole risk analysis study that said it just be a swell idea for BU to build a biolab in the middle of Roxbury - you know, the one that most sane people mocked as being ridiculous on its face - w... MORE »

Before "Before The Devil"

Before "Before The Devil"
What's the minimum amount of time someone has to spend at BU for them to be considered an alum? I know Marisa Tomei didn't graduate from here, but I'm pretty sure she spent a year here - or at least took a tour at some point. That counts, doesn't it?

Because Who Knows More About Ugly Buildings Than BU

For the record, I like Silber. I think the dislike of him, largely dying down as the years go on and incoming classes have no memory of him, is largely overblown. I also didn't say that he built or oversaw the construction of the Law building. Just that it's ugly. Which it is. But, the low alumni giving rate is totally unconnected to some of his actions and more controversial remarks, either. So, was he good for BU? Yes. Was he also bad for BU? Yes.

That being said, please see below:


joke /dʒoʊk/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[johk] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation noun, verb, joked, jok·ing.

Because Who Knows More About Ugly Buildings Than BU
Well, former BU supreme commander John Silber has a new book out, and guess what he's angry about? No, not the gays. Not heathen college students who can't stop ****ing long enough to read the complete works of Kant. The subject that has Silber especially wrinkly: ugly buildings!

Don't Non-Idiots Celebrate, Too? Where's The Coverage of That?
In case you missed it, the Red Sox finished embarrassing the Rockies on Sunday night, and newly-born baseball fanatic college fans started embarrassing themselves to celebrate.

Obama: Give Hope A Rest
Barack Obama came to Boston Common this evening to bring his platform of hopefulness abroad and hopefulness at home to the people he needs to win over the most...overprivileged college kids?
