While drinking is undeniably the #1 college pastime, there are still plenty of other things college students do to avoid studying, reading or writing.
Today, we took a look at a longtime favorite of mine: the flash mob.
For the uninitiated, a flash mob is a group of people who gather at a specific location at a predetermined time and perform...
What do you get when you put a bunch of wooden pallets in an amphitheater full of Stanford haters? You get UC Berkley’s annual Bonfire Rally to kickoff Big Game Weekend.
Thousands of students packed in to Berkeley’s Greek Amphitheater tonight to call out chants, listen to alumni trash Stanford, enjoy the Cal Marching Band and Cheerleaders, an...
The 111th Big Game between Cal and Stanford is on Saturday, and everyone at Berkeley is gearing up for it. With festivities going on around campus all week, including the annual bonfire on Friday night, Cal Bears are ready to bring back the axe. Here are the top ten reasons for Cal to beat Stanford:
10. Still no Stanfordium.
9. I don't bleed r...
This is an important time in our country, and right now it is necessary for everyone out there to get involved and help make a difference. With the past election earlier this month our country faced a great injustice with the passing of prop 8 (or how it should be referred to as prop h8te).
Californians are uniting around protesting this disgu...
The Bike Church is in desperate need of our help. All the UC Davis students out there need to gather and help save one of Davis’s finest organizations, The Bike Church. If you haven’t heard, the Bike Church is about to be evicted from their headquarters unless they are able to raise enough money to pay their rent. This is a sad day for Davis ...
Not to put a damper on the post post-racial victory, but California is really sucking the big one right now. Looks like Proposition 8, the ban on gay marriage in California, will pass today. It’s at 52% approval to 48% disapproval, and there aren’t all that many votes left to count. Prop 4 results are also almost all in, and Californians have ch...
Okay, so you go to an uber-liberal school like UC Berkeley but your car is emitting enough crap into the air to start a whole new global warming crisis. You’re on the brink of waking up to demonstrators sitting in trees outside your dorm window to protest your environmentally hostile car. What do you do? Well, perhaps an air car could be for you...
UC Berkeley students were recently startled to find a huge Seinfeld bus on their campus. Evidently the bus was meant to promote the show, which is now in syndication. On the bus, UC Berkeley students could look at the Seinfeld MySpace and Facebook pages, while sitting amongst props and eating candy.
The Daily Californian reported:
A bus fille...
For all of you who thought the SAT and ACT really blew (or that you really blew it on the exams), good news: the National Association for College Admissions Counseling recently conducted a study which found that the standardized tests are not accurate ways to gauge the success of potential students (phew!). The NACAC discouraged the heavy relian...
Anyone that goes to UC Davis, or has ever been to the city of Davis, is aware of the fact that people love their bikes. I mean it is actually frightening how much people love their bikes.
On any given afternoon you can see the streets flooded with a wave of bikers cruising down the streets, but there is a special “biker” amongst the mere civil...
Earth Friend Gen has a shtick and she’s sticking to it. The Oregon woman is a nudist who rollerblades about saying, “Hello, I’m Gennifer Moss, Earth Friend Gen. I got by Earth Friend Gen because I love Mother Earth.” Earth Friend Gen recently asked the city of San Francisco if she could rollerblade nude in their July 4th parade but was turned do...
Today the world bids farewell to one of the greatest rockers of all time, Richard Wright, also known as Rick Wright. Wright was a founding member of the legendary band Pink Floyd, the stirrings of which began when he was a student at the Regent Street Polytechnic College of Architecture. Wright was a piano and keyboard prodigy, teaching himself ...
Protestor-monkeys at UC Berkeley left their tree yesterday after occupying it for almost two years to fight the decision of the school to cut down a redwood in favor of building a new athletic center. After the school built a structure to reach them at the top of the 90-foot tree, the four activists resigned themselves to ground level and were a...
Gawker reporter Hamilton Nolan has had enough of college newspapers and would probably only consider them useful if shaped into sanitary napkins. Much like media at large, print journalism at the college level has become an often unprofitable endeavor, at times constipated with journalistic seriousness, also known as static self-indulgent preten...
No matter how much Kant we read, no matter how much we learn about osmosis, no matter how many exams we take, college students still like a lot of stupid stuff. Maybe, like the process of osmosis, our brains seek equilibrium and so we like stupid things to balance out the excesses of academic life. Or maybe we just can’t help being a bit inane. ...
This past week, hot Georgetown University grad Mike Birbiglia performed his standup comedy routine at Tennessee State University. Though he has already performed on the David Letterman Show, the Conan O’Brien Show, and Comedy Central Presents, Birbiglia says that he truly enjoys performing on college campus tours, telling Sidelines Online:

If you think rap is all about banging hoes, crack, ****ing mother****ers up, and bragging, you obviously haven’t seen Kate McAlpine’s YouTube sensation, “Large Hadron Rap.” McAlpine, a 23-year-old Michigan State University grad student, wrote the physics rap about the Large Hadron Collider, a particle accelerator in the Swiss CERN Lab. It has al...
Today, just months after finally being able to marry her longtime partner Phyllis Lyon, lesbian rights activist Del Martin died. In 1955, Del helped form the Daughters of Bilitis, the first national organization for lesbians in the United States.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle:
Ms. Martin died this morning at UCSF Hospice, nearly tw...
Oh so you’re tired of hearing about weird creatures? Well, too bad, because the hobo spider has made its mark— on an unlucky Canadian woman’s leg.
According to the Winnipeg Free Press:
A summertime walk through a Winnipeg field left a woman with a gaping flesh wound - possibly caused after she suffered a rare bite by a vagabond poisonous spid...
Since December 1, 2006, diehard environmental activists have sat in a redwood tree by UC Berkeley’s Memorial Stadium in order to stick it to the man and protest the school’s decision to cut down a grove of redwoods to build an athletic center. Today Berkeley officials threw down though, cutting several limbs from the tree as the protestors swung...
