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...
The fine hippies over at StopTheDrugWar.org are furious with President-elect Barack Obama.
Why? Because he doesn’t plan to legalize marijuana in the foreseeable future—if ever.
Their red-eyed outrage began with Obama’s homepage, Change.gov, which solicited questions from Obama supporters and determined the popularity of each one based on the...
Recently Keauna McLaughlin and University of Colorado student Rockne Brubaker have been making headlines for their figure skating victories. The American team is coached by Dalilah Sappenfield and MCLaughlin’s mom Lei’lna. Mostly recently, they garnered attention for their performance at Skate Canada, for which they won silver medals.

Perhaps your idea of a football fan is a gun-toting, beer-guzzling, nacho-eating republican slob, and while that may be true some of the time, CU Boulder is doing its best to change that stereotype. Now football fans attending Colorado Buffaloes games will find compost and recyclables containers rather than trash barrels, as the school tackles a...
Last night a man was arrested for his involvement in a car crash which killed an eighteen-year-old Arizona State University student, Nora Risha. Risha’s car was hit by another car which had run a red light, and two other teenagers were gravely injured.
A man has been arrested in connection with a four-vehicle accident t...
Yesterday Michelle Obama spoke at UC Boulder and urged the crowd at Farrand Field to vote (preferably for Barack Obama) in the presidential election. Appealing to the concerns of working families and students, she addressed personal hardship in the lives of herself and her husband. After the speech, Colorado resident Charles Garcia told the Rock...
UC Boulder is joining forces with city officials to distribute information on “smart party” tips. Smart party? Can we say “oxymoron”?
To be fair, perhaps at Boulder they haven’t got a copywriter, but “smart party” is about as a appealing as making out with Adnad Ghalib, the former crazy and histrionic boyfriend (well, one of them) of Britney ...
The WVU-Colorado game last night was a huge disappointment for WVU football fans. Hoping to redeem themselves after getting crushed by East Carolina last week, the Mountaineers fell short, losing their second game of three this season.
Aric Goodman made a 25-yard field goal in overtime to give Colorado a 17-14 vi...
I'm all about hating the ref as much as the next guy, but I actually feel bad for 19-year veteran Ed Hochuli. He recently blew a whistle too enthusiastically on a fumble during a San Diego Chargers/Denver Broncos game. The call was blatantly wrong and it ended up costing San Diego the game. Since then, Ed's been flooded with vicious hate email f...
The stereotypical college student subsists on Ramen Noodles, Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, and fast food. Now, Don Gorske, a McDonalds fanatic, is publishing a book covering his McDonalds exploits. Gorske was featured in the documentary film Super Size Me, in which he admitted that once when paid $5 to eat a Whopper, he spent his winnings to buy a ...
Last night John McCain accepted the republican nomination at the Republican National Convention. Now, we want to know, How did you feel about McCain's speech?
There’s no such thing as a free lunch, but apparently there is such a thing as a free $600 million. In 2004, Eli Broad launched a joint initiative with Harvard and MIT to find solutions to genetically inherited disorders called the Broad Institute. Establishing the Broad Institute cost $100 million, but Broad contributed another $100 million aga...
Inside the Pepsi Center, the DNC delegates are treated to inspiring speeches from important political leaders. Outside the Pepsi Center, Colorado State students are treated to piles and piles of garbage.
During the four-day convention, more than 460 student, staff and faculty volunteers sort through trash and separate the recyclable from the ...
Calling all linguistics majors, WTF were they (they meaning whoever comes up with organism names) thinking when they named the camel spider? Neither a camel nor a spider, but a combination of a spider and a scorpion, the camel spider is also called the sun spider and the wind scorpion. If you want to be legit, call it a solpugid.
According to ...
With the Democratic National Convention in full swing, everyone’s focused on the politics. We’ve heard about the issues, the speeches and the rivalries.
But what about the really important stuff – like how does this momentous political event affect the area college students?
Don’t worry, U.S. News and World Report has got us covered. Accord...
The Democratic National Convention, also known as Obamapalooza 2008, kicks off later today in Denver, Colorado, and the College Democrats of America are excited for what will be a week of democratic unity and Barack Obama loving.
For the uninitiated (i.e. the College Republicans), the convention is scheduled to run until Thursday when the part...
Sure you’ve heard of students being expelled for plagiarism, but professors?
Dr. Theresa Cameron, the first African American woman to be awarded tenure at the Arizona State University’s College of Design, alleges that she was falsely accused of plagiarizing her syllabi, which led to the termination of her tenure and employment. She was fired b...
All summer, college admissions counselors have been reading admissions essay after admissions essay. There are loads of Mighty Ducks-like underdog stories, Pretty In Pink-like wrong side of the tracks kid makes it happen stories, and Save the Last Dance-like following the dream stories. Amongst the less narrative essays, there are explanations o...
I can smell the sweet stench of cannabis already. It looks like Hollywood is going green, grass green that is. With the recent premiere of Pineapple Express, another movie has been added to the long list of stoner movies. Is it really that funny to watch tripped out belligerent fools as films' protagonists? Absolutely!
Here’s OTR’s comprehensi...
NCAA claims their hands are tied. Despite pressure to ban beer ads during NCAA games, the organization has decided to let their current policy stand.
