I may be a little too old to believe in Santa Claus, but I definitely believe that all those sweet ole’ Santas we find in our malls during Christmas time are all truly unique and different. Though some children get the pleasure of sitting on a nice old man’s lap as they spit out gift wishes for under the tree, some also get the pleasure of recei...
We all know holiday shopping for family and friends can be a real pain in the ass. But if you are looking for fun gifts for your friends in college or gifts for someone who still thinks they are in college, here are few gifts that are sure to be crowd pleasers. And the best part of this entire shopping extravaganza is that it can all be done onl...
After being cramped up in the library for hours at a time, little things that never used to annoy you suddenly reach the top of your list. Finals week is all about the race to the good table at the library or who could last the longest until the library decides to shut down. With only a few more days until the semester is over, the fight to fini...
In April 2008, Brittany Zimmerman, a 21-year-old University of Wisconsin student, was stabbed to death by an unidentified man in her off-campus apartment. Now, Zimmerman's chilling 911 tape suggests that the homicide could have been prevented if the 911 dispatcher had only acted sooner.
According to the police report, Zimmerman made a call to ...
Just like any other drug addiction that seems impossible to kick, reality T.V. takes over most of my life and I’m not just referring to the late night re-runs. I can never seem to get enough of Audrina Patridge’s sad face or the fact that I am slightly turned on by the overly tanned Bret Michaels. Any way they serve them, I am obsessed with anyt...
We love them. We hate them. But either way, we end up looking at them. College campuses are infamous for having a wide selection of beautiful people from all walks of life. Though some do better than others, college pictures are beginning to look like they would fit better in a magazine than on your facebook homepage. With thousands of schools t...
With school work, extracurricular interests and partying, students who have a job while going to school definitely deserve a round of applause. And if you are one of the lucky ones who actually like their job, there is even more of a reason to be envious. Though in the state of Wisconsin, job titles such as “diary farmer” and “cheese taster” are...
In a bizarre, but sad story, former University of Wisconsin defensive back Leonard Taylor Jr., 32, was charged yesterday with felony stalking and misdemeanor telephone harassment.
The athlete, who his dad says is mentally ill, has been threatening both the former Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez and tennis star Maria Sharapova. Deads...
Though our team won’t always pull through and we may sometimes feel more ashamed than proud to sport our school colors, at least we can regularly wear our school gear with pride, as we sport hues of red & white with a little Badger to match. Even though I did not know what a badger was until I arrived at school, I knew he was cute and would make...
Sometimes it’s easy to feel like college is a waste of time. Frequently I’ve considered the fact that a journalism degree is a bit silly considering I’d earn more as a truck driver than a writer. Then again, sometimes college is worthwhile after all, like at the University of Wisconsin Madison, where a bunch of undergrads found a new galaxy on t...
Now it may only be me, but going home for Thanksgiving this year does not feel the same as it did last year. My bags were packed and my boarding pass was printed in anticipation for warm California weather and reminiscing with old friends. But this being my senior year, thoughts crossed my mind that this might be one of the last flights I take ...
“Stop dancing with your girlfriend & come dance with me
Stop talking about your boyfriend since he is not me
Stop running up my tab cause these drinks are not free
You drunk & hot girl”
Kanye West (Drunk & Hot Girls)
There is nothing like a night out in Madison with all your friends, hitting the bars until 2 A.M. And if drinking with your fri...
“Man, I feel like a woman” – Shania Twain
Shania may feel like a woman, but I am happy to be one with guys like these
According to gossip magazines and T.V. shows, the best places to meet men in college are in coffee shops, your classroom and even the library. But if you are like the thousands of students who attend this school, you know you h...
The Perfect Spring Break
Though you may have just booked your ticket home for winter break, it’s already time to start planning that big break away from school and into the sun. I’m talking about spring break; the fun filled week where you and your friends travel off to a remote island filled with booze and boys in order to let off a little (o...
Like mother like daughter. Earlier this week, Kellyn Lindemann appeared on an episode of “The Girls Next Door” as part of her audition for the 55th edition of Playboy’s centerfold.
Lindemann, an Arizona State graduate, was shown topless (with the naughty parts blurred out… this isn’t HBO folks) and she wasn’t shy about it. But maybe that's bec...
We have all played the game “Would You Rather”. You most likely have stumbled upon the book in Urban Outfitters near the check out line and laughed out loud at some of the “would you rathers” they were throwing your way. And even though they rarely get old, they are always funnier when you get it but the person next to you doesn’t. So what bette...
If you consider yourself a daredevil and think you have done it all, you’re wrong! I’m sure there are a few things left on your list of things to do before you leave the place you have called home for the last 4 years. Here is a list of the top 10 things to do at the University of Madison Wisconsin before you graduate:
1. Try a brat and chees...
Was it everything you thought it would be and more? If so, you are most likely referring to your Halloween experience in Madison this past weekend, where dressing slutty was the norm and stumbling through the police force was completely acceptable. Halloween in Mad town is an utter shit show, calling all girls to wear non-existent skirts and men...
In an election already full of the accidentally absurd, The Onion provides some much needed intentional absurdity. And while this faux news source created by two students from the University of Wisconsin may not exactly be based on things like facts and reporting, that doesn’t mean they don’t stumble upon the truth every once in a while.
Just ...
In Madison, Halloween is one of the most awaited holidays to hit State Street. People from all over the world fly in to show off their most original ensemble as they try not to get arrested. If you aren’t feeling the spooky spirit yet, here’s a little something to get you in the mood. A few haunted drinks that are guaranteed to please, or at lea...
