These last few weeks of class always drag on and on, don’t they? Final projects, final papers, final this and that and blah blah blah. But fret not, dear friends, for there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, and it’s all warm and pleasant and awesome. How are you going to spend your […]

A Fresh Dose of Optimism
David Leonhardt may have said it best: It’s time to work. I was fortunate enough this past week to host the New York Times reporter on campus this past week during his student discussion and at the Associates Dinner. Mr. Leonhardt writes a weekly Economics column in the Business Section of the New York Times, […]
The Red Room
They wore no shoes and their bodies shook and swayed. I stood up against a brick wall in a dark corner and silently stared, but I couldn’t help smile. The music swelled, the base was strong, and my blood pumped like an electronic synth machine with everyone else’s. I was at the Red Room on […]

There is some great tangible stuff that anyone could benefit from. Today, however, I thought I would write about something […]
Just let go and smile
I have this friend, Gigi, and she’s adorable, but somewhat controlling. Everything in her world has its certain place: making her room always clean, her shoes the perfect match to every outfit, and all her t’s crossed. While some call her an organizational freak and others call her ‘such a mom’, I like to think […]
The “Bad Guys” Story
Hulu – it’s the evil plot to destroy the world and it’s no secret. Obviously, as Alec Baldwin, Eliza Dushku, and Seth MacFarlane have been broadcasting the plot. But, what really is Hulu?
What’s with this Law School business?
Law School is a great option for students wanting to expand their education after undergrad. With many other things (i.e. finding a job, applying for grad school or medical school) it can be a long and strenuous process. With these steps, your quest of getting into law school might be a little easier. The LSAT. […]
