Chronicles of woeful 8

The Daily Northwestern, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL

10 hours ago by Jesse Sleamaker

A few weeks ago, the Northwestern Chronicle sent an e-mail petition to student group leaders requesting agreement with a statement condemning the Iranian government. Leaders were given a week to respond or have their opinion listed as "having not agreed." The e-mail was underhanded and manipulative, and is all-too characteristic of Chronicle reporting.

Two weeks ago, my friend and I were discussing the idea of religious taboos. He and I are both Hindus, where in our religious tradition, the eating of beef, among other meats, is restricted. This reminded me of a similar taboo that Muslims are well aware of - eating pork.

Chicago Flame, University of Illinois, IL

17 hours ago by Tatianah Green

Nearly a generation ago, our parents and undergrads at UIC were wearing fashion of a questionable nature. In the late 1980s, both men and women channeled their inner rockers like the guys from the group Poison and wore acid-wash jeans, large ripped jeans that were a little loose on the body.

The 2008 Annual GSB Hot List

Chicago Business, University of Chicago GSB, IL

2 minutes ago by O-Face and Ugly Betty, '08

The Hot List, the most controversial article of the year, is here. You love it, you hate, but either way, you read it. No one knows how long the GSB has been doing the Hot List, although in ancient times it was called the "Hottie Hot Tub List." This year we had record participation with almost 250 votes, which is at least 25 times the typical ChiBus readership and represents a massive proportion of the student body if one corrects for people who have no sense of humor.

Several things are associated with the first weekend of May: significantly improved weather in Chicago, midterms, No Pants Day, and most importantly, Louisville's Kentucky Derby. From Thursday morning through Friday afternoon, RVs frequented the streets of Hyde Park outside the Harper Center as 60+ proud GSBers departed for the citywide festival that meshes horse racing, multi-millionaires, mud wrestling, elaborate towering hats, and porta-potty races into one cohesive spectacle.

The Harley factor

Royal Purple, University of Wisconsin, Whitewater, WI

6 days ago by Jake Zinsli

I asked myself the other day, why don't more kids my age own a Harley-Davidson motorcycle? Are they just too expensive? Does nobody my age know where to buy one? Or do people just stereotype them as being an older generation bike?

SCORCH: Letter to the Editor

Torch, Roosevelt University, IL

5 days ago by Jenny Halloran

Dear Scorch,

So I went to the Illinois Institute of Technology's "Sausagefest 2008" on April 18 as advertised in this publication and I totally want my money back.

I guess this whole festival was for some charity for leukemia and lymphoma or something, but like, if you're going to throw something called "Sausagefest," you've really got to make clear the type of "sausage" that's going to be available.
