My convenient laptop job
Posted on 03. Mar, 2010 by Stephanie Osmanski.
In recently noticing a significant depletion in my financial situation, my first response was to whine to my parents. As I begged them to deposit another couple hundred dollars into my lowly bank account, all the while proclaiming the difficulties of money management as a college student, I wondered how much more fulfilling I would feel if I could earn the money myself.

The skinny on QU girls
Posted on 24. Feb, 2010 by Lindsay Roberts.
There are plenty of stereotypes for Quinnipiac girls. We all own a BlackBerry, the standard brown UGG boots and a North Face. Our lives would be incomplete without Toad’s. Describe us as bitchy, slutty or cliquey, and I could come up with plenty of arguments to shoot you down. However, I have found one descriptive word that fits a large proportion of Quinnipiac girls: skinny.

Former skinhead is ‘living proof’
Posted on 17. Feb, 2010 by Christine Burroni.
I left Alumni Hall Monday night in awe of what I had just heard. Out of complete curiosity, I had attended the Student Programming Board’s event, “Confessions of a Recovering Skinhead,” and not knowing what a “skinhead” was, I wasn’t sure what to expect going in. Walking into the room at 7 p.m., many seats were taken, but I managed to find a seat right in the middle.

During the opening words of Eugene Robinson’s lecture to a crowded Alumni Hall last Wednesday, the Pulitzer Prize winner said, “Anyone who doesn’t believe we have progressed ought to be here now.” And if you look around at our world today, you can’t help but agree with that statement.

Our sports teams deserve better
Posted on 03. Feb, 2010 by Tim O'Donnell.
The Quinnipiac men’s ice hockey team went down 2-0 to Niagara on Jan. 22 in the first five minutes of the game. After the second goal at least half of the student section got up and left. Five minutes into the game and you’re already leaving? It’s outrageous and shouldn’t happen, but it does and it needs to stop.

There’s no place like…college
Posted on 03. Feb, 2010 by Phil Nobile.
Everyone loves a vacation. And after about three weeks of nonstop work, stress and tests, I would say a vacation was needed. Then why, when I was finally home with old friends, family and house did I want nothing more than but to come right back to my four-man Commons room?
