I will never ever ever ever ever stop eating at Chick-fil-A. I am a gay man, and Chick-fil-A doesn’t really like me too much, at least not in theory: the company’s charitable arm, the WinShape Foundation, gave almost $2 million to anti-gay groups in 2009, according to The Huffington Post [“Chick-Fil-A Fast Food Chain Donated [...]

Two weeks ago, strapping young geniuses named Stacy and Adam created a Tumblr called “Texts from Hillary,” pairing a dramatic black-and-white photo of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, with satirical texts she “sent” to public figures. In the wake of this Tumblr’s success, Clinton has enjoyed a resurgence of popularity with trendy, young eligible voters [...]

Nobody expects the end of days. I certainly didn’t. The signs were there, though. For the past four years, everything has, more or less, gone according to prophecy, and now the joke’s on us nonbelievers. Morals were relaxed. Plenty of disasters — natural or otherwise — happened. Thankfully, my crops were largely unharmed and the [...]

What’s college without a good party? The Zeta Pi chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., holds its Pajama Jam party every year. After hearing it labeled as “The Biggest Party in the Southeast,” I made it a point to go. It’s my first year here, and though I’ve been to an enjoyable Delta Sigma [...]

I am not a cog in a retrospective generation. I operate in one fraught with futurism, one mechanically — and, in a literal sense, virtually — interwoven. But for all its knowledge (and the ability to instantly acquire it), my generation holds a disparate void in history — both understanding of and desire to know [...]

It’s Friday night, and you’re about to go where the people are. Downtown, house party, whatever. There will be members of the opposite sex. Harrowing. You arrive in your best attempt at looking good without seeming like you’re trying — standard procedure for any social situation. You start by addressing any friends or acquaintances in the [...]

There is no phrase as annoying as “YOLO.” It ranks up there with responses of “k” or stating “LOL” after every post. The phrase has probably been relevant for a few months, but it has exploded everywhere as of late. It stands for “You only live once,” a phrase that has been around forever. But [...]

Journalism is a drug. It’s the ultimate voyeuristic pleasure. A peek into things unknown, peeling back the layers, peering into what is underneath. Following a story is like a treasure hunt. And getting the quotes and information, the pictures that make all the pieces come together is the rush that keeps me going. Each assignment [...]

Famous musical artists seem to let greed control their every financial move when booking shows, even when performing in a university setting for students. The university willingly paid a large amount of money — more than $40,000 — to entertain the famous rap-rock group Gym Class Heroes last week [“University paid $41,000 for Gym Class [...]

With last week’s announcement that Rick Santorum would end his campaign for the presidential nomination, Mitt Romney and conservatives across the country turned their attention toward the general election this November.
