In the university environment, having a core group of friends is imperative to good will and having a fun time. When you apply your real friends to Facebook, a good 20 to 30 fill your friends list. Then comes everyone else: these are the people that make up your numbers and if you want to [...]

I love this time of year: The weather cools, and I can finally start playing Christmas music without society labeling me an unappreciative social pariah. Unfortunately, all too soon do I forget the holiday that comes before the birth of Jesus, and that illustrious day is Thanksgiving. This is the holiday for which we celebrate [...]

College students, let’s face it. You won’t be working after you graduate, because there aren’t any jobs. You’re really concerned about this, because you don’t know what else you could do to replace all those grueling long hours of playing Angry Birds (or maybe Solitaire… if you’re one of those people without an iPhone) in a crappy [...]

You may have been told that the phenomena we know today as rap music began in the late 1970’s. Unfortunately, somewhere along the way, the true history was lost. Kept out of textbooks and censored from our fragile ears. Lucky for you, the Deadbeat is the only one who’s got the facts… 2,012,000 B.C. [...]

Students, we all know that the economy is, well…a steaming pile of shit right now. Stocks are all over the place, it seems like there are no jobs, and we’re all worried where we (okay, maybe our parents) are going to get the money for that next tuition payment. Naturally, this means that we as [...]

It’s not easy being green. Just ask John Grimps, freshman in LAS, who has struggled at acclimating to dorm culture. ”At first I thought it was living in the Six Pack, and not fitting in with the alcohol scene,” Grimps said. “But the artists hate me just as much.” A change of pace was recommended [...]

“What’s on your mind?” This seems like a simple question and it should have a simple answer. So, why is it so many of you make it harder than that? To you, the little update box on Facebook isn’t somewhere to share a funny line or anecdote, but a place where you can whine, cry, [...]

Though it’s been a mere two years after over twelve people had publicly declared their run for the presidency, as of press time, no potential GOP hopefuls have officially announced their plans to run for the presidency. In an interview with “Good Morning America,” Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney, three of the most [...]

One conquistador named Cortés (known as virtually the only historical figure in English history books to get an accent mark in his name) ended up in Mexico. The non-lethal Aztecs who had just finished viciously conquering the area thought the Spaniards were gods. Cortés encouraged the rumor, presumably after hitting his head on a rock [...]
