The All College Day mural is meant to be an open space for students to write grievances, words of praise, and general thoughts about the College community. Although the mural has the potential to bring about positive discussion, in its current state it does not do so effectively.

The amount of sensitive and personal data that we create on our computers increases as our reliance on computers increases: letters, embarrassing pictures, stories, financial data, and so on. Most people use folk methods to manage data on our computer, which goes something like this: if you want to delete sensitive data, delete it from the recycle bin, and it’s gone forever.

Hineini, a documentary about current Brown University senior Shulamit Izen’s fight to start a Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA) at the New Jewish High School of Greater Boston, is much more than a simple coming-out tale. It is a story of the moral quandaries faced by many teenagers and speaks to everyone who has ever confronted this barrier.

Where were you at 4 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 25? If you are a member of the Vassar College Track Club, you were running laps around Main building in the bitter cold.

Where does passion live? This is a question that has seemingly been answered by the good folks over in Torino, Italy. We in Poughkeepsie (P-Town, the P possibly being for Passion) beg to differ. What can we offer to support such a supposition? See below, my friends, see below.
