Holy Smokes!
A raging fire on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus left the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity house burnt to a crisp earlier today, reported The Capital Times.

Cheerleaders Gone Wild!
It’s a dark, sad day at Arizona State University.
Let us all take a moment of silence to commemorate the end of an era for a beloved school group: the ASU cheerleading squad.
You, ladies, will be remembered for your stunning athleticism, your never-waning enthusiasm and school spirit, the way you’d rally the crowds […]
There’s a Terrorist Club on Campus?
That’s the allegation being made on college campuses across the country by right-wing activist author David Horowitz and his “Terrorism Awareness Project.” Horowitz has published several ads in campus newspapers linking the schools’ Muslim Student Association chapters with the Muslim Brotherhood (“the godfather of al Qaeda and Hamas”) and claiming that their purpose is “to […]

To Tase or Not to Tase?
These days, mention the word “Taser” and most people will recall the “Don’t Tase Me, Bro!” incident at the University of Florida John Kerry forum, and the viral video that accompanied it. While that video was certainly good for a few chuckles, watching it now casts a more somber light […]

Since the Yale Daily News story broke yesterday and catapulted senior Aliza Shvarts to national infamy, there’s been enough he-said-she-said dispute between Shvarts and school officials regarding the legitimacy of her “art project” to fill an entire season of Jerry Springer (yeah, remember Springer? How’s that […]
Scandalous!
Oh, Baby! Oh, Boy!
Great art always pushes boundaries—propriety be damned!—and this penchant for the inflammatory has given us everything from crucifixes submerged in urine to sheep suspended in formaldehyde and now…plastic-wrapped aborted fetuses!
Later this month, Yale University senior, Aliza Shvarts, will be displaying her senior art project—a series of videos of her self-induced miscarriages […]
Scandalous!
Hell no, Rodeo!
I know what you’re thinking…people still hold rodeos? What is this? The Wild Wild West? But all joking aside, it seems I’m not the only one who finds this age-old cowboy tradition to be, well, just plain old, not to mention hopelessly outdated. Last week, students and faculty at University of Tennessee-Martin, protested […]
