USF Tampa goes tobacco free

New rules, new game.   You may or may not have noticed one of the university’s latest updates when you log into MyUSF: “Starting January 4, 2016 TOBACCO FREE CAMPUS.” I remember looking at this puzzled: Isn’t the school already tobacco free? I later found out it was only covering the USF Tampa campus, which

I went to a Donald Trump rally

A face-to-face encounter with the unconventional, yet conservative candidate.   Sarasota, FL—I went to a Donald Trump rally. And it was exactly what I expected. I didn’t go as a reporter. I didn’t have a press pass. I didn’t get any special seats. I went as a guy with a DSLR camera and tickets to

The lead up to the game was focused on achieving bowl eligibility, playing a ranked team and the chance to potentially play for the conference championship. Many believe this was one

On Nov. 2, a University of Missouri graduate student, Jonathan Butler announced he would go on a hunger strike until UM System President, Tim Wolfe, resigned from his position. Butler and other protesters called for Wolfe’s resignation claiming that he did not adequately respond to racial incidents on campus. According to the Columbia Missourian, Butler

The day I (kinda) stalked Emeril Lagasse

Yeah. You read that right. I’ve officially started my full-fledged, downward spiral into foodie psychosis. I hunted down a famous chef and food personality and (somehow) I was successful.
