We are now halfway through the spring semester, and it has been a tough academic year for two of the three revenue sports for the South Florida Bulls. These sports are football, men’s basketball and baseball —commonly referred to as “The Big Three.” The football squad finished with a dismal three and nine record while
A few weeks ago I was mindlessly browsing the racks of clothing at Forever 21 when it happened. A Nicki Minaj song came on. The lyrics of which were, “I’m on the floor, floor. I love to dance. So give me more, more, ‘till I can’t stand.” Poetry. Now I don’t know about you, but
Bar etiquette should be required with the privilege of drinking. After polling bartenders and witnessing first handedly the obnoxious behavior of drunken patrons, I figured I’d compile a list of the dos and don’ts: Don’t be the creepy guy that has to grind his way past a group of girls, sexually assaulting them to get
They were words we had used many times before. “We’re just a student newspaper.” This time, they were used to justify misspelling a professor’s name in three different ways throughout an article.

With many of the students going back and forth about the question of whether or not USF St. Petersburg should have Greek life on campus, we have heard a resounding “NO” from many students. However, I believe that most of the people who disagree with Greek life only see the negative connotations that it has
Feb. 6 was National Signing Day for college football. For those of you who don’t know, signing day takes place on the first Wednesday in February when high school seniors sign letters of intent to attend a certain college to play football there. I love college football, probably more than the next person, but I
There’s a bill in the senate asking members of Student Government to pledge their support for Greek life. It’s an unusual concept, as most senators have never experienced it. If there’s one argument I’m tired of hearing, it’s that “If you don’t like Greek life, you can just choose not to go Greek.” It doesn’t
I tend to say that a concert is the best one I’ve ever been to every time I go to one. But last night, things might have changed. A chance to see Jeff Mangum rewrote the meaning of the word “artist” for me. Anyone familiar with the ’90s music scene knows of Mangum’s band Neutral
