tudent population deletes e-mails from Roger Williams University as if they were going to get a virus from them if they didn't. But on Sept. 28, we got an e-mail that nearly no one deleted. This "Campus Safety Advisory" spread like wildfire around campus and things haven't been the same since.
Is it best to keep things broad when you’re going abroad?
Although relationships in college can be complicated, they can also be perfect places to nurture loving, healthy romances. In high school, we got to see our boyfriends in the halls, and occasionally after school and on the weekends, but our time with them was mostly subject to parent-mandated curfews and limitations.
Well written, well directed, well acted
When I first saw the 1944 Tennessee Williams play The Glass Menagerie, I left with one thought going through my mind over and over: "This is why I want to be a writer." So naturally, when I heard that this favorite would be the first main season show at Roger Williams University's Performing Arts Center this year, I was quite excited; however, I was also a little worried that this production might not live up to my own mental standards set by the last production I had seen.
Since I started college, I've been exposed to the concept of a co-ed dorm. This entails that boys and girls sleep in separate rooms, but share the common room, the laundry facilities, and more importantly, the bathroom. I myself live in an all-girls dorm in Maple, so I don't have this exact situation: I have something much worse.
Occupy Wall Street
CHRISTOPHER MUNSEY "We are the 99 percent." This is the mantra of the new America, or at least I think it is. Since mid September, thousands of protesters have flooded the streets of lower Manhattan peacefully expressing their concerns over our country's financial woes.
Living life in Cedar
Living in Cedar is definitely interesting, to say the least. At first, I didn't think I wanted to live in Cedar because it was so loud and crazy, but I've learned to love it. How could anyone not love the thongs dropped in the hallway, the puke in the sinks and all over the toilets, the cramped showers that tend to flood the hallway (often), the music being blasted at three in the morning, the movie nights in the common room, and the other random shenanigans that happen in this wonderful place that 500 members of the freshmen class call home? I know it doesn't sound like a five star hotel, which it's definitely not, but all of these things are what make us love it in Cedar.
The documentary One Water was screened at the School of Law on Oct. 10, as part of the Inauguration Week 2011 events. I assumed that this was chosen to exemplify the "Learning to Bridge the World" university motto, which made the movie a good fit, I have to say.
