Richmond tradition calls for the election of a homecoming king and queen every fall. All the nominees compete in a gameshow and help serve treats during a dinner at the dining hall. Facebook “likes” also aid in the homecoming court battle.
In a society that is becoming increasingly more digitalized by the day, news organizations flood the email inboxes of their readers. Notifications of different story headlines are distributed via several media sources, making an effort to grab someone’s attention.
You go to Heilman Dining Center at least once a day. You go there to have breakfast, lunch, dinner or even all of them. You take your tray with you once you’re done. But inevitably, you leave some trace of your meal behind. As you approach the exit, you remember the drops of guacamole all over the table and you decide to turn around and go back to your table — and there they are.

We are sending this open letter to The Collegian to address an issue that concerns us all. We have learned that the U.S. is sending 3,000 military troops to Africa “so the U.S. can boost and counter the outbreak of Ebola." We are concerned that sending military troops without cultural competency will hinder efforts rather than assist them. In our classes, we have found that International Aid workers have been going to African countries hit by Ebola for the past decade. They arrive, don hazmat suits and go to the rural regions hit by Ebola. There, with clinical efficiency, they arrive, remove bodies, take blood, disinfect and leave, often without speaking to anyone in the village to explain what they are doing and why. As a result, local people are often left to draw their own conclusions as to why bodies and blood were taken away without normal interactions of civility and humanity. Often, due to colonial-era abuse of rural citizens, paranoia reigns and people surmise the hazmat workers are “stealing organs or blood.” As a result, the site of the hazmat suits or of ambulances causes infected patients to run or to hide, exacerbating the spread of Ebola.

By 8:40 a.m. the coffee shop in Boatwright Memorial Library is well into its morning rush, with more than a dozen students lined up to order at any time. Four of Eight-Fifteen at Boatwright’s more than 30 student employees moved calmly but quickly to fill orders behind the long, wraparound counter.
