By Angelo DiBello Richmond College '09 Over the last two weeks I, like many, have found myself reading as many articles as I can about the President-elect Barack Obama.
By Hayley Swinson Westhampton College '10 Hey guys, thanks for the reaction; it's what I was looking for. The whole purpose behind this article was not to belittle the college scene, or to set myself apart from it, as I am not by any means holier-than-thou (sorry for making my fb profile unsearchable). Mostly, my aim was to shock people into thinking about the issue themselves, but more importantly not to be surprised when rumors and stereotypes surface about their actual behavior. I'm assuming that the two of you are recent graduates and have not been keeping up to date on what's been going on on campus (though I would like to think that they taught you in law school/wall street or wherever to take things in context). This is a response to the overreaction people had to an e-mail sent by, more than likely, fraternity brothers of yours describing a stereotypical UR woman. And what did the stereotypical UR woman do after she read the e-mail?

By Mike Pollock Richmond College '09 It is undeniable that the Republican Party has suffered a massive repudiation by the American electorate.
By Jarrett Dieterle Collegian Columnist Immediately after last Tuesday's election many speculators were busy eulogizing the Republican Party.
We are writing to address JuicyCampus.com and its consequence to our campus community. First, we wish to express our collective disapproval and disappointment with Juicy Campus.
Here's the plan: We drive 16 hours from Richmond to Kansas City from 5:30 p.m. on Thursday to about 10:30 a.m.
It's true that the recent frat e-mail was disgustingly prejudiced. But more to the point, the images that were so bluntly described are not that far from the true social life of a typical Richmond student. Here's the REAL problem: The university cannot figure out how to clean up after its students.
By Jarrett Dieterle Richmond College '10 The now infamous e-mail incident refuses to disappear.
A few days ago I discovered a juicy new addition to this campus, and judging by the most popular searches this week (Richmond currently holds the top two spots), it seems that a sizable chunk of the rest of our campus knows exactly what I'm talking about. You might remember the article that ran in The Collegian last year about a fast-growing Web site sweeping the nation's universities -- JuicyCampus.com.
By Christopher Genualdi Richmond College '09 Last weekend, I was talking to someone told me a story about a female's sexual endeavors.
This election is about "change." But during the 2008 presidential campaign this word has lost its impact.
By Amanda Cannada Westhampton College '10 Last Monday night, I had the pleasure of going to what ended up being a two-and-a-half-hour information session on careers in the music business.
By Jill Eisenberg Westhampton College '09 Our university's administration has acted swiftly and proactively to condemn the horrifying sexism and racism in the Kappa Sig e-mail, but administrators can lecture us until they are blue in the face.
By Jarrett Dieterle Richmond College '10 In the wake of the derogatory e-mail by a U of R fraternity member, a thorough discourse has arisen within the hallways, classrooms and organized forums here on campus.
