By Ryan Brown · Wednesday, Sept. 3,2008 11:26 p.m.

Summer is over now, and it is time to reflect on all the cook-outs we went to, how many times we heard “American Boy” on the radio and how much the weather sucks now that we have to bear the intense humidity while walking to class.

Just about everywhere I turned, I saw a couple of girls wearing wife beaters, sweats and a pair of Goodwill house slippers.
