By Sara Amato · Tuesday, Oct. 9,2007 11:48 p.m.

Forgetting to bring my sneakers to the second week of my Rape Aggression Defense class was the dumbest mistake I ever made. I’ll be fine, I thought. I was wrong.

By Claire Burke · Tuesday, Oct. 9,2007 10:26 p.m.

This past month in New York, London, Milan and Paris, fashion weeks have been forecasting the trends for next season and allowing designers to show six months worth of hard work to their eager audiences. This season, we saw many new trends for spring, including menswear-inspired looks, muted colors, hats in many forms and the ever-present spring floral print.

Coach’s dilemma

By Thomas Wachtel · Tuesday, Oct. 9,2007 7:55 p.m.

Unless you’re new around here, you probably know that in the United States, we have guaranteed freedom of religion, and (supposedly) separation of church and state. This is generally accepted to be a good thing, until it becomes inconvenient, at which point anyone who argues for that freedom becomes an atheist Commie bastard.

Facebook activism?

By Ayesha Awan · Tuesday, Oct. 9,2007 7:52 p.m.

The upside to downers

By Jennifer Miller · Tuesday, Oct. 9,2007 7:50 p.m.

CAIRO, Egypt – Here’s an idea: Let’s sweep the auto industry out from Detroit. While we’re at it, let’s knock out tourism from Egypt. No? Then why has the U.S. undertaken the revitalized surge in the movement to eradicate poppy fields in Afghanistan? The poppy plant is used in the production of opium and heroin – an industry that accounts for the main source of revenue for the Afghan state.
