Business students make a ‘case’

·

Most students start thinking about getting a job soon after graduating college. For many, however, the thought of starting can be scary. In order to prepare students for this life step, IU’s Kelley School of Business holds case competitions.

Goldblum to the rescue

·

A recent article from the satirical news publication The Onion poked fun at one of the critical issues facing our country: housing troops in the homes of private citizens. Think it’s a moot point? Think the concept is absurd? It is.

Howling mad

·

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness.” – Allen Ginsberg, “Howl.” Though you may not always know it from the usual themes of my columns, I am an English major through and through.


BRITAIN ANTI WAR PROTEST

Power is sexy

·

Sexual harassment is new to our legal and cultural lexicon, the first cases happening as recently as the 1980s. These cases put the fear of God into some male employers and workers. In order to avoid the reality of power relations in the workplace, women who file sexual harassment lawsuits are routinely derided as uppity, politically correct women who can’t handle a joke.

Cheating our athletes

According to recent reports, cheating among NCAA athletes is not only in the news again but it’s being subsidized by their respective universities. At Florida State University, Texas Tech and the University of Minnesota, among others, it has been reported that the special tutoring programs for top athletes are being encouraged not to merely help the athletes, but to actually write essays and do homework for them.

Beneficial ban

·

If in the following weeks students feel the ground begin to shake and see a few bricks come loose from campus buildings, they should not be alarmed. Indiana isn’t exactly along the San Andreas Fault. It’s no earthquake. Rather, it’s the adult smokers of Monroe County grumbling about the limits being placed on their right to privacy and the dangers of government limitation.

Recycling rivals

·

As a loyal School of Public and Environmental Affairs student, it kills me to have to say what I’m about to say. No, really, this is not easy for me, especially given the history of the rivalry between my beloved SPEA and the famously infamous Kelley School of Business. In fact, I’ll probably regret saying this the second I put it down on paper.

Rocktober

·

This month, an incredible amount of great live music is coming to Bloomington and the surrounding area – so much so that I’ve taken to calling it “Rocktober” (often with a simulated echo, and always to the embarrassment of everyone around me).
