At the annual Student Association allocation meeting, student groups traditionally flood in to complain about a lack of funds. But this year, the SA seems to have pleased all but one group by sharing the wealth of a 25 percent overall budget increase. The SA gave virtually an across-the-board 25 percent increase to the more […]
The Student Association has yet to accomplish much beyond allocating money to student organizations this year.

Lehigh University’s Bowden Osborn won the tournament with a five-under-par 139 (69-70). Host Lehigh […]
Thanks to the canceled IMF meetings, my roommate and I decided to make an adventure out of our weekend and take a short trip to the United States Naval Academy to visit some friends. I was really excited because I had never before seen either the Naval Academy or Annapolis. Unfortunately, Annapolis is not easy […]
