The concept of Relationship Lite is simple: It’s an arrangement between two people who go out together, watch movies together, cuddle, tease each other, meet each other’s friends and, of course, have sex.
Do not let Andrew’s death be in vain. Avoid fighting at all costs, and call police if one breaks out.
Winter is coming. That is not a “Game of Thrones” reference. That is the brutally cold truth, and we should all be nothing less than terrified.
The East Lansing election is over, and newly chosen council members have no time to waste celebrating their victories. From housing to bike lanes, decisions made by the council have heavy implications for how East Lansing will grow and how students will live for the next several years. We hope they take the following recommendations to heart as they start their terms.
There is a pervasive issue so expected, so socially accepted that many of us, mostly women, deal with it on a daily basis without saying a word: street harassment.

If students and residents read one thing in The State News today, we hope it’s this.
Maybe it’s just me, but I kind of like being the “little brother.” Coined by University of Michigan star running back Mike Hart in a 2007 postgame interview, the little brother insult has grown from simple trash talk into a central component of U-M’s ideology regarding Michigan State.

Celebrating with class goes beyond staying in control of your own actions; it means watching out for friends, being proud of your community and showing respect for visitors, even those from Ann Arbor.
MSU’s football team is playing Michigan this Saturday and, for the first time all year, I expect to see a sold-out Spartan Stadium. If you watch college football on Saturdays, you’ll notice entire sections of empty seats in some of the nation’s most notable venues, and Spartan Stadium is no exception.
