Before I left home for my freshman year of college, my mom persistently tried to put me on birth control and reminded me again and again of all of the resources on campus to look for free condoms. Her baby bird was leaving the nest, and she assumed that this baby bird was going to spend a lot of her free time between the sheets of some college boy’s bed.
We've all heard the phrase: "You've got to drive a few Honda's to appreciate a Ferrari," but I am here to ask the question: do you? Of course, for those of you not yet under the high school rock of sexual education, I'm not talking about cars.
Alex is an average teenager who happens to work at Target. During one of Alex’s shifts, someone decided to take a picture of him and, in a fraction of seconds, “Alex from Target” was a new phenomenon. His talent?

WeBWorK is an online homework program utilized by classes such as Math 103, Math 132, etc. OH Basically, homework assignments become available, and you have a limited time to complete them. Unfortunately, I am one of the unlucky students forced to use this program. It doesn’t seem so bad in theory, but in reality, WeBWorK is terrible.
The first time I ate alone on campus, I was extremely self conscious.
I feel bad for my past State News colleagues, the yearly daily columns used to be harder to write I'm sure.
Every year, we trade these columns back and forth, and every year, we debate the same talking points.
It's that time of year again ? this weekend, MSU is taking on their in-state rival U-M in my favorite football game of the season.
We don't need to remind you of the frenzy surrounding the Broad museum.
