Published Feb 5, 2008

Super Tuesday features the largest number of state primary elections held to select delegates for national conventions.

Today, the 2008 Super Tuesday, is a step in determining each party's eventual presidential candidate.



Although Texas is not among the Super Tuesday states, one on-campus group, Students for Obama, is holding a public forum today to inform students about the primaries, elections and candidates.



The forum is one of many attempts to reach out to apathetic youth, who have seemed reluctant to vote in recent history.

Honors credit option weak

Published Feb 1, 2008

The addition of the Contemporary Reading Symposium to the Honors Program will alleviate some pressure second-year honors students experience by making it easier to receive lower-level classification in the program.


Instead of regular and often rigorous course requirements, honors students can relax for a semester because the Contemporary Reading Symposium is essentially a book club for smart people, and it substitutes a lower-division honors requirement.

Chicken dance worth the fine

Published Feb 1, 2008

Super Bowl advertising has always been relegated to the commercials, until now.


Kentucky Fried Chicken has offered to donate $260,000 to charity in the name of the first New England Patriots or New York Giants player to score a touchdown in Sunday's Super Bowl, provided that he flaps his arms like a chicken afterward - you know, like the move from the chicken dance.


The reason: to support the fast food chain's new line of sauceless hot wings.
