This week I sat down with Wesley Van Eeden, an artist, illustrator, graphic designer and painter who works for clients across the world as well as exhibiting his personal work in various galleries. His newest piece, “The Taxi Dance,” commissioned by Queens College, will be unveiled April 29th, 2015 @ 12:15PM – 1:30PM, The Godwin-Ternbach Museum. (Free and Open to the […]
“This syllabus makes no sense.” “Sorry, I can’t hang out tonight. Professor ____ loaded us up with way too much homework again.” “The material in my biology class is ridiculously unclear.” “I can’t even hear anything that Professor _____ says! He speaks so quietly!” “I wish somebody had warned me about this professor…” It must be […]
The 2015 NFL Draft will finally take place four days from now, April 30th in Chicago. This has to be one of the most difficult drafts to predict of all-time. What makes this draft unique is the lack of can’t miss, scheme transcending talent. There is a plethora of elite talent, but scheme-fit will play […]
The Huge Awards is the highest award in science fiction and fantasy. This year, it is center stage in SF/F’s own GamerGate. Through vigorous campaigning and buying voter-only memberships to the World Science Fiction convention, a movement that seems eerily similar to the GamerGate of last year swept the nomination ballot in opposition of diversity […]

“Excuse me miss, but you look really beautiful.” Now that’s how you compliment a woman. A couple of days ago when I was going through some drama with a friend, someone on the QC quad stopped me to say just that, and it kind of made my day. It was so simple, without asking for […]
If you’re a QC student reading this: Congratulations! You survived student government elections. Fortunately there were no casualties this year. But there are few, if any students, who left this week saying, “Wow. I really enjoyed exercising my right to vote this week!” If you’re not a QC student or are just unaware of what […]
These events used to be a major spectacle. There would be various major events and the same names would compete to hold their place within the sport. I am referring to the sport of boxing. Remember that thing? A sport that has been practically dead for a long time, with two major names controlling everything […]
This week, you were undoubtedly hounded by Queens College students, most of whom you have never seen on campus before. It is elections week, and the two parties, SFC and IA, were battling it out to get your vote. I was disheartened to see so many students blindly cast their ballot, not knowing what their John […]
