2015 NFL Draft Winners and Losers
After a weekend filled with college athletes turning pro, the NFL has an infusion of young talent. Months of mock drafts, rankings and big boards were once again tossed aside as NFL teams selected the players they coveted. A lot of players fell in the draft, some were picked before they expected and character concerns […]
Remember to Eat! And Sleep I Guess…
It’s getting to that time of year again. Finals are barreling down at us and there doesn’t ever seem to be enough time in the day to study. So instead of studying, procrastination goes up, productivity goes down, and as a result unimportant things like eating and sleeping fall to the bottom of list of things […]
Not Just That Annoying Email Reminder: How Course Evaluations Benefit Us

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!

School Food Sucks

How to Treat a Woman
“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 […]
Are We Real Politicians Yet?
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 […]
