BRAVO to ASU, its wonderful fees and fantastic crammed parking lots. We love everything about this University, but we especially love paying through the nose to go to school here...
BRAVO to April Fool's Day. We already pulled one prank on you, and we hope you get the chance to pull a few more today.
BOO to the athletic department for missing the warning signs in Loren Wade's immediate past. We defended the department earlier this week, but spoke too soon. While we still acknowledge this incident was entirely Wade's fault, we wish ASU could have done more to help Wade before it all went bad.
BRAVO to April. There's nothing sweeter than knowing we're only a little more than a month away from the end of the semester. Can anyone else smell the diplomas?
BOO to Undergraduate Student Government drama. We were all set to finish our pre-election coverage, and the ever-present soap opera that is student government reared its ugly head.
BOO to postponed elections. The USG elections will happen next week, er, are supposed to happen next week. The only thing that is certain is that voter turnout will not climb above 10 percent and we'll stay pie free.
BRAVO to former ASU baseball player Dustin Pedroia. This stud (the source of much attention from female staffers during his time at ASU) returned to the Valley in a Boston Red Sox uniform on Thursday night.
BOO to computer outages. It's annoying enough to come to school without having our precious life source, the Internet, ripped from our hands.
BRAVO to nice weather. With sunny days come random festivals and the end of allergy season. Once the heat kills off the plants, we'll be able to have a clear head while strolling around art and music festivals.
BOO to Studentcity.com. Students who booked their spring break plans through the travel agency were sorely disappointed. Getting stranded on a beach in Mexico is one thing; getting stranded in a border town is an entirely different story.
BRAVO to new professor Stephen Johnston. We hope Johnston's new ideas about cancer research will help find a cure. If that happens, the Nobel Prize would be a lock for sure.
