How to Create a Tufts Social Scene for Dummies'

October 11

The last few weeks have been filled with editorials and articles about the problems with Tufts' social scene. I understand the complaints about campus social life and agree that it can be improved. Yet I believe that instead of exclusively blaming the administration and waiting for the social messiah to descend upon the school and save us from watching reruns on Nick at Night every Friday, we can take a few steps ourselves to ensure we have a good time on campus.

No money, no worries for ruggers

They play in mud and mayhem. They celebrate with post-game revelry, complete with boisterous songs and hard drinks. They slap their teammates with endearing nicknames such as "Mr. Tinklepants" and "Ogre."

Top Ten | Reunited and it feels so good

October 10

If there's one thing that Paris Hilton has taught us, it's that making up (but, not, in her case, making out) is hard to do.

Devin Toohey | When Pop Culture goes Bad

October 10

IGN has released a list of the twenty-five best primetime cartoons of all time. I found this out last night. I was sitting in front of the TV, minding my own business, when I was assaulted with this list. I didn't ask for it. I didn't really care. But, nevertheless, it was there. (By the way, IGN is some kind of "gaming and geekdom in general" Web site. Don't feel bad. I had no clue what it what it was until I started writing this column.)

Jumbos guilty of awesomeness with 3-1 triumph over Judges

October 10

The volleyball team claimed its sixth straight win over Brandeis last night, maintaining its perfect home record with a 3-1 win over the visiting Judges. With the win, the Jumbos moved to 15-5 on the season. The Jumbos started the night off with a first-match loss but retaliated with three consecutive wins to end the night and send the Judges home with another loss, dropping them to 8-10. Junior Katie Wysham led the Jumbos offensively with 18 kills on 35 attempts for a .429 kill percentage, and senior co-captain Kelli Harrison collected 16 kills and 22 digs. The sophomore class had an impressive showing, as Maya Ripecky (25 digs, one serving ace), Stacy Filocco (15 kills, nine digs) and Kaitlin O'Reilly (17 digs, 56 assists) took the court in all four games.

Campus Cooking | Breaking the fast with a spectacular start

October 10

It's that time of year again. School is well in session and its jolly entourage of midterms, papers, and late-nighters are upon us. I can tell because it is 4:40 a.m., and, after finally finishing my programming project, I still have to write this article. Well, when it's this late, it's early. Birds start to chirp outside, the sun is thinking of rising, and thoughts easily turn to none other than ... breakfast. (Oh, and sleep, too. But that's not nearly as tasty.)
