Did your predictions of how you'd spend time in college come true?
September 28"I'm immersed in so many things that my activities are my leisure time. My only free time is between 2 and 4 a.m., when I collect my thoughts and write my e-mails."

Ever wondered what your body looks like on the inside? The controversial "Body Worlds 2"exhibit currently showing at the Museum of Science gives museum-goers an idea.
The Tufts Community Union (TCU) Senate will hold a student and community barbecue today at Fletcher Field from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.
The poignant tagline of "The Guardian" proclaims: "When lives are on the line, sacrifice everything." This latest Touchstone Pictures release, starring Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher, delves into a world characterized by sacrifice and struggle, where everyday lives are at stake and every minute could be someone's last.
Rejoice, college students! At long last, Ted Danson is finally back on television. This time, he's not playing an ex-ballplayer-turned-bartender or a disgruntled doctor. Actually...he is playing a disgruntled doctor, but now he's a psychiatrist. (On "Becker," he was just a regular physician.)
During the past few weeks, a social marketing campaign has begun to appear around Tufts.
High school seniors around the country move into their college dorms with dreams of new friends, parties and free time. But Jumbos often find themselves with more schoolwork than they could have predicted and much less leisure time than they wished for.
With sunshine in the forecast and no parents in sight, Homecoming Weekend 2006 already has an edge over the awkward drunk-brunch-with-your-roomate's-parents mudfest. The Bobcats are coming to town, bringing with them a 5-6 NESCAC record, and all four Tufts teams are coming off big wins at home, and are ready to master Bates on Homecoming (Oh, we went there)...
Students learn a lot of new vocabulary when they come to college. They can throw around terms like "democratic peace theory" or "historical constructivism" like a pro. But despite all the new learning, there is still one word that has a place in every college students' heart: free.
I'm something of a rarity: an Irish Catholic who can't stand Notre Dame. It horrifies my grandma to the point of comedy; I think she's been saying daily rosaries for me ever since she found out.

Names are a funny thing. They are often our trademark, our stamp by which people know us. They provide us with a certain flavor or flare, and yet we really have no say whatsoever in the choice of our names.
A few ill-advised Houston picks, a Tom Brady collapse, and the Steelers buckling at home were all it took to shake up the world of Editors' Challenge. Evans "Dirty Water" Clinchy rocketed to the top spot with a Perrier-sparkling 11-3 week, vaulting over Dave "40 MIDGETS!" Pomerantz and Andrew "LION!" Bauld, who are locked in a roommate rivalry at 22-10. Rachel "R.Dol." Dolin exploited her younger brothers' encyclopedic NFL knowledge to turn in a 10-4 week, earning a slight edge that she will no doubt lord over Alex "I can't edit because I have to shave for my columns picture" Bloom spent the week sulking after a 9-5 showing. Andrew "Breaking out the fancy" Silver follows at 19-13 after a 7-7 week, and a surprisingly competent 10-4 week from Tom "Sketchball" Eager earned him the same. Liz Hoffman finally caved under the pressure, paying dearly for her gutsy Tennessee pick and falling to 17-15. She can take comfort in Kelley Vendeland's abysmal 14-22 overall mark (note to Kelley: stop letting your I-House roommates make your NFL picks).

I have been becawked. I don't even really know what "becawk" means, but my male neighbors and their male friends decided it sounded a lot like my name when they shouted it at me as I was walking home alone at night last week. Perhaps it's a bird call and they were just being friendly and expressing their taste in bird calling. But I think every girl on this campus would agree that it was a catcall instead.
Charlotte walks onto the stage in stiff orthopedic shoes, a black skirt uniform with a black blouse, a black kerchief and a string of pearls. Delicate Charlotte is a man.
"The major flaw of the previous peace processes was the fact that too much was left to the local parties to sort it out," said Afif Emile Safieh, Head of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Mission to the United States, to an audience of about 50 in Barnum Hall on Tuesday night.
As MLB heads into its final weekend of the season, seven of the postseason's eight teams already have their tickets stamped and their bags packed.
Being artsy like us, you've obviously wondered from time to time how to keep it classy here at Tufts while maintaining your Jumbo pride. Since you read our section, you're on the right path, but, understandably, Homecoming has you stumped.
