The homecoming concert that struck a nerve with so many students is now history. As predicted, tickets sales indicate that the show was a flop. With Lawson Gym at only 35 percent capacity on the night of the concert (2,800 tickets sold and 8,000 seats), hopefully SGA learned its lesson […]

So Tyrone Biggums from the Dave Chappelle Show made an appearance this Halloween? You think he got this costume from Party City? Somehow, I have a feeling this may not have been a costume… I mean it does look a little homemade. He probably likes the kind of candy that […]
