Your Turn Letters to the Editor
The claim made by College Republican Aine Murphy Lewis in last week’s letter to the editor that conservative activism will begin on college campuses nationwide can best be summarized as ridiculous and absurd. She must have confused these hopes and dreams with the last sips of bubbly that fizzled and burst on election night.
On how Thanksgiving was
Unlike many other students at VCU, my Thanksgiving holiday was not one of relaxation and holiday cheer – I ended up being scheduled for a shift at my hotel to do a round of room service. In tandem with an already hectic work schedule and a full course load, I am also studying for my LSAT that takes place on Dec.
Opinion in Brief
The semester is nearly over, folks. We’re entering the final stretch, and in only a few weeks we will be in the midst of our winter break! Best of luck to everyone on their term papers, final exams and class presentations. This is a stressful time of year, but the holiday season is always a perfect time to kick back and relax.
Riding with strangers, with help from VCU
Would you take a ride from a complete stranger? Some students are doing just that, with help from VCU.
They are using the VCU RideBoard, which helps students find rides with other students to school, back home and just about anywhere else.
The board is located in the basement of the University Student Commons.
