Living in a dorm or a small apartment can often make you feel like the old woman who lives in a shoe, but a really small size-six Ugg that gives you blisters. Here are five storage tips to make your living space less shoe-sized and more palace-sized (okay, well at least actual room-sized).
Remember when you were learning to spell and would always mix up the words “desert” and “dessert?” To solve this mind f—k, my third grade teacher once said, “Dessert has two s’s because you always want two.” Ain’t that the truth?My mission, which I begged to accept, was to seek out all of the best desserts around campus. And boy, did I ever.

Fellow Student Ambassador Parker Moore overheard the conversation and approached the two with an idea of his own. His suggestion formed the basis of what would become their Utrack app, designed to streamline the university student experience.

In 1952, composer John Cage wrote a piece of music entitled “4’33” that is intended to be played on any instrument, by any number of people, for four minutes and 33 seconds. What stands out about the piece is that for those four minutes and 33 seconds, it consists of complete silence. Some called it a lazy waste of time; others hesitate to refer to it as art. Art has become rigid and overly defined. If only there was a way that any form of art could be expressed openly to the public at no charge whatsoever.
It’s finally upon us, folks: the glorious weeklong stretch of beer, bikinis and bad decisions known as spring break. For seven days, we can forget about our moral compasses and, for lack of better phrasing, f—k s—t up. Right?
During the interview portion of the most recent Miss Universe pageant, judge Rob Dyrdek posed this seemingly innocuous question to then-Miss Colombia. Though she went on to win the pageant, Colombia’s answer was decidedly evasive, and many viewers around the globe found themselves wondering how they would have chosen to answer Dyrdek’s question.

Listen up, foodies. It’s time for a special edition of Food Fight that—you guessed it—isn’t about food at all. When called upon for this mission, I gladly accepted the challenge ahead of me. How would I find signature cocktails to rival the likes of a Nerds Pitcher at Group Therapy or a Fishbowl at (RIP Kildare’s) The Horseshoe?
