You'll hear it - or at least
think it - a hundred times:
You're at a crossroads in your
life. Childhood has ended;
adulthood is setting in. College
is where you'll find yourself,
where you'll meet the
best friends you'll ever make,
where you'll have the best
time of your life - and then,
when it's over, you'll venture
into "the great abyss.

Riding a bike. Driving. Sky
Diving. Kissing. Drinking. Piercing.
Sex.
What do these activities have
in common? Importance of epic
proportions is placed on the First
Time. It's an
importance so
huge, it even
comes with its
own capital letters.
The First
Time phenomenon
for sex is
surely the biggest of them all.

summer, you'll see construction
everywhere. Dump
trucks and caution tape line
the streets, and along every
fence there's a banner reading
"Building Brown." It's
a process that goes faster
during dog day afternoons,
when the Quad's taken up
mainly by high school students
and the streets are devoid of
Brunonians, but it's one that
continues throughout the year
- not just behind closed-off
streets, but also closed doors.

Northeastern officials have withdrawn four students from a program in New Jersey, following an incident in which two of the students were dressed like members of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) on July 6 by paramedics affiliated with the program.
The students alleged to university officials that they were forced by paramedics from Newark's University Hospital, which is operated by the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ), to dress in white sheets to echo the attire worn by KKK members, said Jim Chiavelli, interim director of communications.

What ever happened to the concept of getting what you pay for? When it comes to my study abroad experience at Goldsmiths, University of London, I couldn't tell you. By the time we returned to the United States, each of us were left wondering, "What exactly did Northeastern do with all my money?"
I studied at Goldsmiths during the spring semester, and was charged the typical study abroad fee for all programs.

The Boston College community has seen its list of high profile guests make a stop on campus, but none possessed a presence as persistent and simultaneously down-to-earth as legendary newsman and NBC News Washington bureau chief Tim Russert.
His passing comes only a few weeks after his last visit to campus, when his son Luke, BC '08, graduated.
Vice President and Special Assistant to the President Rev. William Neenan, S.J., recalled a conversation he had with Russert during a reception at the Jesuit's Roberts House on campus that same day.
"He assured us that even though Luke was graduating, he would stay continuously involved in the life of BC," Neenan said.
