Columbus Day dawned on the good ‘ol United States of America today. As this day draws to an end, I can’t help but wonder how ridiculous it is that we still celebrate this sad excuse of a holiday. Columbus Day is not only petty, it’s actually sick (to me) that we still give it recognition. Don’t worry, […]
Monday, Sep. 26, UVU Women’s Soccer held an afternoon match at Clyde Field. During this match, a member from the MAWL was kicked out for heckling. Throughout the match, he continued to say sexist remarks to players and the referee till the ref. finally had enough. Like a trophy, the student/member later tweeted* out his […]

Those who follow my stories know that I’m the definition of a non-traditional student: I’ve been in school for ten years, I have two kids and I turn 30 this year. You’ve also probably realized by now that I enjoy writing things to be humorous. Today I decided to switch that up a bit, and […]

The purpose of Wolverine Wednesday is essentially to be an engagement opportunity on campus, aimed at promoting Wolverine pride while giving students a chance to meet others and make friends. Who could resist making friends while getting discount lunch and […]
For freshmen, the first six weeks of school are the most hazardous to academic success, health and safety. You’re in college because you are smart, ambitious, have goals, and you know what you need to do to succeed. If this is the first time you’ve lived away from home without parental supervision, then there are […]
Blessed is the beloved True Wolverine. True Wolverine is one of UVU’s continuous traditions, one where strangers meet in the courtyard under an oh-so romantic midnight sky. These strangers, after pairing off, enjoy a lip-lock moment only to never speak again. It’s my opinion that True Wolverine is the worst introduction to what UVU is […]
During my strenuous time in college, I’ve been enrolled in four schools and have participated in many forms of student involvement. My first role, at SLCC, was the man behind a mask, the infamous mascot–Bruin Bear. I pretty much did that throughout my whole tenure at SLCC, while also wearing a few other hats. Some […]
If you haven’t decoded it yet, I despise fall semester. I know this makes me sound like some whiny brat and that all I’m good for is complaining, but let the record be known that I do have positive things to say. Honestly, it’s just that fall semester is among us again, and it happens […]
