The end of the semester is almost here, and life is a little crazy. Thursday was a really busy day. I had my first exam of the semester, and I feel pretty confident that I did well on it. There’s still a couple more to go though. As soon as my exam was over, I […]

If there is one thing that Buffalo is known for, it may be the weather (either that or chicken wings - but for the sake of this post, we’re going to go with weather). As unpredictable as it may be, there are definitely a number of upsides to the city that many people overlook. Only recently have I […]

Last week Monday I attended Take Back the Night, which was co-sponsored by Student Involvement, Student Activities, and Counseling Services. If you don’t know, Take Back the Night is an event that takes place all over the world to inform people about sexual violence towards women. It promotes safe environments where women do not have to worry […]

In my Mass Communication Theory class, we have been talking about the effects of television on its viewers. One particular topic that we discussed was that of media and its relation to crime and/or violence. While it’s true that there is a considerable amount of violence on television, can we really blame the media for […]

Why in the world do breaks go by so fast? Suddenly, all the things you planned on doing aren’t done, and tomorrow you have to go back to school. I shouldn’t act surprised. That’s how it always goes. No time to dwell on it, though – there are way too many other things to do. In […]

After talking about it and wishing for it, Spring Break is finally here. Friday was the last day of classes, and Saturday morning, the senior staff of the Perspective boarded a (delayed) plane to New York City. We were traveling there to attend the College Media Advisers Spring National Conference, and it turned out to […]

The last week is always the hardest, isn’t it? Spring Break is days away, but there is so much to do before then. Having been assigned more papers than I think I ever have been at one specific time in my life, I am swamped with assignments as we approach the middle-mark of spring semester. […]

Congratulations are definitely in order for the men’s and women’s basketball teams. In the past few days, both have made school history. The women’s team won their third straight AMCC Championship, and will be participating in the NCAA Tournament for the third time. The men’s team, though they lost in the semi-finals, has improved exponentially […]

I was pretty disappointed this morning when I woke up and realized that yes, it’s Monday, and no, I do not have off. Looks like another long week ahead. Today I was a little stressed out because I had a test and a quiz that I really wanted to do well on. I’m feeling pretty […]

Long weekends. Man, I wish there were more of them. An extra day off gives time for catching up on homework, catching up with friends, and catching up on sleep. I was able to do all of those things this weekend.
This Saturday, I attended the women’s basketball game, which was more than a game, but […]
