Opening up the Honors Program

 More often than not, when I mention to someone that I’m in the Honors Program, they ask me one of two questions: “We have an Honors Program?” or “How did you get into that?” This is usually the beginning of a few more questions, which end in me explaining that I’m not taking the University Core because I’m taking the Honors Core, and I heard about it through my admission letter. Sometimes, I’d get curious looks, like they weren’t sure if I was making it all up. Other times, they’d look at me like I was holding out on them. How come they didn’t even get a chance to be part of this? Either way, I was starting to see that there was a problem here.

Students attend "New Moon" premiere

Event Report

My friends and I decided about a month ago that we were going to attend the “New Moon” premiere.  First of all, I think I should tell you that though we do like the “Twilight” books, we do not consider ourselves vampire-obsessed, love-stricken “Twilighters.”  We’re just not like that.  And second, you should know that this was going to be my first premiere.  Living in L.A. is teaching me to appreciate a good celebrity sighting, and this was a prime opportunity to get our fix.

The men’s basketball team returned to Gersten Pavilion for its home opener against UC Irvine yesterday to play in front of a crowd of about 2,500, but unfortunately for the fans, the Lions let a 14-point lead dissolve before falling to the Anteaters 84-78. The only bright spot for the Lions was sophomore transfer Drew Viney, who put up a career-high 30 points in the contest.
