By Danielle Capalbo What's enticing, charitable, and even a bit raunchy? A date auction, and no one knows it better than the NU Democrats. On Thursday, September 29, Northeastern's resident Democrats took over afterHours, auctioning off university boys and girls alike to raise...

Commentary: NUPD must focus on safety, not parties – Gary Marinelli and Kelly Lavin

October 4, 2005

NUPD really drops the ball when it comes to Public Safety. This past weekend my girlfriend and I were eating dinner at Uno's when we saw two males pick-pocketing an unsuspecting couple walking on Huntington Avenue. We witnessed one of the individuals unzipping the women's pocketbook,...

All Hail: Stop taking up MySpace

October 4, 2005

I used to like it. I used to enjoy making profiles on Web sites. It used to be a hobby of mine to spend a bit of time each day on www.myspace.com, back when it was overpopulated with waif-like hipsters and people who like to be in the know. Back in the day, in 2003. But...

liberal bias…

October 4, 2005

Please see quote below. You bigoted, racist, double standard using, idiots. Yes, I'm name calling, sadly there reaches a point where you have to call something what it really is. Enough is enough. How embarrasing. I'll wager that if a bunch of white people pulled some stunt...

Just a reminder – don’t riot

October 4, 2005

Does any of this sound familiar? A Boston team is in the playoffs. Police are out in full force. Universities, based on past experiences, must prepare for the worst. After the sobering deaths of James Graboski and Victoria Snelgrove in 2004, the authorities certainly are...

Breaking Bread–Forum

Dr. Robin Chandler is right on target, as Director and an obvious dumb bigot. All government agencies and Universities are not the place for practicing racial discrimination--especilly so blantantly. Fire the bigot--Thank you. Louis Calabro President European/American...

Column: The enemy without

October 4, 2005

By Stephen Sears Rivalries are always fun. They provide a nice excuse for people to spew profanities at each other without remorse because they attend the high school across town or wear an opposing jersey. Red Sox-Yankees. Capulets-Montagues. Bayside High-Valley High. Ninja...

Women of color program

October 4, 2005

Professor Robin Chandler should be fired for her statements on whites attending her program. Do you think by asking her to apologize will change her thinking on her left wing bias. It's like forcing a serial killer to apologize for what he did and let him go.Do you just think...
