Megan Delp, Managing Editor – So here it is: the last Kiss and Tell. You all have witnessed and heard about my life through the rollercoaster of a ride I have been through this year. As I was writing this blog, it made me realize how different my life is today compared to even just the beginning of this school year. When I first began this blog, I was still [...]

Jared Bloomquist, Staff Writer – Well, I don’t know about you, but it has just hit me that by the time this is published, we will be in the teens for number of schooldays left. Where has the year gone, really? We only have one more week together and finals are looming, as well as papers that we’re going to wait until the last possible minute to start. Even though [...]

Rachad Davis, Sports Editor – So apparently Jackie Robinson Day was this past Sunday? We all know the significance of Jackie Robinson; he was the first African-American to integrate the sport of baseball. Anyway, what I want to bring to your attention in this week’s blog post is a fact that I learned from an article I was reading in USA TODAY Sports. “The African-American population in baseball this season [...]

For me, the drunk dial does not only refer to phone calls but the drunken text message one sends in their altered state of mind. People, [...]

Jared Bloomquist, Staff Writer – There you go, I’ve started it. The touchiest thing I’ll talk about in this whole series, besides speaking nicely about weight concerns: what you eat. Now, before you stop reading and tell me that I’m crazy if I think you are going to change what you eat, give me a few sentences more.

Megan Delp, Copy Desk Chief – Last week, I wrote about jealousy and the numerous ways it can affect a romantic relationship, especially during the college years. However, the reliance on technology in the world today, particularly in the younger generation, also plays a major role in the jealousy factor. Facebook, texting, phone calls and different applications on cell phones all bring out jealousy in people. Social media has a [...]

It looks like Peyton Manning has finally chosen a team to go to. This upcoming season Manning will be wearing a Denver Broncos jersey. I am somewhat relieved that he managed to pick a team without going through a huge media fiasco similar to what LeBron James or Brett Favre created. I’m a little surprised he chose the Broncos over the other teams that were courting him. The front runners, [...]
