Saint Mary's girls: Uggs, a skirt, and a sweater. Are you cold or hot? Make up your mind.
A recent study shows not having a car and living at Saint Mary's campus causes brain tumors.
When will freshmen learn lanyards are the same thing as painting a target on their back?
The Pope recently announced hiking up to the cross once a week guarantees salvation.
The chairs in Garaventa are uncomfortable. There is no joke or enlightening notion here. It's just a fact.
The book part of the De La Salle statue in front of the Chapel will be rented out for advertisements next year.
Why does the Saint Mary's Lasallian Core Principles poster state one of the principles as an inclusive community yet the students in the photograph are all white?
God is a Gael and he's damned depressed about it.
How effective is Saint Mary's new front gate policy? Now, Public Safety is an outstanding outfit, but if a psychopath is going to enter campus, they are just going to do it before 9 p.m.when you can drive right through.
Jesus turned water into wine, could He hook us up? We have plenty of water, but no wine and we need to make jungle juice.
Ever wonder why your favorite Saint Mary's athletic teams are not mentioned on ESPN? Have you ever been to a party on the weekend? There is your answer.

Program Board has the biggest budget for any student run organization on campus and still the majority of students are complaining about Gaelstock. I suggest student voting should be incorporated into next year's selections, at the very least for the opening bands. This would potentially stop whining and engage students. Granted, students do not vote for Senate and class presidents, but doesn't American Idol get more votes than American Presidential elections? With a $73,300 budget ($30,000 for Gaelstock), perhaps Program Board could reevaluate and bring a notable artist to Gaelstock.
