In light of the recent Harlem shake dance craze, NSU’s Student Events and Activities Board thought it would be cool if we did one on campus as a way to encourage school pride, while supporting our athletes. I was pretty happy with the turnout and final cut of the video. Kudos to everyone who participated […]

Enough is enough America needs new energy policy
It seems to always come around like an unwanted neighbor; two or three times a year, it seems to slowly increase without explanation. No, I’m not talking about insects or weeds in the grass; I’m talking about gas prices. Gasoline prices in the U.S. have increased dramatically in the last month. According to the American […]
“DOOM” in changing osteopathic medicine initials
It is amazing what a title does for a brand, a movie or even this article. A title gives a first impression and, sometimes, simple information at a first glace. For a professional, a title has great significance. Simple letters like, “M”, “J”, “O” and “D” combine to make initials such as, “JD” and “MD”, […]
Spring break isn’t just about beaches and beer
It’s been said that knowledge is power. Well, what is more powerful than spending a week you would normally use to do silly or unproductive things, helping and serving your community, your country or the world? Spring break is a time to wind down, forget about classes and homework, and just have fun. But you […]
Commuter students finally get a little respect
Commuter Apprecitation Day, a two-hour informational event held on Feb.20 to address the needs of commuter students and introduce them to campus resources, has come and gone. My hope is that the focus on commuter student issues isn’t just relegated to one day, but is always on the minds of NSU’s adminstrators. College can already […]
Frustration at the internship and job fair
NSU does a wonderful job of preparing students for life after graduation. Renowned professors, who have vast experiences in their respective fields, provide students with an excellent education. Combined with state-of-the-art facilities, the university clearly aims to give students all the tools necessary to succeed in a highly competitive global market.
Vacation fantasies becoming staycation realities
When many people fantasize about spring break, they imagine what is depicted in movies — elaborate trips to destinations like Cancun and Key West and excursions to encounter love at first sight with a sun-drenched surfer boy or girl. Many kids grow up looking forward to what could be a highlight of their high school […]
It’s irie mon
There were a number of things that were memorable about Super Bowl XLVII; the reunion of Destiny’s Child, the stellar win by the Baltimore Ravens — which sent Ray Lewis into happy retirement, and, of course, the commercials. But there was one ad that stood above them all: Volkswagen’s “Get in. Get happy”. It involves […]
Performance-enhancing drug use: a fan’s perspective
Sports can be a divisive topic. From tactics to off-field banter and everything in between, there is always something for people to talk about. However, not all of it focuses on the positives. It seems that lately, there is one thing that is always on the mind of a sports fan: the use of performance-enhancing […]
Hate that I love you
It seems like a week can’t pass by without Chris Brown appearing in the news. Whether he’s fighting with other musical artists, falsifying his community service documentation or comparing himself to Jesus on Instagram, Brown seems to be everywhere and I have had enough of it.
