True Life: I Hate My Roommate
It was the bag of vomit, I think. That was the moment when I realized that I hate my roommate. About a week and a half into classes, after feeding my pasta toss addiction at Houston and pretending to study for a couple hours, I returned to my room to find it smelling of decomposing Chipotle, Dark Temptation Axe body spray and something far, far more sinister. It smelled like… like the floor of a frat bathroom.

TOASTS We're all about freedom of expression; that’s why this week we’d like to toast those on campus who really let their freak flag fly. Both the Women’s Rugby Team and the PennChants had bizarre initiations this week in rather public places.
