Nationwide teach-in broadcasts on campus

The issue of torture tactics in joint U.S. Naval and detainment camp, Guantanamo Bay, took center stage as students watched Internet streaming video from across the nation.

It's not just about the beer

Keg stands, card drinking games, and beer pong: Summit beer likely has a weekly role in all of these well-known party activities for those daring individuals willing to avoid "the Beast" and pay a little more for beer. However, Summit is more than just a supplier of fun times on Friday and Saturday nights for college students.

Senior creates the next O.C.

Let it be known that I hate sitcoms. I find them to be campy, predictable and altogether not funny.

That said, I’m actually quite optimistic for and withholding judgment on Hamline’s own sitcom, On Campus, until I can see the final product. Last week I stopped by the set (that evening it was the Blue Garden near the library) to interview the creative team and watch a scene being filmed. I came in expecting very little -- maybe a handheld camera and a few people just joking around; what I found was anything but.
My first order of business was to talk to the duo behind the whole thing--seniors Drew McCullough (Director/Executive Producer) and Nerissa Nordquist (Writer/Associate Producer).

Football keeps "Old Paint Bucket"

On Sept. 30, the Pipers took on the Macalester football club at Klas Field in front of a crowd of nearly 900 spectators. Whenever the Pipers and the Scots lock horns, they play for more than bragging rights. Last week Hamline beat Macalester 35-7; the victory allowed Hamline to retain the coveted “Old Paint Bucket” trophy for the 19th time in the last 20 matchups between the two schools.

Beyond the Bedroom: erotic expertise

with Stevie Hottman

Dear Stevie,

My girlfriend and I have been having sex for awhile, but it seems like she’s not enjoying it as much anymore. She usually initiates sex, but 10 minutes into it she rolls off and turns on the TV. It seems harder and harder to make her come. She tells me she gets off when we have sex, but it’s not like it used to be at all. I have the feeling she’s faking it, which upsets me. How can I tell? And if she is, how can I make her come like I used to?
