Senator John McCain chose Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate and possible successor. During President Bush's reign, Dick Cheney has had tremendous influence over the White House. It would would be frightening if Palin took over for McCain, because Palin has no foreign policy experience, and would be terrible for America's Jews and Israel.

Eight days. All that is separating us from the glorious reprieve that is Fall Break is a week like the one immortalized in song by the Beatles. Even so, the phrase "so close, yet so far" comes to mind, and never have those words seemed so true… or so painful.

With unemployment rates rising, students, especially graduating students, have to struggle to climb to the top of the mountain to snatch a job.
Because job opportunities are slim, there is no room for errors, or for inappropriate pictures on Facebook, where employers scout students out before saying, "You're hired!"
"No question, this is a difficult job market," said Adam Mayer, director of career development at the Center for Career Services and Community-based Learning in Morehead Hall, third floor.

When it comes to campus cuisine, I feel like a freshman again… only better, because I'm a senior. Once more, I'm excited by all the surrounding eateries that I've yet to fully explore and exhaust - that, and three years later I'm still avoiding Commons. But it's not the new spots around 40th that have me so pumped; they're tasty, yes, but slow service (Hummus), tiny portions (Distrito) and eerie atmosphere (Cream & Sugar) leave them underwhelming.

Outside the back of College Hall, different tables are set up with white signs in the middle of the table, each with a different decade printed in large writing dating back to the 1930s. Over by the 1990s table, two old friends who used to be in the same fraternity share a laugh remembering old concerts and playing hacky sack in the quad.

Maybe I'm just a pessimist, but I don't think most Americans care enough about this upcoming election.
That's not to say they won't get worked up. They'll come out to vote, wear pins, buy bumper stickers, watch CNN, and read some articles in the New York Times about their favorite candidates.

As first-years wrestled with Hell Week last week and second-years hustled through Fall recruiting, my wife Pia and I suffered a terrible loss. Bruno de Solenni, brother of Pia and a member of the Oregon National Guard, was killed by a roadside bomb in southern Afghanistan on Saturday, September 20, while supporting the Afghan National Army in their counter-insurgency efforts. This week, I will escort his remains by military transport to his final resting place in his hometown of Crescent City, CA. Below are excerpts from a letter that Bruno wrote to his local newspaper shortly before his death; it serves as a timely reminder of all of the blessings that we enjoy and of the sacrifices that others make so that we may enjoy them.

It started with an email. A reply. An apology. A reaction from the club president. A dissertation from Anjani. And then, an overwhelming tsunami of emotion as students reacted to what they heard. Anger, outrage, confusion, shock, annoyance, frustration, bewilderment, and cynicism spread through the halls and infi ltrated Blackberries. How could one word cause such a commotion?
