March (Food) Madness: Can Mason make it to Sweet 16?
March 18th, 2013 · No Comments · Uncategorized
BuzzFeed (no relation) has a list of 32 “best college campus foods” according to the Food Network. You can read it and see the disgusting photos here.

The Class of 2016 is going through the somewhat delirious process called Orientation. Patriot Leaders are showing them which way is up, where to eat, sleep and study, and how to express themselves. Today it’s legal graffiti day as the students sign one of two “2016” boards that will bear witness to their arrival until […]
