The University of Massachusetts Republican Club held a rally on the front steps of the Student Union yesterday, in response to what the club has called a "pornographic" brochure posted outside the Radical Student Union's (RSU) office.
The poster, a cartoon intended to promote safe sex, depicts two men engaging in sexual relations in an illustration.

This year's contest for Student Union president could not be more different from 2006's plebiscite: Four students-the field was initially an impressive six-threw their hats in the ring this year. They have diverse visions and styles of leadership, but all four correctly agree that the next president should bring greater transparency to the Union.

Massachusetts is one of 16 states that still allows dog racing. There are two greyhound racing tracks in Massachusetts, not far at all from the law school: Wonderland Greyhound Park is in Revere, MA and Raynham Park is in Taunton. Each one of these tacks requires at least 1,000 dogs to be operational, and the life of a racing greyhound isn't what the owners of the "parks" would have you believe.

As the semester dwindles down to a flurry of hasty goodbyes and off-the-cuff final papers, we of the arts and living section of the Massachusetts Daily Collegian are thinking ahead to the grand beyond. Summer, with its infinite possibilities, doesn't just provide the chance to gorge on Dad's burnt barbeque and PBR-fueled beach bonfires - it's also home to the season film fans of all ages look forward to most.

Traveling is an experience everyone should have; it allows us to become familiar with other cultures hands on. As college students, however, most of us can barely afford to pay for our textbooks let alone leisurely trips. Organizations such as EF College Break, Student City and Contiki have created travel deals targeted to students who have always wanted to travel but fell short when it came to expenses.

For all that it sounds like the writer's strike might end as early as this week, we can expect American television to be a wasteland for quite some time while shows gear back up into production. So what's a 3L with a bit of free time on their hands to do? Many people might suggest you become an "American Idol" fan or pick up a Netflix subscription.

As a nationally, top-ranked program, athletic training at Northeastern should be a proud achievement for the university. The program's strength lies in practical application over theory, and at an institution where hands-on experience through co-op is the cornerstone of the school's mission, it's been able to thrive.

When junior Steve Hoeschele found out there was no class on propaganda offered this spring, he decided to teach his own.
Like Hoeschele, several students at the University of Massachusetts have taken the reins from professors and decided to create their own classes, syllabi and assignments through programs in both the anthropology and Social Thought and Political Economy (STPEC) departments.

Felix Fernandez Pizzi, Northeastern's new alcohol and other drug counselor, came to the university with the hope of developing and strengthening the services and counseling students can receive, in relation to alcohol and drug awareness.
One of Pizzi's main concerns is that students realize counseling services are to help students rather than lecture them into giving up their alcohol consumption.

Robert Quinn was expecting a package from California last week.
What he may not have been expecting was that along with the package, which was waiting for him with his building manager, were several Boston Police Drug Control Unit officers and federal Drug Enforcement Administration agents.
