Running from class to class barely leaves enough time for sufficient and healthy meals. Many times walking around campus, you will see students munching on a bag of chips or eating a personal pizza from Papa Johns. There are not many healthy options for students to grab on the go, and even if there are they are more expensive than the unhealthy ones.

It seems some politicians, talking heads and pundits have all but retreated to Cold War-era hideouts to escape the economic crisis. Congress, although it voted down the first draft of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (EESA) on Monday, seems likely to eventually lend Wall Street a helping hand in the form of tax revenue.

Only twenty minutes after my first meeting with sophomore Gabe Arnold in front of Bunce Hall, I already had him running away. "O.K, this is a fence, but I look at it and I think, I can do something here," he said, before jumping over a rail and into the bottom of a basement stairwell, only to climb up the wall and back over the rail.

Red and gold foliage in autumn and fuchsia cherry blossoms by spring … Villanova's landscape flickers with the sun and cultivates a feeling of home with beauty for all students.

When building a house it is vital for survival that there be a ventilation system; a chimney, a fan, or even just an open window.
