Spring Break
09/13/07 - A perfect storm of problems struck University of Rhode Island Dining Services this year as it introduced 5,800 students to a new meal plan system, new dining hall and new hand-scanning devices. The results, predictably, have not been good. Lines stretching hundreds of students deep have snaked out of Hope Commons, down the stairwell and onto the street.
09/13/07 - As I sit here at 1:30 a.m., I am disappointed. A half page is blank on the opinion page. No letters, no voice from students, faculty or staff. I hope it's not a sign of an apathetic student population.
09/13/07 - Welcome back hound dogs and love goddesses. For all you virgins - to the paper - this is the Cigar's sex and dating column. A crew of writers, with myself at the helm, try our best to answer questions posted by you, the humble and sexually un-learned students of this university.
09/13/07 - To the Cigar, I would just like to state that the new hand symmetry system that the University of Rhode Island's Dining Services has implemented is an abomination. What happened to the good old days of simply getting swiped in at our dining halls? What was once a simple process of handing your ID card to an employee and having them swipe it to check you in has now devolved into a ridiculous mess.
