Have you ever tried to have a conversation about a person you know without using gender pronouns? It’s harder than you might think. Making a call home to update your parents on interactions with your roommates, friends and professors could prove especially challenging if the words “he” and “she” were off-limits. The role that gender pronouns play in our daily lives and daily conversations was brought to my attention today during an interview with SPECTRUM member Raafe Purnsley.
The Academic Council has clarified policies and procedures with respect to discrimination and prejudice on campus with a new policy.

Today, while actively perusing the addictively popular website Pinterest (if you haven’t heard of it until now, heed my warning of its time-sucking nature), I came across a shirt reading “The book was better.” Admittedly, I chuckled a bit at the phrase, but after brief amusement, it got me thinking.
Our paper is short this week, but it’s not lacking in content. It was quite interesting to explore the prevalence of digital technology in the classroom. Considering the campus is so wired, it’s somewhat surprising to talk to professors that don’t support the total integration of technology in the classroom. At times, I certainly find my laptop to be a distraction during class time, and I understand why one might limit laptop usage.
