February 18, 2011 by Bailey Neal

While this past Monday I wasn't with my immediate family, I did my best to celebrate and avoid lapsing into a sugar coma. This was made a little more difficult as I ... [Read More…]

Bueno is best.

February 14, 2011 by Bailey Neal

Like a true college student, my diet this week so far has consisted almost only of granola, Rice-A-Roni, and fast food. It's not that I prefer drive-thru's to other places, but I can admit that there are those weeks where eating fast food is unfortunately the most practical thing for my budget and my schedule. However, one place I can go any ... [Read More…]

Young Republicans and College Democrats have been active student groups at ACU for years, but a new group of students thinks more than two political parties should be represented on campus.
