CCSC hopefuls have littered the Butler lawn and Low Plaza with Columbia-blue balloons telling us to VOTE NOW for CCSC elections. A gaggle of toddler-ruffians are having a blast tearing down the balloons that line the lawns and playing fun games with them. Overheard from one cableknit sweater-clad young gentleman: “ABRACADABRA! How did these balloons […]

Since opening last year, the J-School cafe area hasn’t exactly been overwhelmed, as students have been waiting for a more formal establishment to open and/or thought the room was entirely computer-generated. Starting Monday, though, look for students to at least give the space a second chance, as the owners of Campo will be opening a […]

Here is a Google Maps App that tells you where to go to cast your vote today. (If you’re at school, it’s probably Wien, despite Google’s uncharacteristic misspelling.) The app also includes reminders like “you must be registered” and whether or not your location offers early voting, which at this point is irrelevant, but still, […]

An election-eve barnstorm […]

But one-party races do make for fun campaign speeches, and courtesy of ESC’s web wizardry, you can watch them […]

Dear SEAS: Here are the candidates for the ESC e-board, who will fight it out tonight at 9PM in the Satow Room. You won’t get to vote on them, but at least you know who might become your quasi-elected leaders. President: Eash Cumarasamy and Liz Strauss Secretary: Erin Svokos and Krissie Zambrano Vice President Intergroup: […]

I feel like I’ve been here before, been here before… (Watch Jeffrey Sachs on last night’s Charlie Rose.) Give me your toasters, your lava lamps, your otherwise hidden appliances…while you walk out for that McBain fire alarm Peace, Not Apartheid. (Just kidding!) Democracy Soon! Please? Frontiers’ heart:  in the right place “In fact, the only […]
