Overconquering will conquer you

June 15, 2014 by Rachal Marquez

Art by Sacha Irick Let’s talk about the other Napoleon syndrome. No, this article is not about short people. Because let’s face it, there are lots of people who are much shorter than the famed emperor and do just fine. Short jokes aside, Napoleon’s height (or lack thereof) wasn’t his downfall. No, Napoleon’s fatal flaw was that he was an overachiever. For all that he … [Read more...] about Overconquering will conquer you

Let’s talk about food

January 4, 2014 by Rachal Marquez

As college students, food is a big deal. As it well should be. Not only is it a physical necessity, but it is a form of literal communion. In other words, we share our lives with the people we share our food with. Between the af, the HAWC, and the various other eateries on campus, there are certainly options. We’re students, but that seems to entail studying our next meal … [Read more...] about Let’s talk about food
