The UW-Madison Police Department bid farewell to their chief of 25 years, Sue Riseling, at the end of this past spring semester. Stepping into her shoes for the time being is Brian Bridges, an officer in his fourth decade with the force. Bridges is no stranger to campus law enforcement, having worked at UW-Eau Claire before coming to UW-Madison. Bridges has no intention of remaining chief?the future permanent chief will be chosen by the university from a pool of applicants from all over the nation, most likely in November or December of this year?and will return to assistant chief status once one is selected.

Daily Reveille sports editor talks Fournette, game preview
(09/02/16 9:07pm)
By some miraculous act of God, Christian Boutwell, sports editor of LSU’s Daily Reveille, was able to get a phone to work in the Bayou and have a conversation with me about the Tigers' upcoming bout against UW. Jokes aside, I was able to pick Christian’s brain about LSU and got some fantastic insight about the Tigers and their clash with the Badgers. From Leonard Fournette to the Lambeau Leap, from Dave Aranda to the SEC-B10 rivalry, Christian hit it all.

Camp Randall's Student Section guide
(07/11/16 1:35am)
If you’re sitting in J, you deserve a standing ovation for managing to hide how drunk you are from security. You probably went to your cousin’s place on Regent, did four too many beer bongs and wandered into the stadium around halftime. This is the drunkest of sections and definitely the worst. If your plan is to watch the football game, don’t sit in J. You’ve been warned.

Despite multiple recent Madison shows, Hippo Campus gives dynamic performance
(05/16/16 8:12pm)
I’ll be up-front: A former editor of mine recently nicknamed me “one-trick pony” for my repeated coverage of the indie rock band Hippo Campus. He had a point: Thursday marked the group’s third concert in Madison since September, when they performed as an opener for Benjamin Booker. Less than two months later Hippo Campus returned, headlining with songs off their latest EP South. By Thursday’s show at the Majestic Theatre, this one-trick pony was worried the Minnesota-based band wouldn’t be able to engage the audience without the nauseating feeling of deja-vu. However, Hippo Campus managed to electrify the crowd, with help from two opening acts.
