Professor, student spar in Capital Times over CEO admissions study
(09/23/11 6:00am)
After last week's Center for Equal Opportunity controversy, a war of words broke out between one UW-Madison professor and a student earlier this week.

Letter to the editor: Reply to nuclear energy
(05/04/11 6:00am)
After I read Michael Podgers' article ""Nuclear power is wasteful,"" I began to wonder if Podgers had done the research needed to know how a nuclear power plant works before forming his opinion. He brought up nuclear accidents such as Three Mile Island and Chernobyl without actually explaining what happened. I want to clarify some very important details Podgers left out.
Meet Nebraska
(05/02/11 6:00am)
In just over two months, the eleven schools in the Big Ten will welcome a new member to the family. Carrying its heavy football tradition and strong academic standing, the University of Nebraska enters the conference apprehensive, but eager for a new challenge.
Stanley Cup playoffs are the perfect time to give hockey a chance

I should probably start today's column with a quick apology.
Pundits have no basis behind their early-season projections
(04/20/11 6:00am)
If you don't already know, I am a huge college basketball fan. I cover the Badgers, but beyond that I love following college basketball across the conferences and across the nation. My passion for the sport is a year-round event, not just your typical March obsession. I've even got a countdown going on my phone until the first official day of practice (176 days). It is always college basketball season in my little world.
Railroad mogul charged for illegal Walker donations
(04/12/11 6:00am)
Railroad executive William Gardner was charged Monday with giving excessive and illegal contributions to Gov. Scott Walker's campaign last year, by prompting his employees, daughter and ""woman friend"" to make donations and reimbursing them through his company.
'Insidious' brings out filmmaker's best demons
(04/11/11 6:00am)
When your film features the director and writer of ""Saw"" (James Wan and Leigh Whannell, respectively), and is produced by the director and writer of ""Paranormal Activity"" (Oren Peli), it is fairly certain that something good will come of it. ""Insidious"" revolves around a family who experiences paranormal disturbances after their son, Dalton (Ty Simpkins), falls into an inexplicable coma. They soon find out Dalton is trapped in the world of his dreams, called ""The Further,"" and they must face a realm of demons in order to save him. This psychological thriller does not attempt to shock audience with blood, guts, and elaborate methods of execution, nor does it rely entirely upon unseen antagonists.
Porn and the 'ideal' relationship
(04/08/11 6:00am)
A few days ago, I was using my boyfriend's computer and found some porn. I didn't like it at all. I wasn't snooping, but I was just using his computer to check my e-mail and I think he may have forgotten to clear his search history … I consider myself an open person, and we have a satisfying sex life. He and I have even watched porn together before, but this particular material was such a turnoff. I'm not sure what to do about it. How do I approach him about this?
Merit selection circumvents partisanship
(04/04/11 6:00am)
The past few months have brought out the bad side of Wisconsin politics with most, if not all, of the ugliness stemming from Gov. Scott Walker's controversial budget repair bill. While I think Walker's reforms will guide Wisconsin toward a more stable fiscal future, the manner in which the bill passed and the events following its implementation have dragged Wisconsin further into the dirty ditch of partisan politics.
New Green Day album truly 'Awesome as Fuck'
(03/28/11 6:00am)
Having been a diehard fan of Green Day since the '90s, the new album has not failed to impress me. Green Day's latest live album Awesome as Fuck is the first live release since the explosively popular Bullet in a Bible in 2005. Although the new album is reminiscent of the original live punk-pop energy, it generates its own edge that will continue to draw in listeners, new and old.
Don't blame the style
(03/25/11 6:00am)
NEW ORLEANS—You can say whatever you want about the so-called ""Wisconsin style"" of basketball, but whatever your views, Thursday's Sweet 16 loss at the hands of Butler was not a failure of the system. It was a failure to execute that system.
Subordinate rooting interests to heighten your tournament
(03/09/11 6:00am)
There are 67 games in the NCAA March Madness Men's basketball tournament, and the Badgers will only have to play six of them before they can cut down the nets in Houston. That leaves 61 games and 62 teams unaccounted for. Yet most of us are going to sit in front of the television and let Bryant Gumble direct us through almost all of them anyways. My point is: There are abundant opportunities for subordinate rooting interest to heighten your March Madness experience, no matter how devoted you are to Buckingham U.
I thought by 22 I'd be through with you. And you.

When I was in middle school I'd watch ""Boy Meets World"" and all I'd want was to go to John Adams High and eat a cheeseburger at Chubbie's Famous with Corey, Topanga and Sean. Forget recess and middle school dances. At the time, those shenanigans seemed boring compared to cool-high-school-teenager stuff, like going to pep rallies or driving around with friends with nothing on the agenda other than getting Frosties at Wendy's.
This protest needs its music unity
(03/04/11 6:00am)
My TA said every social movement needs a soundtrack. He was right, too. Mahalia Jackson's gospel outreach helped settle the tides for Martin Luther King, Jr.'s peaceful march to the U.S. Capitol. And don't forget that America's national anthem was the product of one of the greatest social movements of all time—the Revolutionary War, in which we Americans kicked the overbearing British off the debased island we rightfully pillaged and ransacked first.
The true madness begins now with conference tournaments
(03/04/11 6:00am)
When most of us talk about March Madness, we're talking about the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, that wonderful 64—sorry 68—team spectacle that gives us the yearly plethora of storylines: From Cinderella to disappointment, from the opening Thursday to Luther Vandross and ""One Shining Moment.""
Walker's budget repair bill targets DNR wardens
(03/01/11 6:00am)
On Saturday afternoon, I saw various protesters at the Capitol fighting for a number of causes. What really caught my attention, however, were the numerous Department of Natural Resources wardens present. I asked two of them, ""Is Scott Walker cutting your benefits, too?"" The only response they gave me was a grim nod. When I spoke to another warden, he responded by informing me that many DNR employees plan to retire shortly. When I ran across a forester outside of the Capitol, she was not happy about Gov. Scott Walker's plan. She told me DNR employees don't make much as it is and they are subject to added burdens from the budget repair bill.

Duggan makes history as Wisconsin sweeps Mankato
(02/21/11 6:00am)
Closing out the regular season with style, the Wisconsin women's hockey team put on a show at the All Seasons Arena in Mankato. The Badgers (24-2-2-2 WCHA, 30-2-2 overall) swept the Mavericks (7-20-1-0, 8-23-8-3) in a decisive manner, outscoring their opponent 13-1 over the weekend.
