Election officials have concluded the 100 votes cast by students at Gordon Commons in Tuesday’s spring primary were submitted by accident, as students believed they were taking a poll on their favorite University Housing meal.
Dance teams from all over the Midwest are gathering in Madison this weekend for an India Students’ Association-hosted dance competition that is truly one of a kind. The aptly titled, “Aa Dekhen Zara” translates to “Come Take A Look,” and that is exactly what students should do, according to Nivkiran Dhillon, the captain of UW’s team, School of Bhangra.
The Board of Estimates unanimously approved an ordinance Monday requiring private contractors with the city of Madison to give the same benefits, such as health insurance, to those in domestic partnerships as married couples.
In the first semester since the program began, nearly 90 percent of UW-Madison students required to take a course on alcohol consumption safety found it beneficial, according to university health experts, though one participant disagreed.
Not long after I first began using the Internet in mid-2001, I found myself patronizing certain websites I found funny or interesting-most times both. Over time I noticed these web forums are in themselves small communities with each person contributing their own material or thoughts, which define that specific forum. These societies have their own citizens, their own humor and their own general will. All small groups have a mini-culture, so what?
In a decision that is frustrating members of one UW-Madison student group, UW Chancellor David Ward announced Tuesday the university will enter a period of mediation with adidas in an attempt to resolve the dispute over whether or not the company owes 2,800 unemployed workers severance pay.
When the No. 15/17 Wisconsin men’s basketball team (8-4 Big Ten, 19-6 overall) takes on Penn State (3-10, 11-15) Sunday the athletic department will celebrate the 10th anniversary of the 2002 Badgers team.
Rooney Mara's turn as Swedish author Stieg Larsson's pierced, tattoo-clad, anti-social Lisbeth Salander in David Fincher's American film adaptation of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" this past December proved to be thoroughly enthralling-enough even to land her a nomination for Best Actress at the 2012 Academy Awards later this month. While Swedish actress Noomi Rapace got the first crack at the character in the Danish film adaptations of Larsson's Millennium trilogy, Mara managed to do the character better justice in her portrayal by imbuing the ass-kicking, name-taking Salander with the undertone of vulnerability that was missing from Rapace's pure bad ass. Although this thread of humanity that Mara brings to the role certainly complicates the character of Lisbeth Salander, there is no doubt that she qualifies as the archetypal anti-hero, a trope that is becoming more and more common in our culture.
Welp, tomorrow is Valentine's Day, and for the first time in two years I will be celebrating the holiday alone. But for the love of Cupid do not pity me. If I am being honest, I have never really cared for the holiday, regardless of what my Facebook relationship status listed me as. It is all a bit too hokey, and on a day when all things are expected to be over the top, no relationship can live up to the epic "Boy Meets World" romances I longed for as a preteen.

Generally, when I pick books to read for fun, I prefer older books. I have nothing wrong with newer titles-I do not find them puerile and immature, or anything silly like that-but I find, by and large, that I gravitate towards the tried and true in literature. Especially books from the 20s and 30s-Fitzgerald, Hemingway, Faulkner, Joyce and Woolf, those sort of people.
While the UW aims to strengthen ties with China, the communist nation has been criticized for its treatment of Tibet. A small, but vocal Tibetan population in Madison questions the partnership. This is the second article of the three-part series explores that the issue.
As much as I love the exploration and discovery in massive open-world role-playing games (RPGs), their unintuitive combat systems have always tempered my enthusiasm. Intense, fluid combat and large scale RPGs always seemed mutually exclusive, but "Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning" successfully bridges this gap. While sticking closely to typical RPG conventions, the dynamic action of "Reckoning" sets it apart from other role-playing games.
Dear Erica,
There is great suffering in our world. To pretend that you, or others aren't suffering at some points in time is to gloss over the realities of life. We all wish for a world without pain, but a world without suffering is a world without life. I accept this notion, but I reject the "suffering" projected by certain political and ideological interests.
A hazardous materials crew, police officers, ambulances and fire trucks responded to a chemical spill in a UW-Madison biochemistry laboratory after a graduate student spilled a highly flammable solvent, injuring one person.
Anchoring your movie with a main character that is utterly unlikable and almost completely devoid of admirable qualities is a dangerous move. Aside from the innate human interest in just desserts and seeing bad things happen to bad people, there aren't many ways to win over an audience's interest, let alone affection, with a portrait of a detestable human being.
