I am occasionally saddened to remember we still live in the present. Perhaps that's an odd thing to say, but surely I'm not the only one. I've had countless discussions lamenting the decreasing likelihood of flying cars being widely available in eight years, as Back to the Future"" prophesized, and let's not even get started on how disappointing 2001 was.

Sarah Weiss isn't waiting for the grim specter of the Freshman 15 to come knocking at her door. This motivated freshman has developed a 14-point plan to combat the feared Frosh weight gain.

From Vonnegut to H.G. Wells, many students come to Madison in love with books, only to suppress their reading desires under the stress of midterms, research papers and the volumes of course reading UW-Madison throws at them.
