Back to Business

Apparently, Saint Louis University is moving up in the world. Our academic standing is decent. We still tout our standing as one of the top five Catholic schools in the nation (even if we aren't "controlled by a religious creed"). We regularly flaunt our 750,000 cumulative service hours in press releases and as a selling point to potential freshmen.

A Fresh Start

New Year's resolutions are serious. They test your mental and physical endurance. They reveal your innermost fears and desires. And, when used correctly, they provide yet another chance to suffocate those hedonistic habits you love to hate. That being said, here are some New Year's resolutions that will vex you, impress you and make your life a little bit better.

Well, the semester is nearly over. Soon, students will camp out the library and Busch Student Center well past the witching hour, studying for finals, and we will board planes, trains and automobiles and head toward home. But before you settle into the hectic monotony of the holiday season, let's take a moment to remember five history-making events you witnessed during the fall of 2006.

House and Home

Editorial Board • November 30, 2006

As the members of the Saint Louis University community, we must stick up for our housing interests. We must explicitly state what we expect. We must identify how we want to live at SLU and then make it happen. That being said, we've complied a short list of improvements we'd like to see on campus.

What We Share

Diana L. Benanti • November 30, 2006

On Nov. 20, 2006, approximately 40 students met with the provost, the vice president for student development, the assistant vice president for student development, the director of student life and the director of campus ministry to discuss the Oct. 9 Busch Student Center confrontation between the "unnamed" professor and Rainbow Alliance members.

Striving for Justice

defaultuser • November 16, 2006

On Oct. 9, 2006, an "unnamed" professor harassed Rainbow Alliance students in the Busch Student Center. Don't let this seep into oblivion. Don't just let it go. When a distasteful public display of ignorance jeopardizes the confidence and security of Saint Louis University students, it is your duty to know about it and our duty to report to you.

Rainbow Alliance Attacked: Danger Zone

UNews Staff • November 9, 2006

A hate crime occurred in the Busch Student Center one month ago, and nobody did a thing about until this week. On Oct. 9, 2006, an unnamed University professor berated four Rainbow Alliance members manning a table in the BSC. He purportedly assaulted the students, shouting that God did not approve of their lifestyles.

If the Price is Right…

UNews Staff • November 9, 2006

Saint Louis University is willing to sell its Jesuit identity-if the price is right. To help finance our $80 million arena, SLU received $8 million in public funds from the St. Louis Board of Aldermen. We got the money from a fund dedicated to redeveloping Grand Center, St.
