DePauw has integrity - kind of. In discussing his plagiarism policy, one of my professors quipped, "on this campus, I think you would be better off caught selling heroine than plagiarizing." While the statement may be over-the-top, it brings to light the caliber of academic integrity at DePauw.

Easier isn't always better.
The proposed Interfraternity Council changes to the beginning of men's recruitment would certainly place less of a burden on each individual fraternity. However, these shortcuts undermine the process of men's rush.
The traditional first round wherein all men interested in greek life visit each of the 11 IFC-member fraternities may be a thing of the past come January.

Five years ago, I was a young U.S. Marine stationed in New Orleans, La. As a Marine, I was trained to respond to any situation with speed, intensity and a level head; but when Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast, I had no idea how to respond. Generally, any New Orleans resident can tell you that hurricane evacuations happen just about every week during the summer, so by late August 2005, we all left the city of New Orleans thinking this was another false alarm and that we would be back in a day or two.

Nothing screams senior independence more than being forced into the mosh pit that is the Hub at lunch time.
Wait, what?
Such is life as a senior in Rector Village.
Students, mostly freshmen, jam into the Hub at 11:30 a.m. and try to get their hands on the food offered for the lunch hour.

I began to develop favorites in music at a very early age, and being surrounded by a family full of musicians never hindered that process. My mother was and still is an avid Stevie Nicks follower, and my dad, although one of U2's biggest fans, always loved to play bluegrass and country on his old acoustic.

After more than a decade, university administration finally made the momentous decision to establish domestic partnership benefits for Eastern employees.
What this means for faculty and staff members is that if their living partners are over 18 years old, not a relative, not employed by the homeowner and ineligible for Medicare, then they will receive extended benefits through the university.
