A week ago today, my friend Ryan died. I had never lost a friend before. I wasn't sure what to say or think. I felt disoriented for days. I had to go to class, work and fulfill other duties, but it was like my ears were ringing from an M-80 that exploded too close to my head.

Levi Bulgar said he's bringing back the Summer Senate.
As student body president elect, he has a great idea. However, more initiative needs to be taken to ensure the success of this plan, and Bulgar himself needs to set bigger goals for himself.

Words usually flow freely to me. I can flex my vocabulary muscles on cue and rattle off 17 synonyms for the word depressed. On Tuesday night, all words escaped me. That's when SIUC senior Ryan Rendleman died in a car accident. Ryan was a friend to all his co-workers at the Daily Egyptian and an inspiration to us all.

It's time that Pfizer made an oral contraceptive for men. Admittedly, there are reasons besides the prevention of pregnancy for women to take oral contraceptives, but it seems to me that it's a little misogynistic for a major drug company to make a pill that cures the inability to achieve an erection but not to make a pill to help men do their part to prevent an unwanted pregnancy.

With every end, there is a new beginning. Haunted by the surgical scars from two blown ACLs and the deep throbbing pain of a strained UCL in my elbow, my collegiate baseball career was left in shambles. For two years, I fought through the injuries, but in vain.

Everyone has heard of the "feminist movement," but many people are unaware of a growing movement in a similar direction - only with our male counterparts.
