Bookstore bites the big one

It is now February, and the bookstore is still holding out. Students are still pushing and fighting for the last few books left like it was the first week of classes.

It has been my experience that the bookstore has failed the students by not having the books available.

Effects of binge drinking greater than realized

With the recent annual event of Spring Fling, came with it the annual day of binge drinking for many Cabrini students. Many of the students start drinking early in the afternoon and continued well into the night. The majority of the time college students do not realize the effects of binge drinking.

For better or for worse?

Since 1996 the number of people who received their master's degrees has decreased by 3.4 percent.

Many people are getting higher degrees and many fields of work are becoming more competitive due to the fact that everyone is at the same skill level.

Start moving and stop your complaining

Get Involved! This is now a Cabrini symbol that is featured on many flyers, posters and other publications. Getting involved is just what Cabrini wants students to do. If students do not get involved, how do they expect things to change? It seems to me that college students are the first people to complain about everything, but the last people to do anything about it.
