They posted on Facebook: Most of the copies of our print edition for this week have gone missing, and we suspect that they were stolen. We are currently investigating, but I don’t know when or if more copies will become available.x Now, we know that Bucknell students would never do something like this. Clearly it must have been that everyone wanted to read about Missy. And who […]

Always wonder what you can do with your major? Well…maybe you can become the next Queen of England! It’s the Royal Wedding day and you can bet that this office full of women was truly excited this morning, some more than others of course.

Kate and Prince William were both Art History majors and now will become new figureheads in a long line of obsolete royalty and they will, no doubt, have paintings commissioned […]
