The first words from the new editor
1:08 AM 3/24/2008 — The University of Illinois campus is more than a community. It operates like a sovereign state, similar to the Vatican in Italy or Chicago (or at least the Windy City appears that way sometimes). Surrounded by cornfields in all directions, our seemingly secluded institution has taken on the identity of an autonomous state.

Being under-accomplished and feeling happy
12:15 PM 3/24/2008 — I'm not coming back to campus with a crisp tan. In fact, the final days of my spring break were spent hunkered down at home enduring a Chicago-style springtime snowstorm. No, I didn't build a snow fort after the fact either. Instead, I am pleased to report that after a nice job shadow experience with corporate America, I now have a vague understanding of what investment bankers do.
