Girls who pose for Playboy hypocritical for shunning Wildcat
Beautiful women have always been forced to prove they're more than just looks, but the behavior of some who posed for Playboy this week suggests that they just don't get it.
With the Arizona Daily Wildcat attending the photo shoots to write a story about the UA's pithy turnout (15 on the first day versus ASU's 200), almost all the women refused to be interviewed, named or photographed (before they took off their clothes, of course).
It just doesn't make sense. They're posing in the raw for a magazine with millions of subscribers but won't let us put their name in the Wildcat, circulation 30,000.
Like, no way, girl.
Despite being far off campus, students should go to Spring Fling
Spring Fling hasn't been the same ever since it moved off campus in 2001. Although Spring Fling planners say the lack of disability access has made the UA Mall a bad location for the event, it's just not the same when it's miles north of campus.
If it weren't for the extensive participation of clubs on campus, it would seem like any other generic, boring carnival.
Still, students should attend the event, if only because planners have been saying that it's at risk precisely because attendance hasn't been as high as anticipated.
Or perhaps students shouldn't go, and the carnival will have to be shrunk down to be small enough to fit on the Mall again ...
New lot-specific parking a good parking solution on campus
Yesterday the oft-attacked Parking and Transportation Services announced several changes to parking on campus, effective this fall.
Among them are moderate fee increases, along with the creation of more lot-specific parking permits. The problem had been the unpredictability of knowing where to park each day, with gas and time wasted in the process.
We say letting more students know where they're going to park each day makes sense.
Unfortunately for PTS, however, we're guessing they'll still continue as perhaps the least popular department on campus.
