With $12.6 million research grants in 2004, the program ranks sixth among UA departments in research funding and expects a 5 percent increase in external funding as a result of the change.

The UA welcomes thousands of diverse and extraordinary students each year. An exceptional number of these students leave their mark upon this great campus as student leaders of clubs, organizations, fraternities, sororities, residence halls, college student governments, and the other countless associations created and led by students at the UA.

Alistair Chapman has been the champion of the student voice, serving us as our student body president for the past 12 months. And at noon today, his term will come to an end.

Before you go to bed tonight, pat yourself on the back for being a college student. Seth MacFarlane, creator and vocal star of "Family Guy" is in your debt ever since Fox resurrected the show this season.
"To me, the biggest audiences are colleges," MacFarlane said. "As far as the show being brought back, it was the adult 18-to-34 audience that did it and that's really the audience that we write for."

Exploring the female orgasm: coming to the point
Her body curls and clenches with tingles of pleasure, a feeling some UA women have yet to understand or experience.
Regardless, if a woman is exploring with the different types of orgasms, masturbating, or learning how to get off without faking it, experts agree being comfortable is essential for achieving an orgasm.
Though some women may feel like a victim of orgasmic dysfunction, or the inability to climax during sex, experts said this diagnosis is rare for young women.
