At Flagler College we get 500 pages per semester worth of printing in the library. Why not make the most out of your pages?

During the holidays, it’s no secret that people tend to spend more money.

The costs and methods of repair for Wiley Hall’s damage depend on two things: whether the building is considered “historical” and whether the damage affected the building’s structure.

2012 features huge explosions of the earth as it falls apart. Roland Emmerich has pretty much created the be-all-end-all disaster film. Anything else he does will just seem like a regression now, because the scope of this film is just too huge for it to be topped again.

Drift Magazine’s Invisible Children benefit concert missed the point.

Held at Café Eleven on Nov. 14, the Invisible Children benefit concert focused on partying and listening to live music, but lacked support for displaced Ugandan children.

Tonight was a must-win for the Saints, and they played like it. The entire match was close, and the pace was set in the first 10 minutes when neither team had a lead of more than two points.

There were quite a few tips as opposed to kills, and that was very bothersome.
