A non-violent, campuswide strike has been declared for today, as voted on by 99.5 percent of the 1,729 person Occupy UC Davis General Assembly last Monday; it has been set to coincide with the statewide UC Regents meeting. The strike — which according to the general assembly is protesting the Board of Regents’ inadequacy to […]

Dear Gabby, My boyfriend has been friends with this girl for a while and they’ve always been flirty with each other. We have been in a relationship for a couple years and are very happy, but he and his friend continue to say that they love each other. I confronted him about it, and he […]

Faculty and staff will have a chance to discuss the pepper spray incident with Chancellor Katehi, Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor Ralph Hexter and interim UC Davis Police Chief Matt Carmichael.

I’m a firm believer that college is the perfect time to make all of life’s really bad decisions. I suggest that before graduation, everyone should drink too much, eat too much, party too much and do some really dangerous stuff, like playing tennis with a ball that’s been set on fire. Well, maybe not the […]

It is amazing that two teams can be so similar, and yet at the same time so different. UC Davis men’s and women’s basketball both started this year with a new head coach, and without a pair of last season’s stars. Both teams even employ zone defenses and preach a strategy that emphasizes holding opponents […]

On Nov. 18, the police pepper sprayed non-violent UC Davis student protesters — and they spurred a worldwide debate about free speech, peaceable assembly and police brutality. The incident has brought up such questions as: were first amendment rights to free speech and peaceable assembly confiscated from students? Were police using excessive force? Will Creeley, […]

The UC Davis Theater Department’s fall season production of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is a worthy rendition of the original, written by Tom Stoppard. Absurdest in nature, the two and a half hour long play sees to it that the secondary characters Rosencrantz and Guildenstern (originally from Hamlet) get their share of existential reasoning. […]

I know it’s “like freezing cold” outside, that autumn leaves are cute, that there are just a few days ‘til Thanksgiving. I know homework and testing is the hellish bane of your existence … but small talk is the bane of mine. Why won’t anyone tell me something new? Most importantly, why must everyone interminably […]

I cannot begin to express my overwhelming pride in our community that I felt at Monday’s rally. At the same time, I am deeply, deeply humbled by the solidarity and commitment displayed and felt at the event. I am writing today as a person who never really participated in any protest, and even less so […]

For students who find themselves too busy to do their laundry, Davis’ own The Laundry Lounge can take care of that for them. After scheduling of an appointment, a Laundry Lounge van will pick up dirty laundry from a given location, take it to be washed and then return it for free. Owners, siblings Max […]
