Another week, another Weekly - hopefully we don't offend anyone too much with our Anticipation Index. We're pretty appalled ourselves that the crew over at NU athletics has absolutely no plan in place to recycle the waste accrued at our home football games. Just think of all those bottles full of alcohol that underage students bring to games, and of course, the thousands of plastic Diet Pepsis and Aquafinas strewn across the stadium (pg. 6).
So we have a few options: We can either wallow in our dorm room, watching An Inconvenient Truth, or get out there and start stalking James Van Der Beek! Or learn how to be a Punk! Or find out what it's like to be on the radio! (pgs. 2, 8 and 10).
Speaking of green issues (Happy Earth Day, by the way), we also looked into the absolutely bonkers activities that students around campus do to make some cash. Selling pens? Solving Rubik's Cubes? Being hot? (All on pg. 4.)
And for another kind of green, look directly to your right and be either shocked/appalled or surprised/disappointed depending on which side of our weekly survey you fall on. We're not judging - well, unless you're listening to Ashlee Simpson (pg. 12).
