Facebook. Twitter. YouTube.  While some may say that Web 2.0 and social networking are the best ways to stay connected, they can also cause a lifetime of regret.

On Feb. 18, you published an article entitled “If your vagina could talk, what would it say?” It discussed the most recent production of “The Vagina Monologues” but unfortunately was riddled with mistakes and was an insult to those of us who take the show and its purpose so seriously.

One of the great things that comes with being a student at C of C is the opportunity to learn more about almost any subject conceivable.  Whether it is in the classroom or just from life experience, few will argue that one’s time in college is not a constant learning experience.

As most of the American population knows, next Thursday, Nov. 26, is what is commonly referred to as “Thanksgiving” in popular culture.  For most College of Charleston students, this will consist of visiting family, watching football, drinking beer and overall having a wonderful time celebrating the fact that the semester is almost over.
