Dear Heights,
I must say that I object to the supposed "breaking news" update I received in my inbox last week regarding the maintenance worker's contract struggle. This story is not "new" or "breaking," but rather has been unfolding in town halls, classroom debates, and campus activist circles since the start of the semester.

This Halloween, my roommates (four straight men and one gay man) and I (a gay man) decided to dress up as the Village People.
I chose to be the Navy sailor, with a low v-neck cut uniform complete with cut-off sleeves and a sailor hat. On Friday, we celebrated Halloween with a registered party in our fabulously decorated on-campus apartment.
Unfortunately, one incident dampened what was a fantastic start to the Halloween weekend. Midway through about our fifth spin of "Y.M.C.A.," one of my straight roommates started dancing with me. Almost immediately, two of our guests took out their cameras, and amid laughter, began taking pictures as if we were animals in a zoo. It bothered me in the moment, but I was able to brush it off as an isolated incident.

Imagine sitting in Charlie's on any given weekday trying to study for your quiz that's in twenty minutes while simultaneously scarfing your fruit cup and quesadilla. You're tired. Fed up. You're doubting yourself.
Now imagine flinging your 'dilla aside and starting to belt out "Don't Stop Believin'" at the top of your lungs.

Flash mob.
A large crowd of people who spontaneously assemble in a public place and perform a synchronized movement. The movement grows in size, remains for a brief period of time, and then the crowd disperses. Onlookers and passer-bys are left to wonder what has just taken place in front of their eyes.

Regular sleeping habits are regularly relegated to the bottom of students' priority lists. This takes a serious toll on a student's physical and mental health.
In a recent study from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, it was found that as many as 15 percent of college-aged young people may have some form of depressive illness.
