A Look Back At Bill O'Reilly's Worst Moments

Last week, Bill O'Reilly was (finally) fired from Fox News due to his repeated sexual harassment. Apparently, throughout his time at Fox News, he threatened to end the careers of the women who refused to sleep with him, once called a black woman "hot chocolate" and even called female colleagues just to masturbate on the phone. But this wasn't the first time Bill O'Reilly has said or done something utterly morally repugnant. Over the course of his career at Fox News he:

1. Claimed that lesbian gangs were rampaging across the US and "indoctrinating" innocent young girls.

2. Infamously said that slaves who were forced to build the White House were "well-fed and had decent lodgings." After he was rightfully called out for his remarks, he just doubled down.

3. Flipped out at the son of a 9/11 victim because he did not support the US' imperialist War on Terror.

4.Told Marc Lamont Hill (a black professor at Columbia) that he looked like a cocaine dealer.

5. Claimed that trans people were part of a conspiracy to make Americans "not believe in gender."

6. Justified Freddie Gray's murder by arguing he was killed because of his "lifestyle."

7. Hosted an intensely racist and exploitative piece about East Asian people living in Chinatown.

8. Said that black people "are ill-educated and have tattoos on their foreheads."

9. Compared queer people to al Qaeda.

10. Complained that the Left was taking power away from the "white establishment."

So bye, Bill, we absolutely will not miss you.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
