FEATURED SHORT STORY: Summer of '95 by Michael Ewing


SUMMER OF ‘95

I pulled the pillow over my aching head and tried to figure out a way of not going into work. The night before I had gone out drinking at Shy’s with Scott and Justine for their anniversary and had overindulged. Yesterday, my boss, Gregg, had asked me for five more names for layoffs and it was easy to drink more than I should have. God, I hated my job.

CAMPUS RAPE Open letter to University Presidents, Administrators, Boards of Trustees and Professors

Dear Sirs,

One which concerns each and every one of you university professionals is the lack of a moral compass evidenced by those in a position of authority.
When did educators start believing it was ok for anyone to have sex with an extremely drunk young person?
