Stop

helped some people get through some tough times, like when they broke up with their boyfriend of two weeks, or their mom refused to buy them that new video game.

But we are older now. Most of us, with the exception of a few, have grown up, so why do we need to return to our childhood via some mediocre bands who are just concerned with getting back into the limelight and making a few more bucks?

Isn’t it time that we let go of these teeny bopper bands and moved on to something better?

Quite frankly, it makes me embarrassed to say that I come from a generation that values this type of musical contribution, and I wish that these bands would just fall back off the face of the Earth like they did a few years ago.

To put it quite simply, reunions should be left for bands that are actually good.

Cabrini has achieved a lot of progress in the past few years and because of that progress they have begun to admit more students each year. But does Cabrini really have room for all of these students to live on campus?

Well if they don’t have room, they’ll make room. That seemed to be their mentality when the Rooymans center was converted into Rooymans Hall and East Residence Hall, West Residence Hall and the Cabrini Apartment Complex were created.

But Cabrini couldn’t stop there. They needed even more room to meet the living demands of the freshman crop. That’s where they got creative.

I sit in my room and realize that there’s just something about it that doesn’t seem like it was meant to be a bedroom. The reason I feel this way is because the room I live in used to be the study lounge for Dixon House.

Now some may say that I should be happy to have

shopping,

In My Opinion

Becoming good at saving or budgeting your money can take tons of stress off your back. Personally, I am not one of the best students at saving money, but since I’m getting older I’d like to become more responsible with my money and stop being such a shopaholic.

The main reason I am bad at saving money is because I love to shop. I can always find an excuse to buy something I like, even if I do not have the money for it at that particular time. Now that I am living off campus, starting a new job and paying more bills I such a large room and believe me, I really am grateful. However, I can’t help but feel guilty for those on the floor looking for some place to study that is calm and quiet.

Well, my room was originally intended to be a study lounge. It should not even be an option to convert lounges into rooms.

What about the library? People can go there to study right? Holy Spirit Library is open until 1 a.m. Monday through Thursday as well as Sunday. However, the library closes its doors at 8 p.m. on Friday and 4 p.m. on Saturday.

The absence of lounges and the limited hours of the library keep us from being able to study in to the late hours of the night.

East Residence Hall, Xavier Hall, Maguire House and Infante House are all equipped with study lounges, but what about Woodcrest Hall, Rooymans Hall and Dixon House? Are all undergraduate residents not created equal?

Cabrini has begun to address this problem in their five-year strategic plan, but what about the students on campus now?

It seems to me that Cabrini is willing to make sacrifices in order to get more tuition. So what if a handful of students have nowhere to study at night. There are always more students to admit--more students to disappoint.
