First it was "Flavor of Love," then "Rock of Love." Now, it seems like VH1 will give anyone a reality dating show. And by "anyone," I literally mean anyone. A majority of VH1's programming has become nothing more than dating shows featuring has-beens, never-will-bes and rejects who have no relevance to today's world. (1) comment

For the most part, Americans understand the injustice of workplace discrimination. The average person has basic moral intelligence to realize that denying someone the opportunity to make a living based on race, gender, sexual orientation or anything other than the ability to complete the job they desire is nothing but garbage.

Dear Duo, My roommate is my best friend at Brockport. We spend most of our time together, eating, chilling and going out on the weekends. Lately, this girl in our hall has been stalking him like crazy. She is the most annoying person on the planet. All she does is flirt with him and comes over to our room all the time. (1) comment

Dear Career Counselor, I'm a transfer student coming in as a junior to Brockport, and I have no idea what Career Services does.

A "You-Are-Lame" dart to the anonymous drunk guy who wrote his phone number on the girls' whiteboards and "Fags" on the guys' boards in Gordon, and stole everyone's markers. - I know your number now A huge "Puke-sucks" dart to the stomach bug for knocking me out in the first week back. (1) comment

Conan bows out with grace, class

Bidding farewell to a beloved TV personality who went out with a bang, minus the drama

When Conan O'Brien took over "The Tonight Show" for Jay Leno in June, everything appeared to be peachy. Even though people were used to Leno, it wasn't a huge problem for viewers because they could watch him at an earlier hour. Unfortunately for NBC, this decision to scramble hosts, shows and time slots worked against them. (1) comment

From the editor, Perhaps the first 2010 edition of The Stylus came as a shock to you. We debuted our new columnist, Miss Dirty Deed, and her appearance has caused some ruckus. A sex column in a college newspaper is not new, nor is it commonplace. Some of the most prestigious and conservative college campuses have been printing them for years - many sprouting after "Sex and the City" became so popular. (1) comment

For him ... by her After last week's column about what men do wrong, it's time to give some credit to men about things they do well. I mean, they must be doing something right in order to keep women coming back for more, right? So, here it is, my list of things you should keep doing. (1) comment

Salinger's timelessness lives on

You've probably heard about the death of J.D. Salinger, who died Jan. 28 at the ripe old age of 91. Since then, there have been headlines like NPR's "It's Pretty Personal And All, But I'll Miss Salinger" and my personal favorite from the Onion: "Bunch of Phonies Mourn J. (0) comments

Read outside the (U.S.) box

From Conan to Balloon Boy to "Jersey Shore," America's infatuations have steadily grown from distasteful to disturbing. These are the topics that should go ignored - but instead are making headlines and headways into our everyday lives. In last week's Stylus, there were articles on Tiger Woods and Disney, yet not one of them gave note to the tragedy in Haiti. (0) comments

I live smack-dab in the middle of the gateway of drunkenness to campus. While it may sound appealing to have an easier commute to the bars or the obligatory drunk food, it's getting kind of annoying. The majority of the students who go out on weekends (and Sunday through Wednesday) are rather, um, loud while coming home. (0) comments

Dissolving Brockport's future?

Pondering a village name, and identity, switch with the prospect of combining with Sweden

Dissolving Brockport's future?

Students at Brockport could be amidst the confusion if the Brockport Tax Cutters succeed in making the Village of Brockport, the Town of Sweden. If the village is taken over by the town of Sweden, the face of what we know as Brockport will drastically change. (1) comment
