In the past few years, Clarkson has done many great things to promote environmental awareness and sustainability. The school has hugely improved its recycling program, gotten rid of Styrofoam take-out containers, and switched to biodegradable silverware instead of plastic.
Guinness
by Alex Brown in Features
In honor of Ben, I decided to write my first beer article on one of his favorites, Guinness. I have had Guinness several times before. Guinness is a dark beer that hails from Arthur Guinness' brewery in Dublin, Ireland.
I particularly enjoy this beer because it is rich in taste and smooth to drink.

Many people take for granted reliable access to clean water; yet, according to the World Health Organization, more than one billion people use unsafe sources of drinking water. The problem is exacerbated by the global trend towards urbanization that marginalizes the rural poor, resulting in a cycle of ill-health and poverty within which children are typically the first to suffer from the burden of disease caused by dirty water and poor hygiene.

This week I would like to focus on the abdominal muscles. Abdominals are one of the most underrated "strength muscle groups." Most people want to have rock hard, six pack abs.

NATURE'S HUMANS
by Stanley I. Onyewuchi in Features
we are the lucky ones
we are the enlightened ones
we are the simple and the wise
we are the earth's cycle
and science is our guide.
we make no heaven-bound excuses
and seek no messiahs,
but we are not without a messiah,
our savior is humanity.
our rules are your rules and my rules,
we rule our own destiny against chance's failing hand.

June 20 through the 29 were the most exciting days of my life. I spent those ten days on the Tragos Quest to Greece, the capstone of Sigma Phi Epsilon's Leadership Continuum. Each year, 16 undergraduates are chosen from the 14,000 SigEps nationwide to participate in the Quest through a rigorous application process.

A sorority is thought of as a thorn in the side of a campus far too often. Stereotypes have them wreaking havoc among the towns and turning innocent girls into party animals. These false connotations are exactly what the three Clarkson University sororities aim to disprove.

In a nutshell, the Interfraternity Council, or IFC, is the direct governing body for Clarkson fraternities. What does IFC's responsibility entail? The average person would assume that the council exists for the purpose of cracking down on fraternities. In actuality, IFC plays a more significant role.
