Sleeping with your best friend can cause issues, but when it's same-sex hook-up, the rules change

Dear BedPost,
Improbability defined Ohio’s 58-56 win against Eastern Michigan on Saturday.
Coach Bob Boldon scratched his head when asked about the positives of Sunday’s contest.

Despite what Ohio University claims online, international students aren’t required to live in the same residence hall once they get on campus.
Although the outcomes were the same, this weekend’s pair of victories for Ohio came in completely different styles.
It doesn’t always take a study abroad trip to get a taste of a new culture.
I recently received an email about the initiative to create a “Tobacco Free OHIO” and personally, I was shocked. At an institution in which students are thought to have a reasonable amount of agency, it is ridiculous that the university would try to impose such a vague standard of “tobacco free” on its students. Secondhand cigarette smoke has its dangers, but to ban smokeless tobacco, electronic cigarettes (which have no verified empirical evidence for secondhand smoke dangers) and hookahs (no significant difference between a light smoker and a non-smoker, health-wise) campuswide is abhorrent even to this non-smoker. Not to incite a slippery-slope fallacy, but what’s next? A campuswide fast food ban? The university should deal with safety, academics and community (among other core principles), not policing the personal, private choices of anyone who sets foot here. I understand providing resources to help students quit smoking and I understand the right of non-smoking students not to be introduced to secondhand smoke unwillingly. However, subjecting all students who use tobacco products to this policy by forcing them off campus is a poor move. I’d like to hear the reasoning behind this initiative; it better be pretty good.
On Friday, the Board of Trustees approved the OHIO Guarantee Program (previously called guaranteed tuition), despite a student protest blockading its bus the day before in opposition to the plan.

Curling wands have become increasingly popular during the past year and I’ve heard from a few of my readers that they haven’t quite mastered the new hair tool. Everyone has different methods of styling hair, but for the beauty ’Cats who asked for my advice (and anyone else who may be curious), here is how I personally style my hair using a curling wand.
A local man, accused of manufacturing methamphetamine and charged with first- and second-degree drug felonies, is set to continue his trial with a hearing in February for a motion to suppress.

On a day in which Ohio had optimism of remaining undefeated in Mid-American Conference competition, Akron tainted the Bobcats’ once spotless record.
