It doesn’t take much to get a team pumped for a rivalry game.
For most students in higher education, college is merely the means to an end; it is only upon leaving school that they realize it has become a second home. Although Midwest metal legend Skeletonwitch has toured around the globe, band members never forgot their Athens roots.
Winning football games each fall Saturday is every college football team’s goal week in and week out.
This week will be death or glory for the front-runners in the Mid-American Conference.
Editor’s note: This is the second in a five-part series exploring the ghost stories and urban legends of Athens.
On a muggy, rainy day at Athens Country Club, junior Andrew Mlynarski asked Ohio coach Bob Cooley with a smirk, “Hey coach, do I look good today?”
Since its preseason started in August, Ohio has held practice at Ping Center, Peden Stadium and even the Ohio University Tennis Courts covered in a turf carpet. That said, it’s safe to say the Bobcats have experienced their fair share of adversity.
One thing that lady Bobcats do that really gets under my skin is taking the length of President McDavis’ current tenure to reply to my text messages.
Athens City Council approved an ordinance Monday night that gives the police department permission to trade 55 firearms to a Cleveland-based company for the cash to buy the city’s cops new guns.
In the Oct. 17 Post article, “Onlooker details alleged Court Street rape,” freshman Vance Blanc admitted to photographing a sexual encounter, which was possibly a rape, and distributing it on the Internet.
Despite how far society has come in viewing rape, prosecution and social advocates alike are saying there is still a long way to go.
Type the words “Ohio University” into any Internet search engine, and popular results such as “Bobcat” or “Athens” now also include news stories related to an alleged rape.
Fifty years ago, the Hocking River overflowed almost annually. Back then, Ohio University students considered the floods to be an expected nuisance rather than an unimaginable calamity.
The first time I saw my rapist after the attack, I struggled not to cry in front of my friends.
Crossover is an annual program portraying Africans’ diverse culture through dance, music and storytelling. It was held by the African Student Union on Saturday.
It was just going to be a hike near Ka’au Crater in Oahu, Hawaii; but for an Ohio University student studying in the state, it ended with an unexpected plunge from a cliff that could’ve ended her life.
What we are attached to says a lot about us and how we live. As Trey Anastasio sings in his song “Shine,” “You are what you lean on.” We are what we identify with, what we put our emotions into.
Ohio cruised past Canisius this weekend in Bird Arena, outscoring the Golden Griffins 16-3 and extending its winning streak to five games.
In light of the “alleged” rape during the Homecoming Weekend festivities (let’s face it — as long as the rapist isn’t an athlete, he’s going to prison), I am going to officially spearhead the charge of alumni calling for Student Senate President Nick Southall’s immediate resignation.
