ksu sucks

I didn't realize that the student union bookstore selection was really that bad. Whenever I take someone to campus, that's one of the 'wow' factors. If your talking about overall distribution of apparel, that's one thing, but I think our bookstore is more than sufficient.

I'm pretty sure that the Chemistry department has a little cook-off over there every year on National Chemistry Day. So it's doable there as well.

Yeah I'd love to see Central Hower as well. I really hope that UA and APS can somehow make it happen.

On second thought, that's a damn good idea. Every crack addict in greater Akron would be there. Lord knows they'd be crazier fans than most of the students.

What, donate a pint and get a ticket?Haha, maybe I should be more specific. The plasma center is apparently trying to move to a different location. UA offered them a deal. I'm not sure what they want to do with the land. Just rumors, and at this point, it's just talk. That's why it's not public. I know no one on the "inside", I just heard it on another message board. Pure rumor.

As usual, Dave emerges as a voice of reason. I love the actual debate going on as well, but as he said, the mudslinging is getting in the way of healthy discourse.

I heard a rumor that the plasma center and the university are negotiating over a possible deal. Nothing official yet.

I stole this from the Can't state bbs boards...http://lsia.tamu.edu/EM-nat-champs.htm FWIW, Akron made it in at number 4.

That's kind of the point.

Especially soccer jerseys. I can't tell you how long I've wanted an authentic Zakuani Zips jersey.

Dude, genius. Absolute genius. I especially like the idea of posting these ads in other states. When I was in junior high, my friends and I always picked the Zips in NCAA football '05 because of the overall obscurity of the name. Our original reason for picking Akron was because my friend had a zips hat. He said some guy walked up to him and handed him the hat. My friend says, "what's this?" He says "it's a zip." Me and my friend always laughed. Wtf? Why is a kangaroo called a zip? It was that obscurity and frankly, the humor, that drove us to use Akron in EVERYTHING from then on. The ironic part is that I eventually ended up here as a student. I never thought that would happen.And while we're on the topic of marketing...why isn't the whole' FEAR THE ROO' Logo combined with akron football more often. There's only shirts that say 'Akron football' or other Fear the Roo shirts. All the sports should have their own version of Fear the roo apparel!

My high school team played in the same conference as his. I've been hearing things about this kid since he was a freshman. Definitely an awesome addition.

This is my first year off campus, so I'm hoping the parking twitter page is working.

http://www.uakron.edu/im/online-newsroom/p...na%20connectionUA signs educational agreement with China’s prestigious Peking University The article title is 'The China connection'. Sounds like some sort of bad rap song. Whatever happenend to that asian rapper?Answer: I don't know why an Asian guy rapping is so funny.

In normal situations, most kids who would verbal to us as a backup plan probably aren't the guys we need to be recruiting. I agree with everyone else, give it some time. If in a half year we still haven't seen any more verbals...panic(not going to happen).

Yeah but no girls in his dorm room. One sacrifice for another.

I wish him luck. He probably got tired of being on the practice team. Can't blame him.

Noted as a hub of brilliant minds from around the globe, these games featured about 80 competitions and attracted more than 500 contestants from 21 different countries.

Bowser is going to pull a re-run of last years Can't game and catch it over the back of a MSU defender in the back of the endzone. I still have that picture on my laptop.

Unless Akron see's a top 25 season, not all of the games at the Info will be a sell out like the first few should be. That said, I hope the university uses the packed stadium and tailgaters for media purposes. That is, I hope the university take tons of pictures and even record some videos for future commercials or ads. Nothing sells potential students more than shots of our beautiful campus and the awesome new stadium filled with rabid fans.Unlike some other schools in Ohio, Akron can't rely on it's reputation to get by. We all realize that, but apparently the University doesn't. I'm not from around Akron, and I originally didn't want to visit. After visiting, the only thing I could think was, how in the hell didn't I know about this? Marketing. Not just for athletics, but for the university as a whole. After all, that's what this stadium is.

Yeah, this is way too off topic for the off topic forum.Go ahead and lock it. But at least give a relevant reason.

IMO, that's the big one. A project that has an effect so widespread across the entire university should involve a combined effort from all the separate departments.

Haha, this is nothing short of incredible.

FWIW, here's a list of all the fees I've been charged for the fall semester. Notice that the first four are for courses.
