Sunday night: the time is 11:59 p.m., and a panicking student has completed three pages out of a 20 page paper. The need to finish the dreaded MIOP becomes clearer and clearer as the deadline approaches slowly but surely. More than likely it'll be completed on time.
They are there in the time of need. They are soldiers, soldiers that will fight for freedom and give their lives for the greater good. What do we give them? We give them lack of support.

Beyond what knowledge we take out of our classes, a large part of the experience that we gain from college is the friendships and relationships we forge with the campus community. As I think retrospectively on my past four years as a UT student, I realize how many great friendships I have formed and how I have been inspired by and relied on advice and guidance from these countless students, faculty and staff.
Dear Goodbye, It is the time when I have to say farewell to the staff and readers of The Minaret. Though I have not attended UT four full years, I have connections to this place that I will take with me everywhere. Since coming here in 2005, I watched myself grow not only to a better journalist but a better person.
Two years as the editor of a campus newspaper is something I wouldn't have wished upon anyone when I took the job. I must have been a masochist or a glutton for punishment to take the job with barely a staff. Everything added up to angry e-mails from readers, frustrating errors and the 4 a.
