Hawkeye Republican

BECAUSE HAWKEYE FEVER IS CONTAGIOUS AND OFTEN TRANSMITTED IN THE HALLS OF BURGE: Campus is abuzz. Following the resounding defeat of Ohio State yesterday...oh wait, I'm living in an alternative universe. I mean, following our astounding defeat yesterday, we've got a week of great festivities to look forward to here on campus. Like probably not beating Illinois. Depressing.

Seriously though folks, it's Homecoming time! So, get that school spirit in gear--hang banners, cause Havoc at Hubbard or march in a parade like those good old days in band! According to the official Homecoming website (seriously, it's even hosted by the Office of Student Life), the schedule is as follows:

Well, looks like a lot to look forward to, eh? Seriously, anything that is sponsored by Taco Bell has got to be good--or at least cheap and slightly upsetting to the stomach. I digress.
