This is an ugly month for college students. Late March marks roughly six months since we've seen a full sunny week. It's been roughly half a year since we haven't had to intern all day, go to class all night and then write papers to the pale flicker of late-night infomercials.

First aired as a movie in 2006, "High School Musical" soared to popularity unseen by previous Disney Channel Original Movies. Then came the sing-along and dance-along versions so that fans could trip over their preadolescent limbs while learning the moves to "We're All In This Together." Then the album, with those sugar sweet but oh-so-catchy lyrics, climbed to the top of the charts, becoming the top-selling album of 2006.

It's a sad truth most students don't realize until graduation: College is debt. Rising tuition costs, inflated housing and meal plans, the biannual agony of textbooks and transportation fees and, of course, the costs of living culminate into a seemingly insurmountable, stress-inducing catastrophe that most students remedy with private loans, which add interest to an already devastating sum.
Most of the media chatter about the Washington Capitals' chances in the 2007-2008 season was relatively positive.

We've witnessed quite a deal this fall semester. Merely a few months after AU students harassed a White House chief of staff, the Princeton Review stripped us of our "most politically active" status. After months of complaining about D.C. cab rates, the mayor heeded our suggestions and cab drivers went on strike. From misleading surveys to protests, a cappella performance space squabbles to AUCC funding crises, this page has editorialized on a great deal of controversy this semester. The spring is sure to be just as eventful.

All signs point toward some economic problems in the near future. Oil will soon race past $100 a barrel, interest rates are bottomed out, the dollar is heading toward lows that may no longer be healthy and, since the subprime mortgage crisis of this summer, lending practices have yet to recover. Even Fed Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke says growth will slow. Unfortunately, economic recession is part of life. Since World War II, we have had 10 of them, usually lasting an average of eight to 12 months.
Students affected by the flooding on the north side of Letts Terrace should be able to move back into their rooms by Friday, according to Housing and Dining Executive Director Chris Moody.
