Should you reward a disobedient child with candy? No - at least, you aren't a good parent if you do. So, should you reward a bum for his laziness with your spare change? No - at least, you aren't a good citizen if you do.
You may ask yourself, "What does this guy know about kids?" or, "Why does this guy not like homeless people?"
To begin with, I have always known there are a lot of homeless people in Philadelphia; you see them around 7- Eleven all the time.

Ah, this year's very last issue of the Opportunity. I still remember my first oppy editorial like it was yesterday but I already feel like a veteran. I don't mean a veteran at writing editorials (I still struggle with that), but I just know how each issue is going to turn out.

Every human being lives inside the creations and interpretations of his mind, for we are only our thoughts. The way we conceive the world is our reality; it is unique to each individual because his perception of his environment and personal experiences are vastly different from everyone else's - as the old saying goes: "No two minds are alike.

I have a few responses to the comments in the editorial titled "First FestivALL event a success" in the May 6 edition of The Review.
First, "Or, possibly, have one of the local cover bands finish out the day on the Green and play for the students. This way the university could make FestivALL an all inclusive even[t] for everyone to enjoy.

This was the first year my organization was eligible to receive funding from SAFAC, which was very exciting. We received our annual allocation, and I was more than happy with the amount awarded. This was money that we never had before, and it will benefit our members as well as the Drexel community.

When I first came to UMass from the active-duty Navy in January of 2007, I was immediately struck by the relatively-poor resources on campus for veterans. From the inept transfer "orientation," to the endless arguments with financial aid over my veteran status, to the cold treatment by the housing assignments office, my transition from the military to the UMass community was anything but smooth.

On the last day of classes, I ran into my freshman advisor on Locust Walk. She and I had a quick catch-up as we walked together before the mayhem of Hey Day began.
The last time we had really talked was my sophomore year, when I had just declared my American History major and thought I wanted to be a political journalist.

Over the course of the last four years, the Class of 2008 has learned a lot about life - and taught us just as much.
As mentors and friends of the other undergraduate classes, the graduating seniors will be sorely missed.
With their days as Penn students numbered, this year's senior class can review their time at Penn with pride, and the future looks nothing but bright.

The theory of evolution is arguably the most misunderstood theory in all of science. In a recent poll conducted by USA Today, it was found that almost half of Americans (47%) believe that evolution is either definitely or probably not true. But almost all scientists (95%) believe the theory to be either definitely or most likely true.

A few months ago, Mike Gravel was just another politician vying for the endorsement of the Democratic Party in the 2008 presidential election.
You've probably never heard of him, but those who have know him to be a man of interesting politics. Arguably, those politics got a lot more interesting on March 25 when, after suffering defeat in the primaries, the former Alaskan senator changed his tune.

As members of the Hunter Women's Rights Coalition, we would like to give my sincerest thanks to outgoing Vice President Ben Siegel for his dedication and service. Unfortunately for us, he is graduating and cannot remain an officer. His hard work and commitment to the club, its members and feminism are exemplary for women and men alike.

Two weeks ago, my brother appeared to have worn himself ragged, mulling over the daunting decision of what to do with his life over the next four years. The worry ate at him as he wondered whether to choose a college that would cost him $190,000 by the time he graduated in 2012, or a college that would more or less pay him to attend, and give him a free MacBook to boot.

I was talking to a friend jokingly that architect Ieoh Ming Pei, more commonly know as I.M. Pei, was "the man" because he designs sweet buildings like the Washington Memorial, Mount Vesuvius and the Statue of Liberty.
Just kidding. Architect majors, chill.

When I first started out as the sex columnist, it threw me into local celebrity status. I found it amazing how suddenly TKE guys were trying to make appointments to have sex with me so that they could get an "exclusive." Then again, that just shows how little the boys of TKE actually know (Sorry, I had to take one last dig at you guys, at least most of you have been good sports about it).

What could be more despicable than having two dogs fight for entertainment? People who torture animals for fun are among the most detested of human beings and rightly so. Of course human beings should be our prime concern and of the most importance, but that doesn't mean we don't also care about other sentient beings too, even if their nervous system isn't quite as complicated as our own.

Last weekend, YC Dean David Srolovitz hung out with his students on the Wilf Campus. Other than it being a sentimental farewell to Rabbi Zevulun Charlop as RIETS Dean, there was nothing particularly special about the Shabbat schedule. No special Q&A session for students to meet their dean.

If I were to leave YU with but one piece of advice, it would be that it's the little things that matter. I mean, the formula behind YU makes a lot of sense. It is a Yeshiva, and a University - espousing the often touted philosophies of Torah u-Madda, and Modern Orthodoxy.

By Zev Eleff I tried so hard. With so much clarity, I recall my first article assignment for The Commentator. I was to interview a sophomore who spent his summer scuba diving off the Florida Keys in search for traces of wrecked sailboats. It was a 579-word feature piece about some kid who liked to snorkel, and I was determined to impress my editor-in-chief.

With the end of year quickly approaching, organizations throughout the college are hosting a plethora of award ceremonies honoring student leaders. I had the privilege of attending two such events.

Ducks can't read. And a lot of college students don't bother to either. When walking across campus with friends, searching for the perfect place for a game of ultimate frisbee, soccer or muggle quidditch, little yellow signs are hardly on our radar. But perhaps they should be.
