The hit series Shameless hasn’t even hit its ninth season, but star Emmy Rossum (Fiona Gallagher) has already stepped into the show’s future – a future without her in it. Rossum, who has played one of the main characters since 2011, wrote a goodbye letter for her Facebook viewers on Aug. 30. “The opportunity to play Fiona has been a ...

Rant of the Week “The Chaos Roulette Magic Event held by the Gamer’s Gathering on Thursday was a lot of fun. It was a great way to spend an evening with people of all skill levels in one of our favorite card games. It was a new spin on being a nerd!” Rave of the Week “I attemped to work ...

Rant of the Week: “The library is supposed to be quiet, so please stop getting offended when someone gives you an evil eye when you’re carrying on a 2-hour conversation on the phone and the volume of your voice is on 100. I have no problem with you answering the phone, but if I can hear you and the person ...

Rant of the Week There is nothing I hate more than walking on campus and walking through a cloud of cigarette smoke. The most irritating thing is getting stuck behind someone smoking a cigarette. I don’t smoke, so I don’t want to smell like smoke. Either VSU campus should be a non-smoking campus or there should be designated areas on ...

I hated not being able ...

Rant I’m actually going to rant against nature: When you wash your car on Monday, and your car looks like a diseased chia pet due to the pollen on Tuesday, something is wrong. Rave Thank you, VSU, for showing movies to us for free in the Student Union. Keep them coming! Sam Raffield, Sophomore, Journalism

RANT When did individuality become a crime?  It bugs me to see so many students clown people who they think are “weird” for having a unique sense of style.
