Fashion for Passion
On Feb 9. Saint Leo University’s Student Activities Board along with Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity Incorporated and the school’s very own Lioness dancers hosted a fashion show dedicated to a week of love for Valentine’s Day. The event contained Valentine’s Day fashion preparation, prizes and entertainment provided by various students and organizations on and off campus.
WWE 2015 Hall of Fame Inductees Starting to Fill Out
Each year, before the biggest event on the WWE, formerly known as World Wrestling Entertainment, calendar, WrestleMania, the WWE honors professional wrestling’s past by inducting the men and women that helped pave the way for the current pro wrestlers to follow.
More than Talent
At the age of nineteen, most sophomores come back to school finally adjusted and ready to begin a new year. This is the prime time for students to really get into their major, and start focusing on who they want to be and what they want to do. They have made it through their first year, which most likely brought many overwhelming and anxious feelings along with a great deal of change and challenges. Some students come from areas that are close to home, and others travel quite a large distance. Imagine traveling far, but also seeing the college you chose to attend for the first time the day you arrive, entering into a brand new culture entirely, speaking a primary language different from the one that is spoken at school, searching for excellent academics, and aspiring to become a successful athlete. This sounds like quite the challenge. This is the exact sort of challenge that Nicole Weber was willing to take on in the pursuit of a well-rounded collegiate career.
The Fabric Stitched around our Bodies
Everything we wear is made out of fabric, sometimes more than one type of fabric. Often, we will notice the 100 percent cotton tag on our clothing. Sometimes there is a combination of 70 percent cotton and 30 percent polyester. All fabrics have different textures, weights and warmth they bring to our bodies. The following fabrics are the top 12 fabrics used while making clothing. Therefore, many of us have one of these pieces of fabric on our bodies daily.
Herbivores: Fact or Fiction
The Carnivore, an animal that feeds on flesh…check. The Omnivore, who feeds on plants and other animal…check. The Herbivore on the other hand, let’s take a closer look into the supposed plant-eating animals.
From West Point to Saint Leo University
Lennox has had a long and distinguished career before coming to the University as a member of the Board of Trustees in 2008. He attended The United States Military Academy at West Point where he received his bachelor’s degree in international affairs. He received his Master’s and PhD in Literature from Princeton University. His doctoral dissertation is on American war poetry. In addition, he graduated first in his class at Fort Leavenworth’s Command and General Officer’ s School, and he completed the Senior Service College Fellowship at Harvard University.
Cuts for a Cause
Eat. Sleep. Play. Repeat. This is the sequence of events often used to describe the average day in the life of a student athlete. Then, on top of all of this, there is homework, and any other demands or challenges the day might bring along. These athletes all end up on the same intense schedule, and it is one that leads them to success. They all share a common goal, along with the motivation and drive to achieve it. No wonder there always seems to be a special sort of bond between the members of a team. They are linked together with passion. This type of bond is hard to understand from the outside looking in. These members become more than just teammates. They become a family.
A Wild Ride Through Life
After a while action movies and romantic comedies can get tiresome and boring, and movie-goers need something different. “Wild,” directed by Jean-Marc Vallée, is a movie that feels completely different from anything else in theaters, and has a strong female lead. It is very graphic, but the story grips the audience from start to finish.
Sonic Boom: Rise of Horrible Game Design
With Sonic being the main mascot of the famous gaming company SEGA, it is a shock to see a game this bad since the Sonic Teams experiment with “Sonic 0’6” in 2006. Developers Big Red Button have replaced Sonic Team alongside SEGA, creating the new Wii U game “Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.”
