Every year in elementary school, the teachers passed out small blue books to every student. On the cover was an imprint of the school logo and the inside pages were covered in blocks, boxes and lines. Each day was neatly marked with a name and a space for the date.

For some, getting to class may include a simple five-minute walk across campus or a two-minute drive down Pennington Road. But for hundreds of others, making it to class includes a slightly longer commute - with a stop at the gas pump along the way.
Each day, commuters make their way to the College from across the state, choosing to live at home as a cheaper alternative to both on and off-campus housing.

Described by many as a "stripped down male version of Alanis Morissette," New York singer/songwriter Jay Brannan has slowly been making a name for himself with legions of loyal fans as the next big thing on the indie music scene. With only word of mouth, some homemade YouTube videos, and a few concerts as his publicity, his self- released debut album premiered at number twenty-five on the overall iTunes charts, as well as number two on the folk charts.

Dear Devil's Advocate,
I am a freshman here at St. John's. However, I am also not from around here (about 5 hour drive away), so I do not know many people at all. Basically I am only acquainted with my roommates. It has only been a few days into the school year and I just feel terribly lonely.

It seems the talk of the University this semester so far is the New Founder's townhouses and how unique they are compared to other residence buildings on campus. One way they vary from other residence halls is the lack of Public Safety at the entranceway.
The Public Safety worker or guard at the front desk of residence hall dorms enforces visitation polices, and other Public Safety officers are visible all night, patrolling each hallway and lounge.
