By Sara Bitterman
January 25, 2013 12:00 AM
The Provo-Orem metro area is ranked seventh best performing large city by the Milken Institute, based off of its economic strength, but this new ranking may not be enough to keep BYU graduates in the area.

Opinion: Let's get real with resolutions

By Carlie Ellett
December 03, 2012 12:00 AM
I am a 24 Hour die-hard. I love everything about 24 Hour Fitness. I look forward to working out every morning. On Dec. 31, as soon as I get to the gym, I check in with Brittney. We talk about school and how we can't wait to finally graduate. I then hop on the treadmill right next to Shirley, who will no doubt give me a pep talk and share something with me she found interesting in the Ensign. When I move to the elliptical, Brian and I will talk about the San Francisco 49ers and anything else that tickles our sports fancy. As I leave, an elderly gentleman named Larry, whom I call 'Grandpa,' will fist bump me and tell me to 'keep it up' in his deep, raspy voice. I feel good and refreshed. I got to exercise and interact with my 'gym friends,' the same people I have seen there for years.

Going on a date, buying groceries or picking up a relative from the airport can seem ordinary and simple. But without a car, these activities become more complicated.

Too cool for school

By Stephanie Lacy
September 12, 2012 12:00 AM
Consider how often you’ve heard the following statements: “You don’t need to read the book, just go to class.' 'It’s OK, I went to class once a week and still got an A.' 'I started my paper the day before it was due and just pulled an all-nighter to finish it.”

The campus is not your world

By Megan Adams
September 12, 2012 12:00 AM
When I was 18 and realized I'd be attending BYU, my native Los Angeleno self was not too pleased. I knew I'd receive a great education, but living in tiny Provo, with the nearest big city an hour away, did not have a great appeal. Add in the fact that winters here involve temperatures below 60 degrees, and I knew my life was about to be overhauled.

The cost of a volunteer military

By Robin Rodgers
September 10, 2012 12:00 AM
During my first semester at BYU I was walking home from church in the Harmon Building. I was accompanied by my roommate, who commented on the fact that the University hadn't done much to commemorate September 11th that weekend. She said she liked it and was pleased to not attend another ceremony of mourning.
