Standing for compassion, nonviolence and a world without borders, the venerable Dalai Lama has been a spiritual leader to millions for the past 50 years.

Surprise, disgust and sheer terror were just a few of the emotions experienced by students who logged-on this week to get their Facebook fix. While many students have complained that the new design is confusing and worse than the old version, what is far more alarming is the increased accessibility to personal information.
A virtual tour of the university is currently being created by the UB Center for Computational Research, however the simulation is not part of the campus-wide project UB 2020.

In response to front-runner Eliot Spitzer's no-show at Monday's gubernatorial debate, governor rivals brought mudslinging to the foreground in an off-the-wall display of political stupidity. Thomas R. Suozzi, democrat, and John Faso, republican, joined forces during the televised debate to take jabs at Spitzer rather than expressing their own feelings about the issues that matter.
