Myth: He is intimidated by your vibrator Many women may assume that their boyfriend will be offended if they introduce the use of toys into the bedroom. However, most men probably don’t see your “toyfriend” as a threat, and wouldn’t mind you busting it out for a little foreplay. (If you have any concerns, bring [...]
Currently the Student Assembly is working towards creating a safer CNU community for our students. We are still in the developmental stages of creating a Safe-Ride program for our campus – we expect to have the program up and running before the end of the semester and will provide a tentative start date as soon [...]
Dear CNU, I would like to compliment the classy dining halls that are currently run so efficiently. I know that CNU is all about getting to know each other’s classmates, and I like how this can be seen in the dining halls.

When I was in fourth or fifth grade, I heard a heartbreaking story about a mother, a father, and their son. From what I remember, the family was on the way to buy the new Harry Potter book, and their son was ecstatic. I can’t remember the details, such as where or what time of [...]
You know who’s awesome? If you answered David Bowie, Tim Curry, Nathan Fillion, or Alyson Hannigan, technically, yes. If you answered Chuck Norris, 2009 wants their Internet jokes back.
