Five members of the Clarkson chapter of the mechanical engineering honor society attended the annual society convention in Chicago. With delegates from about 75 chapters attending from around the nation, the convention is a great opportunity for Clarkson's members to network with fellow members and professionals in the mechanical engineering field nationwide.

Clarkson University is again participating in a national recycling competition - Recyclemania. Our goal is to reduce the mass of materials collected for recycling and reducing our wastes that are headed for the landfill. Ro-Bro Chef Tom Cruger is again taking the lead on coordinating Clarkson's involvement in this competition.


02/20/11--21:00: Easy win (chan 2515045)

Juana Baribeau and the Clarkson University Women's Hockey team set the tone early Saturday afternoon. The junior forward scored what would prove to be the game-winning goal just 21 seconds into the first period as the Golden Knights dispatched Union College 4-0 in the regular-season finale.


02/20/11--21:00: Skidmore loss (chan 2515045)

Down to just seven players due to several season-ending injuries, the Clarkson University Women's Basketball team held its own against Skidmore College, but a long second-half scoring draught sent the Golden Knights to a 55-41 loss against the Thoroughbreds Saturday afternoon.

A 16-0 run broke open a tight game in the first half and that four-minute stretch proved to be the difference as the Clarkson University Men's Basketball team dropped a 83-63 decision to Skidmore College Saturday afternoon.
The Golden Knights concluded their season with a 12-13 overall record and a 4-10 mark in the Liberty League, while Skidmore edge up to 16-9 and 10-4.

The Clarkson University Hockey team's bid to move up in the ECAC Hockey standings and secure a home-ice berth for the upcoming league playoffs took a hit over the weekend as the Golden Knightssuffered a weekend sweep against a pair of nationally-ranked rivals at Cheel Arena after 14th-ranked Rensselaer broke open a tight game to skate away with a 5-1 victory on Saturday night.


02/20/11--21:00: Television: A week in review (chan 2515045)

As Charlie Sheen's bareback rodeo rolls on, the consensus seems to be that if Charlie goes down, so does the show, that "Two and a Half Men" simply cannot survive without him.
Balderdash! (Or was that Fred Flintstone's boss?) If TV has taught us anything, it's that everyone is expendable.


02/20/11--21:00: The King's Speech a must see drama (chan 2515045)

The movie tells the story of Albert Frederick Arthur George, the Duke of York and later King George VI, (Colin Firth) and his rise to power as King of England. Albert or Bertie as his family knew him had a speech problem, a stammer, and was unable to speak in public.


02/20/11--21:00: The problems with our generation (chan 2515045)

While there are many things I do like about our generation, there is something really starting to grate away at my very core. A wise person once told me that "you know you're insane when you feel like the last sane person on earth". If this is the case than call the men in white coats and get me a reservation in one of those nice padded rooms.


02/20/11--21:00: Meal Plan (chan 2515045)

Many students know that meal plan on campus is a requirement if you live in the dorms, but how many people have actually taken into account cost of it? I would like to take a quick look at each meal plan and show students exactly how much they are spending per meal.

Chinese officials on Sunday cracked down against protests, or rumors of them, sending police to detain dissidents and breakup public gatherings in the capital and Shanghai.
After Internet messages calling for demonstrations in 13 cities surfaced on Saturday, apparently from Chinese-language sites based overseas, there were reports of activists being preemptively arrested.


02/20/11--21:00: Underdogs rule at Daytona 500 (chan 2515045)

NASCAR tweaked its rules all week in an effort to slow down speeds and discourage tandem bump-drafting, even making changes less than 24 hours before Sunday's Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway.
The "lovebug" style of racing was still prevalent on Sunday, though, and it made for an up-and-down, ugly, caution-ridden race.


02/20/11--21:00: This is IBM Jeopardy! (chan 2515045)

On Tuesday, February 15, 2011 IBM came to Clarkson's Student Center to show off their new toy: the IBM computer known as Watson (named after a founder of IBM), who was created to compete against well-known Jeopardy contestants. About two hundred people, including students, professors, and community members packed into the Student Center to watch the Jeopardy episode on the big screen, to watch the Jeopardy game that the IBM company members set up for a select number of students, and to enjoy the treats that IBM brought with them.
