	Style Mistakes to Abandon this Summer By Jasmin Carina May 13, 2013 - 5:10pm With new, cute and fun summer trends here for the season, I thought it would be appropriate to discuss the trends that have been living on for what seems to be years now and in all honesty, should never have been trends in the first place (yes, I am looking at you pajama jeans).

	2013 Pecan Street Spring Festival By Kenyatta Giddings April 30, 2013 - 3:56pm Here's a little Austin history: Sixth Street was orginally named Pecan Street in honor of the Texas tree.

People were in rain ponchos and were having pies smashed in their faces…voluntarily! However, these people endured having pies to the face for a good cause. Alpha Epsilon Delta Pre-Health Honors Society hosted a Pie-A-President fundraiser where presidents of various organizations volunteered to be pied to gather proceeds for the Dell Children’s Surgical Global Outreach Program. This program is aimed to bring surgical care to underserved children in other countries. Kelsey Stewart, a UT junior, was a huge part in planning and putting together the event. READ MORE
