  1. Here at HC we just celebrated Greek Week and we highlighted the good and the bad. At Rutgers there has been some bad press for the Greek system. One sorority has been under fire for their intense hazing practices. [NJ]
  2. Halle Organ brings this article to our attention. “I am terrible at understanding song lyrics. This MSNBC article gives examples of common misheard lyrics in some of today's most popular songs. The confusions are really funny to read, and it's great to know I'm not the only one who has no idea what the artists are singing about.” [MSNBC]
  3. An etiquette lover provides smokers and non-smokers some advice. Thanks Elyssa Goodman for the recommendation! [The Young Gentleman]
  4. The Internet world is abuzz about the new iPad, but Heather Rinder isn’t much of a fan of Apple’s latest product, especially after reading this article. [Gizmodo]
  5. Are we changing the way words are spelled through texting? [New York Times]
  6. Kathleen Corlett brings this depressing article to our attention. “Online newspapers that charge for a subscription can look forward to... only a couple dozen subscribers? (Warning: may be scary for aspiring journalists.)” [Observer]
  7. “I know a lot of people love that song "Whatcha Say" by Jason Derulo, but I was shocked to find out that my own roommates had never heard "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap, which is what he sampled to make his chorus!,” says Caitlin Hardgrove. “Here are some links to bridge that gap of knowledge for all the other uninformed girls out there.” [Idolator]
  8. Should women be settling in their marriages? Here is one argument of why it’s better to be with someone than alone. Not necessarily anti-feminist though… [The Atlantic]
  9. Who is really donating to Haiti? Kathleen Corlett shows us how the breakdown of donations goes. [Good.Is]
  10. Emily Weisberger shows us this “funny spoof on credit cards being marketed to our age group!” [Campus Progress]
