What should have been a quiet morning at the Admissions office over fall break turned into a phone frenzy. Greg Zaiser, the Vice President of Admissions heard from many people who were upset by the national headlines about Chick-fil-A on Elon's campus last week. "It was not received well," Zaiser said.
The legislation to ban Chik-fil-a has sparked conversations all around Elon's campus, and the author of the legislation, senior Lauren Clapp, said she had no idea it would get so much attention. "It has become a horrible symbol that I hope does not stay much longer," Clapp said. But Clapp isn't the only one hearing negative feedback from students.

In a 21-20 vote, the Student Government Association at Elon University upheld the veto of the legislation against Chick-fil-A’s presence in the future Lakeside Dining Hall.
On a night filled with heart-stopping, back and forth action, it’s only fitting that the leading goal-scorer in the nation, Elon University forward Chris Thomas, would send most of the 689 fans watching the game home with something to cheer about. After last Saturday’s 1-0 win over Appalachian State University, the Phoenix was able to capitalize on a Wake Forest University foul inside their own box in the 16th minute, which resulted in a Thomas penalty kick and the game’s lone goal to push Elon to a 1-0 victory over the No.

It is rare that social media has the potential to restore the little faith I have left in the world. Endless animosity toward every decision regarding Chick-fil-A has left me cranky and flustered.

Pink ribbons, pink shirts and pink hair. October is breast cancer awareness month, and Elon community members are taking the opportunity to give back. One local business that continues to do just that is iSalon.
