By Kyle Maher

Let’s get one thing straight: I’m a New York Giants fan. Always have been, always will be. Before coming to Elon, I would watch every game on the same couch in the same room with my father and my recently deceased grandfather.

Pesky Colts are surprising the NFL yet again in 2013

By Max Garland

As usual, the NFL is off to a very confusing start. The Kansas City Chiefs, the worst team by record last year, are undefeated despite the woes of its offensive line, a supposed strength at the start of the season. The Pittsburgh Steelers are looking at a potential clean-house scenario in the offseason, the worst possible scenario for a club that prides itself on stability and constant championship contention. And the Indianapolis Colts, everyone’s favorite candidate for regression in 2013, just blew out the San Francisco 49ers, the defending NFC champions.

The incredible journey: Elon students to embark across India unaided in Adventurists' Rickshaw Run

By Abby Franklin

Most Elon University students are familiar with Bio-Carts, the small vehicles used by members of Elon’s maintenance staff to travel around campus. If you pluck this little electric vehicle out of the “Elon bubble” and place it in Northeast India, people would probably call it an auto rickshaw — a three-wheeled cabin vehicle that serves as an essential form of urban transport in many developing countries. This January during Winter Term, five Elon students will be driving two auto rickshaws nearly 2,000 miles in less than two weeks in an ultimate adventure called the Rickshaw Run in India. Seniors Maria Castine, Will Stirn, Ben Donahue, Jack Halligan and junior Jordan Nulsen will be making this journey.

By Katherine Blunt

Simplemente no me importaba”, dijo Epperson. “Cuando tienes a alguien que te ayuda, te mantiene alerta y te recuerda constantemente: ‘Tienes que hacer esto. Tienes que dejar de hacer aquello’”.

Local healthcare clinic provides lifeline to uninsured Alamance County residents

Alamance County resident Valerie Epperson said she doesn’t think she would be alive right now if it were not for the Open Door Clinic of Alamance County, a clinic that provides free healthcare to people who do not have insurance. “When I first started, my diabetes were out of control, and I was just eating anything I wanted. It’s like, I just didn’t care,” Epperson said. “When you have someone there to help you, it keeps your mind open all the time about, ‘Hey, you need to do this. You need to stop doing this.’”
