Subway Sandwiches

Have you heard? “Subway is for winners” now. I’m not sure how comfortable I feel with that being said. I really can’t overstate the love-hate relationship I have with Subway.

Surfer’s Paradise

Welcome back to the pool, kids. I hope you brought your water wings. Here comes another new school year, and another surf column in your crisply folded edition of the Daily Nexus. Oddly enough, as you read this, I’ll be more than 6,000 miles away from the nearest copy of today’s Nexus.

Despite expanding class sizes and drastic budget cuts, UCSB students will still be responsible for averaging a 15-unit course load per the Minimum Cumulative Progress policy implemented last fall.

Budget Cuts Force Students to Forage for Classes

Student Finds New Experiences in Ancient City

Before taking the tiring, disorienting 12-hour flight across the Pacific Ocean to Rome, Italy, remember these two important pieces of information.

MLB End-of-Season Honors
