Shivering, Sunburnt, Satisfied
Last weekend brought the third Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival to Indio, Calif.
The Examined
Observe the calm of the graduating seniors. Though they have screwed off all quarter and rebelled against their masters only to be caught and put to midterms, they calmly await their fate and prepare to shuffle off this academic coil.

UCSB gave up an unholy 23 hits in an 18-13 loss to UCLA in Caesar Uyesaka Stadium on Tuesday afternoon. Eight different pitchers gave up 15 earned runs and the defense committed three costly errors, condemning the Gauchos to fall to a record of 17-26 overall.

Isla Vista has never killed anyone with a car or made anyone take drugs. The lawyers for David Attias – a former UCSB student who hit five people with a car, killing four of them – claim I.V. is responsible for their client’s actions.
Parking Fees Could Rise
