*The North Carolina State student government overspent their budget, the Technician reports. And looking at their damage control strategy ("The problem is during the last administration" and "There was only so much I could do"), these kids have a flourishing future in grown-up government.

*A sports columnist from the Lantern is worried that Ohio State's returning school president "could spell trouble for Buckeye athletics." Part of the problem? He is "well-known for his stance on increased academic standards by student-athletes." Trouble indeed.

*The Indiana Daily Student diligently reports that psych researchers have trouble finding test subjects in the student-sparse summer and that the shortage is neither unexpected or detrimental. So...what exactly is the news here? --Alison Go
