Dr. Upright, as a freshman from out of state, I feel alone at this university. I miss my family, and I’m having a hard time adjusting to college. I feel like dropping out, but I know that’s not the logical or right solution. What advice could you give me?
Sad Little Freshman, I can tell you, as a convicted “felon,” that I know the feeling of [...]

Review
When “The Hangover” made over $450 million at the box office in the summer of 2009, a resurgence of R-rated comedies occurred in Hollywood. Many of these comedies were released this past summer, including a sequel to the uber-popular “Hangover,” but none were as hilarious as “Horrible Bosses.”

The Tigers will return Tracie Hileman, their lone s [...]
Chiefs look for success
At about this time last year, I was standing in a rainy Arrowhead Stadium, the thunder easily drowned out by the relentless crowd noise as the heavily favored San Diego Chargers attempted to tie their opening game against the Kansas City Chiefs late in the fourth quarter. They failed. It was one of the happiest sports moments in recent memory [...]
Sporting pushes for playoffs
Sporting Kansas City may be the best-kept secret in Kansas City sports. Despite no small amount of success, including an MLS Cup win in 2000, Sporting’s fan base has yet to climb to the heights it deserves outside of the Kansas City metropolitan area.
