Few things warm my heart like Cornell references in popular media. I think it’s cute when people quote Andy from The Office, even as stupid as he sounds.

TV cannot manage to get college right. Flashback to my youth (the start of TV shows failing to capture college and the college process correctly) and a fascinating episode of Saved By The Bell where Zack Morris (swoon) does surprisingly well on his SATs, receiving an astonishing 1502.

Sometimes celebrities can be used as road maps as what not to do. Let them make the mistakes that are splashed all over magazine covers for the public to revel in them and then say to yourself  ‘that’s something I’d never do.’

I have compiled a list of 10 mistakes celebrities have made that you can learn lessons from.

Bob Saget descended on Ithaca yesterday for originally, inexplicable reasons. He had already been to the school once in my four years here — telling a slew of dirty jokes that Danny Tanner would have cringed at (unless they’d been about actual dirt…).

Choosing a partner is hard — you want someone you love and respect, but its also nice if the people around you at the very least respect the person (or tolerate them), and certainly don’t criticize him or her nonstop.

 Shania Twain is making her comeback — not with a “That Don’t Impress Me Much” style single, but with a new reality show on new Oprah’s network set to launch on January 1, 2011.

Pre-med students bust their asses to beat the means, own the MCATS, and get into the dream medical school. I have seen first hand how difficult the path to being a doctor is. I can only assume how horrifying med school is.

In the coming days, Switzerland will decide if they will give up Academy Award winner, Roman Polanski. Polanski, 76, fled California after allegedly having sexual relations with a 13 year-old girl in 1978. Since then, the director has continued to make movies, win countless awards, and even receive lifetime achievement awards.

Two weeks ago In Touch Magazine shocked readers when they released their exclusive interview with Michelle “Bombshell” McGee — a heavily tattooed woman who claimed to be having an illicit affair with Jesse James.
