The Bulldogs snapped out of a three-game win­less funk with two dom­i­nat­ing road per­for­mances as they outscored Bowling Green University 7–2 in their two– game series sweep Jan. 7–8.

The sweep marks the first time Ferris has swept Bowling Green on its home ice since the 2002-03 sea­son. The vic­tory on Saturday was head coach Bob Daniels 300th win. (more…)

People love a bar­gain, and noth­ing proves this more than the absolute mad­ness that is dis­played every year on the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Only one day after peo­ple spend time with their fam­i­lies and give thanks to all the things one has been blessed with, peo­ple turn into com­plete sav­ages in order to save a few dol­lars on stuff they prob­a­bly do not even need. Showing their true nature, women will start a fist fight over a cof­fee maker, men will hit women over an HD TV, and preg­nant women will be tram­pled. These are only a few of the many exam­ples of vio­lent acts that occur on Black Friday in the name of a great sale. (more…)

The team and head coach Tracey Dorow know that in order to accom­plish their goal, the team is going to have to work hard each game. (more…)

I have heard a vast mul­ti­tude of hor­ror sto­ries from both friends and strangers about hav­ing issues with their advisors.

Students being one class short of being able to grad­u­ate, not hav­ing enough classes over the 300 level to grad­u­ate, tak­ing classes that they did not even need, and being told a required course trans­ferred when it really didn’t are just a few exam­ples of these prob­lems. (more…)

Brandel-Wilhelm cur­rently has a 302–159 record in her 15 years at Ferris State and is only 29 vic­to­ries away from being the win­ningest vol­ley­ball coach in school his­tory. After her 300th vic­tory she was not even aware at first that she had crossed the mile­stone. (more…)

As each elec­tion rolls around we always hear how impor­tant it is for each per­son to get out and vote, that our vote really matters.

The prob­lem I have with this is that our votes DO mat­ter. The issue is the vast major­ity of Americans, even those that do vote, do not truly take this to heart. (more…)

The women’s soc­cer team had a rough road trip this past week­end as it lost to Findlay and then Tiffin.

In the first match against Findlay, the Bulldogs trailed 1–0 until fresh­man for­ward Emily Kraska tied the game with 10:35 left in the first half. (more…)

The leaves have started to change and the days are start­ing to grow cooler, both sig­nals that the fat months are amongst us.

In the next three months a lot of us will be cel­e­brat­ing Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. During these hol­i­days count­less Americans will gain weight as we are first pre­sented with a ridicu­lous amount of candy, and then pump­kin or pecan pie good­ness, and last all the cook­ies and cakes that go along with a very merry Christmas to round out the fat fiesta.

I feel that I am a pretty even keel indi­vid­ual; it is pretty hard to get me riled up.

With that said, your every­day com­mon rude­ness really gets me mad. The rea­son is that in most sit­u­a­tions where peo­ple are rude are spawned from pure thought­less­ness and a total dis­re­gard for other peo­ple. (more…)

Ferris opened its sea­son with an impres­sive per­for­mance as the Bulldogs coasted to a 4–1 vic­tory over the Chargers. Junior Chad Billins was the star of the night as he scored the team’s first goal of the year and then scored the even­tual game win­ner after the Chargers had tied it at 1 apiece. (more…)
