Buffalo Bills fans are a strange, persevering bunch. We took a look inside what makes some of RIT's biggest Bills fans support the team no matter what.

A Look Back at This Year in Technology.

I currently hold five different jobs on campus, including my Editor in Chief job here at Reporter. In addition, I hold an off campus job and attend school full time. 

At the time of writing this, I have five more days until I am paid again for my work on campus. I also have $10 in my bank account to last me until then. 

What I make here at RIT is what I have to live on. If I run out of food, I don't eat. If my computer breaks, I make do with campus technology. If my car stops working, I have to find a ride to school and hope that my schedule lines up with someone else. 

On Oct. 10, our news section published an article regarding workers' rights here on campus...

RIT's first ever OneSpiRIT Global Hockey Festival, which brought together RIT's campuses around the globe for a unifying celebration, was a huge success. Destler and company seem ready and eager to do it again next year, but even bigger.

RIT's Quidditch team, the Dark Marks, has been making a name for itself in the world of college Quidditch. Prateek Ranka investigates the club's beginnings, successes and future endeavors.

Thanks to the combined efforts of RIT students and professors, RIT is putting its best foot forward in the technology field.

In April 2012, Reporter published an article profiling The Meatgrinder, a basement venue pivotal to the Rochester punk scene...

When students and workers alike still struggle to keep up financially, a paradigm shift must be made in our economics. We need to be able to earn a living wage.

WITR has recently added to its studio by building a new complex on the first floor of the SAU. In order to do so, some students had to go the extra mile to expand the already successful radio station.

50 years after the Rochester race riots, a new art exhibit causes spectators to contemplate what effects race and gender still have on individual experiences today.

The Oculus Rift, a virtual reality system that allows for fully immersed video game interaction, is the video game of the future.

Policies and procedures should be in place for the benefit of students, but a lack of realistic expectations and consistent enforcement does more harm than good.

How much students can work, where they can work and who they can work for are all affected by policies made both on the campus and federal level.

A look at the often forgotten demographic of students living below the poverty line.

October's At Your Leisure crosswords puzzle solutions.

It’s difficult to think about RIT without associating it with innovation. Innovation is the school's go-to buzzword, and RIT’s not afraid to slap that label on anything that slightly resembles innovation.

To the employees of RIT, the word varies in meaning. Dr. Richard DeMartino, the director of the Simone Center, defines innovation as “both the creation of something new and the use of it.”

To Christine Corrado, the organizer for the Innovation Hall of Fame, innovation means “the coalescence between the perceived need and the unperceived need, and a novel approach to meeting that need...

The 2015 NASA budget is expected to be $17.46 billion. To put that in perspective, the U.S. Department of Education requested $22.8 billion for Pell Grants, which provide education to lower-income families...

A line composed of young men dressed in flashy clothing and women in tight-fitting garb moved at a snail's pace off of East Avenue. The sound of mainstream hip-hop reverberated through the stone walls. Ahead, a broad-shouldered man in a black t-shirt marked “Security” stood with arms crossed and a stern expression. Patrons slowly tumbled through the door, passing through an airport-style metal detector. When the alarm beeped, a young woman in a black mini-skirt stepped back and removed her keys from her pockets, handing them off to the security guard...

One of the most common idioms in the English language is “Don't judge a book by its cover.” The same idea doesn’t apply to the library, though, because RIT’s Wallace Center went through some renovations to its main entrance and first floor to provide a more welcoming space and to foster an open learning environment.

The renovations, designed in part by HBT Architects, started in spring of 2013 and ended in fall of the same year.

Some of the main concerns taken into account for the renovations were student input and student workspaces. In fact, one of the highly influential designers of the renovation is a 2010 RIT graduate...

In the past decade, technology has made massive steps forward in the areas of mobile technology and social integration...

During the Student Government (SG) presidency of Greg Pollock (2011-2012), the TE3 was introduced. The TE3 is a bus service that allows RIT students to venture into the city of Rochester over the weekend for free; it still continues and has become a popular service and a part of the campus’ culture. The service also allows students to find new and adventurous things to do outside of the RIT main campus in Henrietta. The TE3 was originally supposed to be in a testing phase in order to move to a paid model in the future. While plans for that change are still in the works, finding the right way for students to adapt has been a challenge...

Better than any open world video game, lucid dreaming allows the dreamer to do things like travel the world, fly like superman and even relive memories, without ever leaving his or her bed.

Lucid Dreaming is a learnable skill that can allow you to turn your dreams into anything you can imagine. This scientifically proven phenomenon has many applications, including some that can affect your waking life. Through practice, anyone can unlock the ability to achieve lucidity and find the potential of waking dreams...

Next to Indian food and morning sex, psilocybin is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me.

My first exposure with psilocybin was either the second or third day of my freshman year at Wagner College...

Pounding headaches, aching muscles, a stomach on the verge of calling it quits: hangovers are the absolute worst. A night of drinking puts an incredible strain on the liver to clear out all of the poison and chemicals left behind...

Hello party animals, it’s your boy Leo here with some tips for becoming the ultimate party monster. Now, as all of you know, I am the king of parties; few have reached my level of party power, as I like to call it. From gaming parties to techno-powered midnight raves, I’m your man. I boast such feats as downing a bottle of brew in only two hours and, I kid you not, I once almost kissed a girl. I’m quite the party animal and I’m here to share some of my tips.

Dress for success

In order to be the party master, you must look the part. You have to look sharp and cool...

The zombie outbreak has finally made its way to RIT. With one touch, an unsuspecting human can be turned into a cunning, flesh-eating zombie. The zombies may only have three days to feed before dying off but with a campus full of students, a continuously growing freshman class and the intelligence to run the admissions office, they have the resources to survive for years. Soon, zombies will outnumber us all and they’ll be waiting for us at every corner...

All-nighters are all too familiar to college students, but what are we really sacrificing when we throw aside sleep to scrape by at school? Sleep is our most natural and essential escape from stress, yet we voluntarily trade it away for more time to pursue other activities, lessening both the amount and quality of the sleep we get.

Lack of sleep dulls everything about us. Losing even 90 minutes of sleep for a single night can drop daytime alertness by over 30 percent. A study of 200 participants found that “sleep habits, particularly wake-up times, accounted for the largest variance in grade point averages...

Many freshmen will spend their early weeks at RIT cooped up in their dorms, utilizing just the space immediate to their room to study, nap, eat, etc. They get in a rut, and as a result, possibly minimize their social interactions...

One of the hardest challenges for college students to overcome is keeping a clean room. Having a clean room to study, relax and sleep in can make a big difference in your satisfaction with your first year...
