What the shuck is happening?

Code Red, a subcommittee of Sustain UNL, partnered with OrganiCup to bring free menstrual cups to campus during CampusCup 2020. The menstrual cups provided by OrganiCup are reusable and can last up to 10 years. Code Red began this partnership to encourage UNL students to reduce their individual environmental footprint, and said that a reusable menstrual cup is an effective way to do that.

Following the university's tweet about a fox spotted on campus, assistant director of Landscape Operations Jeff Culbertson said foxes aren't unusual sightings on UNL campuses. Additionally, they pose no threat to UNL students and add excitement to campus. "If anything, it just makes campus a little more interesting," Culbertson said.

Lincoln native Taveon Thompson was offered a preferred walk-on by the Huskers. Currently, Thompson plays three sports and has grown into a leadership position on his high school football team. Thompson said he hopes to choose a team that provides him a supportive community.

After a lifetime of ghost hunting, Nick Downs knows to run when you catch the scent of sulfur at Ball Cemetery — especially when you find three parallel scratches going down each arm. On this episode of the Star City Culture Committee, Downs and Saryn Chloupek from Paranormal L.I.G.H.T.S. — which stands for Lincoln Investigations of Ghost Haunting and The Supernatural — sit down with co-hosts Mark Champion and Jenna Thompson to talk ax murders, screams inside the Temple Building, evading demonic possession, what it’s like to die and much more.
