Jeff Loves: no really, it’s true!
By Jeff Shedden / jshedden@valenciavoice.com
February 13, 2012
People ask me all the time, “Jeff, you’re so full of hate, is there anything you actually love?” The answer is, a firm, resounding “NO!” I kid, I kid. Of course there are things I love. Most readers of the Voice have never seen me in person (I’m always available to sign autographs!), but... Read more »
Yes to Obama re-election
By Shay Castle / scastle@valenciavoice.com
January 26, 2012
Obama is focusing his re-election campaign on the strength of his foreign policy, as he should. The majority of American voters are woefully ignorant of foreign affairs, but most understand the need for a strong leader, and recognize the President’s competency in that arena. It is true that Obama’s... Read more »
No to Obama re-election
By Brittany Gil / bgil@valenciavoice.com
January 26, 2012
President Barack Obama’s leadership style approval rating dropped to an all-time low for the third straight month in August 2010, he hasn’t recovered yet. Although Obama made more than an effort to keep his promises, it seems more American citizens have become disillusioned with his presidential... Read more »
Award shows rock
by Jeremy Williams / jwilliams@valenciavoice.com
January 23, 2012
It’s that time of year again folks, and I couldn’t be more excited! No not the Super Bowl or any other sporting event. Not the exhausting road to the White House either. I believe we have all had our fill of Republican debates and smear campaigns. No, my friends, with the start if the new... Read more »
Award shows suck
by Jeff Shedden / jshedden@valenciavoice.com
January 23, 2012
Award shows are a great way to honor the best of the film and music industries, or at least they used to be. They’ve finally crossed the line and are trying to be a form of entertainment themselves.No! That’s just a polite way of saying that pretty much every award show is a total sham, and that...

‘Devil Inside’ a test of faith
By Jeff Shedden / jshedden@valenciavoice.com
January 19, 2012
I’ve always been a sucker for horror films, and this can even include some real stinkers. My personal horror collection is around 130 titles, and includes gems like “Candyman” and “Re-animator” and junk like “The Gate” and “Xtro.” I have the entire run of the “Nightmare on Elm Street”...

Jeff hates: GOP candidates
By Jeff Shedden / jshedden@valenciavoice.com
December 13, 2011
Let’s face it, this election season’s Republican primary is the biggest freak show the GOP has ever handed us. There isn’t a single candidate in the entire bunch that would make a good president of a chess club, much less the United States. The Republican party has spent so much time trying to... Read more »
Spread love for Holidays
By Jennifer DiDomenico / jdidomenico@valenciavoice.com
December 6, 2011
I love holidays. I love getting flowers on Valentine’s Day, wearing green on St. Patrick’s Day, coloring eggs on Easter, watching fireworks on the fourth of July, eating ridiculous amounts of candy on Halloween, and eating even more ridiculous amounts of turkey on Thanksgiving. And I can’t help... Read more »
Ban protects students’ health
By Neda Hamdan / Nhamdan@valenciavoice.com
December 6, 2011
As I walk through the breezeway, I’m caught off guard by the pungent smell of tobacco invading my nostrils and I can’t help but cough. Why should students be subjected to something that could potentially endanger our health? Someone dies from a tobacco-related illness every eight seconds in the United... Read more »
Right to legal substance should take precedence
By Fred Lambert / flambert@valenciavoice.com
December 6, 2011
The decision of the Board of Trustees to outlaw smoking on campus this past summer has gone under the radar for many students. The policy restricts all burned tobacco and according to Valencia’s online statement, “any object or device intended to simulate such use,” which includes, oddly enough,... Read more »
