Mötley Crüe kicks off their 12-day rock n’ roll residency at The Joint Among Las Vegas residencies, which often feature the likes of Celine Dion, Elton John, Carlos Santana and [insert cliche-celeb-DJ here], comes none other than one of the 1980s most rocking and raucous spawns: Mötley Crüe. Over the past few weeks, you’ve probably [...]

Siblings find success with pop culture parodies Creative visionaries Hannah and Hilly Hindi are born and raised Las Vegans — but they didn’t find superstardom at the Strip. Instead, the sisters turned even closer for fame — to their computers. Watch one of their parodies and you’ll be surprised to hear that the The Hindis [...]

You don’t know this, but that kid in your class that gets perfect grades? He’s more gifted than you. Gifted with motivation and potential. Promising enough that the university invests in him. Valuable enough to the institution that it sets him apart. The perks of honors programs are formidable: face time with influential faculty, small [...]

Ranking not as meaningful as advertised

Doc Bradley — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:29:21 +0000

UNLV’s No. 12 rating doesn’t make it the next Harvard I love UNLV, I really do. I think UNLV is an oasis of culture and intelligence in a desert of discontent. The UNLV campus is the most beautiful, liberating, intellectual and tolerant place in all of Southern Nevada. Because of my deep affection for UNLV, [...]
