Maybe you clicked on this article because you adore VICE already, and you just want to compare this list to your own opinions. Maybe you first heard of VICE in August, during the Charlottesville white supremacist riots.

They are that "little" network--they are actually a $2.5 billion company, that was the only team to be reporting on the white supremacist "demonstrations" planned for that weekend. VICE was the team on the scene that shot the footage that was seen across television sets and computers, playing on other news networks for weeks after the riots and murder of Heather Heyer in Charlottesville. If you have not seen this footage yet, you need to. It is incredibly important for everyone to be aware and knowledgeable about the rise of the Alt-Right--better known as Nazis, both in our own country and globally.

VICELAND has bloomed into its own channel, out of the original program "Vice News Tonight" which premieres on HBO weekly. This is your guide to VICE.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
