How far would you go to take down a coworker you detest? Would you risk corrupting your morals and values? If yes, you're in the same boat as a Michigan engineering company employee.

The 47 year old woman, whose name was not released, prepared laxative-laced brownies to give to a departing coworker. When another coworker of hers informed management about the action, Saline police got involved.

Jerrod Hart, the chief police, said that on May 3rd, officers confiscated the brownies that no one (thankfully) had a chance to eat. At first, the woman denied that she put laxatives in the brownies but quickly retracted her statement after learning that investigators would test them.

Officers were informed by employees that there was tension between the woman and the departing coworker but specifics weren't divulged. According to Hart, the woman doesn't face any charges since no one ate the brownies.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
