Most of the nation has heard the horrible Darrent Willimasesque story coming out of Storrs the past few days. Cornerback Jasper (Jazz) Howard was shanked (by a husky brand blade I assume) on Sunday morning at a party, school sponsored none the less. Although it is tragic (as every single media outlet would so clichely described it), it is a reminder for us students that life isn't so safe cushiony as you are told as a child in The Very Hungry Caterpillar. It's a tough world, full of Steve McNair girlfriends, and un-safetied handguns in sweatpants, but it is good to know that people will remember you, even if tragedy strikes.
