Duluth was ranked among the best cities in the United States for college kids to stay in after graduation.

UMD's annual Homecoming Parade has usually been held on Superior Street in downtown Duluth.  This year, they are moving it on campus and will allow fans the luxury of just walking over to the UMD Homecoming football game, rather than having to drive and re-park.

My daughter Kylee just graduated from UMD.  I remember "move in" day and the chaos that transpired at our area apartments, houses and especially on campus at the dorms.  With that said there are a lot of families driving in the Northland unfamiliar with the city and natives need to be forgiving.

My daughter Kylee is graduating from UMD in just a few days, YAY!  Soon, our college students will either be graduating or heading home for the summer.  That means that foot traffic around the colleges will be significantly reduced and it's a great time to get the Campus Connector Trail completed.  Here's what you need to know.

If you've driven near UMD campuses at all this week, you may have seen college kids partying along the road as they do every year.  It's a tradition and kids will be kids.  However, with the growing problem nationwide of campus rapes is this something we should be joking about?

First things first, congratulations to our high school and college graduates.  Another mile stone reached to enhance your continued journey!  This past Saturday was a busy one for the canal park area and the DECC/Amsoil Arena.  UMD held it's commencement ceremonies for 2, 353 students.  The U-of Wisconsin Superior also had 356 students graduate on Saturday.  With our local colleges on summer break

The St. Cloud City Council passed a measure this week to ban couches and other upholstered furniture from decks and porches. Should other cities like Duluth and Superior do the same?

School's back in session, which, for some is a reason to brag.

Students torn between hitting the books and hitting the bottle can have the best of both worlds at one college.

With high school graduations taking place across the country, I thought it would be fitting to share this video from a commencement speech last year.  The speaker, David Muccullough, Jr had a shocking message for the graduates:  "You Are Not Special."

After weeks, sometimes months, of waiting for the news, it can lead to quite the emotional release.

Kids these days are taking the saying “the dog ate my homework” and completely chucking it out the window. Today’s student needs a more up-to-date and convincing reason for missing an assignment, skipping class or failing to complete work. That’s why this story of a college student who faked his own kidnapping is so fascinating.
