...world in 1887 by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes has been much celebrated for his cleverness. He's a cerebral detecting machine, able to slip in and out of disguises and make it all look "elementary." But have his steely abs ever been given their proper due? Have we remarked enough on what a cutie pie he is, especially when bantering with Dr. Watson...

Thus, we applaud the council’s use of this constitutional provision despite a lack of precedent. It provided the proper forum to show disapproval for McLeod’s actions, which included authorizing an inappropriate email that was sent from the ucpres@fas account. The message’s premature and unproven accusations were distributed in negligence of UC and EC procedure, generating confusion and uproar that harmed the reputation...
