FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

FOR THE RECORD: Spend a little; get a lot.

I can't believe that within a matter of hours, all the money I had earned over winter break is pretty much gone. That's right, gone—on books. Ugh.

Since I have little money left in my bank account, it may seem that my social life would be put on hold. Luckily, one of the best times of the year is back: Center City Restaurant Week.

That's right. It's back and you can actually go out to a great restaurant for a relatively cheap price. Make sure to check out the official Center City Restaurant Week website for more information.

Also, if you're in the mood for saving some of your hard-earned money, make sure to get your hands on a Campus Philly discount tag. We have new discounts at various locations around the city. So spend a little and get a lot of satisfaction about your savings.

- Brittany Sturges, Temple '08
