Student orientation at Portland State is right around the corner, and parents who want to make sure their kids get properly situated to college life are going to need a place to stay. Not to worry: The Vanguard is here to help.

Born and raised in Nampa, Idaho, Soto grew up in a rough neighborhood. He got involved with gangs at an early age and eventually wound up in the juvenile justice system.

Shoot ‘Em Up is the kind of mindless action film (heavy on the mindless) that practically begs you to enjoy it.

An unassuming building plastered with homemade movie posters covers the ground floor of Ondine on Hall Street.

Portland is a city full of opportunities to see and be involved in theater, both large and small productions.

“I been standing on one leg for three goddamn years waitin’ for God to do me a favor,” says Dan Evans (Christian Bale) in the neo-western film 3:10 to Yuma. “He’s not listening.”

You’ve probably heard the stories. Stories of animal costumes, giant inflatable balls and nun puppets.

Northwest hip-hop is on the rise, and Seattle’s Grayskul is evidence. Bloody Radio, the group’s sophomore album on the Rhymesayers Entertainment record label, shows a great array of solid production and rapping.

It is time for the newest wave of charges to stop. Students, instead of seeing massive hikes in tuition, are being charged fees at rampant rates–from a $202 incidental fee that pays for student groups, to an $87 technology fee that pays for our computers.

We at the Vanguard feel bad about the Viking football team’s loss in their season opener against McNeese State.

I am very disappointed that Portland State requires students who take over nine credits to pay a mandatory insurance fee.
