In a stunning press conference taking place on Oct. 5 by The University of Tulsa, President Brad Carson announced major changes to the day-to-day operations of TU in a daring bid to decrease energy use and become a net-zero campus. With the program starting in Spring 2025, The University of Tulsa will begin removing overhead […]
The other day I walked past some freshmen pointing at The Weekly Yak and laughing together. They didn’t even know that it was me walking past them. Anonymity is such a gift. Living in the shadows is a blessing. But blessings cease at the cusp of midterms, which is where this institution finds itself at […]
Aries (March 21-April 19): Sorry Aries, no horoscope this week, here’s a recipe for chicken noodle soup instead. So first you need chicken, noodles and soup. Combine in a large pot over medium heat, once boiling, simmer for 10-15 minutes, season to taste, eat or whatever. Taurus (April 20-May 20): Anyone named Alex is LAME! […]
Men’s football team loses a tight game to a fleet of delivery robots in disguise Through a burgeoning romance with Richard, a campus Subway employee, the Starship customer service AI has gained sentience and, after much deliberation, the two decided that the next natural step was to teach a fleet of delivery robots to play […]
It’s been a full week since Rush Week, and it’s clear that the only thing people have been rushing to do is switch from their Indeed tab to their Wattpad tab. I’ll give out a free piece of advice, which is to not hand out fanfiction instead of your short resume at the career fair […]

Aries– Aries, the idea that the answers will just come to you during the test is a lie and you know it. You could try actually studying for once, it really will not kill you. Or you could do what we all know you’re going to and watch another episode. C’s get degrees, I guess. […]
When the going gets tough, the tough go to Yik Yak to complain about it. This week we had the great return of some campus pets (standing ovation for Moo Moo) and resurgence of old lore. For those who are wondering who ACAC Bill is, think of the “SpongeBob” episode where they’re painting Mr. Krab’s […]
No one pulls a fast one on us. Not even the man himself. Returning TU students were devastated last week in the wake of the 11th Street QuikTrip shutting down early August. I didn’t believe it myself, at first. I drove the length of campus three times before I finally accepted it. The building — […]
Aries (March 21-April 19): PSA to all Aries, getting cut off when talking is annoying, for those talking and listening, don’t butt into conversations that you don’t belong in. Nobody wants to hear your most lukewarm, middle of the road, indecisive take on politics, food and fraternity drama, loser. Taurus (April 20-May 20): Gaslighting, who […]
