Alexei Navalny, the fiercest foe of Russian President Vladimir Putin who crusaded against official corruption and staged massive anti-Kremlin protests, died in prison Friday, Russian authorities said. World leaders condemned Russia and Putin for his imprisonment and death.

University of St. Thomas Grace Hall residents expressed frustration after construction on the Lee and Penny Anderson Arena suddenly diverted walking paths to the dorm Tuesday morning.

Residents in the area are frustrated that they did not receive notice of these changes in additional construction and new paths prior to the change, with one recent Fizz post comparing South Campus to “living in hell.”
