Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
It's happened: We've blown another summer. America's future leaders are piling back to their schools, and we're honoring them with how-to's, survival guides and personal stories of failure from Observer staff. That's right, It's College Week.
In the tiny confines of a dorm room, real estate is at a premium. Giving up a two foot by three foot chunk of wall space requires commitment -- you want the picture you hang to identify you, and allow everyone the opportunity to see how deep your still waters truly run. Mostly, it just screams "Freshman art." The dorm poster is a precursor to your first apartment where you'll use bean bags as dining room chairs and milk crates as patio furniture. Until that day arrives, embrace your decor and stack it against these 20 classics.
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
