Reducing free play offers to gamblers has a minimal impact on the likelihood that they will return to a casino, according to a new academic study. However, completely removing free play incentives could prove problematic for casino operators, according to the same study.
The fall semester here at UNLV begins on Aug. 26. That will be the first time students will be returning to Beam Hall. It's been closed since the shooting on Dec. 6, and staff has been working hard to make sure students and faculty feel safe.
While many weight loss plans often suggest cutting down on carbs - health experts say they're a vital part of our diet, providing much-needed energy. Now, a new study has turned the tables by suggesting that one carb-rich food might not only help shed pounds but also lower blood sugar levels. The humble potato, particularly when baked, could be a game-changer for those managing type 2 diabetes, according to groundbreaking research led by Neda Akhavan.

Anyone entering UNLV’s Beam Hall will not notice any evidence of the deadly shooting in December 2023. Many damaged doors are repaired, and new security measures may be hard to spot. UNLV officials say keeping Beam Hall like it was before the shooting was intentional.
Beam Hall is the home of the Lee Business School at UNLV. It has several classrooms and faculty offices inside. This is where a deadly shooting happened on December 6, 2023, that left three dead and one wounded.
The potato is small enough to fit inside a person’s hand yet contains enough nutrients to whittle waistlines and lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Yet, despite the fact that potatoes – particularly the skins – are packed with health-boosting nutrients, they routinely get a bad rap among dieters.
The site of a tragic shooting at UNLV last year reopened to the public Tuesday morning with new security features. It comes eight months after a shooter disgruntled over being rejected for a job killed three faculty members and left a fourth injured in Frank and Estella Beam Hall during a campus shooting on Dec. 6, 2023. The building houses faculty offices and the business school.
When UNLV students return to Frank and Estella Beam Hall for classes in two weeks, nothing should look too different from last December — before the building was closed after a shooting spree that resulted in the death of three professors and left another severely wounded.
