Without a home

If having permanent housing will improve health, the homeless who are given apartments would be more likely to get back to work, and will eventually not need their rents subsidized.


Opinion

CONNOLLY: Missing the mark

To suggest that intolerance of hate speech is socially liberal (and thereby, is hate speech itself a product of social conservatism?) is an unfair classification.


Opinion

BERNSTEIN: Give peace a chance

This change has also already increased tensions in other Asian countries, including China and South Korea, both of which fear Japanese aggression and argue Japan risks creating hostility with this new policy.


Opinion

Opinion

WHISNANT: Duplicitous politics

In recent years, neoliberal ideology has increasingly revealed its limits while illustrating the necessity of grounding any kind of progressive vision in the lived experiences of the disadvantaged and marginalized.


Opinion

HORNE: Just a gift

In modern society, men do not pay for dates because the woman cannot. Men pay for dates as an act of kindness or a practice of tradition.


Opinion

Finding the good

We are not going to see incidents of gender-based violence disappear overnight. We must remember that tangible change will take time.


Opinion

KELLY: Safeguarding neutrality

Without strong enforcement of the principles of net neutrality, students and faculty alike will inevitably have to pay fees to receive prioritized transmission of the University’s content and services.
