Religious discrimination or a poorly-worded plot?
Naomi Girson | opinions editor The University of Oklahoma is all over the news right now after Samantha Fulnecky was given a zero on her reaction paper to a study on how popularity is related to gender typicality in adolescence. She is accusing the school of religious discrimination. Though I would argue her unsourced references… Continue reading Religious discrimination or a poorly-worded plot?
Staff Editorial: Was it really the ‘fog of war?’
One after another. Those three words can describe how controversy-after-controversy continues to plague President Donald Trump’s second administration in its first year back in office. On September 2, United States Special Operations Command leader Navy Adm. Frank “Mitch” Bradley ordered a “double tap” strike on an alleged Venezuelan “narco-terrorism” boat, killing nine. In a declassified… Continue reading Staff Editorial: Was it really the ‘fog of war?’
Winter thoughts on homelessness
Gwendolyn Sobkowiak | staff writer As winter settles onto our campus in a brief and heavy mound of snow, concerns about people without housing Downtown makes its way back into public consciousness. Having had previous volunteer experience Downtown, I wanted to provide some insight that seems to be continuously left out from the discussion. Let’s… Continue reading Winter thoughts on homelessness
Eliyahu’s Elegies: 12/11
Eliyahu Gasson | editor-in-chief We all understand that American politics are polarized, and much has been done to try to counter that. Frankly, I’m tired of the topic. It feels like someone has been force-feeding me the sweetest and fattiest I’ve ever had. I’m full! The “civil discourse” discourse has become tired because we keep… Continue reading Eliyahu’s Elegies: 12/11

Diva’s Desk: 12/4
Diva KC | layout editor My greatest inspiration in the world is my larger-than-life, unbelievably strong mother. Of course, there were times when I didn’t think this way. I’m looking at a younger version of me with short hair parted down the middle, a new sense of style and ideas of the world. Like most… Continue reading Diva’s Desk: 12/4

The city and country mouse dichotomy is alive and well.
Gwendolyn Sobkowiak | staff writer I’m from South Oakland. Yes, South Oakland, Pittsburgh. Before you ask, no, I don’t mean I’m just living there while I go to Duquesne. No, I don’t mean I moved there, and it’s been long enough that I call it home. I literally mean that I grew up on Dawson… Continue reading The city and country mouse dichotomy is alive and well.
Your dog shouldn’t cost more than your car payment
Will Stover | staff writer Let me paint you a picture: You’re a college student who’s always dreamed of having a dog. You’ve got the time, the love and a reasonably pet-friendly apartment. What you don’t have is $5,000 sitting around for when Fluffy eats a sock and needs emergency surgery. Welcome to modern pet… Continue reading Your dog shouldn’t cost more than your car payment
Staff Editorial: Don’t let him call you a pig!
“A third-rate reporter who is ugly, both inside and out.” “Are you stupid?” “Quiet, piggy.” These scathing comments made by President Donald Trump toward female reporters have dominated the headlines over the past few weeks and are the most recent example of his “honest,” “frank” and “respectful” demeanor, according to White House Press Secretary Karoline… Continue reading Staff Editorial: Don’t let him call you a pig!
Why I don’t need alcohol to have a good time
Naomi Girson | opinions editor I turned 21 last week. I’ve only had one drink since, and I didn’t even finish it. I got a chocolate martini when I went out to dinner with my parents, and after about three sips, the rest was placed on my mom’s side of the table. I wish I… Continue reading Why I don’t need alcohol to have a good time
Staff Editorial: Release the files!
In a time where polarizing viewpoints reign over our country, a 427-to-1 vote passed in the House to approve a bill directing the Justice Department to release all files related to its investigation into the convicted sex offender Jeffery Epstein. This comes after the controversy of the files became a political episode on Capitol Hill,… Continue reading Staff Editorial: Release the files!
Charlotte’s Corner: 11/20
Charlotte Shields-Rossi | a&e editor I felt a bit sluggish last week, so I decided to order Starbucks. I went on the app and ordered a Peppermint Mocha (in the name of holiday cheer). The app took my money and then proceeded to tell me my drink would be ready in 50 minutes. I didn’t… Continue reading Charlotte’s Corner: 11/20
