Last year, I drew a comparison between the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol to the Munich Beer Hall Putsch of 1923 in Germany. Since writing that article, I have found myself noticing other similarities between our modern predicament and the history of Germany in the interwar period.
Vice President of External Affairs Harun Pacavar announced that senator elections will occur on Monday, April 10, and SGA will be promoting the elections through social media. SGA also plans to have a table setup in the CUB for the election to get as much student involvement as possible.
As a journalist, they teach you to be impartial. They teach you to not show biases and to report the news without showing a political stance. But with the recent events in Tennessee, I have to ask: When did children being murdered become a political issue? When did people being murdered in mass numbers on a near weekly basis become a political issue?
On Thursday, the Manhattan district attorney indicted former president Donald Trump on the charge that he used his wealth to silence adult film star Stormy Daniels after she had accused him of having an affair with her.
During my year of community college, I was lucky enough to be offered the opportunity to take an American Sign Language (ASL) course. I had taken ASL classes in high school before, though my class was taught by a hearing teacher, so it was not as immersive. However, during my year of ASL taught by a deaf professor, I consider it to be the class that has educated me most. I was able to learn about the history of an entire culture and gain perspective for their way of life. While my ASL course was certainly the most enriching one I have taken, I continue to wonder how different would the world be if they knew what I had learned?
We often have those celebrities who everyone treats as the Hollywood darlings. The celebrities with no haters or the ones who always seem to appear over and over again as the safe bet for drawing in audiences. One of the mainstay celebrities for nearly a decade now has been Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. However, I feel the cracks in the nice guy facade are starting to show.
We all love to focus on the lives and the goings-on of celebrities. Whether they are athletes, actors or Youtubers, as long as they are a recognized name, we love to see what goes on in their extravagant lives. Recently though, many have voiced concerns over how much we obsess over celebrities. People hyper fixate on Pedro Pascal, Jenna Ortega or whoever the “it” person is for that week.
I’ve long been a fan of HBO’s “Last Week Tonight” and its host, John Oliver, since his days on “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.” Recently, Oliver produced a segment on the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program. TANF is a federal program that is designed to help low-income families make ends meet. The segment covers some of the myriad of problems with the program, most of which stem from mismanagement of funds by state officials.
Red-tailed hawks live in North and Central America and often find their home in many environments such as plains, farmlands, open woodlands and deserts. They help farmers by picking off rodents and moles that disturb their crops by swooping down and grabbing them, exposing their bright yellow feet. You may have even seen a red-tailed hawk perched on an electricity post proudly puffing out its white and brown spotted chest as you drove by. Perhaps you have seen its iconic red tail as it relaxes on a branch in your neighborhood. Even if you are not actively searching for this bird, you cannot escape its famous call.
As Women’s History Month concludes, I wanted to showcase the experiences that my fellow ladies have endured through womanhood. Here is what “Being a woman” means to us.
Since my senior year of high school, I have worked in a boutique in the downtown of my hometown. Sure, I love being around cool clothes — let alone wearing them. However, the most wondrous aspect of my time working in retail has been discovering the ways in which fashion translates to everyday life. Though it has taken time and a little perspective, I constantly remind myself of the secrets of wisdom I have found hidden in the dressing room.

I am not one to be speechless. I am naturally pretty chatty, and I always have my two cents (or three or four) to add to almost any discussion, particularly conversations about Broadway.

As an artist, it can sometimes be difficult to find inspiration to continue making you art, whatever that may be. Sometimes, nothing in your life seems to move you enough to drive you to make your art and your creative well keeps coming up dry. This is a problem many artists run into, and is not something to be afraid of. Writer’s or artist’s block does not mean you are a bad writer or artist, it only means you are human.
