While in my sociology class, our lecture reached the topic of whether or not college athletes should get paid. Students and student-athletes weighed in on the discussion, but as usual with such a controversial topic, our class did not really come to a complete consensus.
Happy November, everyone! While the 11th month of the year can be cold and gloomy and filled with wet socks and many pages of reading, fret not, friends: Thanksgiving is just two weeks away.
As the old adage goes, when you cut off the head of a snake, its body will stop moving.
After a defensive battle in Iowa that led the Badgers to capture the Heartland trophy, Wisconsin (4-1 Big 10, 6-2 overall) will need to mimic its performance this week as it welcomes BYU to Camp Randall Saturday. This is the first match-up between the two teams since 1980.
It looks like The Badger Herald has embraced the thoughts of the one Mr. David Hookstead again. And this one is a doozey!
Yesterday afternoon, while on a casual stroll to Starbucks, jobless University of Wisconsin-Madison sophomore and shell of a human being Katy Kartoolzy offered invaluable career advice to her friends.
In a recent Letter to the Editor published in the Badger Herald, University of Wisconsin-Madison junior David Hookstead outlined his feelings on the increased crime around campus. He proposes three steps to take to help lower crime: prioritize police attention, allow students with conceal-carry permits to carry guns on campus and for people to travel in groups specifically for women to travel in groups with a man. The latter two steps he offers are ridiculous proposals. Although I agree with him regarding the prioritization of police attention, his thinking on access to guns will likely create more problems than they solve and his assertion that travel in groups with men is what will protect us ignores the reality of circumstances around lots of crimes being alluded to.
In the process of running for office, every politician has to face the unavoidable question: are you going to raise taxes? So of course, as part of her new stint in politics Mary Burke was inevitably forced to answer the pesky tax question with the press. For Democrats like Burke, the question is cause for quite the controversy. The dilemma is to enact their programs. Democrats need a source of more revenue, but no politician wants to support raising taxes, especially a candidate running for election. So how do they say they’re not going to raise taxes when they really plan on doing so? Burke awkwardly answered that she would avoid raising state and local taxes but that she would make no pledge to actually do so.
A state senator sent a letter to state Senate President Mike Ellis, R-Neenah, Monday urging him to take action on a non-partisan redistricting bill currently sitting in the Senate Committee on Elections and Urban Affairs.
Oct. 21, 1772: English poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge is born.
Is terrorism rational? Can it be justified? And finally, is terrorism really a final option for oppressed people to utilize? Many would promptly say the act of terrorism is rational since terrorists exert violence in accordance with clear purpose oppression . Furthermore, despite the argument terrorism cannot be justified because it sacrifices civilians, many believe it is an inevitable consequence of marginalization and oppression exerted by superior power which cannot be challenged in conventional warfare. Then, can sacrifice of civilians be also be viewed as an inevitable result of human history? Is there any other way for terrorists to achieve their goal? In that question lies myriad numbers of assertions and thoughts about terrorism and I would like to share mine; terrorism cannot be a final option.
Cass McCombs is a unique kind of artist. He doesn’t involve himself in the press nor does he particularly enjoy the music industry. What he does love, however, is music. This passion has been evident in all of his albums and it’s the outlet he uses to make himself shine in a trade where being subtle is not the name of the game.
Same-sex marriage rights remain one of the big social issues of the day. The biggest gay rights news in the United States in the last few months was the Supreme Court’s ruling that the Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional, which allows the federal government to recognize same-sex marriages performed in jurisdictions where they are legal. New updates include renewed attempts to finally get legal recognition of same-sex marriage in New Jersey and Illinois.
Oct. 14, 1066: The Battle of Hastings occurs, as documented on the Bayeux Tapestry.
It took me a while to start writing this review. I had to sit in the middle of the floor and hug myself, rocking back and forth and muttering “It was just a movie, I should really relax” over and over. I’m at an ideological stalemate here; I usually only reserve the Mystery Science Theater 3000 mantra for movies that I actively dislike because they’re poorly made. But “Prisoners” isn’t poorly made. It’s actually one of the better films I’ve ever seen. But—and imagine now that I’m tugging at my shirt collar and swallowing nervously—that’s the problem.
Dear Mr. Scientist,
Three men robbed a man at gunpoint on State Street during busy Friday night hours, but the police were unable to locate the suspects partly because neither the victim nor any witnesses reported the crime for several minutes, according to Ald. Mike Verveer, District 4.
