It is the start of another week. You groan as you crawl out of your bed and moan as you slide into your first lecture of the week, which happens to be an 8 a.m. As you attempt to stimulate conversation with the other “Monday haters” around, you word vomit all the complaints in your head.
In the new millennium, we can watch a police officer kill a citizen as easily as we can start a Netflix trial. These past few years of headlines, from Florida to Ferguson and beyond, have served as an archival of wrongdoing: a grandparent being beaten into the soil, black children being shot down in their neighborhoods, peaceful protestors swallowing tear gas in the night. America has swallowed its tax dollars into a whirlpool of distrust, time and again, leaving citizens clamoring for relief from the ailment of a system they can no longer trust.
Once, I read somewhere that all Stephen King wanted to be from a very young age was scared. His immeasurably active imagination did not disappoint, and he was able to find fear anywhere and scare himself quite easily.
It’s time to start mentally preparing for next week’s World Series, because my God, that is going to be one physically frustrating and stressful final week of baseball.
Last week, a list of safety tips originally entitled “Shedding the Victim Persona: Staying Safe on Campus” was published by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Police Department. The list swiftly attracted national attention after a front-page post on Jezebel, a blog-style website aimed at women’s interests, slammed UWPD for using victim-blaming language. Among pointers like “don’t travel alone,” “travel on well-lit paths,” “pre-plan” and “drink responsibly”—suggestions commonly featured in similar lists about campus safety—were more aggressively worded tips such as “If you present yourself as easy prey, then expect to attract some wolves;” “Be a hard target—a victim looks like a victim!” and “The right attitude is ‘I won’t let it happen to me!’”

Brin Riley, a University of Wisconsin-Madison senior, woke up to the iconic sound of a Facebook message iPhone notification from her roommate Saturday when she found out her residence was being robbed.
On the surface, the recent efforts by the United States to quash the advance of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) ostensibly demonstrates the degree to which the U.S. is committed to promoting democracy around the world and preventing forced rule by violent demagogues. Undoubtedly, ISIL is a horrendous organization whose designs for establishing a 21st century caliphate have resulted in death and destruction for those deemed unworthy of inclusion in the new Islamic state. The United States is right to denounce ISIL regardless of whether or not the current military engagement with the group proves to be effective in the long run. However, the fight against ISIL serves to remind us of a major discrepancy in American foreign policy. Even though it posits itself as a champion of democracy and justice around the world, the United States has shown time and again that it’s more than willing to support thoroughly undemocratic countries when doing so satisfies its strategic interests.
EVANSTON, Ill.—Wisconsin began its Big Ten schedule with a humiliating road loss to Northwestern Saturday in a game that should have served as a springboard into the rest of conference play.
An unusual tribe has been living among the Madison community for two years.
The word exercising is not in my vocabulary. In fact, “let’s get swole” would not be a phrase you’d ever hear me say. I’m all for staying fit and living a healthy lifestyle, but going to the gym would never be my idea of fun. As a five-foot-eight-inch male who is fairly thin, I’ve never had to exercise to keep my shape. My entire family is all relatively skinny so I’ll have to thank my genetics for what I’m working with. “Hey Genetics, is this all you’re giving me? This is how muscular of a person I’ll be? Okay, alright. That’s fine with me.”
Robert Havenstein led an offensive line that seemed to wake up after halftime, breaking a malaise that limited the rushing offense and left Wisconsin tied at halftime against a weak opponent.
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” Maya Angelou is a classy lady and I completely agree with her. Every fictional and true story has the right to be told and heard. Well, unless your story is stupid. Then you should probably go sit in a corner and reflect over your many failings as a human being.
I’m sure many of you reading this are “owners” of fancy football clubs. Apparently this is the new Internet craze of millennials. Well I’m here to tell you that this fancy fantasy world you’re all caught up in needs to be brought back to utilitarian reality.
