In many ways, advocacy and activism start with the arts. Countless individuals use their creative talents combined with personal experiences to bring attention to a wide array of political and social issues. Addressing concerns such as racial inequality, body shaming and gender stereotypes with a creative approach does two very important things. The first is that it makes the message easier to receive. For those who are pushing for unequal treatment or those who just don’t care enough to pay attention to the social issues, hearing the message in a creative manner could potentially cause them to pay more attention. It may not change their minds, but it opens a dialogue. The second is causing an emotional impact. There’s something unique about expressing oneself through poetry, music or a comedy skit. The words come alive when they are recited in front of an audience. Emotions are stronger than plain facts; that is why the arts are a perfect place to push for change.

In the eyes of many sports fans, an athlete is often solely measured in terms of their wins, losses and statistics. However, to a college athlete, their experience at a university goes way beyond those measures. To most college athletes reflecting on their career, the ability to grow and develop into a stronger and better person through playing a college sport is their standard metric.

“I love you like Kanye loves Kanye” was one of the standout lyrics belted from the speakers of Madison Square Garden at the Yeezy Season 3 reveal, the event that nearly ruptured the Internet with its completely left-field presentation of fashion, music and Kanye West himself. The phrase has floated around the Internet in the form of cheeky memes and Valentine’s cards, but its revival in The Life of Pablo perfectly summarizes the event that’s sure to be a climactic point in future Kanye documentaries and biographies. How exactly does Kanye love Kanye? By creating an impossibly detailed self-portrait, complete with all of his greatness and imperfection and presenting it in the only venue large enough to hold his vision. Yeezy Season 3 was a reflection of not just Kanye himself, but of our current culture’s fixation of self-portraiture and self-realization.

Much of what head coach Paul Chryst had to say on National Signing Day Feb. 3 was difficult to conceptualize. That’s not to say his recruiting techniques are shrouded in mystery—his style is as straightforward as it gets—but the for the most part, his message had to be trusted blindly.

An Op-Ed published in The Daily Cardinal titled “The social impact of contraception” claimed the increased use of contraception has had a “devastating impact on our families, relationships and our society.” The author, Ben Miller, cites Pope Paul VI’s Humanae Vitae, an encyclical published in 1968 that predicted an increase in infidelity, objectification of women, overreach and corruption by public authorities, and immoral attempts by humankind to control their bodies if contraception use became widespread. Due to the flawed logic of his argument and disregard for the positive effects of contraception, we felt it necessary to respond.

“Mr. Robot” is a rare feat of television that dares to break the rules. USA Network’s revolutionary new series boldly stares society down and unspools a cautionary tale geared towards corporate America and the ugly world we live in. The innovative cinematography perfectly captures the beauty of chaos surrounding our everyday lives. Each carefully crafted element involved in the camerawork expertly mimics and expands on the mental state of Elliot, the main character.
