On Nov. 19, with a razor-thin majority of 220 to 213, the United States House of Representatives passed the Build Back Better Act. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi succinctly remarked, “This bill is monumental. It’s historic. It’s transformative. It’s bigger than anything we have ever done.”
Everyone dreads getting calls from their jobs on off-days, with the ominous fear that they might ask you to come in and that your guilt will get the best of you. When you really need this one day off, the guilt leads you to succumb to working another shift.
When a developer proposed “Hub II”, a seven-story student apartment building with a rooftop swimming pool to be built on Langdon Street, then-student and District 8 Alder Sally Rohrer remembered being “sketched out.”
It seems the fourth time's the charm. After three rejected proposals, CoreSpaces, a nationwide real estate company, has been approved to build a third luxury apartment complex in downtown Madison. Past proposals were rejected by the Campus Area Neighborhood Association for reasons, such as improper prior management, impairing the historic character of the proposed site and creating barriers to affordable off-campus housing — to name just a few.
Rumours of a miniature-sized Target have long permeated the Madison community, and now, you cannot miss the stark red doors while walking down State Street. At the heart of off-campus student housing and food favorites, the small, but mighty supply depot has quickly become a competitor with Walgreens and Fresh Market for everything from groceries to toiletries.
Americans have slowly been coming to terms with the abuses of the criminal justice system. The horrific circumstances of George Floyd’s death last May sparked national protest, shifting the push to end qualified immunity — a rule that protects police officers from civil suits — from libertarian circles into the popular press and the halls of congress. The abuses of power documented in the Making of a Murder Netflix series shocked millions, and the work of the Innocence Project is widely known.
Imagine this scenario: you’re a college student with two exams this week, an essay to write, a part-time job and a pile of laundry that’s been staring at you from across the room, begging to be cleaned. Your advisor keeps pressuring you to apply for a summer internship, you haven’t been to the gym in a while and your significant other has been nagging you to find enough time to take them on a date.
As college students, we don’t want to miss out on the irreplaceable experience of being on campus. We want to attend class, not only to hear them lecture but to form actual human interactions with them. We wish to communicate with our classmates and we most definitely want to party! However, with the rise of COVID-19, once ordinary realities transformed into wishful thinking — a distant memory.
All around the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the leaves are highlighting a change in the seasons as students bundle up for the dropping temperatures and gradually adapt to their fall schedules. Especially with the return of in-person classes, students flooding throughout campus during passing periods, and game days featuring droves of fans in the streets eager to get to Camp Randall by “Jump Around,” we, as students, are finally given the opportunity to settle into a routine. However, what do we do when the face of our university announces she is changing her colors?
Maybe I’m writing this article because I’ve hit the point in the semester where the honeymoon phase of romanticizing how great my classes are and how easy they will be is over. Maybe I’m writing this essay because I'm at the age where one begins to question if their education will ever pay off. But most likely I’m writing this essay as a lazy college student who doesn’t look forward to working five days a week in a structured setting to only have two days off to fit our “life” into.

The word feminism can elicit reactions ranging from unadulterated hatred to unyielding pride, depending on who you ask. It can conjure images of suffragettes with hands thrown in the air and brazen expressions plastered on their faces. It can be a source of power and a derivation of selfhood. Yet — at the other end of the spectrum — the word can invoke imagery of brash women who like to complain about unfounded injustices. It can be a reactionary discourse on how, “women have the same rights as men now.”
