Before tricky exams, UW students rub a statue’s toe for good luck. After they graduate, they photograph themselves on its lap. The man that statue depicts authorized 38 Dakota men to be hanged in Mankato, Minnesota while president in 1862.
Recently, Matt Server, a guest columnist from The Daily Nebraskan, wrote that athletes are not justified in protesting during the national anthem. I disagree with his opinion.
Another week of NFL football has been met with another week of political statements. However, week five of the season saw a response from the administration that went beyond the Twitter rampages of the president. Vice President Mike Pence left the matchup between the Colts and 49ers when some players kneeled during the national anthem.
Having the religous freedom to deprive women of contraceptives is the despicable mindset of the Trump Administration. On Friday, Oct. 6, a roll-back on the contraceptive mandate that was brought up in the Affordable Care Act was introduced. The roll-back allows employers to exclude free-of-charge contraceptives from health care plans due to strong religious objections to the use of birth control. The removal of a mandate that has benefitted millions of women is not about reinstating religious liberty. Rather, it is about controlling women.
At the risk of henceforth being known as the campus dildo girl, I am inviting all Badgers to attend the Bonerfide Penis Arts Festival. The festival is being organized with Cocks Not Glocks UW-Madison in response to a visit by the pro-gun activist Katie Pavlich.
On Monday night, a panel of three UW professors will take the stage to address this year’s Go Big Read, “Hillbilly Elegy.”
We all know what happened in Las Vegas last Sunday.
What was supposed to be a fun and joyous time for everyone that was attending the Route 91 music festival quickly turned into a war zone in Las Vegas. Last night while I was watching the horrific scenes unfold, I noticed that everyone in the news media was initially tentative in calling this a terrorist act.
I’ve always wondered what was going through Francis Scott Key’s mind on the night he wrote “The Star Spangled Banner.” When he saw Old Glory waving at dawn’s early light after spending the night expecting to see the enemy’s flag flying, his pride for his country had to have been at an all-time high.
Monday morning our country awoke to news that has become all too familiar. Sunday night a lone, cowardly, gunman opened fire on innocent concertgoers from the window of a Las Vegas hotel. The chaotic scene lasted for almost 10 minutes and by the time the police located the shooter, Stephen Paddock, at least 50 people were dead and hundreds more were injured in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
According to UHS, 9 percent of UW-Madison students have reported experiencing suicidal ideations over the past year. While that statistic is a single digit, think about it this way — in your lecture of 400, that means that just under 40 people have contemplated suicide over the past year. While the causes and factors that contribute to mental illness are largely varied and sometimes unknown, college conditions can exacerbate this already prevalent issue.
Music has the power to evoke so many different emotions. It can cause happiness, joy, and sadness but it can also change a life. It’s amazing how the movement of different chords and beats attached to words can have such a big impact on someone’s life.
Science outreach figures are practically heroes in a time when the president has given the finger to the Paris Agreement and the Flat Earth Society is gaining traction on social media. However, these icons of logic are not experts in every conceivable area, and I caution against taking their word as gospel, even if they’re these people:
Who would have ever thought that the President of the United States and the National Football League would be butting heads. It’s absolutely incredible what has happened in sports this past weekend. You scroll through Twitter seeing endless videos of football players, coaches and general managers joining in on the #TakeAKnee movement. Are they wrong? Or are they right?
One of the rising problems regarding drug abuse is the misuse of opioids. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states in its 2015 report that death rates for synthetic opioids from 2014-2015 increased 72.2 percent. The noticeable increase in adverse effects raises several questions: What are opioids? Why are they problematic? And most importantly, what can we do to help people cope with the problem?
Doesn’t it seem like everyone around you has their life so much more figured out than you do?
Free Speech is not, and cannot, be selective. This is an idea often, and ironically, overlooked by State Sen. Steve Nass, R-Whitewater.
Many people, understandably, want to know more about their food and how it’s produced. With recent news stories about chemicals in ice cream, confined cows and intimidating science, it can be hard to know what to believe.
I am not from Madison, WI. I come from the buzzing city of Los Angeles, Calif. I just finished my first official full week of college and I’m truly exhausted. I’m exhausted of all the work but ultimately exhausted of questions, looks and awkward vibes I receive on a daily basis.
Suicide is a term riddled with a negative connotation, and yet it is commonplace in society today.
