Right now, prospective Badgers around the country are taking last-minute tours, reading up on different majors and trying to decide whether they can really see themselves walking up Bascom Hill for the next four years. Some students were eager to matriculate as soon as they got their acceptance email. Others are reluctant even now.
I used to marvel at the idea of buying a top for only $10 — until I learned it was being produced by someone who made less than $10 for a day’s work.
Recent political strife and doubt about our nation’s future can cause uniquely American ideas and experiences to leave a bitter taste. But solace in what makes America a unique nation can be found in one of its most popular genres of media: the Western.

This weekend, I said goodbye to one of my greatest passions: pretending to be a witness in fake court.
College campuses are notorious for being a refuge for difficult conversations and dialogue. Universities like UW-Madison bring together some of the best, brightest, and most diverse minds from around the world to engage on some of the most pressing issues of our time. Not only is free speech fundamental to our constitutional democracy and our campus, but it also catalyzes and sparks meaningful change.
President Donald Trump has built his platform on false claims of protecting American jobs. He’s promised a booming economy and safety for the Americans who voted for him. In an attempt to make good on his promises, he’s pushed for mass deportations and stricter border control, claiming his efforts will benefit the working class.
“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free” — this iconic inscription on the Statue of Liberty has long symbolized our nation’s welcome to all who seek opportunity and freedom on our shores. But today, that promise rings hollow for pro-Palestine students who risk deportation for daring to speak their minds.

American sports fans are no strangers to grand spectacles. From the roar of NFL stadiums to the nail-biting drama of NBA playoffs, the United States knows how to put on a show.
On Sunday, March 9, Wisconsin’s queer community suffered a great loss. This is It, the oldest gay bar in the state and Milwaukee’s unofficial drag hub, shut their doors without warning.
In the aftermath of the 2025 election, the Democratic Party faces a critical juncture. With political divisions deepening, the party should reconsider using an approach similar to U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders in order to engage with voters across America in rural areas.
Seniors — in about 20 days, you’ll be returning from your last spring break at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. All of a sudden, it’ll be Monday, March 31, and in about six weeks, we’ll be in our caps and gowns as official alumni of UW-Madison.
My “independent” MAGA-voting roommates claim I pushed them to vote for Trump, that my voice was too critical, too condescending and too accusatory. During the election season, I tended to agree. When it came to marketing Kamala Harris as the next president, the Democratic party repeated the same old strategy — urging voters to consider character above all else — even though the country was clearly begging for policy solutions or honest talk. Surprise surprise, it didn’t work.
February 28, 2025 — mark the date: this was the day American diplomacy turned into a live-action parody.
How far would you go to be a “real” man? It sounds strange, but new-age conservative influencers are set on finding the answer and exploiting it.
In the swirl of Washington politics, the release of a federal budget proposal can feel like a dull procedural affair — just another policy document churned out in the corridors of power.
True to my nature as a political science student, I’ve spent much of the first few weeks of the semester examining the Constitution, founding documents and Supreme Court cases in excruciating detail. That said, it’s come as a shock to me how relevant the debates of the 18th and 19th centuries are today. You would think that both time and legal precedent would have solved or at least provided some insight into the major questions of American Constitutionalism.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) have long been a pillar of medical and scientific advancement in the United States, funneling billions of dollars into universities to support groundbreaking research. But a recent decision by President Donald Trump to cap funding for university research — a decision currently blocked by a federal judge — threatens to upend this system, potentially jeopardizing not only the progress of scientific discovery but also the economic stability of research institutions across the country.
In 2017, Adele accepted the Grammy Award for Album of the Year for her album, “25.” While accepting the award, facing an audience of the biggest names in the music industry, and millions of viewers at home, she declared, “My artist of my life is Beyoncé [...] This album (Lemonade) was so monumental.” In the years since, the shoutout has practically become an internet meme.
