Rape and the fear of rape is a part of the American college experience for women. On American college campuses, one in four undergraduate women will be sexually assaulted or raped by the time they graduate. Indicated by UW-Madison’s Association of American Universities Sexual Misconduct and Sexual Assault Climate Survey, our precious UW-Madison is no exception, with 27.6 percent of undergraduate female students reporting experiencing nonconsensual penetration or sexual touching.

College campuses continue to boast horrifying statistics on sexual assault even with programs in place to help educate incoming students about how to identify and prevent high-risk situations in which sexual assault can occur. Representing a disproportionate percent of reported sexual assaults are Greek organizations on campus; longitudinal studies show fraternity men are three times more likely to commit sexual assault than other college men.

Allocable segregated fees—the approximately $90 each UW-Madison student pays along with their tuition every year—go toward funding many clubs, resources and services across campus. However, according to the new budget proposal from Gov. Scott Walker, these fees will be made optional for students. While saving money may sound appealing, the loss of segregated fee income could be catastrophic for our campus community.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This article reflects the views of its writer, not of The Daily Cardinal as a whole. It should not have been published, as explained more fully in a note from the management desk, for which we deeply apologize. We ultimately decided to leave the article up, in order to avoid censorship and allow continued discussion and criticism of the piece.

I write to address and reiterate the importance of Good Samaritan laws having a more clear and progressive approach to protecting bystanders and the endangered person involved in a dangerous situation due to alcohol or drug use.

If I had a dollar for every single time I’ve been told a STEM degree is more valuable than a degree in something non-technical, I would be a wealthy man.

The summer before high school, I read "1984" by George Orwell. As I was still grasping the English language and needed lots of assistance in understanding the content, it was a challenging yet rewarding novel. I began to uncover the meanings behind Orwell’s words in the fictionalized dystopia. There were many things in the book that captivated my attention, yet there was a particular scene when the protagonist was captured, interrogated and forced to accept a lie as a fact. While I was reading at the time, I thought it was a very dramatic, rather extreme expression of some failing human cognitions, but it seems to be a very real and familiar flow of minds that surrounds us today.

Most people immediately think of race or ethnicity when they think of diversity, but I think there is another form of diversity that often goes unnoticed: diversity in viewpoint. I wrote a college essay once on this and am pretty sure that’s one of the reasons why I got an interview for the program I was applying for.

On Feb. 27, UW-Madison community members received a familiar “Timely Warning” email that highlighted the ongoing threat of burglary on campus. UW-Madison is obligated to send these emails under the Clery Act, which requires campuses to report specific crimes, such as homicide, sexual offenses and robbery. While these emails often describe the alleged perpetrator, rarely do they include identifying photographs like the one circulated on Monday.

The most common argument I hear when discussing immigration is that if immigrants—specifically Mexican immigrants—want to come to the U.S. so badly, why don’t they do it legally?

For over 100 years, UW-Madison has prided itself on the principle of “The Wisconsin Idea”—the idea that education should influence people’s lives beyond the classroom. One way that our university upholds this idea is through our student organizations. From professional student orgs that help supplement classes by introducing students to their career field, to global volunteer organizations that not only allow students the opportunity to participate in service but also to gain cultural perspective through their travels, student organizations are an integral part of the learning process here at UW-Madison. Allowing students the option of opting out of allocable segregated fees would destroy this system of education.

So far, President Donald Trump has had a controversial presidency in just his first month in office. He faced national outcry after his divisive travel ban was initiated and has faced backlash from major news organizations with his constant attacks on the media’s "fake news."

I’m sure a lot of people have seen the movie "Lilo & Stitch." I first saw this movie when I was in elementary school. At that time, I did not think too much about the themes or greater message behind the movie. However, when I think about the movie in retrospect, one of the deeper meanings behind it involves the importance of family.

When someone tells you they are in a long-distance relationship with someone who lives 1,000 miles away, it usually warrants one of the following responses: “Why in your right mind would you do that?” or “That’s adorable, you must really love each other!”
