UW condemns Trump’s federal funding cuts. It’s not enough.

By Safa Razvi | Jun. 5

Researchers are struggling, and the future of public health hangs in the balance. This isn’t just a bump in the road, it’s a direct attack on life-saving research and a targeted threat to international students whose immigration status and visas rely on a system that’s actively being dismantled. These cuts don’t just setback labs, they hit the heart of what UW-Madison stands for.

Today, the fast fashion industry is worth $114 billion. But the majority of clothes produced go to waste. While this throwaway culture is immensely profitable for corporations, it exploits workers and results in massive environmental damage. How much longer can we afford to produce cheap, quick items? The short answer? We’ve reached the end of the road.

When looking for clubs, don't seek comfort

By Safa Razvi | Jan. 23

Like many other students, when faced with more than 1,000 clubs to choose from, I wanted to stay in my comfort zone — giving major and career-oriented clubs first pick. But if my experience working with The Vault has taught me anything, exploring the unexpected can lead to fantastic results.

Students were shocked by the 2024 election results. They shouldn’t be

By Safa Razvi | Nov. 14

Letting campus serve as a political echo chamber may be comforting, but it will lead students to be disconnected from political realities.
