Well Armed, Ill Considered

Though we do not envy the job of university police departments in this age of political myopia around gun violence, Northeastern’s choice is a poor one that underscores just how unmoored from reality our response to mass shootings has become.

Asked and Answered

The establishment of Asian American studies at Harvard should be a top priority.

Deliberate Progress

Progress may be a duty on us all, but it must happen deliberately, with due consideration of consequences.

Keep the Common Core

As Harvard students, we should care about standardized tests as a means toward ensuring quality and equality in education, yielding more diverse college classes and better lives for students.

A Wholly Imperfect Union

Neither intellectually nor historically does the premise of a white student union make sense.

A Misguided Proposal

At the core of this proposal is the University administration’s steadfast refusal to realize the flaws of the current Program in General Education.

Opening the Concentrations

While it would be impractical to argue that students should not consider their employment prospects while choosing a concentration, every academic opportunity at the College should be available to every student regardless of prior experiences with the field.

No Masterstroke

Rather than legitimizing these games of word association, Harvard and its administrators ought to spend time addressing actual issues of inclusivity on campus.
