Far-left democrats have recently been concerned with shutting down hate speech.
Like many alumni of our great Auburn Family, I have watched with horror and shame over the past few weeks as white supremacy reared its uninspired head on the loveliest little campus on the “loveliest village on The Plains.”
We weren't sure what to expect from Richard Spencer's visit to campus. We, along with much of the Auburn Family, hoped for the best and prepared for the worst.

Richard Spencer, a leader in the alt-right movement who wants to speak on the Auburn University campus Tuesday night. University officials have denied his request. Mr. Spencer has stated that Auburn University will "rue the day" they denied him the opportunity to speak on campus.
Congratulations on being unanimously approved by the Board of Trustees as Auburn University`s 19th president.
Congratulations to Auburn for courageously forbidding Mr. Spencer to speak on campus. Controversial views, especially from the despicable Right, should be strictly quarantined.

I observed the installation of Steven Leath as AU’s 19th president at the University Ballroom March 20.
I have just recently read the article about the Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter here at Auburn.

Many people ask, "Why is there a Black History Month?"
We are called the “United States” because all our states are united in the belief that all are created equal and deserve equal treatment under the law regardless of religion, ethnicity or economic advantage. In a democracy, the title “citizen” is higher than that of president, in part, because the president works for us.
On Nov. 7, thousands of Alabamians voted in their perceived self-interests and against their real self-interests as they have done so many times before.

Midterms are finally starting to finish and the semester is ramping up for the home stretch. Just as midterms are ending, SGA is starting to look to the next term of office for elected leadership in the executive and representative branches.
