OPINION: Life after graduation

By Emily Enfinger | Photo Editor | November 2

Graduation is approaching and for many people this is a wondrous occasion. Many students have a pretty clear idea on what they are going to do after school and already have work lined up.

OPINION: Class registration's unpredictability is not fair

By Claire Tully | Campus Writer | October 28

Some of us are on multiple wait lists, while some of us are forced to take electives or classes we aren’t interested in. The question that constantly runs through my mind regarding this process, is why is there so much uncertainty with our schedules and with our graduation dates? More importantly, why is this the case when so many of us work hard and pay thousands of dollars a year to earn a degree within a certain timeframe?

OPINION: Gender stereotypes are only harming ourselves

By Ellen Jackson | Photographer | October 27

For as long as I can remember there have been unwritten rules we must follow in order to not appear different. In America, any differences from the norm are seen as weakness, not strength. And unfortunately, the ultimate judgment people get for being unique actually comes from our peers.

OPINION: The importance of waiting until you're willing

By Allison Phillips | Opinion Editor | October 21

When you get a pet, you are taking responsibility for another living being. You need to be in a place where you can, and want to make the pet a top priority.

OPINION: Support all members of the Auburn Family

By Emily Enfinger | Photo Editor | October 21

Although we are a student media group that is supported by the University, we are not here to act as it's PR. We are here to learn and become credible journalists who do their job and tell the truth. We are not here to entertain you. We are here to inform you of the news. Auburn fans should take pride in the fact that there are many groups and organizations on campus that help students reach their fullest potential in their study of interest by providing opportunities to practice and learn. They should support those students, because they are just as much of a representation of the University as any athlete.

OPINION: RBD is more than a study location

By Elizabeth Tiller | Online Editor | September 29

Most people go to the library to study with friends, or because the 4th floor keeps them more focused than they would be elsewhere. I use the library for studying the majority of the time, but I also use RBD for its archives and extensive book collection.

OPINION: Auburn must turn it around now to avoid disastrous season

By Evan McCullers | Assistant Sports Editor | September 26

Auburn has no shortage of problems, and the Tigers need to find solutions immediately if they hope to avoid a disappointing season.

Opinion: Growth brings many changes not all are for Auburn

September 25

I really didn’t know much about the University, except it had a big football program, and I heard it couldn’t make up its mind about a mascot.

OPINION: Being a fifth year is overrated

By Liz Maddux | Community Writer | September 25

How many times has someone said to you, “Stay in college as long as possible?” It is a phrase I heard over and over again my first four years in college.

OPINION: Turtle Time

By Eric Kim | Assistant Copy Editor | September 4

There has been a time in my life where I have questioned what it truly is to be generous. To act in complete selflessness for someone or something, in this case, a noble cause.

OPINION: Being a double major is worth the hassle

By Elizabeth Tiller | Online Editor | August 30

OPINION: Staying sane in an insane world

By Emily Esleck | Intrigue Editor | August 28

For many of us college students, we don't necessarily know who we are yet. You would think 21 or 22 years would be enough to figure it out.

Voting is a privilege we should respect

By Elizabeth Tiller | Online Editor | July 6

My father taught me it is the job of every U.S. citizen to vote, and that is a belief I carried with me when I decided to vote here at Auburn.

Go global to gain new perspectives on life

By Maria McIlwain | News Editor | June 21

There was something strange about the spaghetti. It was spicy. I later found out this was because of the hot sauce and cilantro. But perhaps the strangest thing was the tortillas the spaghetti was served with.

OPINION: Falling behind, spring sports leads the way for Athletics

By Evan McCullers | Sports Writer | June 19

Football has long been the primary sport at Auburn and at other schools throughout the Southeast, but occasionally other sports step up and steal the spotlight. That is exactly what happened at Auburn in the 2014-15 athletic year. However, football wasn’t the only sport to struggle.

Pressures of tradition in the Bible Belt

By Emily Enfinger | Photo Editor | April 20

Over the past few years, my Facebook newsfeed has evolved rapidly into a catchall of my peers’ engagements, wedding announcements, babies, “My boyfriend will be the best husband,” anniversaries and kitschy seasonal couple photos.

OPINION: Rank didn’t influence my school choice
