Even though it’s less than that of the mayor’s, it still could potentially produce an increase in diversity in the applicant pool. These proposed salary increases have the power to relieve elected officials economic stress of balancing a full-time job and focusing on city government.
There is no place for this in any institution of higher education and certainly not Auburn. Auburn enjoys its reputation as “the loveliest village on the plains,” and that’s not by accident or without strong institutional respect for others.
No one should die because they can’t pay. No one should avoid the doctor because they’re afraid they’ll be head-high in debt.
We, the Plainsman editorial board, not only stand behind those who voiced their concerns, but we stand behind the efforts to stop the quarry from being built.
Flowers and chocolate, fancy clothes and dinner gourmet. As a reminder that someone loves you much, much more, on this one specific day.
So, when Jane Fonda had that envelope in her hand and announced “Parasite” as the winner, there’s a reason why the Dolby Theater exploded into an excitement rarely ever heard at this type of awards show. For once, the Oscars actually got it right.
The message of Valentine's Day about showing your love for others is sweet. Even if you don't have a special someone to curl up next to at your local watering hole of choice this Friday, you can still enjoy the day, and with it falling on a Friday, the weekend as well.
Though Valentine's day is an annual holiday designed to acknowledge the admiration of one's love and friendship for another, every day should be filled with warmth and affection towards one another more than one day out the year.
As college students, we’re prone to making mistakes. It’s part of growing up, but drinking and driving isn’t the same as oversleeping for a class or tripping on the sidewalk outside of Skybar. Don’t let someone say, “it’s not that big of a deal.”
This past Saturday’s game between the No. 17 Auburn Tigers and the No. 13 Kentucky Wildcats was one of the most highly anticipated games in the history of Auburn basketball. With College GameDay coming to Auburn for the first time in the program’s history, the hype surrounding this game reached another level entirely. While the game itself lived up to the hype, the 12-15 hours that some fans experienced before the game did not come close.
Gameday’s arrival last weekend was something that fans should recognize its impact for Auburn, just like how they should not take the rise of Auburn basketball for granted. It was just a few short years ago when Auburn could only dream about having a nationally televised game or making the NCAA tournament.
This faltering start has created chaos for this crowded Democrat field. The confusion that ensued is one that will only benefit President Trump. As all the candidates question each other’s internal numbers and even the official figures, President Trump is campaigning on issues that matter.
There are 30,420 students on this campus. Only 903 of them are black women. And one of them just became SGA president.
Voting on an amendment is one of the most important duties of the job. Being unaware that you don’t have enough senators to vote is irresponsible.
As a player, Kobe didn’t pass. He’s not allowed to pass away. Every night, between 94- feet of hardwood, he always found a way to do the impossible. Why not live forever?
Homophobia is not a difference of belief. Homophobia is being opposed to someone’s freedom, simply because it does not align with yours.
As encouraging as it is to see others standing up against harmful language and ideology, it is also still disheartening to know that their request for inclusion is taken by some as stifling to diversity of thought. Inclusiveness only asks that we foster ideas that are constructive for everyone, eschewing those ideologies that reinforce uncomfortable, harmful environments for the marginalized.
I want you to know that we, the undersigned Black faculty and staff at Auburn, see you and all of the beauty and complexity of your young human selves. And more than anything else, I want you to know that we are here, that we are here with and for you.
