There are a million cheesy saying and quotes you will probably hear over the course of the next few weeks—from ‘all you can do is your best’ to ‘everything happens for a reason’ and ‘believe in yourself’—and your inclination may be to respond in annoyance and irritation, but the reality is that the sayings are mostly true. 

EDITORIAL | We stand with Dadeville

By Editorial Board | Spring 2023 | April 18

At the end of the day, we are just college students without answers. At this time, we don’t even have all the details about what occurred on April 15. All we can do is raise our weary, unified voices in support of those impacted and beg for justice.

EDITORIAL | Auburn, invest in the safety of your students

By Editorial Board | Spring 2023 | March 26

EDITORIAL | On "anti-white" slurs and Black History Month

By Editorial Board | Spring 2023 | February 16

People of all races should be treated equally and fairly. However, the motives behind the people who are insinuating that this google document is a violation equality and fairness are far more convoluted than simple. The contents of a google document that wasn’t even created by an Auburn student is not news, and this incident is not an example of persecution or discrimination.
