OPINIONS

     Imagine this: in twenty years, you’re asked how you met your partner. How many of us will say we met them online through an online app?      For many people, this may be the new normal. While it’s not inherently a bad thing - tons of couples...

     Chiropractics. Detoxes. Carnivore diets. The world of health, mental and otherwise, is dense with “alternative medicines” that, when scrutinized, lack a scientific backbone; it is, of course, anyone’s choice to pursue these practices for themselves, and their freedom shouldn’t be infringed upon. However, an issue arises when those...

     Hello readers! I’m so excited to start an ongoing column where we can talk all things fashion, love, and sex–and overall have a good place to yap. For my first article, and in the spirit of the season, I want to talk about Halloween, but more importantly, the...

Picture this: It’s 11:51 a.m., and you’re walking from the FLB to Ritter Hall, eager to earn that core art credit lingering over your head. You’re still pumped from the team workout you just completed and are replenishing your energy with a smoothie from the new robot. As you walk...

The flowers are blooming, the rain is pouring, and Ursinus’ Residence Life has sent many emails reminding everyone that the oft-stressful housing selection process is here again. As a freshman here at Ursinus, I did not have to worry about housing before coming here...
