Burke: Title IX is not just about sports, it includes all of us

Callum Burke, Staff Reporter December 6, 2022
The discussion of Title IX, specifically within a collegiate setting, is not uncommon. It is a topic mentioned in classrooms, lecture halls and even in passing conversations on campus among students.

Stella: Let’s look for and celebrate women leaders at CSU

Michael Stella, Staff Reporter December 5, 2022
In 2019, Joyce McConnell was named the first woman president in Colorado State University's more than 150-year history. Then, over last summer and after a mutual agreement with the CSU System Board of Governors, her tenure of only three years came to an end. The decision to let McConnell go was not only a shortsighted move for the university in a number of ways, but it also comes at a time when women's voices need to be elevated.

Michael Stella, Staff Reporter December 3, 2022
A red wave was all pundits talked about in regard to the 2022 midterms, but when the votes were counted, it turned out to be more like a red drop.  The Democratic Party has many different voting blocs to be thankful for this post-election holiday season, but one they should be the most thankful for is the youth voters of America.
