Hello, freshmen. You’ve survived your first month of college. As you celebrate Freshman Follies, we want to give you a list of follies you shouldn’t do this year. These are all things we upperclassmen have experienced, and we want you to learn from our mistakes. Don’t wait to get your Chapel credits. If you go everyday for the first half of the ...

Reese had it right: The church needs to reconsider LGBT acceptance
In lieu of one bold sermon including one brave female professor, and in a coliseum filled with generations of Christians both old and new, one powerful sentence was announced across the podium during the finale of a Church of Christ conference – the church needs and should reconsider our stance on the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender ...

Give the purple and white a chance to fight
The weekend we’ve been waiting for is finally here. For the first time since 1958, our football team will play on campus. Texans and non-Texans alike prepare for the all the pomp and circumstance that comes with football. But not every student is happy about the hype. We challenge the student body to give the stadium a chance, at least for a ... [Read More…]
How to become a Div. 1 school
It's finally here. We are closing in on the opening of the new Wildcat Stadium, and for the first time since 1958, the football team will be playing on campus. A total of $44 million went into building the stadium, which demonstrates ACU's commitment to bringing the structure to campus. While some might say that too much favoritism is ... [Read More…]
Our definition of tolerance is close-minded
Nothing is more valuable today than tolerance. Or so we think. Everywhere we turn, we're told to embrace the idea that anyone's idea, lifestyle or opinion is valid. It's okay for anyone to believe and practice anything. Unless you believe it okay to disagree with someone. Here is precisely where our modern definition of tolerance breaks ... [Read More…]
Repealing DACA could be the next best thing for immigration reform
There are four kinds of people on a shooting range. There's the steady people who say "Ready, Aim, Fire!" There's the guy who says, "Ready, Fire! Aim....oops." There's the cautious person who says, "Ready, Aim....oh wait, wait. Ready, Aim.....Ready, Aim." And then there's the guy who says, "Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire!" If these four types of ... [Read More…]
Letter to the Editor: Bubbles aren’t designed for growth
I write today in the hopes that you will share this message with your readers. Whether they agree with me or not is less important, although I do hope it will bring about a new discussion on campus relating to ACU’s policies towards LGBT students. Unlike most who have chimed in on this subject, I’m uniquely qualified to do so. As a ... [Read More…]
Editorial Board – What SA does and what they should be doing instead
RATED R Haley Remenar What SA does: Freshmen in SA Congress typically think they are going to do great things for the student body, but they soon realize the bulk of their job involves long meetings, voting on wordy bills and helping plan overrated events. Meanwhile, upperclassmen in business or political science realize SA Congress allows ... [Read More…]
If football doesn’t win, can ACU thrive at the Div. 1 level?
It's a question many alumni and students are asking. Can ACU excel at the Div. 1 level, even if football continues to struggle? Of course, the immediate answer is, absolutely. Or maybe it's hopefully. But let me help you make a more educated decision. For the last 10 months everything has been centered around the new Anthony Field at Wildcat ... [Read More…]
Column: Joel Osteen or Panda Express?
"They may not see the incredible in you right now. Keep shining. They will.," reads a tweet by @OsteenOrPanda. This is probably my favorite Twitter account of all time despite not posting any new content since 2015. It's satirical, but pretty realistic at the same time. I'm also convinced Osteen stared himself down in the mirror and spoke these ... [Read More…]
