...right here on The Crimson’s editorial page. A few weeks ago I wrote an Op-Ed pointing out that terrorism is male dominated. I received an unprecedented response, which I attributed to the mildly controversial nature and timing of the piece. I didn’t blink at the onslaught of letters to the editor and to my personal inbox. A plethora of students responded, four of whom accused me of using a national disaster to “forward my own political agenda.” (To clarify, I don’t have a political...

...That's fine. But don't forget about writing good songs while you're busy making sure every genre feels included in the conversation. From Blink-182's "Every Time I Look at You" to Sum 41's "Fat Lip" to Jettingham's "Cheating" the mode is uptempo, plaintive but not gloomy, a little angry but good-humored.
