...laud these students’ efforts; the current system does a great disservice to undergraduates interested in ethnic studies who are forced to compromise their academic interests by concentrating in other tangentially-related fields. But at the very least, it would be logistically impossible for the University to create multiple new departments overnight. Instead, the University should allow new departments to evolve from a strengthened and revitalized ethnic studies program...
Logan P. McCarty ’96 leads a double life. For the last four years, his day job as the head teaching fellow for Chemistry 5: “Introduction for Principles of Chemistry” has made him famous among pre-meds, who laud him for his fun teaching style and know him only as the TF who concludes the final lectures with a song. But in between balancing chemical equations and teaching first-years the solubility equilibrium, McCarty’s found time to pursue his other passion—opera...

Feminists laud women-only discussion groups, dance teams and drama clubs, but when men try to create or maintain similar men-only groups, they are accused of discrimination. The feminist movement operates on the principle that past wrongs done to women can be remedied by preferential treatment now—that two wrongs will make a right. This reverse discrimination is not only unethical but also belies their alleged opposition to judgment or exclusion based on gender alone...
