Too often this season, one phase of the game, whether it is pitching, offense or defense, has spoiled a good performance from the other two.

I have to respond to the article in The Post dated April 11 about the police carrying guns to the “fests.” Maybe these Festheads could volunteer to take a few rounds (so the cops can go get their weapons) when and if some wacko shows up knowing the cops are unarmed and decides he wants to get on the news for his few minutes of fame. You people have lost sight of reality. How arrogant you are to believe this could not happen in Athens, Ohio. Let’s just taser the wacko with the AR-15, that should do it.
Leah Petrovich, a senior studying broadcast news, did not know that her group project for her broadcast reporting class would win her and her five teammates $10,000.
We’ve covered all of our bases, right? We’ve reviewed local beers, not-so-local beers, IPAs, porters, brown ales, wheat ales ... the list goes on. We’ve done our duty as beer columnists, haven’t we? What more could we possibly say? By now it should be clear we like beer (a lot), and hopefully you’ve found a beer that you like because of us. So we’re done, right? We can stop?
Take Back the Night has a rich history, and it provides a therapeutic outlet for a lot of the women I know who participate, be they survivor or ally. However, the very basis of the event recalls an era of heteronormativity and gender binarism. This event makes many assumptions about men and women, and it erases the gender identities of people like me, who identify as neither male nor female. The scene depicted in Take Back the Night is a woman walking home at night who is jumped by a man and subsequently assaulted, even though we know that more than 75 percent of people who are assaulted are attacked by someone they know and often trust (National Institute of Justice Violence Against Women Survey, 2000). An event centered on sexual-assault prevention should discuss acquaintance rape, which is the most common kind of sexual assault. An event centered on ending rape culture that focuses only on women is outdated and defunct.
The topic of marriage equality has been a hot topic recently, especially with the Supreme Court case surrounding Prop 8, and for right now, the decision is split. As of 2012, about half of Americans do not support same-sex marriage, religion being at the forefront of their decision making. Being raised Catholic, I understand that marriage is one of the seven Holy Sacraments of the Catholic Church, and I can understand why opponents of marriage equality don’t want gays to marry under the eyes of God or in their church. But what I don’t understand is why, if we are a free country that has a strict policy regarding the separation of church and state, religion can even be a factor in this decision. Under the eyes of the law, marriage is a civil right, not a religious right, and two people who love each other and want to start a family together should be able to marry whomever they want, regardless of gender. I believe it is unconstitutional to not allow people the right to marry almost exclusively on the grounds that “in the eyes of God, homosexuality is a sin.”
