Darts and Laurels: Feb. 22, 2019
Feb. 21, 2019You wake up on Tuesday having to mentally prepare yourself for the next two days. Walking through Turlington is already a hassle, but this week is unlike any other — it is Student Government election week, which means you have to perfect your “I’m definitely on the phone right now and not just pretending so you won’t talk to me” face. You’ve been planning to vote anyway, so being stopped in Turlington is not on the agenda for the day.

Letter to the Editor: Sexual assault “Timely Warnings” are anything but timely
Feb. 21, 2019UF can do better when it comes to preventing sexual assault on campus. There have been reports of sexual assault, and even rape, occurring on our campus this month alone. So when I read an article about how Washington state lawmakers proposed a bill to create a sexual assault task force on college campuses, I wondered why UF doesn’t have such a thing. After all, aren’t we a top eight public university?

I’m emotional, but that doesn’t make me any less powerful
By Chasity Maynard | Feb. 21, 2019I’m an emotional woman. I’ll answer the question now: No, I’m not PMS-ing or hormonal. My emotions usually stem from my experiences, my normal and healthily shifting moods and my daily life. Not all women are as emotional as I am, and I think it would be fair to say I am more emotional than most of my female friends. Even so, every woman and every person on this planet has feelings.
