As election season approaches, the Alligator is always receptive to feedback

Slating for seats in Student Government ended at 5 p.m. Tuesday. Participation was high this semester: 617 students slated for Swamp Party, while 175 slated for the most recent incarnation of its opposition, Access Party. All in all, it was a civil affair — enthusiasm for the political process met the machinery of SG bureaucracy, signing up students to run for seats and affect the future of this university.

Meninism: a movement of misogyny and contradiction that sets back women’s rights

As issues concerning feminism become increasingly popular and hotly debated, a faction of its opponents attempt to match that growth and diminish feminism’s lasting effect. The men’s rights movement — or meninists, as they so cutely call themselves — represents the loudest organized voices against feminism, bemoaning a neglect of men they believe remains unaddressed. At best, this movement is a redundant protest of issues that feminism already seeks to address. At worst, meninists are making a misogynistic mockery of true activism and misguidedly placing blame.
