By Owen Lee, Staff Writer Schools in the U.S, including UMass Dartmouth, are set to federal regulations so that they can accommodate a wide range of students, including those that are physically disabled, chronically ill, or neurodivergent. In my personal experience, capitalist institutions such as colleges are quick to exploit customers and cut corners to save money, so these regulations are pretty important!

The latest attempt was the Graham-Cassidy Bill, which was thankfully … Continue reading Universal healthcare: Human right or radical left?

By Owen Lee, Staff Writer Sean Spicer was an honored speaker at the Emmys, and that’s horrible. As somebody who’s been paying even moderate attention to political events for the past year, Sean Spicer’s appearance at the 69th annual Emmys was honestly legitimately disturbing for me. The former White House Press Secretary was known as one of the president’s uglier cabinet picks, who openly lied … Continue reading Sean Spicer ruins a perfectly good awards show
