Trump or Biden: Where Do You Stand?

Ambar Delgado, Contributing Writer September 24, 2020
Below you will find an introductory guide to the platforms of Donald J. Trump and Joe Biden.

OPINION: There’s a clear candidate to achieve peace with North Korea

Jacob Sawyer, Staff Writer September 15, 2020
Unfortunately, U.S. President Donald Trump has failed to execute a strong peacemaking plan. While he held summits, for instance, they were more or less intended to show off to the world rather than actually committing to easing tensions. U.S. Democratic nominee Joe Biden, on the other hand, appears to be much more prepared to make real progress on this significant issue.

OPINION: Trump’s inaction on the USPS crisis should concern everyone

Jacob Sawyer, Staff Writer August 26, 2020
Over the past few decades, technology has evolved at an unprecedented pace, and many tasks that used to only be possible via mail, such as sending a letter to a loved one or paying bills, can now be completed quickly online. The Internet also helps protect the environment by saving all that paper. Add the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic into the picture, and suddenly we are sitting behind computer screens more than ever before.

REVIEW: Immigration Nation

William Becker, Staff Writer August 5, 2020
"Immigration Nation" focuses quite specifically on illegal immigrants, their families, and officers of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (also known as ICE.) It's personal and you can't help but find a lot of care and interest in the stories presented, particularly from that of the immigrants and the people directly impacted by immigration policies in the United States.
