Perspective: Serving as opinions editor has taught me tolerance. It’s easier than you think (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have been the opinions editor for two years now, which means that more than most students at this University, I have been privy to a variety of different student perspectives, and I also have a lot of opinions of my own that I am eager to argue about. And now that the semester is in full swing and the midterm elections are nearing, it has become more of a common occurrence to hear people express their political opinions in class, which means getting exposed to a wide range of perspectives and
Perspective: Don’t shrug off your general education classes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starting my senior year of college means finishing up the last of my general education requirements.

Read excerpt
With the beginning of August approaching, we have just under a month left before the start of the fall semester. For students just returning to D.C. after months of tuning out all things GW, it might be helpful to get caught up on the latest happenings around the District and on campus. And the news has been anything but slow, from the return to Greek Week at GW, after having been gone since 2022, to the closure of the Universal Health Services’ deal with GW over the Medical Faculty Associates.
