Opinion: Temporary political signage and online ads are invading our lives – The Battalion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You’ve heard of foreign invasions. Alien invasions. Even invasive plant species. But there’s one invasion we’ve all seen, all experienced and have done nothing about. Yes, I’m talking about the invasion of political advertising. You don’t have to go far to run into some Canva-designed yard sign or banner with a politician’s last name plastered across the front. Those who prefer to stay indoors aren’t safe, either. One can easily find campaign advertising before any YouTube video or television sh
Opinion: The death of the American Dream – The Battalion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The American Dream has long symbolized hope and served as a cornerstone for many immigrants who have come to this country. It suggests that anyone who resides in our land has the opportunity to succeed and achieve prosperity through their will and hard work.

I first heard of this ideal in third grade, and as a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed immigrant child, I imprinted it on my heart and h
Opinion: Manziel is not the standard – The Battalion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Johnny Manziel was never supposed to happen. Before taking a snap for Texas A&M, the redshirt freshman had already been arrested and jailed following a fight on Northgate.

Manziel completed
Opinion: A&M covers tradition with camouflage – The Battalion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For a football program so steeped in history and tradition — our last national championship being before World War II, after all — and a multitude of iconic uniforms at our disposal, you would think finding something to wear for our 150th anniversary would be nothing short of an easy task. If only there were some kind of historic uniform-wearing organization that has partnered with Texas A&M Athletics for uniform designs before that could serve as inspiration for this momentous event, pairing th
OPM Director Scott Kupar talks federal hiring overhaul, culture during campus visit to Texas A&M (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management, paid a visit to Texas A&M on Sept. 22 as part of a college speaking tour to discuss why he feels current students should consider working in the public sector and to detail recent changes in federal hiring practice. In a sit-down interview with The Battalion before his “fireside chat,” Kupor said he embarked on the college tour because of the federal government’s inability to attract young people into the public sector. “We as the fede
