As a Roman Catholic freshman aspiring to be a Physics major, Dr. Bojan Tunguz was an ideal interviewee to open my journalistic career. Dr. Tunguz is a Visiting Professor of Physics, who, aside from his recent employment at DePauw University, has several redeeming characteristics. A Stanford graduate whose area of expertise is in [...]

For some odd reason this election has brought out the worst in people. Whether it is the ridiculous attacks from both parties or the vicious bloggers who hide in the realms of cyberspace, human nature demonstrates its depravity each and every day. However, of all the vicious smears thus far, this one is certainly the [...]

What do you think of when you hear of the American Civil Liberties Union? Do you have a high or low opinion of the organization as a whole? Do you think they work in the best interest of civil rights? Unless you think they are a radical left-wing machine out to change the course of [...]

“I do not believe that any war can be justified as a crusade…[if you do] you must admit that the Soviets have a right to crusade to impose Communism on the rest of the world…a crusade by its very nature is an aggressive act.” Who said those words? Gene McCarthy? Henry Wallace? George McGovern? If [...]

I must first clarify, due to my title, that I like a certain brand of Ron Paul supporter. Dr. Paul ran a very libertarian campaign—that is, it was organized from the bottom up rather than the top down—and this attracted a very broad range of supporters who do not necessarily have any affiliation with [...]

In the midst of the culture wars here in modern day American, the issue between creation and evolution has received much controversy.
