Letter: Earning a good government
The government that can intercept any digital communication on the face of the earth does not seem capable of processing the information citizens voluntarily provide about their eligibility for health insurance. The National Security Agency surveillance controversy and the tortured rollout of the Obamacare website are two sides of the same coin. They explain why…
Letter: Going international
Concordia College often encourages us to study abroad or get an internship or co-op opportunity. Even if I decided I would not be studying abroad via Concordia programs, I am technically studying abroad and have for the past two years, as I am originally from France.

Letter: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy
With a schedule consisting of five classes, two jobs and seemingly endless commitment, I could not have thought of a more fitting allusion to describe my fall semester: all work and (minimal) play has truly dulled down my life at Concordia this year.

Even if Concordia makes constructing a performance hall a priority today, I do not believe even this year’s freshmen will see its completion before they graduate….
In defense of the Cobber Ring
A small gold and maroon band has been the victim of quite a bit of flack recently during the most exciting time of its life. It has been called a status symbol, a marketing tool and even been equated to contributing to white privilege on campus. It has also been the hot-button topic of discussion…
Colleges Against Cancer take over No Shave November
MOORHEAD- The gentlemen of Concordia are about to look a little scruffier than usual, but this time it may be for a cause. Colleges Against Cancer has turned No Shave November into an opportunity to raise money for cancer research. Junior Laura Wood, entertainment chair for CAC, said the idea for the event took about…
Time to change women’s studies
Give it a major and a new name Slowly, more and more people are starting to learn the true definition of feminism, a movement to end sexism, sexist exploitation and oppression.
