Election Reflection: Hannah Stulberg E'18
I am going to be honest—I did not do enough this election. I left the voter registration efforts, GOTV efforts, canvassing efforts, and so much more to my peers who I perceive as being more "politically active" and "into politics" than I am. I will not make this mistake again. "Democracy is not a spectator sport" is a quote that has been tossed around often this election cycle.

Election Reflection: Sophia Carlson C'19
I am so proud to be an American. We live in a democracy that allows us freedom of speech, the ability to vote, makes it lawful that we can love who we want to love, that we can be black or white or hispanic or asian or indian or any other multitude of ethnicities-- and under law, we are equal.
