Harris failed to reinforce her base

Harris should have aligned her policies with those of her base. Those who align more with left-wing politics have been having apocalyptic views of the future of the nation over the past week following the re-election of Donald Trump. Many have said that Trump’s second rise will mark the end of American democracy, the dissolution […]

Trump elected for a second term

The systems in place will protect America against tyranny. In 2024, Donald Trump was elected president. And in 2025, the long run of the United States is going to end. Or at least that is what I have repeatedly heard from the media, political commentators and most frequently on social media. Some in this country […]

Tulsa’s mayoral race has been shrouded in controversy

Karen Keith’s campaign in particular has been a source of contention this local election cycle. It is important to remember the more state-specific and local elections taking place on election day as Nov. 5 quickly approaches. As mentioned in previous issues of The Collegian, hundreds of seats are for the taking across the country. This […]

State-wide questions are on the ballot

Oklahomans vote to retain justices and pass or fail state questions. Three justices on the Oklahoma Supreme Court are up for retention and two state questions will be approved or denied by the people of Oklahoma on Nov. 5. These are both significant parts of the election that will reshape Oklahoma as Oklahoma’s highest court […]

The week started with Fall Fest in which students […]

Ongoing midterms at TU

Students continue to take exams following the submission of midterm grades. On Oct. 18, midterm grades were due. For some, this marked the end of the midterm exam period, which makes sense seeing as the submission of midterm grades are meant to signify that the middle of the term has now closed. However, for other […]

Miss USA visited TU earlier this month

Her visit caused both positive and negative reactions. On Oct. 4, the current Miss USA winner Alma Cooper came to The University of Tulsa with Army to take pictures and videos with students and faculty and to watch Army rip our team’s hearts out and eat them like MREs. But who is Cooper, what is […]

Accessibility remains a struggle at TU

The university falls short in providing accessibility to all buildings on campus. Many students agree that the University of Tulsa could do better when it comes to accessibility and ADA compliance on campus. While the university is technically ADA compliant, many of its buildings and entrances should not be considered as such and seem to […]

Improvements of the Tulsa Market District on Route 66

TU students can take advantage of the new improvements along 11th Street and Lewis Avenue. Oklahoma has the most miles of Route 66 — the Mother Road — than any other state. This historical highway runs along 11th Street alongside the TU campus, giving students a front-row seat to the many revitalization efforts happening nearby. […]

Women’s sports continue to face problems at TU

Funding and media attention for female athletes are lacking equality. Light needs to be shed on the problems that women’s sports continue to face at The University of Tulsa even with the existence of Title IX. Title IX was a crucial step toward gender equality in athletics and education that brought significant progress, but still […]
