The Associated Students of Stanford University (ASSU) posted an instagram picture that included Taiwan (ROC) as part of China (PRC). Last Friday, October 9th, ASSU posted profiles of the Undergraduate Senate for this academic year, including in their bios where each member was from and including an image of their state/country. For one senator who was from Shanghai, the image was of China, unmistakably including Taiwan. The U.S. Congress has passed legislation (such as amendments in defense and
As the execution of Nidal Hasan approaches, it is time to review the death penalty. The death penalty is just punishment. It improves the rehabilitation of serious offenders, forcing them to grapple with the afterlife. America’s shift to ‘medical’ lethal injections is more painful and dangerous for prisoners and more expensive for taxpayers. Its popularity is rooted in aesthetics. We use it to allow onlookers to distance themselves from the act. Lethal injections go wrong often, and some medic
On October 7th, I wrote an opinion piece asking a simple question: Why is Stanford’s Structured Liberal Education (SLE) inviting a dominatrix to give advice to students and promote her book—which includes stories about poisoning coworker’s dads and then having sex with them, pineapple-sized dildos, and suicide kinks?

Last Wednesday, Marco Rubio stood in Athens, in my home country, and described the West: ashamed of its own greatness, no longer inventing, neglecting its industry.

* The Saudi Arabian Association at Stanford, a recognized student group, has extensive, documented ties to Abdulrahman Alfozan, the 35-year-old Saudi national and OpenAI engineer who was arrested last Friday and accused of bugging an executive conference room at the company. * In three public posts beginning in March 2025, student leaders of the club thanked Alfozan for his “generous support” and “backing” of the club. “None of this would have been possible without the incredible support of ou
Last fall, Stanford’s most cherished social traditions were targeted and taken down by university administration. EuroTrash, the infamous first party of the year hosted by Kappa Sigma, was cancelled, as was Sigma Phi Epsilon’s annual White Lies party. Others were pushed to later quarters. The result was one party on a given night with a crowd the size of five parties packed into it. When all the parties were cancelled and nearly every fraternity was placed on probation, freshmen resorted to dri
