CORRECTION: An ealier version of this article incorrectly stated that the University ofMichigan decided to cut ties with Wendy’s after pressure from student groups has energized the alliance. The franchisee’s lease expired when the school remodeled the building in which the restaurant was housed, and they did not pursue a bid for a new lease. The franchisee never had plans to return to UM or renew a lease. The story has been updated with the correct information. The Daily Tar Heel apologizes for this error.
Turning Point USA really likes America. No, they love America, goddammit, they love the people and the land and President Trump, but above all else — well, perhaps above all else but Trump — they love freedom, because being free is just so great and we wouldn’t have it without freedom, ya know? Turning Point's Ricky-Bobbian-f*ck-yeah-'Murica-style love for the ol’ US of A is present at any event they put on, but was at truly supercharged levels at their AMERICAFEST party at CPAC¹ this year. They had Rep. Dan Crenshaw. They had Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk. THEY HAD DONALD TRUMP JR. My god! What more could you want from a party!

Wednesday marks four years since the release of “The Hunting Ground,” a jarring documentary recounting sexual assault on college campuses throughout the U.S. The documentary covers schools of all types: storied Ivy Leagues like Harvard, Florida State University’s celebrated football player. But, the documentary clearly directs its attention toward one school: UNC.
Say this for Trump. Say that he’s exposed everyone for who they are.
It’s hard to express the depth of my disappointment with the Catholic Church in 500 words. I was raised in a staunchly Catholic family, and my parents are still my favorite types of Catholics: intellectually engaged with the Church’s long history of social justice work, and convinced that the grace of God can be found in art and literature and small acts of kindness. They work together as criminal defense attorneys, and their faith informs their shared belief that everyone deserves a good defense against incarceration. I went to an all-girls Catholic school, where I was taught to prize intellectual curiosity, personal faith and social action.
