Mike Johnson, the new Speaker of the House and a Louisiana native who grew up in the Bible Belt, seems like a very palatable speaker candidate for most Christians and Republicans. Shaking hands and accepting prayer requests make him seem like the most harmless of political actors even if you don’t agree with his political ideology.

In recent years, discussions of the proper terminology to describe people who lack stable housing have emerged in the media. In situations where the term 'homeless' was once used without question, terms such as 'houseless,' 'unhoused' and 'unsheltered' have now been introduced as alternatives. For those of us who have grown up almost exclusively hearing the word 'homeless,' the shift toward new terms may seem confusing and unnecessary at first.

Internship season is well and truly upon us. If you’re a junior, like me, you’re likely knee-deep in applications and frequently experiencing anxiety-induced nightmares about missing deadlines. At this point, most of us could probably recite our resume word for word and write a cover letter in our sleep.

On Oct. 18, the Law School Admissions Council announced that it would remove the logic games, also known as the analytical reading section, from the Law School Admissions Test. This change reflects a settlement for a 2019 lawsuit, where a legally blind test taker said he was put at a disadvantage by the logic games section of the test, as it often requires drawing diagrams.

Halloween is a multi-day marathon for college students — there’s a reason why it's often called Halloweekend or even Halloweek. It’s an exciting excuse to pull together multiple costumes for each night spent celebrating and partying. After all, this particular occasion only comes once a year.

Like many others, I’ve spent the past week racking every inch of my brain for a creative Halloween costume: Fleabag from "Fleabag", Mia Thermopolis from "The Princess Diaries" and Steve from "Blue’s Clues" were my initial thoughts. But, in part due to the precarious state of my college student funds, this year I will be a black cat.

Election Day is fast approaching, but you probably don’t need me to tell you that. Chances are, you’ve already heard about the elections from the news, social media or a neighbor. As English speakers, this information seems almost unavoidable. You could live under a rock and still find candidates slipping flyers through the cracks.

The first time I ever voted in a general election was in 2020. It was in the middle of the pandemic, and I remember it was an unseasonably warm Sunday before Election Day, so my breath under the mask I wore while standing in line was a little unpleasant.

The two frontrunners for the upcoming presidential election are Donald Trump, 77, and President Joe Biden, 80 — who is also the oldest president who has ever held office. You can’t age out of running for office, but the ages of our top candidates, coupled with the death of Sen. Dianne Feinstein in September, may cause concern in some Americans' eyes.

Family vlogging in recent years has been a way for parents to share the lives of their kids on the internet and oftentimes make some money as well. Tasty Edits, a video editing service, describes YouTube family channels as a “fantastic and unique way of deep-diving into the adventure of raising children.”

For all my train fans, NYC subway girls or anyone who's ever taken the Amtrak from Durham to Charlotte, I have some good and bad news. The bad news is there is no chance of the Triangle getting a commuter rail at any point in the foreseeable future. GoTriangle’s feasibility study found it would cost $3.3 billion and that the region's local governments would need to fund the entire thing.

When I first got to UNC, I didn’t know there were different expectations that came with studying at different libraries. Whether it was Wilson, the UL or Davis, when I walked into each of these different spaces, I instantly matched the levels of quietness and social patterns of others around me. I never thought twice about why each library had a collective way of being. I just studied and moved on with my day.

In "Campus Quandaries,” Satchel Walton explores the practical ethics of life at UNC through reader-submitted scenarios. This week, he takes on the social politics of changing housemates and the morality of taking toilet paper from public restrooms.

Ever since I got my first taste of civic engagement in fourth grade student council elections, I’ve yearned for the day when I can proudly wear a red, white and blue “I Voted” sticker on my chest.
