The Pioneers of Rosemont

-Anonymous

Rosemont is in shambles.  Well, not so much anymore since our co-ed transition.  This extra injection of testosterone is just what this campus has been yearning for all along because apparently, our school was not good enough before.  Shame on you women, who, despite your best efforts, did nothing to help this school.  Obviously, Rosemont women never worked hard, excelled in academics, organized clubs and events, completed volunteer work, or instilled an inspiring sense of morality on campus. 

The Women Left Behind

-Anonymous

Rosemont is the center of a hub of change; largely due to the increase in the present male population.  Which is great right?  Now everyone has a reason to go to social events, parties, weekend events.  Heck, the food is better, and everyone can get a taste on the “male perspective.”  I was so busy focusing all my attention on the new boys (oh, sorry, men) that I didn’t realize they aren’t the only change here.  Now, when I get up in the morning I almost always wear make-up, something I didn’t used to worry about. 

A Review of the New Obama Administration

By Anna Martini

As an American who happens to be a Republican, my first thought after learning of President Obama’s many cabinet picks was, “thank goodness he’s not going too far to the left on some of the more important positions.” This is especially true when it comes to those who will steer the country through the current recession.

US Soldiers and Veterans in Desperate Need

By Allison Cepis and Damaris Zayas

The BBC World News recently stated that "ninety-three active duty soldiers had killed themselves by the end of last month." If that headline does not grab your attention, then little else will.

Lipstick Political Jungle

By Allison Cepis

Is a lipstick-wearing running mate a possible feminist issue?  Could the analogy of putting “lipstick on a pig” used in a political context be misconstrued as a sexist slur? 

A Freshman's Take on the Republican View

By Anna Martini

I grew up in a conservative Catholic family that would inevitably vote “Republican” most of the time.  When I was younger, I tended to believe what my parents taught me.  I assumed that they knew what they were talking about. Now that I am older, I still consider myself a Republican and a conservative; however, I now have my own valid reasons as to why.
