Opinion
Spencer Swanson | Step aside Joe — Biden is not the best choice for President

Michael A. Keshmiri | All Penn employees deserve a living wage
It would be disgraceful for an Ivy League university with a multi-billion-dollar operating budget not to take the moral reins and pay all Penn employees a minimum wage between $20-$25 an hour.
Isabella Simonetti | Stanford is withholding its admissions rate. The Ivy League shouldn’t do the same.

Sophia DuRose | Seniority doesn’t mean priority when it comes to coffee shops
Am I being dramatic? Possibly. Does this discount the necessary conversation about the construct of seniority not being a valid argument in public spaces? Not at all.
