Opinion: Consider serving young adults alcohol — one drink at a time

By Editorial Board | February 20

Drinking is a big part of social culture on college campuses.

And with all the political mayhem this year, we’ve had a lot of other big issues to write about. But CUAB, don’t think we’ve forgotten about you.

Letter: DTH Yale editorial was misguided

February 16

Your comments about Zora Neale Hurston in your Feb. 14 editorial are misguided. The Trustees never considered the possibility of renaming Saunders Hall in the spring of 2015 for Hurston for two obvious reasons.
