Column: Normalize politicians retiring from office

By Dayna Wilkerson | October 30

"Elected politicians should be held to the same expectations as the rest of us — the average retirement age in the U.S. is about 64, and more than half of our senators exceed this age. This should not be the case, and isn't normal in most jobs."

Column: What are we paying for? When will student costs reflect our quality of living?

By Dayna Wilkerson | October 1

"With these increases in the cost of all on-campus housing, we would expect housing-related issues to improve. But the mounting $1.1 billion maintenance backlog is saying otherwise. As of Thursday, there were broken elevators in Morrison, expired drinks in the vending machines in Koury and structural issues in these buildings themselves. Since it seems the additional money isn’t going to the residence halls, it must go to the housekeepers or workers, right? Nope."
