Reading the world’s history, one family at a time

By Universe Contributor
February 06, 2023 12:00 AM
Joseph Stalin had many surprisingly kind things to say about President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s character when the President passed away. Kim Jong Un compared his meeting with President Donald Trump to “a scene in a fantasy film.” These world leaders famously disagreed on more than one issue, and publicly exchanged words. At least, they shared complicated relationships. Their interpersonal drama left an unmistakable impact on the world.

A new perspective on faith

By Brigham Tomco
February 06, 2023 12:00 AM
There are moments when the movie of your life is shattered by the stinging blow of perspective. When, like a third-person narrator, you are made to witness your own misunderstandings and misplaced assumptions. When you recognize with stunned lucidity that you are not who you thought you were, and that you may not have chosen the choices that define you.

Donald Trump once told me, “I always loved to fight.” But even those of us who know him and his fighting mentality have to marvel at his ability to find new battles. I mean really, Donald, you’re going to argue with the Pope? About Christianity?

Let’s face it; college students are poor. Many students find ways to squeeze the amount of what they have left for rent or food. Furthermore, some still have trouble understanding interest, loan terms and the importance of paying credit cards on time. According to U.S. News, 56 percent of college students between ages 18 and 24 have four or more credit cards, with an average balance of over $3,000. Students must learn financial literacy.

It’s shortsighted to remain in the rearguard on this issue, for reasons of gender equity as well as military strength.

When I found out that BYU had a gymnastics gymnasium on campus, I was ecstatic. I have been a gymnast for over half my life and competed for my high school team. I was excited for the opportunity to continue one of my passions. However, that opportunity never came. After talking to one of the STAC coaches during freshman orientation, I discovered that the gym only allows access to members of the collegiate gymnastics team or scheduled gymnastics class. When I tried to sign up for the class, it was full in both fall and winter semesters with hefty waitlists. Though the gymnastics gym is needed for the competing team and credit class, there is a way to provide more access to the gym that will accommodate the gymnastics class, collegiate team, and student body of BYU.

We had never heard of it until a few weeks ago, and we are naturally afraid of something unknown or new – especially when it is something we can’t control.

In the South, there is a certain guide upon which all relationships are built. What ever happened to holding the door for a woman? How did the classical “ma’am” become lost, only to be replaced by society’s “bae”? Boys, if you want to get off your couch this Friday night and spend it with someone else other than your mother, it is time for you to take notes.
