The shameful assassination of Charlie Kirk has brought out both the best and the worst of political conversation in America. Politicians on both sides of the aisle have used the traumatic and reprehensible event to urge political unity and to denounce political violence. On the other hand, Gov. Glenn Youngkin and President Donald Trump have used Kirk’s killing to advocate for the censorship of political disapproval. Choosing to follow in their footsteps, the College Republicans sent a letter to Interim President Paul Mahoney and the Board of Visitors pushing them to punish those they believe have justified Kirk’s killing. This letter to University administration is an affront to the principles of open discussion at the University. With their calls for administrative consequences, the CRs thumb their noses at the Jeffersonian principles of free speech that this University was founded to defend.

Taylor Swift’s newest studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” is fundamentally a victim of mismanaged expectations. When she announced the title and release date on Aug. 12, there seemed to be a noticeable shift from the somber and introspective mood of her previous release, “The Tortured Poets Department.” With glittery orange fonts and photoshoots evoking the glamour of Las Vegas, many fans expected a return to the upbeat thrillers of her 2014 blockbuster “1989,” which slingshotted her into superstardom.

The current presidential search committee is easily the largest and most diverse in University history. Many past search committees were only Board of Visitors members. Faculty and student seats only appeared — three total — during the selection of John Casteen, and it wasn’t until Teresa Sullivan’s appointment process which began in 2009 that the committee significantly expanded to include a broader community mix. The current presidential search committee includes 28 members — Board members, students, administrators, alumni and faculty — with at least as many faculty as the previous two. Given its composition, concerns about representation are unfounded.

In an era where cinema grows increasingly saturated with reboots, sequels and straight-to-streaming offerings, thinking about the future of creative filmmaking can sometimes feel disheartening.
