Coming into college, I was excited at the opportunity to choose classes that catered to my academic interests. Four years of high school had forced me to memorize sines, cosines and tangents, when all I wanted to do was read Sylvia Plath and write short stories — I thought graduation meant it was finally over. However, reality struck when discovering the University’s significant number of general education requirements for the College of Arts and Sciences. My first year has been spent fulfilling requirements rather than further exploring my academic interests. The University's plethora of general requirements hinder students from being able to take classes that they find interesting which can serve to stifle productivity and lessen motivation.

For the betterment of all students and their time in academia, the University should lessen general education requirements.

This authoritative group, responsible for “promoting virtue” in Iran, aggressively beat Amini for attempting to resist the inhumane treatment inflicted upon her. Amini fell into a coma as a result of severe skull fractures and died three days after the arrest. Iranian women were devastated. Mahsa was a sharp, bright woman who attended university and steered clear of politics — an unfortunate necessity for women in Iran. She was these things, and now she is not. She doesn’t get to be — all because she did not wear her hijab in conformance with the Islamic standards of the Iranian government. These heinous actions highlight that the Morality Police is anything but moral.
