Note: This column is not intended as a slur to Madison Holleran, her family, friends and anyone who continues to grieve for her. I was as numbed by her story as anyone else who read it. Any life that is lost to suicide is one worth mourning for, which is ultimately the point I am trying to make, and I hope I have been able to communicate that point with clarity, honesty and respect. I sincerely apologize and accept fault if I have not.

I can summarize campus politics in two words: Yik Yak.

At least, someone who isn’t affiliated with the University, scouring Yik Yak or recent press coverage, would think this. Whether it is student government, student groups or student life, everyone has been constantly asking themselves: who’s at fault, who’s not, to sign or not to sign the next petition —can we do anything right anymore without taking, or giving, offense?

I’ve found myself frantically looking up slang terms in Urban Dictionary mid-conversation — discreetly on my phone — more frequently than I’ve had to look up a word in the Oxford English Dictionary.

I’ve been facing an existential crisis.

It turns out that college students are becoming hermits, particularly freshmen.

A study published on Thursday in the Journal of Basic Anthropology found that 70 percent of individuals who are popularly branded as “basic white chicks,” more colloquially known as “bwbs,” are not white. The research showed that the most recognizable symptoms of a bwb—thinking Uggs are effective snow boots, demonstrating an uncanny necessity for Starbucks-brand caffeine, speaking as though everything is a simile —are not unique to Caucasians.

Here’s a riddle: What is meant to make but never to keep?

If you’re anything like me, then you like to get your news from the ranks of Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and “The Onion.”

“And this is why freshmen should be forever banned from writing opinion pieces.”

They’d been together for ten years. But they’d been fighting a great deal recently, trying to eschew an inevitable split. And after an hour or two of careful retrospection and introspection, just like that, it was over. The two would part ways. It was time to let go and move on.

If you’d asked me two weeks ago what I expected of college, I certainly would not have said crooning “Wagon Wheel” in the company of people donning “Rage with Romney” bro tanks and American-flag Chubbies, and then pledging allegiance to an American flag hung on one wall of a cramped dorm on 9/11 (it should be noted that no one was sober in that room). I would never have foreseen my attending a pregame for the College Republicans during Freshman Week, trying to dodge fireballs in clamorous political discourse over Fireball.
