Welcome to the War of Ideas

Welcome to the War of Ideas
What Side Will You Fight On?



Welcome to the battlefield. What is this war about; ideas. Debate rages on all over the country and indeed the world. This campus is no exception. You, like it or not, have just enlisted to fight. Even apathy is a side, but few people are truly and completely apathetic. Who you fight for is completely up to you. People will try to sway you, convince you their side is the only logical one. You must be prepared.

Luckily, preparation is easy. Especially in today’s world with information literally at your fingertips, there is no excuse for not staying informed. You don’t have to listen to hours of news broadcasts. You don’t have to scroll through every news website. That said, you should watch a quick news recap, or read through a select few websites. The most important thing to remember is to use multiple news sources. A little time goes a long way.


If you want to be a “heavy hitter” for your side, reading prominent political philosophy is a must. That is the best way you can be sure to be well armed. Don’t be afraid to voice your own opinion, or raise a counterpoint to someone else’s. With a little practice and a lot of persistence you may start to sway the masses. If you agree with the ideals of the mission statement of this publication, send me an e-mail. This publication is always looking for new staff, and a better platform on campus you are not likely to find.
