The Campus is The World

After being recently able to get enough pages to print our Nation & World page — which is something I absolutely adore — I've been struck with how truly limited my world view is.

Big news on campus that could potentially affect every person here would mean nothing to a refugee. The refugee probably doesn't even know where Cincinnati is. But we know of the refugees. We sympathize with them and hope for the best for them. Their biggest problem isn't so much waking up and passing a class and graduating. It's not being killed.

I find it strange, really. To think that, right now, there are countries that are struggling in an attempt to reconcile government with society and living in strife and a state of instability many of us can't even imagine.

So, if you have time, read the Nation & World page. And learn! LEARN!
