The White Rose: Student solidarity can shine a light in the darkest of times.

Holocaust Memorial Day takes place worldwide on the Sunday closest to 27th January every year. The day itself serves as a much needed highlighter of all forms of intolerance. Within the struggle of the oppressed people living under Nazi rule, there is a story for student circles worth reflection upon. Students’ unions have long espoused a view that we are not merely self-serving entities. Aside from trying to create education system we need, we also try to act as a social conscience, shaping the society that we believe in. In the summer of 1942, Nazi rule was engrained into practically […]

Women get to go and hang with their women friends while men stay at home and dust or something. Now, to be honest, the concept behind it makes me a little bit uncomfortable. I don’t particularly enjoy nor appreciate the patriarchal notions that come with it- the traditional ideals where women stay at home and do the […]
