Men’s mental health needs more attention Until very recently, I had been operating as an undiagnosed manic-depressive. As as a direct consequence, I have a year of straight Fs on my transcript, little in the way of on-paper accomplishments, and even had to take a year off from school. I consider myself...

Hudak will hurt affordable education for students When I first decided to pursue my degree at Queen’s University, I knew it would be an expensive endeavor.

The recent invitation and visit of a professor popular for her antifeminist views to our campus has given us cause to reflect upon the misinformed and divisive conversations that increasingly circulate on university campuses around what it means to take up and wear the label feminist.

Two egregious fallacies made their way into last Friday’s (Sept 21) edition of The Journal. As a devoted professor of logic, it would be remiss of me not to correct them.
