A case for political discussion

I (don’t) do politics

Eva Analitis | Tuesday, September 21, 2021

“I don’t do politics.”  Nowadays, this short sentence sparks fierce backlash from some, seeming like a spineless statement of privilege.

Blake Ziegler | Wednesday, November 11, 2020

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”.

A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
