As many of you are aware, President Peterson recently interviewed with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution concerning proposed gun legislation. He said when asked if he supports the carriage of concealed weapons on campus, “Absolutely not.” Despite what you may think, I’m inclined to agree with him.

It is as if a state of drunken stupor persists when it comes to our commitment to the Afghan war, not to mention the Afghan people. We find ourselves in something of an “intellectual malaise,” if I can steal a quote from [...]

The first words on the homepage for Tech’s Office of Diversity Programs read, “Diversity is one of Georgia Tech’s greatest strengths.” But is it? The results of an investigative study by The Conservative Buzz into the political donations of Tech faculty, staff and administration found that an overwhelming near-90% of their private, personal campaign contributions [...]
Evidently, Georgia Tech Professor Thomas “Danny” Boston looks at President Obama through rose tinted glasses. In a recent interview on CNN, the economics professor gave President Obama a B overall grade for his first year in office. For a student of economics, Professor Boston surely missed the mark on this one. Let’s dissect his presidential [...]
