Mental illness is a hot topic in political debate — which might be a good thing, given that our mental healthcare system is critically flawed and in dire need of legislative correction. However, most of the politicians, pundits and general public discussing it have no idea what they’re talking about.
Blacksburg, Virginia. Aurora, Colorado. Fort Hood, Texas. What do all these places have in common? Gun massacres. People whose lives were ended or severely damaged by mass shootings. And what did the gunmen in each situation have in common? Mental illnesses that should have prevented them from ever having a gun.
As time goes on, our understanding of psychology and the workings of the human brain expand further and further. In fact, the current Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the standard classification of mental disorders used by mental health professionals in the United States, lists more than 300 disorders which humans can have.
Administrators, faculty and students addressed the concerns of underrepresented portions of the student body Wednesday evening at the President's Inclusion Forum.
Last week, Michael Parks was briefly slated for a runoff election for student body president before a slew of elections violations brought him down. While one of those violations is being appealed, I want to step back and look at the implications of the election and, more importantly, what it says about the nation’s political system at large.

The word "stress" is all too familiar to most college students. Even in the slow weeks, there are plenty of things to worry about, so stress and anxiety management should be a regular priority in students' routines.
Until Wednesday, students will have the opportunity to visually experience what it is like to go through the worldly issues that plague many people in society.
University Housing is sponsoring the Tunnel of Awareness 2016 series for the third consecutive year at USC. Tunnel of Awareness is a literal tunnel containing a series of exhibits that allows participants to gain greater insight on various social injustices that plague local communities and areas across the country.

There are very few pure college students left, with regard to social media, and those who have managed to resist and abstain for this long probably have a level of mindfulness that’s long been unattainable for the rest of us. But participating in Facebook, Twitter and Instagram doesn’t have to mean being drawn into a vortex of FOMO and despair every time you sit down to write a Daily Gamecock article (or a paper for a class). There are countless websites dedicated to helping you procrastinate while — maybe, sort of — bettering yourself. Here are a few of my favorites.
The significance of football in this country cannot be overstated. The NFL is a multi-billion dollar industry. The league has its own day of the week. It is more than just a tradition. In the past, any negative views toward the NFL have quickly been shut down by not only the league but also by the fans that back it.
Depending on where they call home, students probably heard very different versions of President Obama's executive action on gun control that was announced over winter break. Liberal households heard about the President's teary-eyed plea for common sense solutions that the NRA-owned Republicans have been blocking in the legislature.

In some ways, both versions are correct while in others, they're both wrong.
The life of a college student typically consists of hectic schedules, stacks of assignments and the occasional cup of coffee to keep it all running smoothly. During final exam week, all of this is put on overdrive.
I’ve had the displeasure of reading Ken Ray’s letter in response to Linden Atelsek’s (admittedly partisan) column, “We don’t need another Reagan.” Rarely have I read something as patronizing or pedantic in under 300 words. Mr. Ray must be a parent; his article reads like a father bending a toddler across his knee. I half expected him to say, “Hush, Linden. The adults are talking.”
