“I want to smash your face into the concrete," said one passing stranger to pro-life Clemson students.

Read @Kels1522 article about her experience with campus harassment.

“Stacey Abrams does not have the momentum she once did when she ran for governor the first time. Kemp is polling very well. At this point, Stacey Abrams is just auditioning for the next spot on The View.” @armanigracia

GRACIA: Finally, it has arrived. The 2020 midterms are today. If you are majoring in political science or actively involved in politics, this is the political Super Bowl  – or the World Series (Go Astros!).

The midterm elections are pivotal for South Carolina state politics. On the state level, every seat in the state House of Representatives is up for grabs, as are all statewide offices.

With the election being on Tuesday, I am thinking about a quote I wrote in my latest article with @ttobserver regarding the Hispanic vote.

I think that the Hispanic community is going to shatter records in voter turnout in favor for Republicans.

“The backsliding of Clemson’s service-oriented community culture is tremendous. Even on the simple level of assisting freshman move in, volunteer service opportunities are now limited or under-advertised by the University.”

The Tiger Town Observer editorial staff wishes to express our deep disappointment with Clemson University’s new implementation of RealResponse.

[Tiger Town Observer @ttobserver]

The app puts professors, students, and staff alike under constant threat of a simple text message escalating into a full investigation. As members of this community, we are deeply disturbed by these implications.

[Tiger Town Observer @ttobserver]

🚨This week, @ClemsonUniv became the ‘first university in the nation’ to implement RealResponse - an anonymous text message reporting system - to all students, faculty, and staff. 🚨

[Tiger Town Observer @ttobserver]

This system does not simply provide a platform for complaints to be filed – it encourages members of the Clemson Family to report on one another.

ICYMI With Taylor Rogers: ‘Take Back Pride’ At Clemson University

“If they’re fighting for respect and nondiscrimination…if that’s the part of free speech that is being taken away, I don’t see a problem with it.”

[Tiger Town Observer @ttobserver]

In a video obtained by the Observer, protesters marching on campus can be heard chanting, “Hey, hey, ho, ho, College Republicans have got to go.”

[Tiger Town Observer @ttobserver]

Organizers of the second ‘Take Back Pride’ march said the latest event is a protest against Clemson University’s continued lack of support for queer students.

Guten Tag!! Since it is October and Oktoberfest ended on the 3rd, this month’s drinking game is inspired by our German brethren.

“Speech being ‘offensive’ is not a valid justification for regulating individual expression. SLF is therefore asking Clemson University to reword its policies to clarify as such.”
