Opinion
CU students challenge identity and gender dysphoria
Boulder has resources and communities for transgender persons

Free Gilad Shalit
The international community should demand his immediate release

Thank you, CU?
High standards prepare students for the working world
As graduating seniors, we’re often asked, “Are you ready to join the real world?” And though the adult responsibilities of mortgages, taxes and 401(k)s are intimidating, both of us can say we are quite ready to jump into the realm of professional journalism thanks to those who have believed in us.
Enough with the taboo: Girls can do it too
Self-service should not be limited to one sex
OPINION – Masturbation. It’s a topic we tend to step over lightly, only joking about the guys doing it.
