June 4, 2013 | | One Comment Patrick Redford is a 3rd Year Geology/Geography Major. Check him out on twitter @patrickredford. In modern sports-thinking, there is a tendency to conflate football with war or baseball with patriotism in action. Obviously things are more complicated, but this is America and convenience reigns Read More

A Dollar Store Book Review

May 15, 2013 | When it comes to books I've found that price is not reflective of quality. Many of the least expensive hard-copy books available today are considered classic masterpieces.

The Context of Radical Islam

May 13, 2013 | Islamic radicalism is one of those issues that the American media always completely fails to properly analyze.  Recall back to the aftermath of 9/11 - the airwaves were cluttered with talk about "why do they hate us?" and the "clash of civilizations" and other polarizing, binary rhetoric.

May 11, 2013 | If Dead Week hasn't already killed you, then you're likely on track for finals next week. I use the phrase "on track" rather loosely, as some of us seem to be riding a smooth-sailing Monorail, while others are clinging to the roof of a derailing steam train. If you more easily imagined your journey Read More

Saying Goodbye to the SFMOMA

May 10, 2013 | A resident New Yorker for eighteen years, I have been to my fair share of art museums. The Guggenheim, the Met, the MoMa, even the Frick… you name it, I’ve perused their galleries and soaked up the sun (or frigid winter snow) in their outdoor gardens.
