The Bradford Pear blossoming. (Creative Commons / Mangrove Mike) Since the pandemic started, people have been walking more than ever, craving the fresh air and relishing maskless time outdoors.

Spice Up Life. | Sophia’s Smorgasbord
(Pixabay/Hans) “Could be spicier.” One of my favorite recurring comments from Ben Thomas (23C), one of the Wheel’s managing editors. More than a simple culinary descriptor, the word operates instead as a vivid, lively synonym of “interesting.” So let me present to you the spiciest information to have graced my life recently: capsaicin, the chemical [...]

(Emory Wheel / Alison Barlow) “The stock market is astrology for men.” In recent years, Sherrod DeGrippo’s tweet, and others comparing astrology to the stock market have gone viral, claiming they have the same degree of accuracy. While the comparison may seem silly, with the stock market dominating the global economy and astrology dominating Tik [...]

(Emory Wheel / Alison Barlow) In the last couple of weeks, two mass shootings in Atlanta and Boulder, Colorado dominated headlines. But it’s largely the news you don’t read that verifies what this pair of horrific tragedies hints at: guns are ruining the United States. Ultimately, we should want for all Americans to enjoy life, [...]
Wheel Debate: Banning Guns Doesn’t Work, but More Minority Pro-Gun Advocacy Does
(Emory Wheel / Angel Li) Ratified in 1791, the Second Amendment is one of the most integral American principles that has shaped this nation’s history, social ideals and national value system. The Second Amendment states, “a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep [...]
My Identity Crisis as of Late
Photo courtesy of Liv Walker. The evening of the Boulder, Colorado mass shooting and six days after the Atlanta spa attacks, I posted a tweet. As soon as I sent my message for the world to see, it started to garner more attention than any of my past tweets. It read: “I am an Asian [...]

We Must Prepare Ourselves for Post-Pandemic Life
(Creative Commons/wuestenigel) As 46 states open up their vaccination processes to all individuals above the ages of 16 or 18, Americans are preparing for a summer of greater immunity and looser restrictions. A pandemic-free life is on the horizon. A recent Axios-Ipsos poll found that during the first week of March, 44% of Americans reported [...]
