I and other students have a deep concern for the worth of our degrees once we receive our diplomas from LSTC. We want LSTC to be the best it can be, and we want our hard work to pay off when we go out into the academic world applying for jobs.

Due to the negligence and ill mannered behavior of some of the Crismark residents and/or their guests, the 2 community pools are now closed during the week. Sign the petition in order to have the pools reopened to the community and to force the Board of Directors to deal with the culprits and not punish the entire community.

Donald Trump and his war cabinet just axed the Iran deal — in defiance of experts across the political spectrum. This reckless action puts us on a collision course to war with Iran. Demand Congress step in to stop Trump from dragging us into a terrible war with Iran.

Donald Trump's assassination of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani in Iraq is widely being viewed as an act of war. The American people do not want another chapter in the endless war in the Middle East with Iran, a nation of 80 million. Congress has not authorized war with Iran, nor assassination campaigns against Iranian generals and militias in Iraq. Yet Trump is running roughshod over Congress, blocking efforts to rein in his war authorities and taking steps that put the U.S. and Iran on a glidepath toward a messy, regional war. This is a 2002 moment for Congress, which must halt a reckless march to war. There are three steps Congress can take to prevent war with Iran: 1. Clarify that Trump does not have Congressional authorization for a disastrous war of choice with Iran. As tensions rise, this becomes all the more important. 2. Pass legislation to restrict the administration from further escalating its shadow war with Iran. 3. Demand Trump return to the negotiating table and invite in international mediators to forestall a rush to war.

Racial profiling is a cancer to the American dream, we must unite to end racial profiling towards the minorities. If we don't put an end to this now our future generation will be subjected to the same problem.

Everyday people are pulled over for speeding, and broken tail lights, but does it become an issue when law enforcement start pulling people over for no reason. The Fourth Amendment states “the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” Despite this right, multiple minorities across the country suffer at the hands of police officers through racial profiling; the singling out of a person or persons as the main suspect of a crime based on their race. Many people have also suffered the loss of a loved one because police believed the suspect to be a threat based on their races therefore the officers use their authority to take out the “threat”. Although racial profiling may make sense to police officers in the line of duty, through the eyes of the public and those affected by police actions, it is a form a racism that is not being confronted and is allowing unjust convictions and deaths. Police officials often use the practices of racial profiling to discretely single out minority races.

Last Thursday, the GOP attempt to make abortion illegal in South Carolina was thwarted by a unified effort by the state's Democratic Senators. All of the Democratic Senators pledged to filibuster until the end of the session to prevent a final vote on the abortion ban. Sen. Marlon Kimpson spoke for 8 hours to show the determination of the Senate's Democratic members. The Republicans relented, and sent the bill back to committee, effectively killing the bill for the year. Please join us in thanking the Democratic Senators for standing up for women, and for abortion rights.

Consumers don't support animal abuse -- but they are being denied accurate information by Big Ag and the US government through a series of laws, including the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act and numerous ag gag bills, designed to suppress and criminalize animal rights activism, making it illegal to even photograph agricultural facilities from public property. The public deserves to know how animals are being raised but Trump wants to keep the truth hidden so that large corporations will continue to pay him millions of dollars. We can't sit silently by while federal laws are protecting animal abuse and preventing the free speech of activists who try to expose the truth. Sign and share the petition asking Congress to end the federal cover up of factory farms.

I am a member of SCCAP, the largest social justice organization on SCU campus. I believe that my professors deserve the right to self-determination. They support me day in and day out, and I would like to show support to them in turn.

Parkhill is a neighborhood with great sidewalks for the walkers, runners, families with children and/or pets that live here. Please help keep the neighborhood safe. Speeding in residential areas must be stopped!
