This is the blog of Beth Mendenhall, Collegian opinion writer. I’m a super-senior in political science and philosophy, and have earned a minor in Spanish. I write about a wide range of topics in foreign and domestic government policy, gender studies, and environmentalism. Despite not having ever met me, some students on campus have formed a strong opinion about Beth’s personal politics. This blog is a way for me to connect more with the K-State campus, and insert a little more personal voice into my writing. Feel free to comment, including questions or requests for additional topics. Many have dubbed me a scathing liberal, but this isn’t exactly accurate. Want to know what I think about something? Just ask.
