Michigan’s higher education system is facing mounting warning signs as enrollment declines, financial instability and political controversy continue to cloud the future of colleges and universities across the state. New data released by the state shows only 54.6% of Michigan’s Class of 2025 enrolled in college within six months of graduating high school, down from 56.8% the previous year and far below the 64.7% enrollment rate recorded a decade ago. The decline comes despite

This past week, Wisconsin GOP Gubernatorial Candidate and current U.S. Congressman Tom Tiffany made a comment surrounding college graduates and AI stating, “Find a job that AI can’t replace.” The comment, first reported by TMZ, came when Tiffany was asked for a message to college graduates and their job opportunities after college in the new age of evolving AI. Tiffany added on, “There are gonna be a lot of jobs that are gonna be in high demand,” Tiffany said. “And make sure

Georgia gubernatorial contender Keisha Lance Bottoms says she would have rejected legislation blocking biological men from taking part in women’s sports if she had been governor. “I don’t believe the government should be deciding who gets to participate in athletics,” Bottoms told voters during a Democratic primary debate held before she secured her party’s nomination. The moderator cut in and restated the question: “So, you would have vetoed it?” The former Atlanta mayor rep

“The world needs voices like Matt’s,” said Lohemeier’s wife Sarah. Matt Lohmeier was a rising officer in the U.S. Space Force when he stepped into a fight most in uniform avoid. He could have kept his head down, finished his command tour, and moved quietly toward a full military pension without drawing attention to himself or the system around him. Instead, he chose to raise concerns about the growing politicization of military training and culture—specifically the rise of Ma

A bipartisan plan aims to hold tech companies accountable for child safety failures and censorship of conservative voices. A group of U.S. lawmakers from both parties has introduced legislation that would dismantle one of Big Tech’s most powerful legal shields. Just before Christmas 2025, senators including Lindsey Graham, Dick Durbin, Josh Hawley, Amy Klobuchar, Marsha Blackburn, and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody unveiled a bill that would sunset Section 230 of the C

New research spotlights concerns over rising antisemitism linked to diversity offices at U.S. universities. A growing climate of hostility toward Israel—and, increasingly, toward Jewish students—has become entrenched in many American universities, with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) staff at the center of the controversy. A new study from the Heritage Foundation has found that DEI officials across the country routinely single out Israel for criticism while largely av

“A prosperous society parties more. A sad, lonely society parties less,” said former Presidential candidate and Forward Party Founder Andrew Yang. There was a time in the not-so-distant past when partying did not feel like a luxury experience. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics’ American Time Use Survey , Americans today spend dramatically less time attending or hosting social gatherings than they did two decades ago. The drop is especially steep among young peo

“Parents who grew up gaming are still playing, and many are introducing their kids to video games as early as age five, while rising accessibility across screens and platforms allows people to play in more moments," said Giorgo Paizanis. The U.S. video game industry is not just big—it has become indispensable. According to the Entertainment Software Association’s 2024 Economic Impact Report , the industry generated more than $101.3 billion in total economic impact in 2023, c

GasBuddy’s outlook attributes the decline to higher refinery output and moderating demand. The national average price of regular gasoline is projected to fall below $3 per gallon in 2026 for the first time since 2020, according to the GasBuddy 2026 Fuel Price Outlook released this week. The forecast estimates a yearly average of $2.97 per gallon, down about 13 cents from the 2025 average of $3.10, and marks the fourth straight annual decline in average pump prices. GasBuddy

“As President Trump’s energy dominance vision continues to come to fruition, energy prices will fall further—igniting other price declines,” reads a recent DOI statement. After years of volatility at the pump, U.S. gas prices in late 2025 have fallen to their lowest December average levels since 2020. According to the most recent data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline was $2.895 as of mid-Dece

The publication of a guidance piece linking cousin marriage to stronger family bonds and economic stability has drawn fierce criticism—and was later pulled. A recently published guidance by the NHS’s Genomics Education Programme claimed that first-cousin marriages may deliver “stronger extended family support systems” and “economic advantages (resources, property and inheritance can be consolidated rather than diluted across households).” The document, titled “Should the UK

As Miami heads toward its December mayoral runoff, a once-technical zoning concept — the Rapid Transit Zone (RTZ) — has emerged as a defining fault line between candidates. The RTZ places land near rail stations under county zoning control, often allowing significantly taller and denser construction than surrounding neighborhoods. With transit corridors reshaping Miami’s skyline, the question of who benefits most — residents or developers — has become central to the race. No
