NEWS | Will Witt’s “Do Not Comply” tour, hos

NEWS | Will Witt’s “Do Not Comply” tour, hosted by Turning Point USA Alabama Tuesday, sparked conversations about personal freedoms and government overreach at the University of Alabama.

The event in Gallalee Hall focused on topics such as free speech, individual liberties and personal responsibility.

Witt, a conservative commentator and author, shared his perspective on what he views as a decline in America’s cultural and social values. His “Do Not Comply” tour promotes his 2023 book of the same name, which outlines why and how the working class should take power back from the “corrupt elite.” The book promotion tour, which launched in September 2023, has visited many universities and high schools across the country.

“We’re living in a society where people lack a sense of meaning,” Witt said. “It’s sad to see so many Americans who no longer feel like they’re part of the country they once knew. It does start in the classroom and what we focus on teaching.”

Editor’s note: Editor-in-Chief Maven Navarro interviewed Beals and emailed Stewart to discuss the reasons for the publication being asked to leave. In addition to the reasons provided above, Beals said that a reason he asked Cortez to leave was because Beals had seen Cortez “multiple times at events with cameras trying to smear speakers.” However, Cortez had never covered a Turning Point event prior to the Do Not Comply tour.

CULTURE | The Kaleidoscope concert series continue

CULTURE | The Kaleidoscope concert series continued at Druid City Music Hall as Evan Honer took the stage Thursday with special guests Eli Winders and Liam St. John for a night filled with American folk and blues-inspired music.

Honer, most known for his cover of Tyler Childers’ deep cut “Jersey Giant,” started his career in southern California as he built a social media following by blending genres such as acoustic folk, indie Americana and alternative pop.

“Jersey Giant is my favorite song,” said Sienna Kasper, a freshman in the crowd. “That’s the song I’m most excited to hear.”

NEWS | The electric scooter-sharing company Veo is

NEWS | The electric scooter-sharing company Veo is about to enter its fourth year on campus, and its mark can be seen on nearly every road and by nearly every building.

With a campus spanning 1,400 acres, getting to class can be a challenge, and The University of Alabama has been trying to find solutions for those unwilling or unable to bike and drive to get around. Traditional public transportation like busing has been around the University for decades, but the Crimson Ride bus system has received criticism for faulty apps, timeliness, overcrowding and labor rights. Many metro transit providers around the country have similarly fallen under fire for inadequate bus systems.

Enter Veo, alongside competitors like Bird and Lime, and its solution to the public transit predicament: micromobility. Instead of relying on huge apparatuses like buses, trains and cars, micromobility centers around smaller devices like scooters and minibikes.

SPORTS | Alabama secured a 52-7 win over Mercer Saturday, giving fans a clearer look at the team’s future playmakers.

Despite being in a scoring drought for the past two games and not making any scoring plays since Alabama’s game against Tennessee on Oct. 19, wide receiver Ryan Williams showed up against the Bears, earning two touchdowns.

“I’ve been challenging him to be a leader,” head coach Kalen DeBoer said. “Obviously, we’re looking at him as a guy who is going to be one of our playmakers. … He just has a maturity that’s well beyond his years.”

SPORTS | Alabama basketball is reaching heights it

SPORTS | Alabama basketball is reaching heights it has never seen before. Yet even with the program’s individual triumphs, leveraging UA football’s success is still a recruiting tactic for head basketball coach Nate Oats when attempting to get players to Tuscaloosa.

With a national powerhouse football team spearheaded by new head coach Kalen DeBoer and backed by legendary former head coach Nick Saban, Oats has used the football team to his advantage when bringing recruits on visits.

The Crimson Tide has hosted several basketball recruits at football games this season, including the No. 1 player in the nation in the class of 2025, 5-star small forward AJ Dybantsa.

Dybantsa was in town for the game against Georgia earlier this season, marking his first official visit to Alabama.

“It was good to watch the Alabama-Georgia game in football. Crazy environment,” Dybantsa said. “And there was a lot of support from Bama fans.”

NEWS | Black students reported receiving anonymous

NEWS | Black students reported receiving anonymous racist text messages last week with language referencing slavery; for some, however, this is not the first encounter with racism at the University, which has not publicly addressed the texts.

While those text messages were part of a larger nationwide trend, Black UA students have encountered racism both before and after the general election last Tuesday.

When freshman marketing major Alyse McCall received these text messages, part of her felt like the messages could be legitimate threats from someone local.

“A lot of the kids here are kind of crazy sometimes when it comes to politics or [when they’re] just out on the street talking about people that are another race or what they represent,” McCall said.

NEWS | For years, Veterans Day at the University of Alabama has come and gone, but this November, the Student Government Association is set to make it memorable.

From Nov. 11-14, the SGA will be on the Quad from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., inviting students to honor veterans through activities like signing a commemorative wall and writing letters to retired service members.

“Salute to Service” is the brainchild of Finley Ryan Richardson, director of the First Year Council. She envisions this not as a one-time event, but as a pledge that the sacrifices of veterans will be recognized and celebrated on campus.
