…In November 2015, while other students were focusing on midterms, football games and the fast-approaching Michigan winter, then-LSA senior Zachary Ackerman had something else on his mind. He was running for Ann Arbor City Council. “I grew up in Ann Arbor and grew up as a pretty nerdy kid. When I was 15 and a student at Pioneer High School, that nerdiness channeled itself into an interest in politics and government. Figuring...…

…A thought popped into my head as I walked out of Hill Auditorium after a live Q&A with a politician I deeply respect, Hillary Clinton. I realized that, to my recollection, Clinton didn’t mention a single word about the mistakes her campaign made in 2016. To be sure, Russian interference, voter suppression and former FBI director Jim Comey’s statements had an enormous impact on the ultimate outcom...…

…When Sarasota, a town in southwestern Florida, was rated America’s meanest city in 2006, Karan Higdon was just a nine-year-old kid who wore size nine-and-a-half shoes. He was a big kid, no doubt, who went to the Boys and Girls Club most days after school and sometimes met his friends for kickball outside in the neighborhood. He played Pee Wee football for the Port Charlotte Bandits, and even back then he was running over ...…

He may have jumpstarted the Wolverines’ struggling offense last Saturday, but he needs to show that he can have that much of an impact on a regular basis. Peters will have his work cut out for him in a matchup against the Golden Gophers’ 20th-ranked defense. In eight games, Minnesota has given up just eight touchdowns through the air. It has also ...…
