Overzealously Aesthetic
Speaking of reading too much into something, I thought I would share a controversial but highly acclaimed column from The Alligator this Tuesday. People can't seem to get enough... IMPACTING...

Money quotes:
"Art may come in many forms, including the varicolored accounts of garrulous historians who can portray movement through time."
"Accordingly, we have seen why art can be inherently political. Perhaps we should be more interested with the converse statement: Politics is inherently artistic."
"I wonder if this means, despite our disagreements, we should appreciate each other's art at a high abstract level. We should retain our ability to condemn and to properly judge, but also to understand we may seek the same ends."

I'm overzealously endorsing this column as the best thing the alligator published all year.
