Most campus regulations outlaw gun ...

Neoliberalism is both an economic and political ideology which proposes a new way in which states are restricted from interfering with the economic affairs and general day to day dealings of their private citizens.

The theme of sacrifice and patriotism is often covered in poetry; the idea of dying for one's country is a supremely romantic ideal. However, this idea can be expressed in many different ways. Ostensibly, the story of both Rupert Brooke's "The Soldier" and Thomas Hardy's "Drummer Hodge" is quite the same; a dying soldier's legacy is described and contemplated during or after dying behind enemy lines.

While "The Soldier" gives a personal account of the pride one feels about dying for their ...
