Untying the strings: Lucy Watson and Bryant Apolonio
Bryant Apolonio and Lucy Watson ride a rollercoaster
A means to an end: Xiaoran Shi
Within these pages, death speaks in myriad voices: a female vigilante wearing the armour of a Roman goddess seeks retributive justice on page 7, a deeply personal account of euthanasia makes a compelling case for legalising assisted suicide on page 10, a visit to Graceland reveals how death has not hindered the evolution of an […]
A statement from the 2013 Editors of Honi Soit on the USU Board’s plan to expel Tom Raue
A few weeks ago, we published an article about collaboration between police and the University at this year’s strikes. That article included a sentence from a confidential USU report. The sentence was something a USU staff member recalled a police officer saying. It was leaked to us by Tom Raue, the USU’s Vice President. As […]
The art of listening: Mariana Podesta-Diverio
As easy it is to become apathetic about the current state of Australian politics and give up altogether, your vote will help lessen the possibility of an Abbott-led government. Use it wisely.

The death of conviction politics: Avani Dias
Avani Dias explores the death of conviction politics in the lead up to the federal election.
It’s personal: Hannah Ryan
Being political isn’t just about standing on a picket. This week’s Honi tells personal stories, reveals cultural structures, lifts veils and opens windows, exposing the private, and encourages you to live in defiance of the cultural authoritarianism we are all subject to but largely blind to.

Why patriarchy is not enough (as a conceptual framework): Mariana Podesta-Diverio

Editorial
Student politicians tend to promise much and deliver little.
Night-time economy must deliver the goods
Young Sydneysiders want good music and great times when we go out – give that to us or we will make it happen ourselves.
LifeChoices must be given the benefit of the doubt
Libertarianism is a double-edged sword – conservative voices are heard on campus: to decry their right to exist is to deny the liberty that dissidents are trying to defend.
