UNLV quarterback Matthew Sluka quit his undefeated team on Tuesday, claiming undisclosed "commitments" to him weren't fulfilled in what could be first midseason pay dispute in college football history. Sluka enrolled at UNLV this year after four solid seasons at Holy Cross, which competes at the secondary level of college football. By quitting UNLV (3-0) before playing in his fourth game, Sluka preserves that year of eligibility and could play elsewhere in 2025. "I have decided to utilize my redshirt year and will not be playing in any additional games this season," Sluka wrote on Instagram Tuesday. UNLV is also at the heart of fast-moving conference affiliation shifts with schools playing musical chairs and changing leagues to chase maximum TV profits.

So she and Maggie had focused their hopes on getting a private scholarship. She considered paying $700 for an online class, heavily promoted on Facebook, that promised to show parents how to find college scholarships. Every year, hundreds of thousands of students like Maggie devote countless hours to the hunt for private scholarships to pay for college. AdvertisementWith the combination of institutional aid and private scholarship she received, Maggie managed to cut her original college bill from $15,000 to $8,000.

When Vice President Kamala Harris took the reins of the Democratic nomination in late July, something happened in North Carolina. Part of the Harris campaign strategy in North Carolina, according to a campaign official, includes attempting to bulk up turnout not just among Black voters but among women in and around the suburbs. For the week after Harris became the presumptive nominee, there was a 61.5% increase in voter registration among North Carolina women. Bonier takes all of this to point to a higher turnout of Democratic voters in North Carolina. “The way you win statewide in North Carolina,” he said, “is you win on the margins.”

I felt a tremendous sense of guilt when my mother unexpectedly died on Christmas Eve in 2004 at the young age of 48. I think some of it stems from the guilt I've felt over her death. "But it's not a given that if your mom or dad died young, you're definitely going to die young." "Guilt is there because our culture does not provide children, especially young ones, with the reason why their parents died," she explains. Soon, she says, I will begin to realize that just because my mother died young doesn't mean I will, too.
