OPINION: Injustice on Death Row: The Imminent Ex*****on of Marcellus Williams

Marcellus Williams, a 55-year-old Black man, is currently facing the death sentence in Missouri despite no physical evidence connecting him to the crime. He was convicted of first degree murder, robbery and burglary of a white American journalist, Felicia Gayle. Now, he has been serving time in prison since 2001 and is expected to be executed Tuesday at 6 p.m. central time.

The NAACP allows protestors to sign a letter in its name in support of halting the ex*****on of Marcellus Williams. Those interested can also go to the Innocence Project website and call Governor Parson of Missouri at (417)-373-3400, using the call script they’ve provided.

SPORTS: Balancing time between school, sports and work

Life for student-athletes can be challenging. Waking up up at 5:30 a.m. to go to practice followed by three classes in succession can be physically and mentally exhausting.

Student-athletes devoting their time to playing a sport that they love while trying to study, do homework and complete projects can be difficult. Managing these obligations requires excellent time management skills.

In preparation for the football game on Sept. 16, SGA Vice President Juan Adames Jr. announced at the Sept. 10 SGA forum that Salisbury University would be attempting to bring back the student section. Attendees were told to spread the word of the "gold out" and encourage students to pack the stands.

Signs could be found around campus advertising for the football game and student section theme. In light of the University's ban on tailgating, a pre-game kick off party was offered instead.
