    In our first episode of the 2021-2022 school year, Andy, Samad, and Max discuss the ethics behind keeping academia locked behind paywalls. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought a number of financial issues for the university, but why are our JSTOR subscriptions are the first to go ?  Tools that are vital to the education of students, support of staff with research in the works, and just general fairness of access of academia to the public seems like a right, not a privilege. Don't we students, paying to attend a top research university, have the right to access the very works conducted by our university? Or, can we see beyond the present struggles and see this may be a necessary evil to ensure the fiscal stability and long-term health of the UNC system?  Resources:  The Daily Tar Heel report on the cuts: https://www.dailytarheel.com/article/2021/10/opinion-library-budget-cuts Utilitarianism and the long-run fiscal stability: Gary Woller (BYU Professor). “An Overview by Gary Woller.” A Forum on the
