Students should prioritize their mental health

Written By Brooke Stephens, Opinions Editor • December 7, 2022

It’s the end of the semester, and I think we are all waiting for it to come to a close. If you are metaphorically skipping gleefully to the end of the semester: You have made it.

Fast fashion advertisements on Instagram are often scams

Written By Carson Folio, Staff Writer • December 7, 2022

Wanting to be fashionable but also price-conscious has been the story of my life, even more so after becoming a college student.

Written By Brooke Stephens, Opinions Editor • November 30, 2022

Generation Z, for those who do not know yet, is the generation that comes after Millennials. The age range in 2022 typically falls from 18-25, but in some circles, the generation could arguably span a few more years in either direction. The post-millennial generation has gained increasing representation in the public eye, largely for pushing the right to vote and basic human rights.
