Review: Night in the Woods is the perfect game to play leading up in to the fall season

(09/14/20 9:58pm)

The fall season is right around the corner and it is never too early to get into the autumn spirit. Night in the Woods is the perfect game to get yourself into the mood for the fall season. It is a beautiful story game with wonderful art, spectacular music, and lovable characters. It tells a relatable story for those in their early twenties who feel a bit lost in the world and are just trying to find their place. However, hiding behind the beautiful facade, darker secrets lie within this town. This article may contain story spoilers in some sections, so read at your own discretion.

Opinion: Trump's disdain for our military is well-documented

(09/10/20 11:06am)

I of course cannot confirm firsthand that the president labeled fallen servicemen as “losers” and “suckers,” as reported by the Atlantic. However, I don't really need to have heard him say any of it to be certain that he holds disdain for our military. There is so much other evidence to support that hypothesis.

Opinion: Teams that could over perform in the 2020 NFL season

(09/07/20 3:08pm)

The 2020 NFL season is set to get underway Thursday, Sept. 10, when the defending Super Bowl Champions, Kansas City, take on the Houston Texans. A full slate of NFL games will follow on Sunday and Monday night, which has me almost drooling. Fans, including myself, have been so starved for football that this Thursday feels like an actual holiday.

Opinion: Netflix streaming "Sister, Sister" may keep some of your anxiety at bay

(09/09/20 9:22pm)

Every new semester brings stress, but this semester brings new meaning to the word stress.  Classes have just begun, but I doubt I’m the only one feeling overwhelmed already. Uncertainty and change are anxiety’s best friends and though we may not be able to kick them to the curb totally, we may be able to find some form of relief.  One such relief is laughter.

Opinion: Incarcerated people are being left out of the COVID-19 conversation

(09/07/20 3:55pm)

The virus is likely coming into the prisons through staff. In a pandemic where we’re all asked to stay inside, inmates don’t have much choice in doing anything but that. Yet they’re suffering the consequence of getting sick from others that are going out and socializing.
