We’ve made it this far, but how did we do it?
Well, here we are, the last issue of the semester. We can hardly believe we’ve made it this far. It’s been such a strange time to be students, and an even stranger time to be editors of the paper.

Photo credit: Gracen Hoyle
Regardless where you personally lie on the political spectrum, I think we can all agree that the gap between the left and right is incredibly large.

And that's what...

Disclaimer: This is a recipe that I have never made myself, but I have observed the process many times. My job was to taste test and provide feedback while the recipe was being perfected over several soup seasons. What is great about a soup is that you get to throw in your ingredients and walk away for a while. It...

Many of the music department’s ensembles are not holding one due to both the volume of members required to successfully hold an in-person Christmas concert and the logistical and technological challenges accompanying virtual synchronization.
