View health as a priority this year

Karena Ozier, Columnist January 14, 2019

On average, the typical person visits the doctor four times in a year. I am not the average person. I couldn’t tell you the last time I visited the doctor because it has been so long—until recently. I...

Reach out to family, friends when possible

Logan Raschke, News Editor January 14, 2019

Cheers to the start of a new semester

Megan Keane, Columnist January 9, 2019

Welcome back, Panthers! I hope everybody’s first week back wasn’t too stressful. I wouldn’t describe mine as profusely stressful, per se. I also wouldn’t describe it as exactly overwhelming, but...

Don’t judge people for their sex lives

Corryn Brock, Associate News Editor January 9, 2019

I believe the way we view sexuality in this country needs reform, especially in terms of women’s sexuality. In high school I dated a guy that, when it came out we had fooled around, I was immediately...

Be an empathetic driver; watch the road rage

Karena Ozier, Columnist January 8, 2019

The light changes from red to green. The third car in front of you sits there for too long, indicating that they are distracted. Someone in front of you honks their horn to make them aware that they need...

Find your balance of routine, spontaneity

Natalee Reynolds, Columnist January 8, 2019
