Now, my dad and I are getting the trailer ready to bring Silver to fair. The…

In a topic that is widely discussed on campus and seems like a no brainer to many has had a bunch of people working, wondering, and wishing. From 1897 to 1986 Wichita State University played competitive football at many different levels including the KCAC, CIAC, and our current conference of the Missouri Valley. Boasting a 375-402-47 record and 14 conference titles the Shockers were at best a sub-par team. Over history the Shocker football team endured some tough times and none were more…

As soon as my mom arrived we helped him to his feet and to the trailer. “I called Oak Ridge, they have a spot ready for him, we need to hurry.” We arrived at the equine hospital and eased him into the large metal building. The helplessness in his eyes had turned to fear. “He was laying down when we got to the barn this morning and he wasn’t acting normal,” She said as she struggled to keep Jazz calm. Knowing what it meant when horses laid down we knew something was definitely wrong. Hours…

For the first 12 years of my life, I have dealt with loss of friends and relatives through death. However the loss of my dog sargent was much more dreadful. Not only did I lose my dog Sargent, I also lost a close family member. He was much more than any ordinary dog, he was and still is family. I will remember him forever. Going back to before I was born, my parents got a puppy and they named him Sargent. Sargent was a sheltie, he had thick white and brown fur.Later on after they got Sargent…

Justice for the 96 A cliché often heard in history classes is that “history is written by the victors.” This notion that the truth behind historical events is influenced by those left to record them is one that is emphasized on events in the more distant past. Events that occurred more recently are less often given this scrutiny, and many times the first version of the truth, the “winner’s” version, becomes widely accepted. Furthermore, because this truth is distributed by people in positions of…

I was going to change the world. That was the goal I set out upon when starting out my action project. I knew that it was supposed to be a small project, but I thought I could change Missoula in just fifteen hours. After numerous attempts to get in contact with organizations that could have a broad, long term impact on the community, I decided to simply pick up trash from a local park. This job wasn 't glamorous or exciting and it wasn 't going to change the way people looked at recycling and…

or bad lighting. The new thing in professional football is new stadiums with lots of great technology to replace the old, tattered ones. Now these new stadiums make fans feel really special. The…

A Summer to Die Molly and Meg Chalmers are very different. Molly is the type of person who is the popular girl at school, has multiple boyfriends, and is known for her beauty and laughter. She takes pride in the little things in life, just like her mother. On the other side, Meg is a very awkward kind of girl, instead of living in a fantasy world like her sister, she pays attention to the logic of everything, like her father. They believe that if they get excited about the little things, then…

This week at the Animal Hospital was interesting. On Monday, I held a dog’s leg down in a ultrasound. Her name was Lola. We were trying to figure out what was wrong inside her abdomen. Luckily, Lola was behaving. It was cute when she fell asleep during the ultrasound. Unfortunately, she has a large mass and tiny gallstones in her abdomen. When the ultrasound technician touched where the mass was, Lola would struggle. Her doctor put her surgery next week. We hope for the best. It was slow on…

I am overcome by the memories of coming to the ballpark as a kid. I take my lap around the entire stadium. It is very dimly lit in the tunnel around the field. Thousands of people are flying by. As they pass it seems everyone has something different. I see an ice cream sundae, that was made in a baseball helmet. There is so much ice cream, an enormous…
