History Department’s exciting year. I don’t normally like to turn my back on people, but I wanted to model the History Student Association’s new t-shirt. Not only do I like the shirt, I believe that our students came up with a wonderful way of describing what it is that we as historians do and are. We are scholars who are “in-betweeners.” “Our minds are in the past, our bodies in the present, and our aspirations in the future.” “Our minds are in the past.” But our past is infinitely large,…

Over the years, chaos has become my calm. Silence has become unsettling; silence usually means that mischief is afoot. This is all thanks to my cousin Kayla. Kayla was diagnosed with autism when she was two years old, after my aunt and uncle noted that Kayla wasn't developing the way an average two-year-old does. She didn't talk, avoided eye contact, and preferred to spend her time playing with silverware rather than her sisters. Our family was devastated when we got the news that she was…

was just a hypothetical thought before the War but soon it became reality. The surface temperature of Earth lowered drastically and the agriculture suffered globally. The future of the humanity seemed quite grim. The Great War began when I was 17 years old.…

change the course of his future? This unlikely hero risks it all to save these women, confront the forces that oppose him and ultimately discover the life he was meant to live. “Part of the DNA of For KING & COUNTRY is this idea of respect and honor in relationships and women being priceless,” Joel says. “What we’ve both found in our beliefs as men is that people are made equal. No one is a commodity and everyone deserves to be loved and loved well.” (Totey, 2016). Not only does the film cover…

2016 I went to Winter Park, Colorado. That was the first time I had ever snowboarded. I had skied as a kid but I always wanted to snowboard. For Spring Break, my 19 year old brother put together a group to go skiing and snowboarding. The Friday night after everyone was out of school and off work, we went on our way to Winter Park. My best friend, Jade, got to come on the trip as well and we learned to snowboard together. We had to tell ourselves to be open-minded and don’t expect it to come…

morals that I still live by. I was always told to value the family and friends I have. They have all left lasting impressions on me as I grew. I also live by my faith and let God show me the way. Most importantly, I was taught to never give up on my dreams and constantly fight for what I want and live my life. I live by what I think is right and what I have grown up to know. I live my own life in the way I want to live that makes me happy to be who I am. Many of the values I live by come…

often learn more things outside of school without realizing it. Learning plays a pivotal role in our lives. Benjamin Franklin once said, “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” The question we should ask ourselves is whether or not our education system in America really succeeds in its purpose. I believe it does not. While it focuses around important subjects we need to learn in our lives, it fails in its purpose to teach students that very information. Often enough, students fall…

Theme song I remember when my football coach showed me Don't Blink for the first time around 10-11 years old. At the time I was thinking it was a good song, but as the years start passing by the song started hitting me in personal ways. Life flashes right in front of you and it's like you don't even realize it until everything is gone. Life shouldn't be taken for granted, and should be fulfilled with everything you have ever wanted. Listening to “Don't blink” by Kenny Chesney has changed my life…

colleges and universities would become solely funded from government taxes. And with the united states already being roughly $18 trillion dollars in debt as it stand the outlook doesn’t look bright. It’s been drilled into our heads since we were children, go to college and live a better life. However since 1970 the cost of going to college has grown more than 13-fold. Now we’re seeing students struggling…
