by Adam West and Hadley O’Bryan I have heard the wind for some time now, at least 4 hours. I’m waiting for my class to start, hoping that the tempest outside will calm. The shutters jump in fear, as do I. I plug in my devices, hoping the power doesn’t go out. I get news…

by The Student Association for Social Justice and Equity (SASJE) Disabled students at Centre College struggle to be heard.

by Noah Calhoun One of the most visible locations on Centre’s campus over the last few semesters has been the under-construction, now open Champions Hall, previously referred to as the IWAE by students and faculty alike.

by Aelwen Iredale, Hallie Gleeson, and Noah Calhoun On April 8th, a normally boring Monday became exciting. Through our 9:10 classes, we remained on edge and kept glancing at the clock. We were itching to leave for the experience of a lifetime—a total solar eclipse. The moment the clock hit 10:10, we raced from our…
