Democrats, How Did We Lose? What Now?

Estimated Read Time: 9 minutes

Op-Ed by Jenna N. I woke up with heaviness in my stomach today. I knew what had happened before I checked the news. Based on the direction of the electoral votes from last night, it was unlikely that Harris had pulled through. And so here we are. There’s an unfortunate fact in the United States […]

The Disabled Experience at Centre College

Estimated Read Time: 10 minutes

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

The New Housing System: A Recap

Estimated Read Time: 4 minutes

Dear First-Years: Take Initiative by Jenna Nicodemus

Estimated Read Time: 3 minutes

by Jenna Nicodemus (Managing Editor) When I was a first-year, taking initiative seemed daunting. I have always been shy, and I arrived at Centre knowing absolutely nobody.
