Dylon Harrison Managing Editor We all know that businesses around the world are being hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. The theater industry has not been immune to this. Theaters all over the country were forced to shut down at the beginning of the pandemic, resulting in losses of income […]
Logan Ramsey News Editor Throughout all the chaos, fear and fury the historic events of 2020 have incited, I’ve observed a widening gap between the United States population. This isn’t the chasm that exists between our two major political parties, but the way the year has affected each of our […]

Dylon Harrison Interim Editor-in-Chief It seems that lately, you can’t go a day without hearing about the fires raging in Australia. So much of Australia has burned that the country is beginning to resemble an ISU owned housing complex. These fires highlight some major issues that we as humanity desperately […]
Logan Ramsey News Editor Back in October, I wrote a column where I said that it was too soon to talk about removing President Trump from office because we weren’t in that stage of the impeachment process yet. That was when Adam Schiff was still conducting closed-door testimonies in the […]
