During lunch, all around me, kids are walking around with cafeteria trays loaded with pizza, tater tots, sherbet, etc. and I can’t help thinking to myself, is this healthy? From what I’ve seen, Free State students prefer to buy their lunches instead of bringing them to school. Don’t... Read more »

I caused quite a bit of confusion on Jan 6. after making my Facebook status: “If you get arrested within the next four hours you might see me.” To clarify: No, I did not get arrested, I watched others get arrested on a ride-along with the Lawrence Kansas Police Department.

Whoever engages in public displays of affection in the hallways at Free State needs to stop immediately. I don’t want to see a girl and “her boo” sucking one another’s face while I am trying to get to my Spanish III class. I’m only a sophomore; however, I can already tell that my years... Read more »
