Fashion Forward: Women’s Fashion
Kyle Freese, Reporter
January 26, 2012
I can’t say that I really paid a lot of attention to what women wore until writing this piece. However, walking through the hallways lately, I’ve noticed that girls pay much more attention to how others perceive them than to how comfortable they are and what they enjoy wearing. This doesn’t speak... Read more »
Cafeteria Food

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 »
Masculine Materials

Men’s fashion. When I was first asked to write about this, I honestly did not know where to begin. How do I write an article about a pair of jeans and a t-shirt? I decided the best way to find out about men’s clothing was to head to the manliest place I could go without being thrown out: the barbershop.... Read more »
Freshman Point of View

January 5, 2012
Dear Seniors, we are the freshmen that are apparently ruining your last year in high school. We are not the type of freshmen that are loud and obnoxious. We’re not the immature kids we were in seventh grade. And may God help the seniors that write us off as someone we are not. ... Read more »
Pucker Up in Private

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 »
Friending Your Family

Anytime I hear people in high school say their parents have their Facebook password, I shudder a little bit. The same thing applies when someone is going off about how they won’t let their parents have Facebook. As far as the first situation goes, parents: let your babies leave the nest. If your child...

Holiday Hoopla
Natalie Hiebert, Reporter
November 7, 2011
It is that time of year again. The time of year when Christmas carols pollute the air waves with their holiday cheer and stores deck their halls with boughs of holly and greenery. But all of this pre-holiday mayhem has been the cause of consumer controversy. In the spirit of Charlie Brown, many people... Read more »
Letter to the Editor
October 28, 2011
One of the rudest things someone can do is put words in another person’s mouth and assume that their opinion is a definite way. You cannot, in any way, say that the senior class does not want the freshmen to be a part of Free State. The reality of it is, they are here, they aren’t leaving, why would... Read more »
Bullying, Hazing, Terrorizing…It’s All the Same

“JAMIE IS STUPID, GAY, FAT ANND UGLY. HE MUST DIE!” one post said. Another read, “I wouldn’t care if you died. No one would. So just do it It would make everyone WAY more happier!” Suffering constant bombardment of cruel messages was simply a part of life for 14 year... Read more »
