Mental health issues need more awareness

Amber Boswell, Staff Columnist • October 3, 2018

Mental health is a serious issue that is not taken seriously enough. Over the years, I have watched many people die because they were suffering from some type of mental disorder.

Pop music is becoming more meaningful

Sabrina Snowberger, Staff Columnist • October 1, 2018

Sabrina Snowberger, Staff Columnist • September 24, 2018
