Dear Readers, Hello, and welcome to issue 11! We’re so happy you’ve decided to stop by once again and check out what’s been going on around campus. I am saddened to say that this is our second-to-last issue of the spring semester.

Dear Readers, Hello, and welcome to issue 10! I hope you all were able to enjoy the sneak peek of warmth and sun we got last week.

Dear Readers, Hello, and welcome back to our regularly scheduled programming. I know we’ve taken on an unusual schedule in the past few weeks due to our breaks and Triangle issue, but we are once again back on track to finish the year out strong.

Dear Readers, Thanks for tuning in again this week! As I’m sure you’re all feeling, the time for what I’ve nicknamed “the February slump” has once again rolled around.
