QUINTIN JAMES Assistant Sports Editor Going to school five minutes south of Lake Erie has it perks for sure. The water is beautiful in the summer and there are plenty of beaches to play and lay on. In the winter, though, these perks turn into problems. Winter means snow,......

Ever since I was little, I have always loved books. As embarrassing as it may sound, until about the fourth grade, I couldn’t fall asleep without being read to. When I was younger, books offered an imaginative escape into places I couldn’t physically experience. I loved challenging my mind and......

“How did you even find Fredonia?” This is a question a lot of people ask me. Being an international student from Hong Kong one might think the chances of me finding Fredonia is slim to none. I first came to Fredonia because of the co-op engineering program. Even if......

Ever since my freshman year of college, one of my biggest goals was to study abroad at least once during my time here at Fredonia. Later on, I heard about the Arts of Italy trip through friends that previously went and through professor Peter Tucker. I became more and more......

Sometimes it gets discouraging and disheartening when you realize how much meat dominates the food industry, and you get a little tired of seeing it advertised and glorified everywhere, but there’s hope. Even if you’re not a vegetarian, there’s probably a pretty good chance that somebody you know or somebody......

Help yourself It’s that time of year again. It’s the middle of the semester, professors are assigning projects left and right and students are mixing their coffee with 5-Hour Energy in an attempt to get all of their work done. As someone who has struggled with severe anxiety and panic......

Gaming is something like a double-edged sword. It can be a great way to relieve stress, but it can also become the most stress-inducing part of your day. Being on the receiving end of a virtual ass-whooping can be demoralizing, especially when that person has some undesirable traits,......

Swirls of sherbet ice-cream colored clouds lazily glide over a baby-blue sky and the world seems to be basking in a warm, golden light. The lake is bathwater warm and completely still, reflecting the beauty above it. I was recently asked to describe one of my favorite memories during an......
