Long before “fake news” and “alternative facts” became topics of national discussion and face-palming, the linguistic theorist and social critic Noam Chomsky was offering up in-depth reflections on the way power-systems manufacture consent, creating necessary illusions to distract citizens from systemic inequalities and injustices.

Sat. March 18 the Fort Lewis College Softball team faced the Regis University Rangers in a double header in Aztec, NM. The field at FLC is under renovations therefore the team is playing in Aztec for this season. The first game was close, but ended in a loss for the Skyhawks with a final score of 1-2.  The second game FLC came back for revenge and won with a final score of 9-2.

As you may know, there has been an ongoing debate regarding the identity of Fort Lewis College. Should it be deemed a liberal arts college or a college that provides a “liberal education” to its students?

FLC was looking to get back in the win column after a loss in their last game against Lindenwood University. They beat Oklahoma Baptist University today at home 16-4.
