Compliments: Giving and Receiving

Compliments: Giving and Receiving

Opinion by Jaimee Souder, Graphic by Julia Volzke

Recently, a few people have complimented me on different things. My new jacket, my sequined hat, my blue eyes, and my work ethic among other things have received compliments this week. I am not telling you this to brag. I am telling you this because these compliments brightened an otherwise tough week.

Catcalling is Not a Compliment

Catcalling is Not a Compliment

Opinion by Julia Volzke

Hi. My name is Julia Volzke, and I am a 20 year old woman who has been catcalled, or by the politically-correct term street harassed, multiple times in my life. Now, I know that this sounds extreme, but if you had to stand in the shoes that over half the planet has had to, you’d have a problem too. Just walking down the street sometimes can be uncomfortable. I’m the type of girl that does not see if a person is checking me out. I look straight ahead, and I just don’t think about it. I ignore and keep walking because I just don’t want to see it.

Black Friday on Thanksgiving

Black Friday on Thanksgiving

Opinion by Remi Majeski

Every year, around the time Halloween is upon us, we start seeing ads about the supposedly amazing, doorbuster deals the upcoming Black Friday offers. After all, Black Friday is only a month away from Halloween, and even though we’ve grown up with the chaos that comes with it, we need to be reminded well in advance. I started noticing a change in the norm of Black Friday a few years ago, however that only seems to escalate every season, as Black Friday is now beginning on Thanksgiving.
