I heart organ donation. Get it?
Gwendolyn Sobkowiak | staff writer There are two things that I can distinctly remember about the day that I got my driver’s license. One, that no one told me I was allowed to smile for the picture, which provided me with a flattering, but ultimately unhappy portrait to carry in my pocket, and two, that… Continue reading I heart organ donation. Get it?
Surgery was hard, ‘butt’ I’m learning to sit with my emotions
Josh Imhof | news editor As I slowly came back to consciousness, the dim lights of my hospital room gently filled my heavy eyelids. In front of me, figures moved in a blurry haze. To my left, a blue shadow fumbled with something above my head. My senses began to adjust, and I realized it… Continue reading Surgery was hard, ‘butt’ I’m learning to sit with my emotions
Politicians, bring back the thoughts and prayers
Charlotte Shields-Rossi | a&e editor Who wins when a baby dies? Well, it depends on how the baby died of course. Last month, more than 200 miles away in Lancaster County, an Amish family’s infant died. This sparked a heated debate about the cause of death. Did the baby die from measles? Or with measles?… Continue reading Politicians, bring back the thoughts and prayers

Imhof: Despite winning season, Pirates still lose
Josh Imhof | news editor As I stood on the shores of Point State Park on May 29, I anxiously waited for the Pirates post–game drone show to begin. I had never seen one before, and had enormous expectations. Typically, I would be at the game, but tickets for this one were expensive. Not only… Continue reading Imhof: Despite winning season, Pirates still lose

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” In case you’re unaware, this is the First Amendment of… Continue reading Staff Editorial: Trump opposes First Amendment by banning press from White House
Fries: Sweeney’s ad receives justified backlash
Noah Fries | sports editor We live in a world where everything is online. It’s a different world than our parents grew up in and a completely different world than what our grandparents grew up in. In this digital era, social media allows for content to reach thousands, if not millions, of eyes in a… Continue reading Fries: Sweeney’s ad receives justified backlash
Staff Editorial: Parental leave policy may spark change
We have heard it said time and time again — the United States has a terrible work-life balance culture. Most corporate employees slave away from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., leaving ample room for burnout and none for a social life or hobbies. In May, the Allegheny County Health Department introduced a new parental leave… Continue reading Staff Editorial: Parental leave policy may spark change
A reflection on swimsuits
Gwendolyn Sobkowiak | staff writer As summer dwindled away before my eyes, I took a visit to Moraine State Park for a final dip in the lake this past weekend. I’ve always hated the feeling of a swimsuit. There’s something about the stretchy material that makes me feel like a porcupine wearing lycra. Yes, it’s… Continue reading A reflection on swimsuits
Huzzah! The Renaissance Festival is worth it
Lily Debiak | staff writer Ribbons, swords and fire each seem mild mannered on their own, but put them together, and suddenly you’re face to face with the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival in West Newton. The event, which goes from Aug. 29 to Oct. 4, is the landmark for all things unique and intriguing with their… Continue reading Huzzah! The Renaissance Festival is worth it

Naomi’s Nook: The community of the classroom
Naomi girson | opinions editor I went to one of those high schools where everyone knew everyone. The graduating classes were small, the classrooms even smaller. I had chemistry, biology and psychology with the same people year after year. I got really used to going to a school where ice breakers were only for the… Continue reading Naomi’s Nook: The community of the classroom
Is my sad playlist the problem?
Sydney Hackenberg | staff writer If you look at my Spotify Wrapped from the last couple of years, you would see Phoebe Bridgers and Billie Eilish at the top of my charts. However, there is an important distinction I should make about Eilish’s music: I’m referring to “Halley’s Comet” and “Happier Than Ever,” not “You… Continue reading Is my sad playlist the problem?
Staff Editorial: Food options have changed, for better…or for worse?
When students arrived back on campus it was hard not to notice the changes to the dining situation at Duquesne University. In Brottier Hall, a new bubble tea and dessert shop — Yo! Brew — opened up. Students with a meal plan noticed that Hogan not only got a face lift but also got late… Continue reading Staff Editorial: Food options have changed, for better…or for worse?
Grieving thousands of miles away from home
Diva KC | layout editor I spent much of my childhood in Kathmandu, Nepal. I distinctly remember the streets of my neighborhood, the friendly faces of my neighbors as they watched me run by and the hum of conversation in the air. Since I was 10 years old, New York City has more or less… Continue reading Grieving thousands of miles away from home
