Kansas State Students Have A Lot To Look Forward To With Sports This Upcoming Year
Bailey Short

With summer quickly approaching why not already start looking into the next school year? I mean we all know summer is going to fly by and might as well have something to look forward to, right? Now if you are not a huge sports fan this article will probably not appeal to you at all and I am not really sure what you should be excited about when summer is ending, but for those of you sports lovers like me here are some things to look forward to.

Football season. That is all there is to say (I am going to say more but just go with it). Even if you are not a sports fan most people look forward to football season. In my opinion, it is by far the best season of the year. There are many reasons to be excited for football season such as tailgating, seeing and hanging out with friends that you have not seen all summer, and finally getting to cheer on the Cats again.

This year, however, there is a little extra something to look forward to (at least in my opinion there is). The Cats went 8-5 last year and won their bowl game. With many returning starters, look for another competitive season, and hopefully an even better one than last year. Big 12 Championship run??

Now we all know football season will fly by just about as fast as summer flew by, but no worries we still have more to look forward to. Kansas State basketball. While this is not usually something K-State fans really look forward to, this year is quite different.

The Cats finished the 2017-2018 season with an NCAA Tournament run to the Elite Eight. Did I mention we have every starter back? The Cats preseason rankings for next season on six different sites are: 10 by NBC Sports, 12 by CBS Sports, 12 by USA Today, 13 by The Athletic, 13 by Yahoo, and ESPN just recently revised theirs and pushed us up to 12. The Cats will likely be one of the biggest threats to KU losing their Big 12 Championship streak.

Are we looking at another year like 2012-2013? Maybe, at least I sure hope so. Students in my opinion should be getting excited for this next school year.

Kickoff may still be 129 days away, but it is never too early to be excited for football season. Before we know it it will be basketball season, so lets get ready to pack the Bill this fall and Bramlage this winter, oh and always remember Cats by 90.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
