Senior Letters: Part 3
LaDonna Scott

Dear Maggie,

I first met you during 'Grease'. I honestly have no idea if you remember this, but we were waiting to audition, and I said I wanted Dunkin' Donuts so you offered to go with me. Being the scared baby freshman I was, I denied you request because I was afraid I wouldn't get back on time. Through the last three years, I have come to appreciate your talent and passion for human rights. I love the fact that we have connected so much this year, enough for you to go through your dorm plans with me. Thank you for the memories darling!

Dear Emma,

Firstly, you never cease to amaze me with the fact that you can play the piano backwards. You are an actual adventure fairy that can manage to climb trees in heels. I would like to thank you for being my friend during Grease and teaching me music that I missed, because I was definitely a soprano before my voice dropped. Thank you for being an elf with me my sophomore year and continuing to make me feel welcome in this program. I appreciate you with all my heart because your friendship is something I will never forget.

Dear Shelby,

I greatly appreciate the fact that Katelyn and you are able to talk to me about 'Teen Wolf'. I envy your outfits greatly because I am amazed as to how seamlessly put together they are. You also happen to be one of the kindest people that I know. I hope that your beautiful soul never changed because it is, by far, one of your best qualities that never fail to make me smile.

Dear Drew,

I met you my freshman year during 'Grease', just like everyone else in this post. I distinctly remember finding it incredibly interesting that you remembered so many digits of pi. You are so smart and incredibly caring. I have no idea what I would do if I couldn't hug you or rant to you about my day and everything that is happening in my life. Thank you for listening to me and tolerating my craziness. Thank you for being there whenever I need you and talking about politics with me at the most random times. I appreciate you accepting me for who I am, regardless how strange or random I can be. Thank you for being you.

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.
