To My Seniors

On Behalf Of Glenwood

To My Seniors

To Abby, Kelly, & Natalie,

As your time at our Cooperative House comes to an end I just wanted to take the time to publically tell you how appreciated you are. Not just by Glenwood, but by our entire Cooperative System. Each and everyone of you have touched Glenwood in a way that nobody else will ever compare to. And as I sit here in my room clutching simple little items you guys willed to me tonight, I'm overwhelmed with pride and appreciation for my house and for you guys. We can all be consumed by school, stress, boys, whatever, but every now and then we get a night like tonight to remind us to take pride in our home; because there is nowhere else like it.

To Kelly, you are perhaps the sweetest girl I have ever met. Your energy and happiness touches everyone you come in contact with and I know you're gonna make a great wife to Evan. The sign you gave me today because you said I was adventurous touched me more than you know, and I will for sure live up to your expectations.

To Natalie, you are so gentle and patient with everyone. Your positivity radiates off you, and as someone who has struggled as much as you have, that is an extremely admirable trait. Thank you for the Gemini shirt, it makes me sad to think about not seeing you there anymore and knowing that there is always at least one other Glenwood girl around me. I wish you the best of luck in grad school and with your upcoming married life!

And to Abby, I don't know what I'm gonna do without you. I admire you more than you know, your free spirit and wild side will never be replaced again at Glenwood. You can make anyone smile and feel better about themselves. I'm going to miss jamming to punk rock in the shower and knowing you'll always compliment it when you walk in. I know how much you care about Glenwood, and I want to remind you that Glenwood cares about you too. All of you.

Your time at college has come to an end, but your memory never will. On behalf of the remaining Glenwood Girls, we wish you the best of luck and send you out into the world with as much love and luck as possible.

Love,

Reagan

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.
