What UW-L Odyssey Members Are Thankful For

Here at University of Wisconsin - La Crosse, we have a lot to be thankful for. So this Thanksgiving, the UW-L Odyssey staff decided to do something a bit different. We all got together and made a list of what we are each thankful for or what we love about Wisconsin. Check it out now!

Sarah Daentl - The Weather

"Well what I love about living in Wisconsin is the weather. You get all four season and what other state can say they went from 70 degrees to 40 within a day? Not many. I am also thankful for the community feeling/caring people across the state. I feel like we are pretty united especially when it comes to our love for the Packers, beer, cheese, agriculture, and wildlife."

Miranda Martin - Milwaukee

"I'm thankful to be from Wisconsin because Milwaukee is in WI and no place beats MKE! Thankful for the rave, Summerfest, restaurants, Red Arrow park, and the art museum!"

Mary Purdy - Family

"I am thankful that I can spend Thanksgiving with my Family. On Thanksgiving, it is a tradition to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade and play games. Prior to Thanksgiving Day, UW-L hosted a Turkey Trot that my sister and I participated in, which got us in the holiday spirit. While it was a cold, chilly Wisconsin fall day, it was an enjoyable experience."

Megan Graham - Coffee

"Here in La Crosse specifically, I am thankful for the abundance of coffee shops. Coffee addicts are welcomed and encouraged in LAX, which makes me thankful because coffee is a holy beverage that we college kids depend on for survival. The coffee shops here are so unique and cute and there is always somewhere new to check out."

Serena Elizabeth Cadena - Green Bay Packers

"I'm thankful for our Green Bay Packers, although they haven't had the best season. But regardless, I will still support them."

Ally Anderson - The scenery

"I'm so thankful that I get to call such a beautiful state my home, especially with having the bluffs in La Crosse. It's so amazing to see just how fast the seasons change and it's all so beautiful. From the leaves in fall, the snow in winter, all the flowers in summer, and, who doesn't love a great lake in the summer?"

Here at UW-L we have so much to be thankful for, our beautiful state, our great teams, and the amazing opportunity we have to work for Odyssey. Check out the links to all of our contributing creators to see what they have done, and be sure to give them a follow as well so you never miss an update!

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.
