I’ll admit it: I don’t read hardly as often as I used to. I love reading, and I have loved reading since I was very young. In Kindergarten, I was the only student who could read, so my classmates would ask me to read to them. Of course, I was more than happy to. After dinner, I wasn’t […]

It’s funny how time flies when you’re busy. This week has absolutely flown by for me and I could not be happier that it’s the weekend. At the beginning of the week, I was getting run down and I was stressed and swamped with things to do. I really lucked out on Wednesday because two […]

This semester has only just begun, but it has proven to be a busy one already. It has been difficult for me to adjust to my new schedule, which consists of many more afternoon classes than I have been used to. I prefer taking morning classes, and have actually been done with class by 12:30 […]

Despite all the white that we see outside today, 8:00 this morning marked the beginning of Spring Semester. I’m sure I’m not alone in hoping that it will actually start to look like spring much sooner than later. Walking to class today was quite the haul, no matter how many layers you were wearing.

I know I’ve told you how crazy and hectic my Wednesdays have been this semester… so this may be the first time that you will hear me say I am glad that it’s Wednesday. I’m halfway through the last full week of classes and with every day that passes, I find myself being relieved of […]

As appealing as Winter Break may sound, however, there will be a very stressful two or three weeks before students can get to a relaxing month off. All of my professors have been discussing in class our final […]

Well last week’s trip to St. John Fisher was very successful. I think it was a great learning experience for both newspaper staffs. We basically looked at each others’ papers and picked out things that we liked and that we didn’t like. Hopefully we will both benefit from the visit. I was also really excited […]

When I woke up this morning, I was unaware that my first class would be taking a morning-long field trip to the Buffalo News. So when I walked into my classroom and noticed some unfamiliar faces from a later class, I didn’t know what was going on. With some help from the other students, I […]

Today - Friday, November 9 - was officially the First Annual Medaille College Media Day. The day was filled with informative and interesting sessions that students signed up for to learn more about particular concentrations of media. There were 26 guest speakers who came to Medaille in order to enlighten our students on how to succeed in […]

As a freshman at Medaille, every student is required to read a book entitled Amusing Ourselves To Death, by Neil Postman. This book is basically the focus of your Gen110 class, which is required as part of the core curriculum of the college. Postman argues that technology in general is interfering with direct communication, and cites […]
