From a girl’s perspective, the new dress code regulations are honestly just bothersome. Of course, I understand that sometimes, girls pushed the limits a little too far when it came to what was appropriate for school attire, but the new regulations seem extreme. The concept of the dress code is to... Read more »

The liberation of the shirttail has definitely been one of the highlights of this school year so far. I’ve always thought that the notion of tucking in shirttails for button ups is unnecessary because un-tucked shirttails on button up shirts look just as formal as polo shirts. It also seems that the... Read more »

It is a truly depressing thought that this prestigious school frets over such trivial things like dress code for girls. What’s even more depressing is how it deals with the situation.

More and more teenagers are dating/going out/going steady/whatever we call it nowadays. I guess it’s just not cool to go out with people from your own grade anymore.

What makes a good speech?
Angelina Yick

Most of the election speeches we hear at school have some sort (or a whole lot) of comedy, whether it’s in the topic, in the speaker’s inflection, or both. I admit I like comedy, a lot; heck, that’s why I even vote nowadays, because whoever has the funniest speech wins my attention and my vote. Wait,... Read more »

Apple Inc. has done it again. Once more Steve Jobs has millions of people begging for one of his hot gadgets. At first there was the iMac and iPods, then the iPhone and now the iPad, the much-anticipated touch screen apple net-book that is as thin as a pancake and can run iPhone apps for a day on a...

“Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom…”-Thomas Paine,...

It was a fresh new season and time for the Father Bray game. I practiced hard all summer, memorizing each position enough to do it in my sleep. As I stepped on to the field and heard the crowd cheer, a wave of anxiety rushed through me. But, I reassured myself after seeing my fellow teammates... Read more »
