It’s difficult to conceptualize a solution to propaganda on social media. However, what we can do is check the source of the media we consume. Is this a 35-year-old filming commentary in their mom’s basement or an article from The Wall Street Journal?

If you’re a part of the 45% of students in the College of Arts and Sciences, you’re all too familiar with credits for CAEs — Creative Arts Experiences. They’re intended to help students become engaged in art, music, theater, film and literature on campus. For some reason, All-University Sing and Pigskin Revue don’t fall under this category, even though there are hundreds of participants every year — from Sing chairs and stagehands to sororities and fraternities.

There is a lot of pressure to know what you want to do and who you want to be in college. Any student can probably attest that they’ve been asked, “What do you want to do?” many times. The truth is that coming into college, the majority of people — even those who have everything planned out — change what they want to do in the future. Coming out of high school with limited knowledge and experience of the different topics and programs, students often take more time and in-depth classes to explore their interests.

As college students, there is pressure to base your future on the career of your choice. While it may sound cliche, a more fulfilling way to navigate the next phase of life is by establishing and maintaining strong relationships.
