Student-run newspaper at Bridgewater State University
The Rondileau Student Union, or RSU, is arguably one of the most popular places for students to go and hang out on campus. With lots of open space, a vending machine, and a giant chessboard, there’s a lot to enjoy. However, there is one essential piece missing to complete this almost perfect puzzle: computers. It’s […]
As I enter my third year of college, I think about how increasingly shocked I am by the lack of education on birth control. From talking to 20-year-olds who don’t know that condoms have expiration dates, (Yes, they do expire!) to listening to misinformation about birth control, the more dismal my outlook on sex education […]
Dear readers, I’m Jiamin Yu, an international exchange student at Bridgewater State University for this semester. The essay you are about to read is my interview with Deborah Critzer about 9/11.

I feel like men don’t get the recognition they deserve, so I decided to dedicate this Ode to them. Honestly, they are so selfless that you don’t even […]
