Turning Point USA becomes new club on campus By Aubrie Lawrence Editor-in-Chief
WCHR offering free COVID vaccines and u shots next week
During CAB’s rst meeting of the semester on Aug. 29, CAB representatives voted to approve Turning Point USA as a new club on campus. is new club is a chapter of the national Turning Point USA organization which, according to its website, has clubs on 3,000 campuses with over 250,000 high school and college student members. “I decided to bring Turning Point USA to CSC as a way for likeminded students to express their beliefs in a fun and safe environment across campus,” President of the CSC chapter Chris Jennings, 19, sophomore of O’Neill, said. “I think Turning Point USA has the potential to grow and be one of the largest and most accepting club across campus.” Jennings said that the club’s mission is to “identify, educate, train, and organize students to promote the principles of freedom, free markets, and limited government.” e national organization was founded in 2012 by Charlie Kirk, who was the youngest speaker at the 2016 Republican National eConvention.clubwillmeet at 6 p.m. in the e HUB on Sept. 20, Oct. 18 and Nov. 8. Jennings said he hopes to make meeting times more frequent “within a semester.” He said that Turning Point will hold events such as watching short lms, playing conservative themed games and giving out “fun and ashy conservative themed merchandise.” “I believe that students should join Turning Point USA because people do not need to be friends with people who would abandon you solely based on your values,” he said. “We are not just a group for avid politicos. We are a club for campus independents and conservatives to gather, to grow as individuals and professionals, and form the bonds that carry on well beyond the years of college. In a time when anyone who opposes someone, and the result could be being canceled from a social circle, Turning Point USA chapters are here to ll the void for students looking for quality friends.”

People need to stop entering rela tionships or chasing relationships on the premise of they might have potential and start dating people they genuinely like. And this goes for people in the talking stage too. Once you realize that the person you were chasing would only be what you want if they changed a few things then let them go and move on. They are not going to change. And you shouldn’t want them to, unless it’s something that is threatening their life. And even then it’s not on you, they have to choose to change. You are not their therapist or their parent, and you shouldn’t have to act like onePeopleeither.aren’t projects and you aren’t Bob the Builder. Put the tools down and walk away.In the beginning stages of talking or dating, people are always going to try to put their best side out. So, if you think that there is something you wouldn’t really be willing to compromise on maybe take a minute to realize you should leave. If you don’t like them at their best, I think you’ll have a rude awakening when they’re at their worst. I know it sucks and some times you really don’t want to leave. But staying will only hurt you and that person more and if you really like them you shouldn’t want to do that either. Realizing that a person isn’t it for you isn’t fun, but it’s a part of life. Staying in a relationship or continuing to talk to someone past when you realize it won’t work only guarantees you both get hurt and waste time. Moving on before you let either of you start thinking things will last longer than they should save you a lot of time and heartbreak.Plusifyou don’t wait till too much dam age is done, you might be able to end things amicably and leave with a friend. Take off the rose-colored glasses, they won’t help you. In fact, they do a really good job of making little red flags blend in, both yours and theirs. And then when it’s over and the dust settles, you’ll both be very embarrassed about the red flags you missed and the things you let Now,happen.I’m not saying to leave as soon as thing get rough, that would mean failure for every relationship. You have to take the good with the bad.

With one in five Americans hav ing accrued $1.65 trillion in student loan debt, the promise of “loan for giveness” sounds tantalizing to a country with inflation rates at a 40 year high. On Aug 24, President Biden rolled out a plan that would allow the cancellation of $10,000 in student loan debt for eligible low to mid income borrowers, and $20,000 for eligible Pell Grant borrowers. Upon introduction, this state ment and its contents have been a topic of heated debate, for a myriad of reasons. To many in and fresh out of college, this sounds like a saving grace, and even more so for the age group of 35-49 year old Americans who have the most amount of debt. Contrarily, those who paid off their loans, at great cost to them, will ultimately face punitive mea sures for doing so in not receiving the $10,000 themselves. Howev er, something that appears to be missing from the focal point of the discussion is the most important as pect: the fine print. Through major financial inter jection and intrusion, the pursuit is reminiscent of the 2008 financial crisis. When large banks acted as predatory loan sharks, they went bankrupt, and the US government paid them back, not the people whose lives were destroyed because of their manipulation-and out right disregard- of the law. In that instance, why did the government back the “bad guy?” The truth is, if someone is on the same side as the “bad guy,” that makes them an enemy, too- and what we’ll find out is that when you make a “deal with the devil” as such, there is always a catch. In June and July President Biden is one of the most unpopular mod ern president, laying on pressure to accomplish campaign promises- at any cost. $10-20,000 dollars being put back in the pocket of what could be 65.9 million Americans (esti mate, applications haven’t opened) sounds too good to be true.

As We See It Over the summer, I got a pair of roller skates for my 20th birthday. I thought it would be a fun and easy way to exercise, but I was sorely mistaken (literally). One week and several big bruises made me reconsider even buying the skates, and I eventually let them sit in the closet,Rollerskatinguntouched.isn’t my first aban doned hobby, either. I remember getting a shiny new bass guitar for Christmas one year, only to learn a few chords and let it collect dust by my dresser. Next a tennis racket, then a pen pal, a fashion blog, and so on. It was so exciting to start these hobbies, but they fizzled out when I wasn’t good at them right away. Why is this? It’s not an uncommon experience, in fact, I think the vast majority of us have experienced the same thing. In 2006, a high school English class in New York City was asked to write letters to famous authors for advice. Only one such author, Kurt Vonnegut, responded. Here is what he had to “Whatsay:Ihad to say to you, moreover, would not take long, to wit: Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soulSeriously!grow.
I mean starting right now, do art and do it for the rest of your lives. Draw a funny or nice picture of Ms. Lockwood (teach er), and give it to her. Dance home after school, and sing in the shower and on and on. Make a face in your mashed potatoes. Pretend you’re CountHere’sDracula.anassignment for tonight, and I hope Ms. Lockwood will flunk you if you don’t do it: Write a six-line poem, about anything, but rhymed. No fair tennis without a net. Make it as good as you possibly can. But don’t tell anybody what you’re doing. Don’t show it or recite it to anybody, not even your girlfriend or parents or whatever, or Ms. Lockwood. OK? Tear it up into teeny-weeny pieces, and discard them into widely separated trash receptacle. You will find that you have already been glo riously rewarded for your poem. You have experienced becoming, learned a lot more about what’s inside you, and you have made your soul grow. God bless you all!” How does this letter make you feel? After this, I encourage you to write the poem Vonnegut talks about, even if you aren’t in high school anymore. As we begin this semester, keep in mind the things that inspire you and don’t be afraid of mediocrity- let’s all try letting our souls grow.
Because it is. One hefty catch is entrenched in how the program changes the income-driven-repayment (IDR) system and financial incentivization for colleges as a product. The issue resides in the incentive for colleges and universities. No matter the loan amount, students will be paying the same percentage rate, allowing them to borrow as much money as possi ble. It is well known that college tu ition is ridiculously expensive: Since 1963 it has increased by 747.8% af ter adjusting for inflation with no feasible finale in sight. In the begin ning years of Barack Obama’s pres idency, in attempts to make college more affordable, consequences akin to these were dished out. The pursuit was to overhaul private loans because they had a higher interest rate, encouraging a significant number of students to only take federal loans and not privatePriorones.toObama’s policy, students were incentivized to borrow as little as possible because of the high in terest rate in private lending, forc ing colleges to lower tuition if they wanted people to attend. With an extremely low interest rate, colleges can charge however much they want because there is no limiting principle. Students have no imme diate accountability for the amount borrowed, and thus little protest is made for the cost. If schools themselves don’t have the immediate accountabili ty of financial duress of students, why would they not raise the cost of attendance?Wesawthis after Obama’s poli cy; efforts made to tackle the unaf fordability of college underhanded ly made the problem worse. Aside from a policy standpoint, there are moral implications and cautionary tales as Throughoutwell. all of human his tory, people have despised the nay-sayer; the person who outcries “the slippery slope” questioning, “If we let this happen, what will hap pen next?” To the dismay of most, the nay-sayers usually have a good point. Though this policy may ap pear to be all good and no bad, there will be consequences, and they will not be good ones. If intellectual consistency applies here, what other loans can be forgiven by the govern ment? How will this affect inflation, our national debt, future lending interest rates for ALL loans, retire ments, the stock market, all of it? Because even upon shallow evalua tion of those categories, it does not look promising. Therefore, it seems like this “hot topic” is being used for good press and to satiate the mass es of Americans crippled by student loan debt- for now.

He had great leadership and was very competitive,” Long said, “When you look at his passing stats, you realize that we as a team had five drops. We make those catches, those stats Longchange.”further stated that the focus in terms of offense is creating better pass protection for Beemiller to make plays. “We gave up zero sacks, but there was a lot of pressures on him,” Long said, “When a quarterback is throwing on the run, that makes everything harder.” Penalties were another big issue for the Eagles on Thursday, especially in the first quarter, with four penalties committed by the defense on the Ram’s first scoring drive as well as a handful of personal fouls later in the game. In total, penalties cost the Eagles 92 total yards.“Iwas disappointed when I talked af ter the game in regard to penalties,” Long said, “It was a definite factor, especially in the first half. If you look at the stats, Angelo State actually out penalized us, but our penalties occurred at a more crucial time in the game.” Despite all these troubles, the Eagle de fense had a strong showing in the second half. Eagle defensive back Dax Yeradi, redshirt freshman of Wright, Wyoming, led the team with eight tackles.
The Eagles will be taking on the Trail blazers on Saturday in St. George, Utah at Greater Zion Stadium.

Its all in the ‘hype’

Coaches and teammates can make the best hypeman depending on how you han dleWithit. nine siblings I have attended a lot of sporting events of all kinds. There are a lot of reason a team can lose but in my opinion one of the biggest is that they don’t keep a good attitude. I thought of the article while watching the Montana State University- Billings play Sioux Falls. If you didn’t see the game they lost in five sets and tensions throughout the game were high.You wouldn’t be able to tell from watch ing the Thosesidelines.players on the bench danced to ev ery song that played and cheered for every singleEvenmove.when things were bad they cheered the whole time. Your attitude does matter, it matters even if its in sports or in school or any other ac tivities.Itstill effects how things go, like right now when we are half an hour away from ourThedeadline.wayyou keep yourself hyped up will make you feel better even when things are really bad. Things can be hard and its easy to get down, especially in sports but the way you react can really effect the outcome. We can’t always change the outcome but we can change our attitude. We spend a lot of time thinking and act ing on how we feel. Maybe it is time to change our feelings and make better decisions in the long run. So weather we are on the sidelines or playing or our coaches, the way we behave.
