‘Spider-Man 2’ is all killer and no filler Michael Clark Staff Reporter
Review Just as the PlayStation 5 began to feel rather stale with its exclusives, we can leave it to Insomniac to swing in with one of the best games of the year. See, I was a Spider-Man kid growing up. I’d often wreck my house through failed parkour attempts, trying hard to mimic my favorite superhero. Those days have passed, but picking up “Spider-Man 2” felt like the scene in “Ratatouille” when Anton Ego takes a bite of his meal and is taken back to his childhood. “Spider-Man 2” is a darker and bolder successor to Insomniac’s take on the “Spider-Man” franchise, and it pays off in spades. While the plot juggles countless storylines all at once, they manage to weave these threads into a perfect web of emotional, entertaining goodness. See ‘Spider-Man 2’ on 7 “Spider-Man 2” is a darker and bolder successor to Insomniac’s take on the “Spider-Man” franchise.

Nick Becker Dyeing the Edmon Low Library fountain is a tradition that kicks off Homecoming each year.
OSU kicks off Homecoming Addie Wagner Staff Reporter
Each year, 72 ounces of orange dye transforms Edmon Low’s Fountain into a fiery symbol of school spirit at Oklahoma State University. Once the dye is poured,
and every inch of the fountain glows orange, a new season commences: America’s Greatest Homecoming. The fountain dyeing took place yesterday at 6 p.m. It is “OSU’s greatest tradition,” as students, alumni and fans alike all come together to watch this momentous occasion. Visitors of all ages gathered at the library to witness
the fountain dyeing. Senior Administration Support Assistant for the Agricultural College Nickie Allison said it was her first time at the event, and although she is an employee at Oklahoma State University, she had never come before. “I work here and live here in Stillwater and thought it would be cool to be a part of the tradition,” Allison said.
