How would I, Gracyn Wener, explain Gracyn Wener? She’s a stereotypical Aries. A constant violator of twitter’s community guidelines. A self-described Beatles historian (she literally cried when she walked across Abbey Road). A chronic wearer of plaid. Frequent Starbucks customer. Really big fan of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. A lover […]
I have been attending MCCC for four semesters (including this one). I am planning to transfer as an English major in the fall to either Eastern Michigan University or Georgetown University. My dream career goals include obtaining my doctorate and becoming a professor as well as acquiring a government position […]

My name is Cole Younglove. I’m a college freshman at MCCC. My goals are to get a basic understanding of journalism so that I might transfer to EMU after my 2 years. I’m very into writing, but I often get writers block in the form of boredom of a topic. […]
For as long as I can remember, I have been interested in writing. This interest probably stemmed from my love of reading. The first book I read by myself was “Dick and Jane.” I remember the feeling of finally realizing that those squiggly lines on the page meant something. “See […]
