Was it privacy concerns, fear of negative consequences, or do they simply not care? Those are the questions I keep asking myself when I think about a recent assignment. As a videographer for the Agora, I’ll go out and pose questions to students on campus and record their comments. On […]
Trying new things can be scary, especially new things that put you in the spotlight. This year, my first year of college, I have had opportunities to experience many new things. One of those new things was acting. Last semester, on a day when I was feeling lonely, I decided […]
The first time I met Dr. Ronald Campbell, MCCC’s first president, was back in the summer of 2016. I was 12 years old and my mom and sister were going weekly to visit with his wife, Mrs. Blondelle Campbell at Monroe Springs Rehab and Nursing Center. We would go and […]
Editorial A bomb threat in April 2023 was improperly handled among security. An electrical fire in the H Building wasn’t addressed for 15 minutes, even after contact from those involved.

We support equality and diversity, and stand against those […]
The Michigan Museum of Horror is haunted, and I have proof. In October 2023, I started working with Andrew Mcgowan, a paranormal investigator who explores and films haunted locations, which he posts on his YouTube channel “Andrew’s Paranormal Experience.” At 9 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 27, Andrew and I prepared […]
Becoming a newspaper editor had been a dream of mine since age 15. I had no understanding of journalism, but I had my sights set on writing for a paper and eventually becoming the boss. Now, as a 17-year-old senior in high school, I’m nearing the end of my first […]
Our editor sits, crying alone, hidden in the privacy of the newsroom on an almost empty Friday morning. It was Friday, March 22. Maggie Sandefur had a particularly harsh morning and was hoping for some peace and quiet away from the world. The door to the newsroom opens and she’s […]
