Hollywood comes to Anderson

December 28, 2022 by Benjamin Gaston

The Pathway to the Valley: Samuel Cho

May 3, 2022 by Victoria Storm

On a cool spring afternoon, many individuals fill the student-run campus coffee shop. Music plays at a medium volume, often drowned out by the sound of grinding coffee or friendly conversation. One individual sits at a large group table, happily socializing. His math textbook sits open in front of him. The spectacled individual, with slick dark hair and a bright smile, had a truly winding path to get to where he is today. Samuel Cho is a freshman international student this year at Anderson … [Read more...]

Instagram accounts polarize students

March 27, 2022 by Gillian Lintz

What began as a lighthearted joke has become one of the most polarizing topics on campus: anonymous Instagram accounts. Accounts like “Overheard @ AU” and “Anderson University Squirrels” have existed peacefully on the social media platform as a way of promoting community and humor on campus through anonymously submitted overheard quotes and photos of AU’s squirrels, but a new account, “AU Bad Fits,” began a chain reaction of new accounts due to its controversy among students. After the … [Read more...]

Coach Carter Collins

March 13, 2022 by Jonathan Williams

Growing up, Carter Collins had a love of sports thrown at him from both sides of the family. On his mom’s side, it was golf. On his dad’s side, basketball. An unlikely pairing, but Collins found himself fascinated by both sports: one a fast-paced, high-action contact sport with running, jumping and dunking, and the other an intensely slow game of precision and aim. Thus, it was likely no surprise to anyone when Collins, who was already the assistant head coach for Anderson University’s Men’s … [Read more...]
