“The transition was crazy, and people were burning flags for no reason.” Hailey Dale, Sophomore

“I think that it’s great that millions of people around the country came together for the Women’s March. I also think it’s great we’re all bonding and not letting anyone (Trump mainly) take our basic human rights.” Kalel Coleman, Sophomore
