	Time is the secret to life By Sara Clifton May 10, 2013 - 11:32am Two years can seem like a lifetime. Two years can seem like a fleeting moment. Two years just isn't enough time. I didn’t expect all that much when I arrived at SAU as a transfer student. I really didn’t believe that I’d find some of my best friends. But I did, and now I don’t want to let them go. These people inspire me. The make me laugh. They make me happy. They occasionally make me cry. And, most importantly—they make me appreciate every moment, every memory and every time I see them. Life can change in an instant. I’ve seen it happen. That’s why I appreciate my SAU education so much. READ MORE

	Thank You For All of the Memories By Mary Madormo May 8, 2013 - 11:00am So, the time has come. This Saturday I will put on that cap and gown, cross the stage and be able to call myself a college graduate. This marks the moment I will enter the so-called “real world,” full of 9-to-5 days and 10 p.m. bedtimes. It seems absolutely terrifying. But recently when I was reflecting on this big jump into adult life, I realized that the real world doesn’t just happen after I’m handed the diploma—it’s today, yesterday, the past four years. After high school it was relatively easy to leave and start a new life, making new friends and tending to lose touch with a few of the old ones. It was easy to forget about wearing uniforms and enjoy my culottes-free college wardrobe. READ MORE ...

	See You Soon, Ambrose By Sarah Vogel May 7, 2013 - 8:07pm I’m just going to start this out honestly – I am not prepared to graduate. I am in complete denial that in just a few short days, I will be separated from my best friends for an unknown amount of time. Four years ago, I was ready to transfer out of Ambrose. Now, I can’t imagine leaving. There are so many people here who have truly become my family. I wish I could just bundle them all up and take them with me to Minnesota. Sadly, that’s not the way it works, but I can take this opportunity to let them know how much they mean to me. READ MORE
	Well-Rounded Women of Color on TV By Natalie Roth May 7, 2013 - 12:30pm The majority of people in charge of the media at the top levels, are rich, white men. That chain of power trickles down to all aspects of the media, including writers, directors and editors. Thus, television is mostly populated with white people, and many of its stories revolve around men. However, women and people of color have been making strides to get themselves and their voices seen and heard in non-stereotypical ways. Here’s a list of four of the most well-rounded women of color currently on television: READ MORE
