The burning of Ferguson

The burning of Ferguson

Kathleen Isenegger, A&E Editor January 14, 2015
Whether or not you believe Darren Wilson was justified in his actions that caused the death of 18 year old Michael Brown is not the issue at hand. Trying to encapsulate what is going on in our country by isolating this one event is absurd. Tens of thousands of people across the United States are not protesting due to the debatable murder of one man. By A&E Editor: Kathleen Isenegger

Parking lots at HHS worry student drivers

Jordan Pudvay, Social Media Editor December 8, 2014
As Michigan’s weather is starting to hit and more student at Howell are getting their licenses throughout the year, Howell High School’s parking lots are getting even crazier to get in and out of before and after school. Students make their own parking spots, don’t park in the lines or are driving huge cars that don’t fit in the parking spaces. This year alone, there have been two accidents in the parking lots and more than enough accidents that have almost happened because people don’t watch where they’re going.

Snickers and snide comments are prevalent when certain people come across another’s selfie. By News Editor: Lindsey Saba

Who has the right to die?

Michael Gottschalk, Staff Writer November 14, 2014

Maynard became the poster child for the right to die movement, which is for people who are terminally ill and wish to end their suffering on their own accord. By Staff Writer: Michael Gottschalk
