Column: covering sports from the backburner in a pandemic
It was Nov. 29, 2020, and the Spartans were gearing up to play the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. I was on gamer duty, sick to my stomach as I tried my best to finish the article before the final buzzer sounded like my editor had wanted.

My predictions for the 63rd Grammy Awards
Anyone who is close to me knows that music is very important to me. There is seldom a moment where I exist in silence — I am always filling that void with music.

Column: It's time to talk about how we're learning colonial history
"The whitewashed version of colonial history has become so ingrained in our education system that we no longer question what might be left unsaid. We take what we hear at face value and assume Columbus sailing the ocean blue in 1492 is all there is to be taught."
