"We don’t keep fire extinguishers around because we expect our buildings to catch fire every Tuesday. We keep them around because if something does happen, waiting for someone else to arrive is not much of a plan."
"I’ve seen videos from every corner of the women’s sports community showing how valuable sports are and what they mean to women. Diminishing our love for sports by making a nude commercial is not only hurtful but harmful."
"The most recent Battle for the Victory Bell, held in 2024, ended in an unfortunate loss for Miami University. It also happened to be the first college football game I got to experience."

"I made myself miserable as a first-year student because I refused to make other long-term friends, swayed by my own misconception that my roommate was the only person I needed. Humans crave companionship, so please go find your people."

"I did things I didn’t know I was capable of, got out of my comfort zone and learned enough to pass both of my proficiency tests when I got back. It was a learning experience not only as a student, but as a person."
"Trump won’t be the last to intervene, but he misses the fact that the power of sports comes from its uncontrollability. Sports only work because they exist independently of the rational world."
"So, as the spring semester progressed, I found myself packing to move into my 'home away from home.'"
"You’re not becoming an engineer or a doctor — not one worth trusting, at least, because those jobs have requirements for a reason. All you’re learning is how to convince the chatbot to give you answers that sound correct enough."
"As a now-sophomore, I consider my first-year experience to be one of the most influential times of my life, and I genuinely wouldn’t change it for the world."
