Let’s give animation the love it deserves
Jan. 8, 2019When I was younger, animated movies were all the rage. I’m sure many people my age can relate. Disney’s animated classics played on repeat in my household, and I would beg my parents to take me to the movies every time a new animated flick hit the big screen. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed that animated films are often placed on the back burner. Advertising for these films is less apparent; their box office numbers often dwindle and my interest in seeing them has waned.

Jan. 8, 2019One of the best things about going to the UF is the never-ending fountain of opportunities it brings your way. But it doesn’t take long before it feels like the opportunities are overflowing, and it can be hard to catch your breath.

Some New Year’s resolutions for UF
Jan. 7, 2019We are now officially in 2019. With the coming of the new year, many people make New Year’s resolutions for things they want to improve on. However, it doesn’t just have to be individuals who make New Year’s resolutions. For my first column of both the new year and the new semester, I’d like to offer some New Year’s resolutions for UF:

UF Needs To Spend More On Mental Health
Jan. 7, 2019Mental health, I believe, is not given the attention it deserves. This can result in a lack of happiness and contentment and at worst, tragic and preventable suicides for those struggling with their own mental health. College exacerbates stress and mental health issues, warranting an abundance of mental health resources. However, this is often not the case.

Old Friendships and What They Mean For Home
Jan. 7, 2019It’s a new year, and some of us returning Gators are returning with some serious baggage from the holiday season.

It loses its heart: the students, professors and staff who create an entire world that revolves around the university. When these people return, UF once again becomes the thriving well-oiled machine it was meant to be.
