Wow! What a bittersweet end to my college journey. If I could go back and do it all again, I would. I have always known I wanted to be a reporter since fourth grade. My teachers would tell my parents that I was “too talkative,” so why not put that skill into motion? I joined Met TV at the beginning of my freshman year as a very timid 18-year-old. Right away, I knew it was...

I have rewritten this lead five times in hopes of finding a succinct way to convey what Met Media has meant to me over the last four years. But it’s hard to do so when a small office in the Tivoli means the world to you. The first time I stepped foot into Tivoli 313, I was a sophomore craving purpose. I felt alone and lost in Summer 2016, so I introduced myself to then-editors...

MSU Denver is a campus where individuals are encouraged to live their truth and be supported for it.  Right now many Roadrunners may be in the same Coronavirus storm but different boats. In uncertain times like these, it becomes even more important to use the present to think about who we are and how each individual will weather this storm. It has been nearly two months since campus shut down, a transitional time for all...

It’s easy to get caught up with the devastating news, but it’s important that you find what makes you smile. While it’s okay get information from a couple of trustworthy news resources, limit your intake. Check in with your loved ones often, watch a comedy movie, look at silly cat videos. If we smile, we are telling our brains that we’re happy. It’s important that we keep a positive mind and take care of our...
