COUNTERPOINT: I know it’s the law, but Young Life still shouldn’t be at RB
January 21, 2012 • Kelly Kramer, A&E Manager
READ CAMERON KRITIKOS’ COUNTER OPINION ON YOUNG LIFE. I’d like to begin by saying that I have no problem with Young Life, and I do not believe the club is at fault for anything stated in this story. I just find it interesting that a religious club is allowed to be so promoted within a public... Read more »
How can I register when I haven’t even finished a semester?
January 17, 2012 • Kate Alaks, Staff Reporter
We’re only halfway through the school year, and already most of the students, particularly upperclassmen, are registered for next year’s classes. Registration started in November, and will probably be finished before February comes. Personally, I find a lot of problems for students with this system. For... Read more »
The winter without snow
January 11, 2012 • Madison Powers, Web Editor
The RB community is used to having a lot of snow during the winter. If you could think back to last year, RB had the first snow day in years due to the large amounts of snow!

How the failed referendum has affected me
December 14, 2011 • Brenden Kaminski, Staff Reporter
Ever since the referendum, school life has changed. I used to have a class size of twenty, and it was wonderful. It was so easy to learn, and when the teacher spoke, everybody listened. Now, I have thirty students in a class. This makes it harder to learn and listen when the teacher is speaking. My... Read more »
The sign says NO parking
December 1, 2011 • Madison Powers, Web Editor
Parking at RB can be quite a hassle. I’m not talking about the walk from the parking lot to the school or even finding a spot. I’m talking about when the 3:05 bell has finally rung and the student body leaves the building and heads toward the parking lot. I know many students who move as quickly... Read more »

So when is it a good idea to let those ideas take charge and kick the candy collecting?... Read more »
