The term "student journalism" carries quite a bit of weight and meaning for all those who staff this nation’s numerous school newspapers. The term perfectly encapsulates all our blood, sweat and (sometimes happy) tears in a neat, self-explanatory phrase, conjuring up images of late nights spent writing, editing and producing articles that may only ever be read by parents and close friends. More importantly, however, “student journalism” also captures our belief in and commitment to practicing journalism in its purest form. A form predicated upon researching, writing and producing articles for no other reason than a deep love for the truth, even if this truth operates at the small-scale level of everyday life.

You may not even realize just how many books, movies and shows you consume that have a protagonist whose mother either died when they were a child, or is missing without explanation. Out of the 12 official Disney princesses, half of them don’t have a mother. The loss of a parent doesn’t define someone — but it does impact them.

It’s hard to explain to someone who doesn’t understand just how much it means when someone like that believes in you when you had never believed in yourself before.

Younger generations often fail to recognize the wealth of experience and wisdom of older individuals, while older generations can feel dismissed by the ambitions of the young. Intergenerational connection is exactly what we need in a disenchanted and polarized society.
Nonchalance, the act of casually behaving in an unconcerned fashion, has taken over our lives. Perhaps more correctly put, the act of striving to look nonchalant has. In recent years, trying one’s hardest to appear as though they are not trying at all has become a foundation of our sociability, climbing to prominence on the internet and social media.
