Wesley Kinney Love thy neighbor Grove City College’s Focus Week encouraged students to “Love Thy Neighbor” this week with a series of events and lec- tures centered around service and love for others. The principle verse for Focus Week is 1 John 3:18, which says, “Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” Talks included a wide range of speakers from different backgrounds, including Philosophy professor Ryan West and Resident Director Ben Meekin. Topics of discussion focused on several diverse issues concerning relationships, from hospital- ity to loving others in the digital age. Sponsored by Student Life and Learning, this event has been an opportunity for students to focus on God for four years in a row. This year in particular, students were inspired to focus on serving each other as well.

ElisaBeth Shrom Staff Writer

Last week, tragedy struck: dedicated users of the esteemed app, Snapchat, were devastated to discover the most recent update, which includes major changes to the structure of the app’s setup. Previously, the app was divided into three main screens: personal conversations between friends or groups on the left, a camera display in the center and stories on the right. Already, previous updates have made the story page more advertisement dominated. Moving stories to the left screen caused a unified disgruntlement from users across the board. We would rather decide ourselves when to watch stories instead of being interrupted by them every time we are having a one-on-one conversation. Perhaps the most striking part of the update is how Snapchat did not wait for users to manually update the app through the App Store. Thousands of people were alarmed at the change that occurred unaware to us. I was hearing a lot of negativity about a new Snapchat update from friends through conversation, on the app itself and on Twitter. This noise led me to question how deeply the update truly upset users. Did people hate it enough to stop opening the app? And were there just as many Snapchatters who did not mind the update but were not voicing their unpopular opinion? So I did what any reasonable millennial in my situation would do. I created a Twitter poll. My 24-hour poll asked my faithful followers to vote on their feelings about the update. The four choices made available in this vote were 1: “I’m deleting the app now” 2: “I hate it, but keeping it” 3: “I’m neutral” and 4: “I’m okay with it.” If there were an option for a fifth vote, I would have thrown in “I love it.” Out of the forty-five voters, 64 percent of people said they hate it, but they are keeping it. 22 percent claimed they are now deleting the app (though I do expect that some answered this sarcastically.), 10 percent are okay with it and 4 percent are neutral. None of these results blew my mind, it was exactly what I expected. A claim circulated the internet that Snapchat would consider switching back to its old ways, if enough people were in support of the reversion. The verdict on that is still up in the air. And to be honest, I do not see that happening. We hate the update, but we are still committed to using Snapchat and communicating with our friends through a 7-year old app. It has become an integral part of our daily lives, and I know that I, for one, want to continue sharing photos and updates with others through it. Snapchat now offers opportunity for so much more than simply sending a snap to friends. Their agenda has switched from serving solely as a platform for friends to communicate and share their lives to a place where people can quickly gather information from click-bait about things that ultimately do not matter at all. The types of things Snapchat wants us to care about are a waste of time and energy. Making more space for these things frustrates users. Still, I do not think the annoyance is great enough for Snapchat to change their ways, so they are indeed brilliant at pushing their agenda.
