I answered yes. Af- ter several discussions, we decided to make some major changes to our print issue — we’ve gone from printing three times a term to one single issue. OThe focus of this term’s issue is division, something that’s on everyone’s minds these days. With our political sphere resembling a circus and family and friends being split by their views, it’s hard to see the silver lining. Here you’ll find interpretations of division from all political sides, what it means to be in the middle and how, despite all this EDITORIAL BOARD political dissent, we’re still able to come together through everyday things like Netflix.
