Everyone makes mistakes
“At Monday night’s Senate meeting, I made a statement during our State Colleges Conference presentation saying that the Peru State Times must have prior approval from the PSC administration before publishing, and that they must also publish the opposing point of view in their opinion articles.
After further research, the original information presented, requiring approval and opposing articles, was proven to be false.
I am making this statement to correct those statements in our presentation. Peru State Times neither needs approval from the PSC administration for articles reflecting poorly on the school or its affiliates, nor is required to publish two sides to opinions.
I apologize for the incorrect information and take full responsibility for correcting that statement.”
—Jacob Rissler,
CSC Student Association President

Read MoreDon’t crucify graduate students on a cross of fees
When I was an undergraduate, I worked four jobs.
I worked at the CSC Print Shop, at the Sandoz Center, at Wreckers Roadhouse, and as an assistant to the geography professor.
Between those jobs, my savings before I got to college, and a little help from my folks, I graduated without debt.
I won’t be able to say the same as a graduate student.
A positive outlook helps you cope with the unexpected
More than once, I have been told I am too happy, that I smile too often, or that I have way too much perkiness. I’ve been compared to an over-active puppy dog; annoyingly full of energy and happiness.

A friend of mine works at the Best Western here in Chadron, and often sees characters of all sorts come through. Two weeks ago, she texted me about the football team that was staying in their hotel.
