For our readers keeping up with Taste Testers: a tradition where we go around Boulder buying specific foods and ranking them on a handy little table to determine the quality, price, and deliciousness of the item. In this issue, we are chomping down on dumplings. Seeing all of the different dumplings and names for dumplings made us wonder, what even is a dumpling? To figure this out, we must start...

Summer break is fast approaching and with almost three months of time off comes the opportunity to leave one’s ordinary life behind and go far away to some unique place. How would one travel to such foreign and distant destinations? An airplane. Airplanes (which this article is about if you haven’t figured out), are these aluminum tubes with a wing jutting out of either side, containing crowded...

In an exclusive interview with The Owl, Mr. Trinkner addressed the rumors of a potential Fountain Pen Repair Club, "It's more than rumors [but] less than a plan, at the moment," he weighed, "But given student interest, I think we can revive it." The original fountain pen repair club was founded nearly 6 years ago, when some of Mr. Trinkner's upperclassmen students were captivated by his enthusiasm...

What factor determines the equipment a pleasure craft must carry? Studies by the National Institute of Health, have indicated that 83.2% of US teenagers consume caffeinated beverages regularly, and at least 96% consume them occasionally. Personally, I enjoy consuming on average a cup of coffee, matcha, or chai per day. With this high level of consumption, there has been a rise in health concerns;...

School lunch is a touchy subject. Many students are very critical of the lunch at BVSD, with people we have interviewed saying, “Most of it is suspicious looking,” “It tastes terrible,” and “They possibly incorporate sawdust.” However, many students also offer praise for the school lunch, responding that “It is a lot better than most districts,” “It’s pretty good” and “It’s...

As most of you already know, Shein was exposed as being an extremely unethical company in 2022. This is because of its violation of labor laws, stolen clothing designs, and drastic negative effects on the environment. Because of these factors, I believe Shein deserves the widespread backlash it got. However, I am also puzzled by this, as many other popular companies are doing similar things while...

Boulder High is one of the oldest school buildings in Colorado. Built in 1875, Boulder High has had a colorful history of staff and students who have walked the century-old halls. While being one of these students, I have concluded that the school is undeniably haunted. As the one of the only schools in Colorado that has an annual haunted house, these conspiracies starts to make sense. Some spots...

In the January issue, we wrote about students’ experiences with searches here at Boulder High School, and how these relate to BVSD policy and the law. Since then, The Owl has had more students come forward who were interested in giving us interviews, and we have looked into more resources and documents on school searches. With this new information, we are following up with a second part, and hope...
