There aren’t many opportunities to get advice on Hollywood from someone with a legendary acting career. There are even less to learn about the malaria-induced hallucination that led to that career, but during an April 15th event with the University of Colorado Boulder Distinguished Speakers board, Rebel Wilson told all. The speakers board is a student-led organization associated with the...
Well Boulder High, it’s that time of year. It feels like just yesterday I was writing my first article about the rise of flip-flops, and now here I am writing my final one.

As I walk into the library of Boulder High School, I see students chatting and commiserating over grades, others quietly studying and a few attempting to hide their phones and food from the librarian's eyes. It feels distinctly modern, but at its core, it’s not so different from what Boulder High has always been: a place where students gather, learn, and create memories. This year, Boulder High...
