This caused many fans, me included, to worry, among many other reasons, about the fate of episode IX. This Friday at Star Wars Celebration in […]

Like most Milwaukeeans, you woke up this morning in utter disgust and confusion. First, how dare Mother Nature keep perpetuating the joke that “you can experience all four seasons within one week” in Wisconsin! Secondly, I questioned if time travel was real and this is actually January. Now that I have come to my senses […]

Hollywood has given us a lot of safe-and-repeatable romance tropes over the years. A man rushing through the airport to confess his love for a woman before it’s too late, or two enemies who are forced to work together that end up falling in love. Sure, these story plots are clichéd, but they’re harmless. But […]

On March 4, 2019, Media Milwaukee student journalists initially reported that UW-Milwaukee Professor Anthony Azenabor was facing allegations of sexually assaulting one of his PhD student advisees in the basement of Enderis Hall.  The next development in the story came shortly thereafter, when a Media Milwaukee student journalist armed with a list of questions was […]

With Gov. Evers’ recent budget proposal, it confirmed one thing: those who are staunchly opposed to raising Wisconsin’s current minimum wage, from $7.25 an hour, are backing the wrong horse. The budget aims to raise the minimum wage to $10.50 an hour by 2023. There is no way that our neighboring states’ cost of living […]

The UWM Psychology Clinic, University Counseling Services and The Eating Recovery Center hosted a movie screening called “The Student Body” by filmmaker Bailey Webber during UWM Eating Disorder Awareness Week on campus as they chose the film in supporting the week. A panel discussion took place afterwards and students asked UWM Health faculty questions regarding […]

There are some vivid memories I have about my basic school times, back in Brazil. They are normally on Geography or History classes. Maybe Literature, but that was more at High School. And during Geography classes, we learned a lot about the history of South America. This wasn’t actually a thing until the times of […]

From cat-calling to the wage gap to being unable to appease societal expectations of how we live our lives and who we should be, the list of obstacles is endless.
