The veteran misconception: New org at Cedarville seeks to support students transitioning from the  military

By Madison Dyer  Veteran students face a unique challenge when coming to college, even such a welcoming one as Cedarville University.  People who serve in the military have the option to go to college on a scholarship after they complete their service. It is near impossible to recognize veteran students, nobody ever mentions them in passing and most students are too busy to dedicate more than a second of consideration to their veteran peers’ situation.  Dr. Jason Grimm, ...

Vote with Vision creates conversation, not debate, around politics on campus

By Maggie Fipps Today, bringing up the election is an instant conversation killer. Tiring commercials with dramatic music air every break, and it seems every other Facebook post is a new way to superimpose Trump onto a famous figure. It can be fatiguing to begin thinking about what you will write on your ballot in November.  Vote with Vision, a new initiative on campus, is hoping to start a better conversation around this fall’s election. Josh Chapin, Destiny Gaines, Luke Ring and ...

‘Io Capitano’ provides an eye-opening perspective on African emigration

By Isaac Steward This review contains spoilers for “Io Capitano” “Io Capitano” is different from the movies I normally watch.  I’ve always felt drawn to films with far away settings, high stakes and happy endings. “Io Capitano” has all of these things, and yet it is so incredibly different from what I usually watch. The setting isn’t as far away as we can be tempted to think, the stakes are very real and the ending isn’t as happy as it might seem. All the same, ...

By Ben Konuch “They don't even know what they got, cause they always had it. Never hungry, born full. But not us. The world wasn't built for guys like us.” Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” was one of the greatest superhero films we’ve gotten in recent years, and without a doubt the best product out of a tortured DC Studios in decades. It portrayed of Batman and his world as gritty and realistic yet undoubtedly “comic-book-ish” in its storytelling and aesthetics. So, when DC ...

Testimony Tuesday: The beauty in letting go

By Bella Agnello Evangelism does not always mean preaching on the streets or going on mission trips. Often, it is simply sharing personal stories of seeing God’s glory and sovereignty. Ellie Binger, a sophomore Exercise Science major, knows just how important it is to share testimonies. This past summer, Binger shared her story in front of over 100 people at a Christian college group. When sharing what God did in her life, Binger’s message of hope is that there is beauty in ...

On Monday, September 23rd, Cedarville University hosted their first Synergy Initiative event of the 2024-2025 year. GO City Connections encouraged ...

Tuttle’s Takes: Week 3 Surprises and Storylines

By Emily Tuttle Begging my hotspot to work, I pulled up my beloved streaming service in the car on Sunday at 1 p.m. to watch week three of the NFL unfold.

It is early in the season; teams are desperate to establish themselves, and young players try to avoid being cast aside as a bust.
