This year, Covenant College announced the addition of three new majors: Christian ministry, health sciences and worship leadership. These new offerings sparked interest in new students and current students alike since they have allowed these students to pursue majors that better suit their interests.
Early Monday morning at 1:19 a.m., two masked men entered the second floor of Carter, offloaded a black garbage bag on Ekklesia, and beat a hasty retreat. Ryan Wood ’28, a resident of Second Central and an eyewitness at the scene, was the first to approach the bag.

Amy Johnson 27’ used to order the cheese quesadilla all the time at The Blink … but not anymore.
The quesadilla’s price rose from $2.75 to $5 over the summer, and many students don’t get it.
“I’m a lot less likely to go to the Blink now,” said Johnson, a junior from the student apartments. She said she’d prefer to make quesadillas herself.
Surviving midterms—two words that shouldn’t go together but yet somehow always do. As the mid-semester wraps up, students are met with an inevitable fate—midterm burnout. We all experience burnout one way or another.

In sports, it’s not how you start—it’s how you finish. Yes, I am aware of how cliché that sounds, but it’s more true than you would think.

If someone were to say ten years ago, during the dominance of Alabama and Clemson, that college football is as fair as it has ever been, most would not bat an eye. And yet, here we are. This divide between expectation and reality in college football right now is second to none in mind-blowing things. For starters, almost half of the teams ranked in the top 25 in the preseason are not ranked at all now. By this standard, everyone is correct in calling this era of college football the era of parity—and chaos!

The growing cost of room and board at Covenant is causing more underclassmen to wonder why they can’t move off campus and save thousands of dollars.
The price of living on campus rose by nearly $1,000 over the summer to $13,250 for the current school year.
But even with the largest freshman class in history taking every available bed on campus, the college continues to require freshmen, sophomores and juniors to live in a dorm.
