Astro Pittman | The Seattle Collegian What rights do we have to express ourselves as students? The Hazelwood School District v. Kuhlmeier decision specifically deals with school censorship of student-run newspapers. Students taking part in a journalism class at Hazelwood East High School helped to edit and write the school paper. Three students had written an article detailing the experiences of…
Eugenia Montsaroff | The Seattle Collegian This year has been a very good one for films, but it seems that Hollywood has been slacking on originality; in 2018 we have seen more sequels and remakes than ever before.

The tunnel to viaduct walk, run and ride introduced Seattleites to the new tunnel while allowing them to say goodbye to viaduct one last time. Governor Inslee was on hand for a ribbon-cutting ceremony. If you were expecting an…
