At this point in time the staff of 2023-2024 is signing off and the staff of 2024-2025 is stepping in. Issue 25 is here on campus and online! Issue 26 will be the new staff's first issue. buff.ly/3UjAruV

SPARK: "As universities like Valpo strive to foster a vibrant, tight-nit campus community bustling with social interaction, the correlation between student involvement and mental well-being comes under scrutiny." buff.ly/4b5ysBj
SPARK: "Valpo prides itself on its student involvement, the Student Life webpage itself citing that, “90% of students are involved in a co-curricular.” While this may seem like a campus that is thriving, what cost is this involvement having on students?" buff.ly/3W5koDF
SPARK: "For incoming students, FOCUS is one of their first opportunities to engage with campus and new peers. From registering for classes to playing icebreakers, the day-long event helps calm students’ worries while squaring away administrative details." buff.ly/3Q9Krpy
SPARK: "Students are encouraged to step out of their comfort zones and take advantage of the numerous involvement chances available. This doesn’t guarantee that students will begin college in the same organizations they end college in." buff.ly/4bovnfZ
