    The IMPACT of our Choices

    The IMPACT of our Choices

    February 7th, 2019 the BMC Drama group IMPACT preformed a stirring rendition of the play titled, “It’s Not Too Late.” Inspired by the horrific shooting that occurred at Columbine High school in 1999, playwright Dick Lentz’s storyline deals with the true weight our choices carry, from issues of faith to simple day to day experiences. The play follows young adults through a typical day of high school, focusing primarily on the storyline of Katie Smith (played by Business major
    The Plague of Plagiarism

    The Plague of Plagiarism

    Around the country, students from all walks of life have been warned about the dangers of plagiarism. The dangers of this heinous act have been drilled into the bright minds of the future.

    Project Smink: Accessibility in Academia

    Founded in the 1800s, Blue Mountain College’s campus is rich in historical buildings and rolling hills. While the aforementioned qualities offer a historically quaint aesthetic, they present serious hindrances for those with physical handicaps attempting to gain access to all the facilities BMC’s campus has to offer. Project Smink is named after Shelby Smink, a junior as well as a Psychology major on campus at BMC with Cerebral Palsy. Due to Shelby’s condition, she has to rel
