Since the Web site for The Knox Student is now updated regularly, I can keep apprised of the goings-on of my alma matter. I have to say what I have seen reported lately greatly disappoints me — not the reporting by TKS itself, but rather the events they are reporting, namely the actions by many in the administration (and often supported by students and faculty) who are trying to limit the debate and progress of concerned ...

We are writing in response to last week’s article "The long road of an AVM" by Evan Temchin. Jessica Platt is our RA and the suddenness and severity of her situation has been a real shock to us. We’ve been very worried about her, but the efforts of her boyfriend, Evan, have helped us cope with the situation. We would like to thank him for so many things. From day one he has ...

In SLC's May 8th meeting, Fucoloro was blackmailed into agreeing to go off the record under threat of executive session (expulsion from the meeting) and subsequently accosted for (heaven forbid) allowing a student unassociated with TKS to voice ...

Tuesday, at the Student Life Committee, the gloves came off.

A number of us went to the meeting. We knew, as has been reported in TKS, that SLC had voted itself into permanent executive session for the remainder of the school year, in response to criticism about, among other things, their tendency to go into executive session. But we felt it was important to demonstrate what SLC often forgets: their committee has direct bearing over ...
