It’s the end of the semester, and that means it’s time for a finals week playlist! I cheated a bit, and I’m reusing an old playlist. It’s called “if i ran a coffee shop and picked the music.” I don’t know about you, but by finals week, I want to treat myself and do all […]
Welcome back to my new music column. I will admit, this playlist is mostly emo tunes and Spanish pop. A weird mix, but I think it works! I hope you do too! 1. “Dose” by Ciara Keila Lau-Lopez showed me this song a few weeks back, and it has been on repeat ever since. The […]

The Stampede wanted to know what questions Milligan students […]
Suicide was the second leading cause of death for people between the ages of 10 to 34 in 2016 according to the National Institute of Mental Health. September is National Suicide Prevention Month, and Milligan’s Student Government Organization sponsored their own week for suicide awareness and prevention Sept. 17-21.

Welcome to my twice monthly column where I talk about new music, to the world or to just me, and that may be new to you! A Spotify playlist will accompany each week so you can check out the music for yourself (I even took the time to put them in the best order (in […]
Tess Evan-Shell almost has Milligan in her DNA. She knew she would attend here for college but never imagined she’d get to work here. She has a passion for Milligan and theatre which was evident as I talked with her. Q: How did you get to Milligan? I have always been connected to Milligan. […]
