After nearly 10 years as a publication, it has come to our attention that the editorial board, along with our loyal readership, has been duped.

We have decided the only honorable way forward is to shutter our doors as a news outlet, and begin our path to atonement by helping out those who we hurt the most with our slander: the University bureaucracy.
