Laura Goettsch, Copy Editor
April 19, 2013

“So Laura, how would you feel about being editor-in-chief of The Grand Views?” If someone had asked me that one year ago I would have wittily replied, “uhhhhh…ermmm… I don’t know about that.” However, here I am, and I couldn’t be more honored. It has been one crazy year filled with challenges... Read more »

Same pen, different paper, here we go again

Stephanie Ivankovich, Editor-in-Chief
April 19, 2013

As I sit here, writing my last The Grand Views editorial, the only thought running through my head is wow, this is it. Cue the Michael Jackson song, “This Is It.” For the last eight years, four here at Grand View, four in high school, I have sat in front of the latest Macintosch computer working... Read more »

April 12, 2013

The countdown has begun. There are 15 days left until graduation. I know that in these last few weeks I am guaranteed to be a frantic mess as I hope to finish all my projects, complete my assignments and I pray for passing grades. I have to walk in 15 days.

April 12, 2013

My college experience has been a long and winding road. Seven years, four colleges and countless majors later, I’m speechless that the end is actually here. Coming to Grand View, I chose the easiest major I could think of, and planned to come in, get my degree, and get out. I didn’t come here to... Read more »

There are 15 days until the graduating class of 2013 ventures from Grand View University.

One hundred fifty-two- that’s the number of papers, stories and poems I’ve written over the last four years, or at least what I’ve saved.  For some reason my hobbies include writing, and I’m actually planning to let my writing ability make me money. For 22 Fridays, in this exact spot, there... Read more »

Nap time is over, it’s time to graduate

Joey Aguirre, Sports Editor
April 12, 2013

I’m three weeks away from being a college graduate, me, this guy, I can’t believe it. One of the biggest clichés of all time is how fast time goes. I remember when it was my freshman year of high school and one of the seniors told us to enjoy being freshmen because, before we know it, we will be... Read more »

#Math class #blah #algebra not my best subject! @JordanVoigt @EmmaBean91 #classmates. It hasn’t been long since texting, tweeting, Facebooking and Instagramming blew up into their current crazed state.
