After nine months of arduous labor, that special week once again approaches us. Finals week. The word final comes the Latin “fin,” which means the end or the border, and the Greek “al,” which means through great pain and suffering.
Students have spent the entire school year preparing for an hour and a half exam for each...
Thursday marked the opening of the first-ever Bountiful Scholars Tournament, sponsored by The Roundup. According to the advertisement that was sent out for the tournament earlier this semester, "the tournament seeks to showcase the wit and literary interpretative powers of the contestants."
For this first round, scholars must analyze Dr. Seuss' "Green Eggs and Ham" and debate its meaning in...

This event is usually met with extremely average attention, but I think the NBA can change that with a few wise selections in this year's game.

The delight of many people all around (though it originated in Naples, Italy) is so popular that many languages still call it pizza. Even the Arabic word for pizza, "بيتزا," sounds like "pizza!"
