Op-Ed: The cost of convenience and our digital future
I, like many others, have dived headfirst into the digital-only world of media that we live in today. The days of waiting for the DVD logo to hit the corner of the screen are long gone. Can we really be blamed? Most televisions on the market come with their own user interface and the pre-downloaded streaming apps that we’ve all come to love and hate. As consumers, we’re incentivized to make streaming and digital purchases over buying physical versions of movies, games and music. Let’s take the newly released Toy Story 5 as an example. You could purchase its brand-new Blu-ray for $24.99 at your local retail store, which would…

Opinion: Before you vote, read the local news
For the first time in eight years, Tennessee will vote on a new governor during the midterm election. The race has drawn national attention, as Memphis Democrat Jerri Green challenges famed Republican Marsha Blackburn for the seat. Voters will also cast their ballots in all nine of the state’s congressional districts, as well as for a state senator.

Department of Security releases 2026 Annual Security and Fire Safety Report
At the end of September, the Lipscomb Department of Security released its 2026 Annual Security and Fire Safety Report. The Report shows remarkably few instances of reported crime for the years 2023, 2024, and 2025. Students see this as testimony to the Department of Security’s effectiveness. “Students are thriving,” freshman Luke Nadeau said. “The security here is top-level, and seeing their presence around campus is comforting. Nashville is urban, so it has some criminal activity, but Lipscomb is situated in a relatively safe area, fortunately. … As a guy, I don’t really worry about safety very much; having sisters, I know this is a concern for many girls. Still, the…
