I don’t know Evan Emory. But gathering from his YouTube channel and his interviews with local news outlets, I’d say he is a lot of things – he’s a musician, a joker and a risk taker. He’s also vulgar and a little reckless....

Dear students of GVSU, Many of you are not happy that Michigan is cutting the availability of Bridge Cards for us students. I, however, think it is one of the best things the government has done in a long time. Beginning in April, only those who have...
