MC-TV Station:
Lights...Camera...ACTION!!!
For the first time in school history, Monmouth College has a live news show called MC-TV. The live news show airs on channel 15 on Wednesdays at noon, and it is replayed later Wednesday nights at 7 p.m.
MC-TV is organized by Chris Goble, lecturer in communication and theater arts. Junior Heather Prater is the news producer for MC-TV, and she said a lot of things have changed since last year.
“We’re a weekly show, and last year was a monthly show,” Prater of St. Charles said. “It’s improved quite a lot; we have a lot of creative people and Chris Goble is a great professor to work with.” Read More...

The MC Music Man takes on: Atmosphere
Just about everyone who listens to music knows about the mainstream rappers such as 50 Cent, Kanye West and Jay-Z. These performers put together catchy beats and trivial lyrics, and people cannot get enough of it. I must admit that I (unfortunately) sometimes listen to these guys myself. Read More...
Classics Corner
In this (hopefully) weekly column, I will attempt to introduce you, my dear readers, to some of the books which have had an impact on my life as a reader. I am titling this “Classics Corner” because, as a result of my course of study and lines of interest, I have mostly read classical literature. However, I will occasionally throw in something contemporary just to mix things up a bit. Read More...
