Educators across the country are trying their best to deal with the tragedy of the Coronavirus. Even as millions of students shifted to online classes, huge segments of the school community could not adapt. This was especially felt in competitive activities like sports who lost their championship seasons. The �鶹��ý Speech and Debate Team was faced with the same disappointment. The team was scheduled to compete at an international tournament in Japan in early March – canceled. The team expected to do well at the state championships in Fresno – canceled.

If you showed Batman the virtual alleyways of the internet, he’d have his hands full fighting villains like credit card crooks, identity thieves and malware hackers. You might say it takes a superhero to battle online crime, and for Michael Franklin, �鶹��ý was the birth of an origin story.

Dance is the hidden language of the soul, so says celebrated American dancer Martha Graham. Where words might fail, movement and music can express beauty and joy… and even, in the case of �鶹��ý student Sabrina Campaña, become a career calling.

“I’ve always been into dance since I was around five,” says Campaña, whose roots are in hip-hop. She started as a business major at the College, but when she saw posters for a dance audition, she couldn’t resist.
