By Cooper Adkins, Opinion Editor Writing and working for The Georgetonian has been one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences of my college career.

By Katie Swanson, Staff Writer One of the most popular days in Kentucky is the first Saturday of May. This is no other than Derby Day. It has been a crazy ride to get here.

By Triniti Robinson, Staff Writer When parents see their children drawing on walls, typically, their reaction is not a good one. They probably scream and cry on the inside at the mess they now have to clean up. One could imagine Lauren Albensi’s parents had the same reaction; however, when Lauren grew up to pursue art, they now understand why she made such a mess as a child....

By Kobie Wessling, Staff Writer After a historically bad season, the Kentucky Wildcats have made a few changes and have added two new assistants to their men’s basketball coaching staff this morning.

By Heath Petty, Staff Writer The NFL draft was last Thursday, and with the excitement every NFL franchise has after the draft, let's recap what went down. The Jacksonville Jaguars had the first pick in the draft and to no one's surprise, they selected Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence.

By Lauren Parkinson, A&E Editor The live theatre industry has taken a serious hit this past year, and Georgetown's own theatre group has not been spared. However, the Maskrafters, it has been reported, are very good at improvisation. This school year, rather than simply forgo any projects or shows at all, the Maskrafters decided to shoot two separate short film projects, and they will be available for streaming before the semester is over!...

By Tyler Evans, Staff Writer Hollywood again has tried to make a movie out of the iconic video game series "Mortal Kombat." After a 90’s movie that was “okay” and its awful sequel, fans were excited and hopeful that this movie would be up to fans' expectations, especially with an “R” rating. The movie started out great with fights and a story that was akin to the source material, yet it went downhill from there....

By Holton Greear, Staff Writer Music is forever changing. But also, not really. Music is a healer and can help people through hard times, and music can also bring a wave of nostalgia about the good times. We are surrounded with it daily and don’t go a day without listening to it. You can also connect with people based upon the different artists you enjoy and create friendships you might never expect....

By Lorenzo Fede Pellone, Staff Writer On Tuesday, India reached 20 million COVID-19 cases as the second wave of COVID-19 is sweeping the country and, tragically, killing many people. The government reaction after this second wave of coronavirus is a second full lockdown, affecting everyone in the country.

By Dylan Pruitt, News Editor Four migrant women from Mexico and Central America are scheduled to be reunited with their children this week after being previously separated due to a 2018 policy that the Biden administration has started to dismantle.
