Looking around at the Global Education Expo two weeks ago, it was easy to see the important place Global Education holds for Concordia’s students, faculty and administrators, and many take for granted the numerous international programs the college offers. What most people on campus don’t realize, however, is how far the college has come in…
Over the past few years the Red River has meant many different things to Concordia College students: no class, sand bagging, displacement. This year a group of Concordia students and partners, the river keepers of Fargo Moorhead, hope to change this view of the river by engaging students in interfaith dialogue through service projects focusing…
“The Lion King” is still as magical as ever when it was revived and re-released in theaters Sept. 16 through the 25 in its new 3-D format. The original premier of “The Lion King” occurred in 1994, causing our generation to grow up watching it on the family room couch or with only hazy memories…
“Nothing beats a Disney classic” is what one movie-goer said after seeing “The Lion King” in brand new 3-D technology.

Many feel their gender is one of the few things considered for anything besides who their freshman roommate is or what dorm they are placed in. However, for the transgender student there are great…
This week, I had the good fortune to order my Cobber ring. For the next six to eight weeks due to shipping and handling, I will anxiously await a small, gold delivery. Being male and a bit of a classicist, it’s the first ring I’ve ever worn, and the only one I plan on wearing…
Okay Cobbers, it’s Friday. What do you want to be doing? Homework? I thought so. I mean, what else would a Cobber want to do? Okay, I jest, but in all honesty, we work incredibly hard at this school, and even if you don’t think you deserve a break, you probably do. If you cannot…
It’s officially that time of year again: sunrise isn’t until after 7:00, and it’s just going to get later. It’s cold out.
