Race For A Reason raises money for good causes

Apr. 30

This past weekend, the Ohio Health Race For A Reason event took place. There were multiple different races you could pick to compete in, and competitors got to chose the place, or their "reason" they wanted their money to be donated to. Organizers of the race say this is the best turnout they've had since COVID, and they love seeing people be passionate about what they're doing.

Diet Compliance: Students with celiac crave greater accommodations

By Alex Imwalle | Apr. 25

Ally Ginder, a sophomore with celiac disease, said she can count the dining hall meals she feels comfortable eating on one hand. “When you have like four meals that you just rotate, I got kind of tired of that, so I would lose like 10 pounds in like a week and a half,” Ginder said. This documentary does a deep dive into Ohio University Culinary Services to find out what extent Ohio University accommodates for students with celiac disease on campus.

Cherry Bombs reinvent the meaning of baseball

By Audrianna Reed and Mallory Rickel | Apr. 24

The Cherry Bombs, an all women's baseball team here at Ohio University, is truly making history as they are the only women's baseball team in Ohio. The team has been around for four season now, and the creator of the team says she came up with the idea because of her love for baseball and women's sports. A player says she joined the Cherry Bombs because she liked that it's breaking gender boundaries and stereotypes in the sports world.

Intramural sports offer an outlet for OU students

By Mallory Rickel | Apr. 22

Intramural sports at Ohio University are a great way for students to play sports they enjoy and meet people, while not being too competitive. Students say they also enjoy it because it gives them an outlet from classes and school work. To play, just gather a group of friends and sign your team up, or you can sign up as a free agent and be placed randomly on a team.

Sunset Shelter Project fosters hope for those in need

By Michael Dorwaldt and Audrianna Reed | Apr. 21

The struggle of housing insecurity has been an ongoing problem in the Appalachian region due to a lack of shelter and resources for those in need. To combat this issue, HAPCAP put together the Sunset Shelter Project, which is a community initiative to turn the Sunset Motel on Columbus Road into a temporary housing shelter. Many local organizations, Athens community members and Ohio University students came together to help make a difference with this project.

Booty Candy explores identities of black, queer people in America

By Michael Dorwaldt , Ranjini Shank and Hayley Mitchell | Apr. 20

Vibrancy Theatre put on Booty Candy last week. Booty Candy explores the theme of growing up as a black and queer person in America. The show is known for its comedy, while still highlighting the complexities of identity in black culture. An actress in Booty Candy says she loves the play becuase it spreads the message that you can't separate being black and queer, and it should be celebrated.
