Dear North Wind, I thought he was different

Dear North Wind, I thought he was different

North Wind Staff September 30, 2021
Just remember: take care of yourself. Buy a fish or a beetle, sneak in a pet chipmunk. Maybe watch a good movie, drink some apple juice, cry in the shower, listen to the “Phineas and Ferb” soundtrack... whatever floats your boat. Just don’t go back to this Tinder boy. You’re worth more than that.
Dear North Wind, how do I get over my toxic ex?

Dear North Wind, how do I get over my toxic ex?

North Wind Staff September 10, 2021
We ‘broke up’ at the end of last semester, but were on and off again over the summer since we could barely go two days without talking to each other. A week ago she came to visit in person and it ended in a huge fight; we didn’t even say goodbye before she left.

Open letter—NMU, commit to carbon neutrality

Ryan Stock January 22, 2021
In the last few years, NMU has doubled down on its commitment to sustainability by launching the Sustainability Advisory Council, the Eco-Reps, additional degree and certificate programs, new courses, new faculty hires, and new partnerships and collaborations.

According to the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education, NMU has moved from “Bronze” to “Silver” status when measured in their STARS framework assessing sustainability performance. This designation is a significant accomplishment. And yet, NMU’s sustainable solutions remain woefully inadequate to tackle the present climate crisis.
