During tonight's Academic Achievement Night, the Logan library will host their first ever Adopt-A-Book event.

Carla Colburn, Logan's librarian, said she would like to emphasize how admirable donating is because it would help the library grow.

Contributing in this event is easy. First, students either choose a book from a list provided by the library or let the librarian choose. Second, the student sends the library $15, then has their name placed on a donation book plate.

The first semester of Logan Live seemed longer than the required five minutes, inciting annoyance from many teachers.

“It bothers me," said Robert Eppler, a Logan math teacher. "It takes away from class time, but to be completely honest, it gives me time to get class ready and I take advantage of the extra time to get stuff ready.”

Although many other teachers seem to think otherwise and actually favor and don’t mind the extra accidentally added minutes.

Humanitarian Assistance Club gathered in Colt Court yesterday to raise awareness about human enslavement and trafficking.

The idea, “Free2Play”, allows students to write onto white boards about anything that the students feel they do not have the freedom to do. The student would take a picture, which would be added together in conjunction with the many other pictures, in order to concoct a collage to be hung around the school.

“Free2Play” is an attempt at spreading awareness about human trafficking. Senior Tom Hu, who is president of the club, said that he derived the idea from a past student at Logan. In addition, many other college campuses across the nation have done the same thing.

From wikipedia:
Mary Violet Leontyne Price (born February 10, 1927, in Laurel, Mississippi in the United States) is an American operatic soprano. She is best known for the title role of Verdi's Aida. Born in the segregated Deep South, she rose to international fame during a period of racial change in the 1950s and 60s, and was the first African-American to become a leading prima donna at the Metropolitan Opera.

Watch Leontyne Price sing "O Patria Mia," free from YouTube.
