Working to keep the Salt Lake great

By Tennie Davis
May 04, 2023 12:00 AM
My senior year of high school, my friends and I went out to the salt flats of the Great Salt Lake to watch an April sunset. We danced around on the crusted crystal salt, chasing clouds of brine flies and staring in awe at the sun, resting complete and red on the dusty pink horizon. I wore my favorite shoes that day, and the salt got into them in a real stubborn way. Despite my best scrubs, the shoes were forever altered, forever salted.

The state of sociality: A post-lockdown look at friendship and community

By Tennie Davis
May 01, 2023 12:00 AM
A few weekends ago, I was sitting in the backseat of a 2014 Honda CR-V, next to a tall and swaying stack of backordered National Geographic and GQ magazines brought along for collaging. I listened as some half-friends, half-acquaintances debriefed the party they went to the night before.

Traveling as a young adult

By Sicily Stanton
May 01, 2023 12:00 AM
Planning a trip to Europe in the middle of the semester right around midterms was probably not Emilee Hastings’ brightest idea, not to mention with such a tight budget, but after she had put her mind to visiting Ireland, she wouldn’t let anything stop her.

Judaism, conversion and The Church of Jesus Christ

By Sicily Stanton
February 08, 2023 12:00 AM
When you are born into a faithful religion with customs, practices and beliefs, it’s not just a religion with a basic understanding of who God is and what the point of life may be, it’s a culture, a family — religion becomes your way of life.

Listening to the women of The Church of Jesus Christ

By Andrea Zapata Mejia
February 08, 2023 12:00 AM
Never would I have thought that with so many of the ongoing conversations regarding The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and Heavenly Mother, women and the priesthood, and gender inequality, a research article would prove that certain Latter-day Saint women don’t feel oppressed in the Church. In Mormon Women at the Crossroads, Caroline Kline proves exactly that point.

A new perspective on faith

By Brigham Tomco
February 06, 2023 12:00 AM
There are moments when the movie of your life is shattered by the stinging blow of perspective. When, like a third-person narrator, you are made to witness your own misunderstandings and misplaced assumptions. When you recognize with stunned lucidity that you are not who you thought you were, and that you may not have chosen the choices that define you.
