Wow.
This may sound a little cliché (OK, maybe it’s very cliché), but it seems like just yesterday that I was sitting down to write my first editor’s note of the semester. Now, nearly four months later, the weather has turned from sunshine to snow and I am putting together my final issue as editor of Jayplay. It’s been a crazy roller coaster of a learning experience, and I hope you’ve enjoyed reading each issue as much as I’ve enjoyed helping to create them.
Next semester, associate editor Alex Garrison will be taking the Jayplay reins, and you can expect more of the same insightful views on relationships, nightlife, health and everything else that pertains to the lives of KU students.
We’ve got some great content for you this week. If you’re looking for a cold-weather alternative to that frozen margarita, check out Patrick’s story on page 5 about winterizing your liquor cabinet. Ever wonder how you got so head-over-heals attracted to your latest crush? Read Hailey’s story on page 8 about pheromones, and how they could contribute to the way we interact with each other. Want a good laugh? Wescoe Wit is there for you on page 13.
As the semester winds to a close, the pressure of impending final exams, and deadlines for essays and projects can sometimes be too much to handle. If you find yourself in that situation, take a little time to relax and read through the semester’s final issue of Jayplay.
