Events Editor and occasional sports fan Isabel Sepúlveda didn’t know if she would ever fill the void in her heart after the end of basketball season (and Camille Zimmerman’s graduation).

Our gallant and fearless GSSC Bureau Chief Andrew Chee braved the torrential downpour to give y’all the rundown of breaking news from the General Studies Student Council!
