After President Donald Trump made the executive decision to drop airstrikes in Baghdad that killed Iran’s top general, Qasem Soleimani, Americans started to speculate that Trump intended to start a conflict with Iran in order to distract Americans from his impeachment trials. “I used the game Jenga as inspiration for this political cartoon. The tower is supposed to represent the country’s stability and that’s why the American character carefully makes a move to bring impeachment into the picture. When Trump sees this he gets angry and decides to ruin the game by taking ‘revenge’ and taking out a block that would make the tower come crashing down,” NC Chant cartoonist Luis Ponce said.

As seniors prepare for final college decisions the pressure of competitiveness among students reigns an all-time high. Some individuals may feel overwhelmed, insecure, and unsure about the college process while others maintain composure while boasting and bragging. Those individuals who do not know what they want to study may choose to enroll in a smaller institution for a multitude of reasons such as, financial cost, the transferring process, accessibility, and resources. On the contrary, other students may not see the benefits and degrade and shame one’s decision about enrolling in a smaller school.

Each pair of running shoes gathered here will eventually travel about three hundred miles before being replaced, providing thousands of hours of healthy exercise. Running purely for physical benefit doesn’t provide the only reason someone might want to put on their running shoes, however. An increasing amount of studies show that exercise provides several mental benefits as well.

With the holiday season’s arrival each year, people often skip over Thanksgiving festivities and move straight along to Christmas time. Radio stations play a part in this as well, playing Christmas music instantly after Halloween ends. Thanksgiving songs consistently receive no acknowledgment, as no musician desires the need to produce anything of that nature: until now.
The song, produced by The Chant’s Media Manager Nia Simone-Sherwood and Photo Editor Haley Kish, ties into their own experience of the true essence of Thanksgiving.
