As of August 2025, NC will initiate the first-ever pilot pathway for students who desire to enter the field of pilotry. With this four-level course, students will learn the basics and physics of a plane and eventually, they will advance to learn to fly the plane itself. This pathway will open doors for young individuals and add a special pilot trainee diploma seal to their college resume — ultimately showcasing their post-high school preparedness for future endeavors.

Three insects, each producing a nearly identical sound, but key details set them apart. Between flies, bees and wasps, each one creates a unique buzzing sound, each at a different frequency and therefore an incrementally different tone. Overall, bees win the prize for the only tolerable sound out of the three.

Which buzz is best?

River Allsen, Reporter • March 31, 2025

Out of three insects, bees, flies or wasps, each one produces a unique sound. Considering the tone, tolerability and pitch of each, the fact...
