Dear Editor: We are very pleased to see Michael Jones February 3rd article “True Wolverine. It’s On Us.” and his challenge to UVU students to live up to the principles of the “It’s On Us” campaign. True Wolverine is a great tradition for all the reasons listed by Mr. Jones, but the events described by […]

Sean Stoker | Editor-at-large Student fees—the expenses for each individual class after tuition—are a necessary evil that helps keep our school running and pay for course materials. We wanted to see what our fellow Wolverines thought about these charges, and what they knew about what they were paying. Lorraine Brimhall Are your student fees too […]
