many people who are

persecuted because of

their words.”

my freedom to go to

practice, pray, and not be

persecuted for doing so,

for granted.”

Zachary Lee

don’t agree with the

government, you can still

directly contradict their

views safely.”

Alonzo Laston

because from an artistic

standpoint, one can

express their emotions,

feelings, and thoughts

without being restrained

by any higher power.”

Sydney Stokes

“Being able to wear

whatever I want, for

whatever occasion, and

not be oppressed.”

everyone is allowed to be

A GLIMPSE INTO THE LIVES OF EVERYDAY PEOPLE ON CAMPUS

BY ADELINE ROEPER

"So much of my high school and junior high, I hadn't felt

comfortable being completely myself. It's really powerful

and special when you get to feel comfortable with who you

are, and not worry what people think about what you do

with your hair, or your major, or your job. Once you feel

secure and you feel valid doing things your way it’s the

ultimate freedom."
