Contrary to what the title may portray, the only barbaric thing about Barbarian was how painfully boring it was to watch. This horror mystery movie was anything but scary. Barbarian follows a woman named Tess, played by Georgina Campbell, who comes to the city of Detroit for a job interview. When Tess arrives in Detroit, […]
Though the movie is called Smile, it had me anything but smiling during the entire film. This movie lives up to its genre, being horror/psychological thriller. Smile has a sense of constant eerie uneasiness. This film is not in your face with the jump scares; it takes its time scaring you and constantly keeping you […]

All the classes I enrolled in the semester do not permit the use of laptops in their class; instead, students are expected to jot down notes by hand in traditional […]
As the first somewhat regular semester ends, my perception of Monmouth University has changed since last year. I came to Monmouth University when it was all online with minimal to no hybrid classes. While the online format of Monmouth University for the years 2020 to 2021 was convenient, it was significantly lackluster. There were barely […]
An essential part of the classroom is the students, but possibly the critical part of the class is the professor teaching it. All professors have a different style of teaching, which may or may not fit the way you want to be taught. Some teachers like to give out PowerPoint slides for notes, while others […]
