Authenticity and location recipe for success

On 572 Main Street, Stroudsburg, PA is an authentic Mexican restaurant called EZ Taqueria, which has been increasing in popularity among students. They serve tasty Mexican dishes from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Recently, students have been going to the restaurant after school and extracurricular activities to spend time hanging out with friends. Having been there multiple times, I can say that the food is high quality and it is consistently tasty. For the amount of effort put into the food, it comes out fairly quickly. The restaurant provides a welcoming environment and vibrant atmosphere. The people there are accommodating and nice, even providing me with a free meal when I was struggling to pay. “Their food is really good and very authentic Mexican food which you can’t really find around Stroudsburg, but it’s really on the pricey side compared to other restaurants,” said Delany Jimenez ‘27.

Report: New York could save $1.3B by cutting packaging waste

ALBANY, N.Y. (NEXSTAR) — The environmental advocacy group Beyond Plastics released an analysis on a proposed state law to cut packaging waste on Wednesday.

Stopping the stigma

Treatment of neurodivergent people before proper research was conducted was atrocious. They were thrown into asylums, prisons, and treated as if they were crazy and many people aren’t educated on neurodivergence so many still think it’s  something to be cured.  With a new generation of change has come new narratives.   In the past Autism Speaks, an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) research center had approached ASD as a burden to be erased and treated.  In 2009 they  released a video in which autism was framed as a monster with autistic people being burdens to their environment.  Naturally the autistic community was appalled.  “We don’t want to be portrayed as burdens or objects of fear and pity,” said Ari Ne’eman, president of the Autistic Self-Advocacy Network according to Time.
