Mid-Term Mania!

What is Real?

As students prepare for mid-terms next week, we want to remind everyone to be careful and cautious about the information available. With all the buzz on "fake news" it has never been more important to make sure you are checking for reliability and accuracy in all of your sources. Just because it is printed does not make it true!! Here are a few sources to help discern the fake from the facts!
