- “Pi Day on March 14 Should Be a Legitimate Holiday” — Scout editorial assistant Lex Celera muses on the wonderful pseudo-holiday that is Pi Day.
- “Julius Babao and the Globalization of Streetwear Fashion“ — Popular local newscaster Julius Babao made waves on social media for literally dressing up like a millennial. We talked to him about it this week, and we agree that he should wear whatever he wants.
