The biannual newsletter brings the reader the latest information on new courses, the activities of other independent study students, the honor roll, and recent graduates. The newsletter also profiles a teacher, includes a section for UNL Independent Study High School pen pals, and features articles from the principal, the academic advisers, and other contributors. Students are encouraged to submit original poetry or short stories, pictures, or information about themselves for publication.
