Born on the coast, Ana Kistler has lived all around North Carolina.
Opinion | Located in the heart of Durham, Northgate mall has always served as a social hub. But as developers plan to tear down the mall and build offices in its place, everyone has their own idea of how the property should be used. 
Opinion | In my health class last year, sex education mattered. Until it didn’t. “We’ll get to it next week,” our teacher would say. Eventually, that changed to “We’ll get to it.” We never got around it. My health teacher no longer teaches at Riverside. However, after researching North Carolina’s sex ed curriculum for an investigative project last semester, I learned that my class wasn’t the only one that didn’t meet the state’s standards.
