Welcoming The POPEn Ent. Village Members and Future Members Alike into 2026. We've Got to Catch Up Like French Fry Toppings

I'm starting the new year with so many new tools in our toolbox in order to make sure that the construction of OUR Village is given the best opportunities possible.

One of the things that I have been doing is majoring in journalism for the last two years which has given me the chance to update what it is that we had going with OUR stories. With that being said, I plan on updating a lot of our content that's in text.

What I plan on doing over the next couple of months (Spring 2026 semester) is building up a few things that is going to make sure that our voices are heard, and actions come about from our words.

I wanted to share a couple of videos from the last events that I attended to show you how we the opportunity to share like never before.
