“Bruh man I am truly inspired by your article. I find this type of behavior happens on many college campuses. This is horrible and I truly despise anyone male or female who feels the need to inflict pain onto any individual especially the one they claim to love. If that individual makes you angry to where you feel you have to hit him or her, then you really don’t need to be with them so let them go.”

“I think it is a shame that the boys basketball team is not as important to your sports editor than cross country and bowling. These are sports that no one cares about and no wants to go and watch. Put the -ball team ahead of these unimportant sports.”

“You know what? At this particular time, I really needed to hear that. You’re so right! People try to get in your mind and make you loose focus of all the things you work hard for. Some people think that after I got my degree, I changed. Yes, I did change; I changed for the better. I learned that if I don’t take care of myself and do what’s best for me, I’m the one that will have to suffer for that. Preach on, Brother!”

“Thank you Ms. Bannister for that piece you wrote in regards to the education (or lack thereof) here in La. I am an educator of over 30 years and now more than ever we need the communities’ help. These kids need all of the support they can get. Although your editorial was one of a serious nature, it had its humorous side, and I must say that you kept me reading. Are you sure that you don’t want to be a teacher? We need them with your thinking. Great Job Ms. Bannister, Great Job Southern Digest!”
