    Write better investigatory articles

    this is an interesting topic, and props to the students (especially Ailea) who were willing to go on record with their quotes, but article's organization is terrible.

    At first I was puzzled as to why the piece focused on sophomores, who basically have only coursework to do. Then I realized they're the only ones who have enough free time to be interviewed for an inane Prince article.
