Inspecting the car’s underside, junior Drake Malcolm tries to pry out a brake component. While collaborating with another student, Malcolm attempted to direct his classmate to where the component is. “It’s pretty simple,” Malcolm said. “Of course, taking the rotor off is pretty simple. If it’s a drum brake system, it’s a little bit more complicated; you have to take apart a bunch of hydraulic systems, and other stuff, but overall brake jobs are relatively easy.”

The genre of K-pop has spread across the globe, but Western and K-pop musicians are held to much different standards. K-pop idols are subject to harsh expectations like having pale skin, no acne and perfect bodies, while western artists typically have more freedom in terms of the clothes they wish to wear or the persona they project. “K-pop artists have it somewhat harder than Western artists,” sophomore Jaidelyn Wiseman said. “They both share similar experiences, but K-pop idols don’t really have the freedom of dating, their schedules, or how much they work and overall I just think that K-pop idols face a lot of harsher beauty standards and expectations than western artists.”
