We at the Eighth Page are big on the spirit of both giving and receiving. With that, we tend to favor the receiving end, so here is our newly updated list of things we are thankful for:
White privilege – and Asian!
The ability to peacefully protest
INTENTIONAL diversity (you gotta know what you are getting yourself into)
Winston Gong’s ’26 constructive criticism
Revocable consent (FRIES)
Pragun Seth ’25
Ned Blackhawk’s enlightenment
Teachers with fun names that oddly suit them (makes me feel like i’m in Harry Potter :))
Gavin Newsom for once (we should redistrict the clusters so that all of the hula hooping abilities aren’t concentrated in Abbot iykwim)
Squanto (wouldn’t be here today without him)
Missionary (and much more) Rock
PAPS for keeping us safe from drugs, crime, and anyone without a blue card!
Electric Cars that make that harmonic noise
Ear, Nose, and Throat doctors
Jamaican Patois (for saving BVS once again)
The Kama Sutra (we at Andover would be lost without it)
