The Mission of the Houghton STAR is to preserve and promote the values of dialogue, transparency and integrity that have characterized Houghton University since its inception. This is done by serving as a medium for the expression of student thought and as a quality publication of significant campus news, Houghton area news, and events.
The opinions and views expressed in the STAR do not necessarily reflect the opinions and views of Houghton University or the Wesleyan Church (our sponsoring denomination).
