A quote attributed to Sir Francis Bacon goes, “Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.” We read and we discuss; it is through this process we create and expand knowledge continuously.
It is our hope with this, the Forum section of The BG News, that you take the opportunity to contribute to this process of learning and opinion making and challenging, for yourself and the community at large.
We all have opinions; they exist as facts of humanity. We regularly play with notions regarding politics, relationships, communities, ethics, pop culture—anything and everything.
We read and discuss a lot of things amongst ourselves and our peers daily. It is here, Forum, that we invite you share with people outside of your immediate groups.
It is our view here at The BG News that open discourse is absolutely vital to the freedoms we value in our homeland.
There are so many perspectives here in Bowling Green, but yours is assuredly unique, and we truly want to hear your thoughts on current events, popular (and unpopular) opinions, life lessons and values. The more perspective available to the community, the greater ends can be conceived and achieved.
Aside from writing full blown columns, you can always write letters to me, the editor. These can be little musings on something a columnist discussed, or questions asking them to expound on a certain topic, or whatever you like—again, anything and everything.
To broaden our understandings, we seek out those who think about similar topics, and we aim to be a source for this as well. Reading what your fellow citizens have to say is just as much of a contribution to the community as anything else.
We strive to represent all voices we can, and we hope for that to includes yours.
