The last time I went to the Cheshire Bridge Waffle House, I arrived with a group of Wheel writers and editors at around 1:30 a.m. on a Saturday night. We met a man around the age of 65 who had recently been clubbing at a bar called “OPUS” across the street – not to be confused with the Online Pathway to University Students. After instructing us to take a series of “selfies” – one serious, one sassy, one smiling – our friend asked us to form a huddle around him, put one hand in each and yell out the word “love!” Any place where I can meet this kind of person at 1:30 a.m. is a place I am happy to be.

The Emory Wheel was founded in 1919 and is currently the only independent, student-run newspaper of Emory University. The Wheel publishes weekly on Wednesdays during the academic year, except during University holidays and scheduled publication intermissions.

The Wheel is financially and editorially independent from the University. All of its content is generated by the Wheel’s more than 100 student staff members and contributing writers, and its printing costs are covered by profits from self-generated advertising sales.
