3. Trojan of the Year

Ever since 1927, TIME magazine has announced its Person of the Year, which features and profiles a person, a group, an idea, or an object that “for better or for worse… has done the most to influence the events of the year.”

We, the writers of The Station, are proud to announce that before Christmas break, we will feature our own “Trojan of the Year.” The process is simple. For on week, we will gather nominees as submitted by you, the students, faculty, and staff of Derry Area High School. Once the poll closes, we will gather all nominees and a reader’s poll will be created. Please know that the poll winner does not decide the selection, but it will help the student writers to make a decision.

To nominate someone or something for the Trojan of the Year, please click on the Trojan of the Year page or nominate on Instagram @da_station.

(CNN) – Stemming from the global chip shortage, video game consoles this year are particularly hard to come by.

More than a year after their initial launches, Sony’s PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Microsoft’s high-end Xbox offering, the Series X, are still difficult to find. The more recently launched Nintendo Switch OLED model, which launched in October 2021, is even harder to find on shelves and online. Restocks of the devices sell out in minutes, and one incident in Harris County, Texas, even resulted in an armed robbery attempt when a 19-year-old man tried to sell his PS5 to a man he met online.

Do you have a PS5 or Series X? If you do, play the lottery.
