The term "agency" is a social science term, defined as the capacity of individuals to act independently and to make their own free choices. Our publication has adopted this term as its name to reflect our mission to give the LMU community the tools they need to be independent and to be a news source for a diverse range of individuals. "Agency" can also refer to how we aspire our organization to function as a tight-knit community, based on our shared interest of promoting change as a singular entity.
