A note: we are not astrologists. Neither are we particularly connected with our own charts. But, for all you stargazers out there, we have put together some very loosely informed horoscopes to get you thinking about new ways to connect with your body. Aries: March 21–April 19 As the most fiery of the bunch, […]
It’s strange how a month can feel both fast and slow at the same time. When I first walked through Usdan just over a month ago, past the excited cardinal, I couldn’t have imagined how quickly time would fly. Looking back now, it’s almost unbelievable that weeks have passed since I first arrived on campus […]
Let me cut to the chase: The vice presidential debate between Governor Tim Walz and Senator JD Vance will not decide the winner of the 2024 presidential election. The most notable moment in vice presidential debate history came in 1988 when Michael Dukakis’ running mate, Lloyd Bentsen (D-TX), lamented a pretentious Dan Quayle (R-IN), who […]
The world largely holds the belief that Patrick Bateman, a yuppie serial killer from the book “American Psycho,” is not a character that you are meant to relate to. As “American Psycho” was closely adapted into a movie that maintains the same plot and characters, you would assume that this statement applies to both the book […]
In celebration of World Contraception Day this past Friday, we have created a basic guide to the exciting world of contraception. Your latex allergy is no excuse. We have compiled a list of ways to prevent pregnancy that think outside the box of condoms. If you are doctor’s office averse, there are many methods of […]
What is happening in Ukraine concerns you too. That was the message that Ukraine and Ukrainians at home and abroad have been striving to communicate to the foreign public for years now. To debunk the appealing but false notion that Russia will stop at the territories that it occupied in the East and South of […]
In his memoir from 2019, author Bret Easton Ellis used pages upon pages of material to talk about his love for the neo-noir thriller “American Gigolo” (1980) (his love is obvious from reading any of his novels). However, the year of its release, a different film captured Bret Easton Ellis’s and America’s attention. “That fall, […]
Two weekends ago, I had the opportunity to go to the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. Kripalu is located in Stockbridge, MA (about an hour and a half from campus) and is named after Swami Kripalvananda, a yoga master and teacher who devoted himself to 8–10 hours of yoga and meditation per day—a little […]
Constitution Day was last Tuesday, Sept. 17, a holiday that you have probably never heard of. It is held on the anniversary of the day that 39 delegates to the 1787 Constitutional Convention signed the Constitution in Philadelphia. The holiday was formally created in 2004 (replacing the holiday of Citizenship Day) through Senator Robert Byrd’s […]
With Wesleyan football’s first home game against Tufts this past weekend, we wanted to set the record straight: you can cum before your next big game, match, or tournament without negatively affecting your athletic performance. The myth that engaging in sexual activity before sports can alter one’s performance has been around since the Olympics were […]
