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.

Yet again, the Wesleyan community is haunted by campus safety alerts after a Bennet Hall break-in was reported last Friday. This not only induces fear but begs the question of whether campus is safe for us students. I think we could do better, and I think these are some ways we can make our campus […]
Last year, Wesleyan University experienced a surge of student activism, particularly in reaction to the Israel-Hamas War. Debate on campus about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is unlikely to cease this semester due to the Board of Trustees’ plan to vote on divestment from corporations profiteering from the war. Concurrent with the board’s planned vote on divestment is the […]

Do debates really matter when it comes to the outcome of an election? Generally not. For every Joe Biden (“We finally beat Medicare!”), Rick Perry (“Oops”), or George H.W.
