Q: I’m still figuring out my friend group. Some people seem nice, but I’m not sure if they’re actually going to be my ‘forever’ friends. How can I tell the difference? I don’t want to get too invested in people who might not stick around, but I also don’t want to miss out on friendships that could actually last.
The Tufts Community Union Senate met on Sunday to discuss recent and upcoming events, recap its Dining Survey initiative and hear the final Allocations Board requests of the semester, including an appeal for funding from the Tufts Solar Vehicle Project.
In a March 6 social media post, the SEIU 509 Tufts University Graduate Workers Union shared that the Departments of English, Biomedical Engineering and Chemistry all attempted to violate the union’s contract this year.
Has anyone else ever dealt with the niche kind of shock that comes from watching the “Frozen Worlds” episode of “Our Planet?” One minute David Attenborough’s soothing British voice is showing you the cute penguins as they reunite with their families, and the next you’re watching walruses fall off cliffs to their deaths due to rising sea levels taking over their habitats.
When asked what I’m studying, I normally shrug and noncommittally say “English.” I want to make it clear that I’m aware it’s a somewhat romantic pursuit, set apart from the new standard of preprofessional studies and STEM obsessions that have spread throughout the undergraduate world. It’s easy to interrogate myself and try to identify the point of studying English literature. I find myself searching for an answer that feels like it’s moving further and further away in an increasingly artificial world.

Welcome back to Bottom of the Ninth! We are now almost two weeks into the 2026 MLB season, and for many fans, including myself, overreactions are running rampant. With over four months to go until the postseason, it’s important to remember that there’s a lot of baseball left to play and plenty of time for your favorite team to turn things around.
Tufts students joined more than eight million people around the country to protest the Trump administration on March 28 as part of the third No Kings rally. The day marked the largest protest in American history with roughly 3,300 rallies nationwide, including 162 in Massachusetts and over 180,000 attendees at the protest on Boston Common.
As Boston enters April, though there are hints of warming weather, a more significant change is rain replacing the continuous snow. While we trek through the muddy paths uphill and contemplate whether to bring an umbrella to class, the sky overhead is shifting through different hues. Ancient East Asian potters noticed these nuanced changes and incorporated them into their works. So today we’ll be observing the celadon glaze widely used in East Asian ceramicware, which is reminiscent of the purity of jade and the mistiness of April rain.
Worth Going Broke?: Millennial bagel spot: Your Tufts Daily Briefing
Just months after achieving the best record in club history, which earned them the 2025 Supporters’ Shield (a trophy awarded to the club with the highest total points in the regular season), the Philadelphia Union find themselves at rock bottom of the league table.
With the Oscars closing out the awards season earlier this month, one of the most heated controversies leading up to the ceremony was Timothée Chalamet’s infamous comment about ballet and opera. I stumbled across his statement in the many clips and videos cut from his Variety & CNN Town Hall conversation with Matthew McConaughey. There were thousands of comments and online discussions about his remarks, with the majority criticizing Chalamet. However, upon taking a closer look at the video, as well as Chalamet’s Oscar campaign for his film “Marty Supreme” (2025), I feel as if the internet’s reactions toward him are coming from a place other than simple criticism.
My roommate hears it far too often. It usually comes sometime after midnight, when I’m in bed, scrolling instead of sleeping. When I blurt it out, she tends to either laugh at me or immediately agree, blaming me for the suddenly developing craving.

On March 22, 2026, President Donald Trump wrote a letter to Basil Russo, national president of the Italian Sons and Daughters of America. In this letter, Trump announced that a statue of Christopher Columbus, gifted by the organization, would be displayed at the White House. He referred to Columbus as “the original American hero” as well as “one of the most gallant and visionary men to ever walk the face of the Earth.”
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Education Secretary Linda McMahon announced on March 5 that 53 medical schools, including the Tufts University School of Medicine, had signed on to Kennedy’s federal nutrition training initiative.
Welcome back, dear readers! With the almost 70-degree weather, you may be tempted to shy away from soup this week — after all, it is a warm substance often enjoyed during the winter months. But we must challenge ourselves to push back against such silly ideas, for soup is far too wonderful a thing to be enjoyed during only part of the year. Why should the weather dictate our soup consumption and therefore our happiness? It is with the same energy and enthusiasm of a Sink patron ordering an iced coffee as snow falls outside that we made this week’s soup.
The Daily is known for covering news related to Tufts students, staff, family, and friends. But we feel that there’s one crucial group missing from that coverage: the geese.Every winter, the Medford/Somerville campus is bombarded by countless flocks of Canada geese. This time around, some of the Daily’s reporters decided it was time we give them the microphone.
