Finishing off Part 1 of Monday’s article, these are a few more players that could return to or join the Boston Red Sox next year.
Lately, country music has felt somewhat inescapable. Songs from Morgan Wallen’s new album hold multiple spots on the Billboard Hot 100 while echoes of a country twang have made their way into Sabrina Carpenter’s recent music. Country’s spreading influence is visible in Beyoncé’s Texan homecoming, Noah Kahan’s seemingly overnight fame or the success of Shaboozey’s hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy).” In a 2023 study on popular U.S. radio content, songs falling into the genre of country composed 41% (second highest to the grouped category of rock, alternative and indie) of music on the radio. That’s a percentage even higher than pop.
Medford School Committee candidates share platforms: Your Tufts Daily Weekly Roundup
Free agency is rapidly approaching in Major League Baseball, and after an impressive 2025 season, Boston Red Sox fans are eagerly waiting to see what additions will be made to Manager Alex Cora’s squad. The narrative surrounding the team has completely shifted — what was once uncertainty has turned into optimism about the franchise’s future, all within just six months.
By the time visitors queued beneath the Louvre’s glass pyramid on Wednesday morning, the Apollo Gallery had already been struck. The museum had been open for about 30 minutes when a team of thieves in yellow construction vests scaled a ladder truck, used angle grinders to cut through a window at the south end of the gallery and vanished within four minutes, leaving behind gloves, tools and walkie-talkies — and, near the Seine, the dented emerald crown of Empress Eugénie. The theft — which took place mere steps away from the untouched “Mona Lisa” — netted a total of eight royal jewels worth an estimated $102 million.
Only a few weeks ago, one of my roommates asked why people are calling President Donald Trump a “fascist.” My roommate wondered how, if American conservative ideals are so rooted in limited government oversight, free trade and the supposed ‘truth,’ Trump could ever be labeled as fascist. This made me think — are we too quick to judge, or should Trump’s tendencies really be flagged as the beginnings of a fascist regime?
Those of you who know me will understand that the 50% of my brain not occupied by food is concentrated on baseball (I know, scientists have already asked to study it). Most of the time, this arrangement isn’t productive — thinking about Trader Joe’s Buffalo Chicken Dip doesn’t help me when staring down a 3–2 count.
The Daily is conducting interviews with Medford School Committee candidates ahead of the municipal election on Nov. 4 where residents will be able to choose up to six candidates. This story will be updated with additional interviews as they are completed. All interviews have been edited for length and clarity.
Tufts field hockey faced Middlebury last Saturday in one of the most anticipated games of the season. Last year’s NCAA championship game saw the Jumbos fall 2–1 to the Panthers in a closely contested battle, though Tufts had beaten Middlebury during the regular season. Needless to say, the Jumbos entered this rematch with an extra chip on their shoulders against the defending champions.
The bitter memory of a homophobic stand-up routine continued to curdle in my mouth as I looked out into the street beside me. A few cars idled at the light, but the night was otherwise silent. Trolley Bus No. 8 was nowhere to be found. In a night already punctuated by poor jokes, this may have been the worst: my phone lay dead in my pocket — willingly discarded in the name of challenge — and my only guide home was a Soviet-era Russian–English dictionary, with pages 28, 31 and 79 dog-eared as an ingenious reminder of which buses I needed to take.
As the air turns crisp and bright leaves fall from the trees lining President’s Lawn, a familiar taste of cinnamon, maple and chai — and perhaps some notes of consumerism — fills the aisles of a fan-favorite grocery store: Trader Joe’s.
Tufts plans groups for orientation to foster community among first-years: Your Tufts Daily Briefing
LaVar Ball deserves credit for painstakingly molding his three sons, Lonzo, LiAngelo and LaMelo, into elite basketball players and celebrities from their earliest years. The three brothers became a sensation in 2016 at Chino Hills High School, and now two of them are established NBA players. The middle child is a rapper.
If you’ve walked through the Mayer Campus Center between 11:45 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., there’s no doubt you’ve heard Charli XCX blasting from the sink-shaped nook just to the right of the second-floor stairs. A warmly-lit hideaway in the normally fluorescent Campus Center, The Sink is the perfect spot to catch up with a friend or pretend to be studying — if you can find a table. Hordes of students line up to grab one of The Sink’s latest collaborative drinks or classic concoctions, like “Lucy in the Chai,” “Girl Grass” or “Blossom.”

Even the best dining halls at Tufts can only do so much, and, after over a month of the same options every day, I’m desperate for something new. (Sorry, Dewick-MacPhie Dining Center!) Even Hodgdon Food-on-the-Run, my beloved, can get tiring after having salads or Chipotle-style bowls for almost every meal during the week. As much as I want to get the most out of my meal swipes, there is no way I’m setting foot in a dining hall this weekend while my parents are in town.
One day at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts this past summer, fifth-year combined-degree student Clara Davis took a box of 10,000 photos of legs from her locker and laid them out like a mosaic on classroom tables. This is just one example of what a typical day could look like for a Tufts Summer Scholar. The Summer Scholar program is a 10-week program that allows rising juniors and seniors to conduct independent research projects on campus under the guidance of a faculty mentor.
