Admittedly, I am the first to roll my eyes and scoff at literature of the ‘don’t worry, be happy’ genre. There is nothing more vexing than being told to calm down during moments of intense anxiety. For that reason, I typically steer clear of any media that encourages us to ‘cheer up.’

The Tufts Community Union Senate debated an appeal on supplementary funding and broader bylaws changes during their meeting on Sunday.
Parsnip. Magnanimous. Sepulcher. This could be the beginning of a particularly esoteric New York Times Connections puzzle, but it is also how I chose to begin this week’s column. By selecting and recording arbitrary words that popped into my mind, I demarcated this piece of writing as a piece of writing; I began a series of words that followed from this obscure beginning and, taking this series in sum, I thus constructed a unified column upon the parsnip-laden ground. This is the raw power possessed by my first words.
One of the seven core principles of conservatism is the commitment to the rule of law. It’s a principle that ensures stability, predictability and fairness — the very conditions under which societies flourish and individuals thrive. Hand in hand with this is another value conservatives proudly uphold: the pursuit of economic growth and wealth accumulation through a free market economy. These principles intertwine because without a robust legal system that regulates the market, the ultimate goal of profit cannot be achieved.
In 2000, the United States declared measles eradicated in the country due to the development of a vaccine. Yet, recent data has shown a measles resurgence in the United States with an outbreak in New York in 2019 and a larger outbreak this year in Texas and New Mexico.
The Tufts men’s lacrosse team extended their perfect season and continued their dominance in the NESCAC with a 16–11 win over No. 16 Middlebury. On a dreary Saturday afternoon in Medford, the No. 1 ranked Jumbos capped off a spirited Senior Day, dismantling the Panthers early and picking apart their transition defense while overpowering the Panthers with feeds to the crease.
In songwriting, emotional transparency is often expected –– but it is not always earned. However, Lauren Presley stands out for how freely she reveals her inner world. The Texas-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter makes a bold entrance with her debut EP “Hanging In The Balance,” which is out today — a project that reads more like a diary cracked open than an introduction into the alternative and dark pop scene.

The International Olympic Committee just released the event program for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, and it’s official: there will be a mixed event in artistic gymnastics! Gymnastics is following in the footsteps of other core Olympic events like swimming and figure skating, adding a medal event where men and women compete together. The specifics haven’t been shared yet, but what’s known is that it won’t expand the quota — the event will include athletes already in the Games.
While shooting his senior thesis project, first-time filmmaker Mitchell Brown encountered a problem no screenwriting class could have prepared him for. Brown’s story — a psychological thriller about a father trying to reconnect with his family while coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder — relied heavily on windows. More specifically, the character’s compulsions to fiddle with and adjust the windows. However, when the team arrived to shoot at an Airbnb in Malden, the windows had been sealed shut by the owner.
For more than 60 years, the Jackson Jills have been arranging, singing and performing at Tufts. The Jills were named after Cornelia Maria Jackson, who was the namesake of Jackson College, Tufts’ counterpart for female students at the time of its founding. The name stuck after the schools merged in 1980. Today, the Jills continue to honor their history while looking for new ways to innovate their sound.
This past Saturday, the most anticipated matchup in Division III women’s lacrosse took place in Middlebury, Vt. as the then undefeated No. 2 Tufts traveled to take on the No. 1 Middlebury College. Winning the last three NCAA titles, Middlebury is the only obstacle standing in the way of Tufts dominating the division with an undefeated record this season and now 64-game win streak. The last time that the Middlebury team lost was May 8, 2022 against Tufts in the NESCAC Championship.

On Monday, Tufts issued a declaration supporting a lawsuit filed by several universities against the Department of Energy over its decision to implement a 15% cap on indirect costs for existing and future research grants to universities and colleges. The Department of Energy announced its decision on Friday.
On April 4, U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley ordered a permanent injunction on the National Institutes of Health, preventing the cuts on indirect medical research costs from taking effect nationwide. However, four days later, the United States Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees the NIH, filed a Notice of Appeal. The case is now in the Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.
Last Tuesday, the Denver Nuggets informed their championship coach Mike Malone and general manager Calvin Booth that they were both fired. Let me repeat that again, the Nuggets gutted the two most important decision-makers in their organization — the week before the playoffs.
On April 4, I was co-moderating a discussion on risks and art at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University for the event “Arts and Society: Dialogues.” I was looking at my phone and going over the sample questions to ask the participants when I received a text from my mom saying, “We were outside with your brother and our dog, the explosion felt far but the ground was shaking.” Momentarily, I tracked back my thoughts to before the event. Right before the discussion, I saw a notification that there was an air raid alert in Kryvyi Rih, possibly due to the missile carriers being launched in Russia. I had a feeling that this was not a precautionary alert, yet never in a million years would I assume that the attack would be that deadly.
