Op-Ed: From abolishment to co-creation

By Khuyen Bui | September 13

I’ve been watching the unfolding drama on Pro Row during my undergrad career at Tufts, and I think it’s almost as good as Games of Thrones (2011–). You have the Establishment vs the Rebel, engaging in a lengthy attritional war. Since last year, the Rebel launched a massive attack that devastated the Establishment. It’s unclear whether the latter is defeated or now plotting a counterattack. What an epic story; it makes my walk along the Row on a Friday night even better than a Broadway show.

By Khuyen Bui | March 15

You may have heard of Deja Vu, but have you heard of its alter ego, Vu Deja? If Deja Vu is the feeling of having already experienced a seemingly new situation, then Vu Deja is the exact opposite. It is seeing something we already know as if it were the first time.I first experienced this at a silent ...

Dear Jumbo: DTR

By Khuyen Bui | March 1

This phrase caught on in my mind like a meme when a friend taught it to me a few weeks ago. I would tell people, "I just learned this really cool phrase: DTR!" to which they would ask, "What does it stand for?" The moment I said, "Define The Relationship," everyone's ...
