The Student Union Senate voted to overturn President Peyton Gillespie’s ’25 veto of the Student Union budget for the 2023-24 academic year at its final meeting of the semester on April 23.

Students protest unsuitable housing accommodations offers

(04/25/23 10:00am)

Students and their families coming to tour Brandeis on Admitted Students Day, April 21, were prepared to walk through campus and learn more about what the University has to offer. However, they could not have anticipated a group of students waiting for them outside the Gosman Sports and Convocation Center with the goal of conveying how the University’s Department of Community Living has wronged students with disabilities by failing to offer them housing that meets their accommodations, as previously promised. 


DCL fails to fulfill housing accommodations

(04/04/23 10:00am)

On March 30, shortly after assigning students with their selection numbers, the Department of Community Living released housing options for students who applied for housing accommodations for the upcoming academic year. However, numerous students have reported that their housing offers have not been suitable in terms of the DCL-approved accommodations. Additionally, many juniors and seniors were not offered housing accommodations because their randomly-assigned housing numbers were too high. In response, two students from the Disabled Students’ Network created a letter template for students to sign and send to DCL to advocate for impacted students. Due to the initiative’s strong support, the plan evolved into a petition that has been signed by 182 students, 19 alumni, and 26 relatives, as of press time. 






Young challengers and defeated champions: All England 2023

(03/21/23 10:00am)

The All England Open 2023 surprised its audience since the first day of the tournament. Previous championship title holder and world No. 1 Viktor Axelsen was defeated in the preliminaries by young Malaysian player Tze Yong Ng. World No. 5 Tien Chen Chou and world No. 2 Jonatan Christie were eliminated in the first round. Young shuttler Shifeng Li, who had never won a title above Super 100 level, capturing the decisive victory against his fellow compatriot Yuqi Shi — world No. 13 — was by far the most jaw-dropping event that occurred at the All England Open. 


Ranking the top three women’s basketball players in March Madness

(03/21/23 10:00am)

We have entered the prime time of college basketball in 2023. The National Collegiate Athletic Association basketball tournament matchups have resulted in upset after upset, echoing the brand “March Madness” in its unpredictability. Every single bracket placed in the men’s basketball tournament was busted as Fairleigh Dickinson University historically defeated the first-seed Purdue University. With numerous unexpected victories — headlined by Florida Gulf Coast University and Toledo University — there are now only seven perfect brackets left in women’s basketball playoffs. As women’s basketball has seen a steady rise in popularity, I present my personal take on the top three women’s basketball players in this year’s March Madness tournament.
