I’m definitely an odd one out when it comes to my favorite summer activity: watching Shakespeare under the stars. It doesn’t feel like summer has arrived yet if I haven’t found a local theatre troupe putting on one of the Bard’s plays in a park, field or open-air theater. Since I was taking classes here at Brandeis during the summer, I knew I had to make a trip out to Boston to see the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company’s performance on the Boston Common.

Final exams at the end of the semester — at nearly every university, that’s just a matter-of-fact aspect of campus life. But in 1949, Brandeis was only in the second semester of its first academic year. Buildings still had to be built, professors still had to be hired and students still had to be recruited. The school was not even fully accredited yet. Suffice it to say, there was plenty of work left to do to get the fledgling university off the ground.

It’s that time of year again! The most exciting time in sports! The NBA playoffs are coming. The playoff race is tight as ever in both conferences for the first time in a long time: the East, where one game separates the sixth and ninth spots, and the West, where there is a four and a half game difference between the third seed and the eighth seed. After last night’s blowout victory, the Los Angeles Lakers crushed the Charlotte Hornets’ hope of making the playoffs this season, barring a catastrophic implosion by any of the four teams ahead of them. The East is probably having their most exciting playoff race in a long time, with the Detroit Pistons, Brooklyn Nets, Orlando Magic and Miami Heat all fighting to finish with the sixth seed and avoid being swept by the Milwaukee Bucks or Toronto Raptors. The West’s playoff race is already locked in with the Golden State Warriors, Denver Nuggets, Portland Trail Blazers, Houston Rockets, Utah Jazz, Los Angeles Clippers, San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder all having clinched their breaths in the postseason.
