Welcome to Johns Hopkins University, where people will assume you want to be a doctor and will also butcher your school’s name in ways you would never imagine (no, it’s not John Hopskins). Here are some of my best tips for a fledgling Blue Jay:
Now that you’re an official Hopkins student, you’ll probably be spending quite a bit of time in Brody Learning Commons or the Milton S. Eisenhower Library (MSE).
1. Eat a whole funnel cake at Spring Fair (the largest run student fair in America).
There are three types of freshmen who enter Hopkins.
Welcome, freshmen! We know that figuring out what classes to take can be difficult and stressful. So here are some suggestions from six upperclassmen.

1. Wonder Women: Gadot is the first actress to play Amazonian warrior and demigoddess Diana Prince, aka Wonder Woman, on the big screen, not counting Cobie Smulders' portrayal in 2014’s The Lego Movie. Gadot was first introduced as Wonder Woman in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Previously, the iconic DC superhero had only been portrayed on television, most famously by Lynda Carter in the 1970s.
About two months ago, the shots fired in Olathe, Kansas rang loudest through the ears of Indians all across the country. As I read about the victim, his countless similarities to my dad stained my mind, specifically his job in IT and his Indian ethnic background.
For anyone who is not yet familiar with the show, it’s the story of Hannah Baker, who commits suicide and leaves behind cassette tapes of 13 reasons why she made the decision to kill herself, and each of these 13 reasons is a person who receives the tapes.
Watching the fly search for a way outside, I was reminded of a short story by Virginia Woolf that I had read a long time ago, called “The Death of the Moth” (not a fly, but the same themes apply). In Woolf’s story, the narrator describes watching the world outside from behind her window and being fascinated by the energy that came “rolling in from the fields and the down beyond” and flowed between the trees, the birds and the horses.
Well, it’s finally here. I am officially halfway through my time at Hopkins, as much as I would love to scream “LALALALA” at anyone who dares to bring it up.
Barrowman played a gangster in the episode’s West Side Story-esque extended dream sequence rather than his Arrow character, the ruthless villain Malcolm Merlyn. But could we see an Arrow musical episode in the future featuring Merlyn and Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) breaking out into a song and dance routine?
Currently, far-right extremist Marine Le Pen and independent centrist Emmanuel Macron have advanced to the second (and final) round of voting. The French election process has two tiers; More than 10 candidates participated in the first, although only five were considered true contenders. Significantly, it was the first time in French history that neither candidate of the two major parties — François Fillon of the center-right Republican party and Benoît Hamon of the left-wing Socialist Party — advanced to the second round.
Last week, we sent The News-Letter off to the printer at 7 a.m. and finished the most rewarding and stressful year of our lives. Since our first week as Editors-in-Chief, we have tried our hardest to put out the best possible product, but the success of this paper never rested on us alone.
As a follow-up to my last column about why Supergirlhas relationship trouble, this week I’m taking on the other issue that’s been dragging the show down this season: Kara’s career. In season one, Kara (Melissa Benoist) started as an assistant to the high-strung, demanding, witty and wonderfully saucy Cat Grant (Calista Flockhart), CEO of CatCo Worldwide Media.
Welcome back to the couch; Sorry there’s so little space.
Have you heard of Albin Lee Meldau yet? Well, if you haven’t, then you are about to be blown away. With his perfectly graveled voice, which reminds me of James Arthur or Ed Sheeran, Meldau is sure to impress. But it’s not just his vocals, Meldau’s rhythms and brand new music video are also top notch and guaranteed to keep your attention.
I wasn’t all that rebellious of a kid back in elementary school. There were a few days where I brought my Game Boy to school. Occasionally, I put more duck sauce on my chicken fingers than I was supposed to. I’ll admit I did cheat on an exam on U.S. trivia once in fifth grade because I hadn’t been paying attention to the last week’s worth of classes. (Nowadays, I just accept my impending failures.) But these were all one-off or otherwise infrequent incidents.
Do you ever look at a worm and wonder what it was doing all winter? While the rest of us were suffering through exams and flu season, what were the things that wriggle and crawl doing? Well, wonder no more, for I am about to tell you.
