Right now we’re in the thick of the semester with midterms and papers that need to be wrapped up by the end of the month while still consistently attending classes and extracurriculars and handling various other mid-semester responsibilities.
Shout out to my friends who read Today’s Announcements:
Since I started high school, I’ve occasionally skimmed through texts the night before an exam, but it’s not like I’m actually taking in the meaning of most of the words. I got through high school with the help of SparkNotes (although I’ll never forgive them for the two-sentence summary they wrote for Brokeback Mountain — only got one question right on that pop quiz). I would even go as far as to dedicate my high school diploma to SparkNotes.
There are two species of Turkeys, Meleagris gallopavo and meleagris ocellata. Gallopavo turkeys are native throughout North America and are confusingly referred to as both the domestic turkey and the wild turkey. The other species of turkey is native to the Yucatán Peninsula.
Morgan: summer’s right around the corner; You know what that means?
To celebrate past April Fools days, news publications have published fake stories and duped its audiences. (Breitbart, on the other hand, enjoys celebrating April Fool’s Day year-round).
I got very sick a few weeks ago. Understandably, my friends would sit one seat away from me in class because I was phlegmy and gross, and none of them could afford to catch whatever my bug from hell was. But for some reason, I found myself growing increasingly upset every time this happened.

Screenwriter John Gregory Dunne is planning a film called The Post, to star Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, that will depict how the Pentagon Papers saga developed in The Washington Post newsroom. Hanks will star as Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee, and Streep will play The Post’s publisher Katharine Graham.
Communities have been split apart and rivalries are formed purely on the basis of that one question. One family had even given up completely, creating an oversized game show-style spinner, leaving the whole decision up to chance. They admitted in defeat that this was for the gods to decide.
In spite of the recent turn in the weather, spring break is nearly upon us, which should hopefully put most of us in a celebratory mood. If you still need to wallow in some remaining winter blues, however, I’ve created a playlist that’s a bit mellower than the last one.
Diplomacy and tact are not words which come to mind when describing Trump and his administration’s handling of international affairs. He’s painted the world in black and white, according to how he sees fit, and seems intent on retaining a brazen attitude even toward America’s allies.
We all suffer from severe fear of missing out, or FOMO, and it’s only getting worse.
The story is told, to great effect, through a collection of first-person diary entries called “progress reports,” which chronicle Charlie’s changing level of intelligence and consequently his awareness of social cues and emotions. At the beginning of the story, Charlie writes with noticeably poor grammar and spelling.
The 29 year old was born and raised near Detroit, Michigan. After graduating high school, Posner chose to attend Duke, but during his first few semesters, he quickly got into record producing. He started making tracks with Big Sean, a hometown friend, and was featured on Big Sean’s first mixtape. When Posner started making his own mixtapes, people were quick to notice. After his junior year at Duke, he signed a record deal with J Records. Instead of taking a leave of absence, he attended classes during the week and toured and recorded new songs for his debut album on the weekends.
As much as I wanted to go get one on my 18th birthday, I waited, for fear of the backlash I knew I was going to get. But last month, I went to a little shop in Hampden and, with my big holding my hand, finally got a tattoo. While I could not be happier about it, I know that, for various reasons, many people seem to think tattoos are some kind of abomination.
Morgan: Audrey, I had a Ratatouille moment the other day.
I had to take both the subway and bus, and they were always crowded because, of course, school starts just after rush hour. There usually wouldn’t be any seats available, so I’d have to stand, often in closer contact with people than I would ever have wanted.
They’re depicted throughout art as symbols of strength and beauty, and although we don’t treat actual lions too well, we have deep appreciation of the symbolic majesty of the idea of a lion.
Shout out to global warming. We get it, you’re real. Please stop now though.
