Welcome back to a new semester! I know that you guys are bored stiff of all the wonderful rest and relaxation you got over the past month and a half, but in case you’re still in denial about the end of winter break, we in the Arts & Entertainment section have got you covered with plenty of fresh picks and new releases.
A new semester has begun as we returned to a snowy campus. This week’s science news reveals exciting new insights that can help transition our mindset from vacation to school.
This last events article of the semester is a special one! We will look ahead to all the fun winter festivities and see the many ways to celebrate the holiday season in Baltimore. It’s a great way to relieve stress during finals week or to celebrate the end of the semester. Happy holidays — Events This Weekend will be back next year!
In the second to last week of the semester, there will be many arts performances left and right, as multiple groups vie for your limited attention. At Peabody Institute, there were too many department and individual recitals to list out — not only is the end of the semester approaching for Peabody students, meaning many end-of-semester performances, but the holiday season has encouraged performances from choirs and small ensembles alike. I encourage you to look through the Hub to find the perfect performance to calm you down before finals consume your mental state.
As we are approaching finals season, let’s take some time to acknowledge the hard work of scientists around the world and learn from their commitment to their work. This week’s science news covers new insights into the monkeypox virus in Congo, robots made of human cells, archaeological preservation in Ukraine and an AI-robot that can predict and synthesize new materials.
We are almost at the end of the semester! Head downtown before your finals and enjoy all the winter festivities.
With Thanksgiving approaching, we can all take a moment to be grateful for the beauty of scientific discovery. This week has brought images from the Euclid Space Telescope, biological chimeras and yet another superconductivity controversy.
I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving. You’re looking forward to Thanksgiving. Even our professors are probably desperate for a break. With that in mind, if you want to get started on break early, we here in the Arts & Entertainment section have the best new releases and recommendations for you!
If you are staying in Baltimore for the start of the break, you’ll be thankful to hear about these great events!
Leave campus and your midterms behind for all kinds of fun activities around the city this weekend, from comedy shows to farmers' markets!
As we enter the November stretch of the semester, researchers around the world are also working hard to advance efforts that can be beneficial to human health. This week’s science news highlights endeavors to understand various health challenges and identify treatments to combat them.
As finals season draws closer and closer, the weather is getting frostier and student groups are finally starting to crank out the performances that they’ve been rehearsing for all semester.
Festivities don’t end with Halloween! Check out fun events around Baltimore as the city gets ready to welcome Thanksgiving.
October has pretty much passed, and though we can assume a week of layover, with plenty of scary movie marathons and leftover candy munching, by the end of this week we’ll all probably realize it’s time to move on. Personally, I’ve always enjoyed November — we’re not quite at finals and we get a full week of break. Fall isn’t over, as well, which is something to feel good about.
It’s spooky season, and the following scientific findings sure are a treat! Scientific news this week ranges from as microscopic as gut microbiome to as macroscopic as Mars.
Fall break may be over, but fun events around the city don’t stop! Enjoy the fall season and all the festivities leading up to Halloween!
Here in the Arts Section, we hope everyone has had a restful Fall Break (or at least just got in a good nap or two). Now that we’re coming into the second half of the semester, I think everybody is feeling a bit overwhelmed. So why not take a moment to escape from it all with a new movie or book release, or get away from campus for a bit and spend a night out with some friends?
Following Hoptoberfest, hopefully, the entertainment bug has bit campus! October has been a great month for arts and entertainment so far and continues to give us great releases each week.
Welcome to the midway point in the semester! Here at The News-Letter, we hope you’re taking breaks and taking care of yourselves (even though, let’s be real, we know you probably aren’t). But if you’re looking for something to watch in between studying for midterms or a cool new album to listen to while you run to your 9 a.m. in Bloomberg, then we’ve got you covered.
Headlining this weekend is the Baltimore Running Festival, but if that’s not for you, keep reading for all the other exciting things happening around the city!
