In Trump era, states should fund cultivated-meat research
The All Majors Career and Internship Fair is coming up at the end of this month. Career fairs are an excellent way to connect with recruiters in person and get a better feel for companies you are interested in while learning about additional companies in the industry you are pursuing.

To the editor,
Where are the Democrats?
As the political climate in this country shifts, the futures of many feel uncertain. In moments of socio-political unrest, college campuses have served as both a place of refuge and a reflection of national turmoil, offering a space to seek security while simultaneously echoing the political struggles of the time.

Admittedly, this is an instance of rage writing.
Welcome back to campus, and to all new midyear students, welcome to the Brandeis community! Whether you are a returning student or this is your first semester on campus, Brandeis has so much to offer. The spring semester provides a chance to join new organizations and embrace new opportunities. Beyond that, the new semester is a time of renewal. Take the time to focus on yourself before the semester picks up. Establishing good habits and routines will help you have a great semester.
As winter break approaches, it’s time to finally take a much-needed break from life as a university student. After a rough and restless semester of daunting deadlines and what feels like endless projects and exams, winter break gives us a rare opportunity to relax, reflect and recharge on all the things life may throw at us. Spend quality time with friends and family and participate in activities that you truly enjoy. Opening Moodle and anxiously checking whether that one professor posted a grade you’ve been anticipating can wait.
As we approach the end of the fall semester, it’s time to turn our attention to the Brandeis mid-year graduates of 2024. These soon-to-be alumni deserve a hearty congratulations for completing their time at Brandeis and preparing to step into the next chapters of their lives.
To the editor,
As the semester winds down, I’ve been reflecting on where I was at this time last year. It was the first term of my junior year, and I was preparing to spend the second abroad at another university across an ocean and several time zones. I was terrified, constantly questioning whether I had made the right choice to go abroad.
We’ve all seen them — at elementary schools, football fields, playgrounds, even right outside our neighbors’ houses. But, location aside, what is it that all artificial lawns have in common? The answer, unfortunately, is the carcinogenic harm posed to both people and the real ecosystems replaced by these plastic excuses for nature. Few people recognize that replacing nature with human-made forgeries is rarely a harmless pursuit; in fact, it wasn’t until my own mother called me, in tears over the artificial lawn installed by our next door neighbors, that I realized the gravity of the situation for myself. Artificial turf symbolizes a shift away from natural, sustainable solutions in favor of synthetic alternatives that often prioritize convenience over environmental health; this choice aligns with a broader pattern of unsustainable consumption and resource extraction, which are both key drivers of the climate crisis.
Introduction: On Nov. 5, Former President Donald Trump was re-elected to his former office to become the 47th president of the United States and the second president to serve two non-consecutive terms. He is also the first Republican presidential candidate to win the national popular vote in 20 years.
As the sun sets at 4 p.m. and the temperature reaches below “tank-top” weather, I tend to get cynical — more so than usual. Being a product of the summer months and a born-and-bred desert lizard, my mood and general outlook on the world trend toward a downward spiral as the short, bitterly cold winter days creep closer. If my shrink — yes, it’s a politically incorrect term; no, I, a proud old-fashioned Jew, will not stop using it — were honest with me, she’d say that I’m a victim of seasonal affective disorder. And there is simply no amount of “happy lamps” and over-the-counter Vitamin D that can cure my wintertime blues. Trust me, I’ve tried it all.
