Calling all creatives: Basement Records is back on campus

As of this semester, Basement Records is back on campus to facilitate connections between student artists. Like many other clubs, Basement Records died out when Brandeis went remote during the pandemic. Originally founded in 2019 by Avi Hershbein ’19 as a student-run record label (without contracts, of course), the club made a quick splash, but failed to pick up steam. Without online recruitment opportunities, all the members graduated without successors. Basement Records, it seemed, was dead.

University Administration, it’s time to support students

It has been more than two weeks since the tragic shuttle accident, and the Justice editorial board continues to send our deepest condolences to all parties impacted by this event. While the University has held events to bring students together during these difficult times, it is important to remember that each member of Brandeis will handle these emotions differently. There are no words we can use to express the devastation this incident has caused. As an editorial board, we want to let the campus community know that we are listening to them.

Amazon Web Services CEO Adam Selipsky on effective leadership and lifelong learning

When Adam Selipsky first took over as chief executive of the Seattle-based Tableau Software, some employees were hesitant to embrace him. For starters, he was succeeding a charismatic cofounder who was deeply popular throughout the company. And then there was the culture question — Selipsky arrived in 2016 after spending 11 years at Amazon, which had a notoriously rigorous environment that some at Tableau feared would infiltrate their more upbeat way of life.

Countering Columbus and colonization: Indigenous Peoples’ Day at Brandeis

When Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492, he discovered the Americas and gave European settlers access to the bountiful lands overseas — or so the old, whitewashed tale goes. But Indigenous leaders like Jean-Luc Pierite are working to change this narrative.
