BranVan student workers fired amid campus transportation change

(09/12/23 1:52pm)

Brandeis’ shuttle service, colloquially referred to as the BranVan, has seen its fair share of modifications following last November’s devastating shuttle crash. Joseph’s Transportation is out, replaced by DPV Transportation, a New England ground transportation service. The student-run campus and Waltham shuttles, however, saw an even more drastic change at the beginning of the semester: they are no longer running. As a result, nearly all the shuttle service’s student employees — a reported total of 40 drivers, coordinators and supervisors, according to chief of Public Safety Matthew Rushton — found themselves out of a job.

PAD Pilot Program to go unfunded by University

(05/02/23 10:00am)

Since its inception six years ago, Period Activists at ’Deis has had one mission: guarantee menstrual equity on campus by providing free menstrual products to all Brandeis students. After years of planning, advocates in PAD began to see the culmination of their efforts this semester with the implementation of their Pilot Program to install free menstrual products in first-year dorm buildings in North, East, and Massel Quads. Working with the Student Union, they applied for funding for this program from the Community Enhancement and Emergency Fund. While CEEF provided a temporary budget, PAD always intended to secure permanent financial support from the University’s facilities budget by demonstrating a need for a broader free product initiative among students. However, after a series of exchanges with administration, the leaders of the Pilot Program have newfound doubts about receiving necessary funding to maintain and expand their program.

Brandeis Baseball drops UAA series to Case Western Reserve

(04/25/23 10:00am)

Luck has not favored the Brandeis Baseball team this season. Sitting with a record of 5-27, the team has struggled to compete both in conference and out. In their University Athletic Association match-up versus Emory University, the Eagles scored a combined 62 runs in their Saturday, April 8 doubleheader — 31 runs in each game. The margin of difference — 4-31 and 7-31 in game one and two, respectively — were so great that the MLB website ran a story on its account. With 12 first-year players on the roster, the Judges have certainly felt the growing pains this season.
