50 years of AAAS: remembering a resistance

by Hannah Shumel | 02/05/2019

The Department of African and African American Studies (AAAS), established on April 24, 1969, is celebrating its 50th anniversary this week, but the history of Black students and their influence at Brandeis existed long before then. The legacy of Black intellectuals like Ralph Bunche — scholar, eventual Nobel Peace Prize recipient and Brandeis’ first convocation speaker — and Brandeis’ first Black graduate Herman Hemingway ’53, founder of the University’s  NAACP chapter, helped Brandeis establish its reputation as an institution of social change.

Romantic Getaways

by Hannah Shumel and Sophie Fulara | 02/13/2018

What makes a college campus romantic? Is it the beauty of the buildings, the students, the surrounding landscape or some intangible quality some places possess?

Some students couldn’t name a place at Brandeis that they felt fit the description, so they recommended places in Waltham.  While inconclusive and sprinkled with sarcasm and humor, their answers may give you an idea of where to go on Feb. 14th.                                                                    — Victor Feldman
