SPONSORED: What if you hit pause on the routine and spent your fall semester in Washington, DC? Campus is cute, but DC hits different. Internships, influence, classes AND free museums? Let’s go.
The Scripps Semester in D.C. is a fully immersive experience designed for students who are ready to grow, explore, and take their skills to the next level.

Let’s be honest—another semester of midterms, iced coffee, and crying in the library isn’t exactly ✨main character energy✨.

🌟 Honoring a Legacy of Leadership 🌟

From defending press freedom to dancing joyfully during a lecture on copyright law — Dr. D did it all with integrity, boldness, and heart 💜

Editorial: It is not unusual for politicians to complain about journalists. However, as the President of the United States, it is anticipated that whoever is in office will field deep criticisms- it is part of the job.

If the president holds an insecurity so deep that he will neither allow a comedian to perform at what is widely considered a light-hearted event and tradition nor attend the event, he is demonstrating a willingness to engage with censorship so wholly that not even humor at his expense is allowed.

Opinion: Coachella is supposed to be about music and art, then how come social media all I see on social media is the outfits.

Coachella is one of the biggest festivals in the U.S., but it is no longer about the music and art, but rather about the posts someone makes about it.
