On Oct. 18, a freshman who would like to remain unnamed and her roommate began smelling smoke before they went to sleep in their Mahoney dorm room. The next morning, they woke up in a smoke-filled room.

The girls said that the smoke was pouring out of the HVAC system, the vents for the air conditioner.

“We thought [the HVAC] was going to fully catch our room on fire. So we freaked out, called maintenance, and then they weren’t answering,” she said.

Heading up North to Pennsylvania to finish off their regular season, the No. 12 Miami Hurricanes (10-2, 6-2 ACC) steamrolled the No. 22 Pittsburgh Panthers (8-4, 6-2 ACC), winning 38-7.

After three scoreless drives to start the game, UM got the party started with a 29-yard field goal by Carter Davis to give Miami a 3-0 lead.

The drive showed what would be a large aspect of Miami’s gameplan with freshman phenom, Malachi Toney, tallying a catch, a rush and a pass attempt during the drive. In total, Toney would end with 13 receptions for 126 yards and a touchdown, five rushes for 30 yards and a passing touchdown.

About three years ago while I was an undergraduate student, I participated in formal recruitment as a sophomore. Joining a sorority was one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. I made lifelong friends, participated in philanthropy and gained skills that I will carry for a lifetime.

But going through rush? You couldn’t pay me to do it again.

This upcoming recruitment is scheduled to begin on Jan. 5, 2026. The current formal sorority recruitment model does not set up Potential New Members, commonly referred to as PNMs, for success. It is not realistic for creating true connections throughout the week, leaving many PNMs stressed and unhappy.

I am sick and tired of being at the club and hearing music without any words. How on earth do people enjoy dancing to straight beats over and over again?

The truth is, we have traded art and emotion for bass drops. Music at the club should be about connection, not just noise. It should make people feel something — joy, nostalgia, the urge to sing your heart out with your friends at 1 a.m.

EDM and house music dominate Miami nightlife, from Club Space to UM frat parties. But lately, more people are craving a return to nostalgic, lyrical hits that get the crowd singing instead of just jumping in place.While electronic music is popular in Miami, it’s time for clubs to mix in early 2000s bops that bring back the fun, emotion and energy that lyrics create.

Dr. Michelle Bravo, a doctor who resigned from the University of Miami’s Miller Center, sees what other neurologists might miss. That’s how she saved a 21-year-old’s life during her first years as an adjunct professor.

When a young man was about to be sent home after the primary medical team found nothing wrong with him, Bravo and her student resident asked for more tests. One CT scan later, they discovered he actually had lymphoma, a cancer that attacks brain nerves.

Bravo thought she’d have more moments like this at UM. Then, on Sept. 11, 2025, while she was in Brazil for the 22nd International Headache Congress, she was informed that an Instagram repost concerning Charlie Kirk that she had made on her public account had gone viral.

She resigned from UM two days later.

POLITICS: Why Zohran Mamdani won in New York City and what it means for 2026

Emil and Lazaro argue different sides of the debate and explain why they believe Zohran Mamdani won the mayorship of New York City and what that victory means for U.S. politics and the 2026 midterm elections.

These opinions do not reflect the stance of The Miami Hurricane.

Lakeside Village and University Village residents will not be required to pay a fee of $1,700 for the Winter Intersession beginning Fall 2025. This would have been the first time students in UV and Lakeside would be required to pay for intersession housing.

On Tuesday Nov. 11, The Miami Hurricane received a tip from a student who wishes to remain unnamed notifying about the alleged new fee. The student called Housing and Residential Life that same day, and a representative confirmed that the fee would be required.

Guard Tre Donaldson, center Ernest Udeh Jr. and forward Malik Reneau make up the core of the University of Miami men’s basketball team for the 2025-2026 season.

Beyond their love for the game and desire to win, all three athletes share one defining trait — they are all transfer athletes.

“All of a sudden, it felt like somebody elbowed me in the face. I thought someone hit me with their phone or something,” Holton said. “But then I felt my face and it was hot so I looked down.”

Holton said that he was looking around to see if anyone else felt anything and noticed a “shotgun-shell looking item” on the ground.

“It was a firework shell, so I tried to pick it up,” he said. “It was piping hot so I dropped it, but then I picked it up again.”
