L+A: As writers of all things life and arts on campus, it’s only fair that we share our thoughts on the best Thanksgiving dishes that could grace your taste buds this holiday — and also the ones we prefer to steer clear from.

From controversial opinions on mashed potatoes and turkey to praise for classic favorites like stuffing and cranberry sauce, we have compiled a list of the things we will be scooping onto our plates first, and those that will not be asked to make their way across the table.

Tower Pizza celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, honoring four decades of service as a community hotspot in Westchester and the neighborhoods surrounding LMU. Beginning as the area’s first pizza delivery service, Tower Pizza has evolved into a local sports bar, where many individuals and families spend their evenings. Tony Seruto, the owner of Tower Pizza, reflects on the history and people who helped shape what it is known for today.

“I have a wall of people that we've lost through the years … It's all about community. It's all about friendship,” said Tony Seruto. “So I get involved with all these people — my regulars — and they're like family, and then when I lose one of them and they pass on, it's just like losing family members.”

This year marks the 40th anniversary of Tower Pizza, a local family-run business that caters to LMU and the broader Westchester community. Over the years, they have created a welcoming

OPINION: With Nancy Pelosi’s retirement, Democrats are faced with a choice: stick with the old or in with the new?

With her exit approaching in early 2027, the question that arises isn’t solely about who fills Pelosi’s seat — it’s who rises to occupy the power left in her wake. Despite her success and impressive accomplishments, Pelosi’s reign kept the party stuck in an old hierarchy built upon moderate appeal. In my opinion, her retirement offers a rare opening, where progressives — not hand-picked successors — can carry the torch of leadership and begin to compose the necessary change for the party.
