The theme for the 2026 Met Gala was recently revealed to be “Costume Art.” The event will highlight an intimate appreciation for all body types, holding the belief that fashion has the status of art because of, and not in spite of, its relation to the body.

Op-Ed: "While Fordham University’s commitment to smaller class sizes and emphasis on personal growth encourages strong connections between professors and students, it is ultimately up to the students to forge strong connections with their professors."

My experiences at Fordham have profoundly reshaped my perspective on the college environment, and I just got here! As a student, I don’t feel like an anonymous face — I feel like an individual. The relationships I’ve developed with my professors have enriched my academic journey. Most, if not ...

Jessie Jolles, an actress, director and influencer, uses fashion and comedy to create a space for positivity and self-acceptance.

Op-Ed: "Critics will insist that he is untested or that he is leaning on his last name. But history tells another story. Every Kennedy who stepped into public life, from JFK to RFK to Ted to Caroline, did so under a shadow of a legacy larger than any one person. And yet, time and again, they emerged as devoted public servants whose legacies are measured not by their tragedies but by their impact. Jack Schlossberg is not running away from the burden of his last name. He is running toward the responsibility of it."

Schlossberg’s announcement made one thing clear: He is not running as a relic from a bygone era. He is running as a young Democrat who sees New York’s 12th district not merely as a wealthy Manhattan enclave, but as a proving ground for the future of the party, the future of public service and ho...

“Planes, Trains and Automobiles” is more than just a series of bickering between the two main characters, Page and Griffith. The film is about the importance of human connection, teaching us that feelings of alienation and loneliness can be amplified during the holiday season when people gather together, and that even the smallest of actions can make a big difference.

The holiday season is hands down the most exciting time to be in New York City. People flock from all over the world to NYC from November to December, and we are lucky enough as college students to be right in the middle of all of it.

Op-Ed: "The biggest issue I have with working is not the fact that I spend about 20 hours per week working, but rather that I lose time I could’ve had to give myself proper rest. My job isn’t difficult, but rather time-consuming. I know I could spend those 20 hours either catching up on schoolwork or taking a well-overdue nap."

There are multiple factors for prospective student workers to consider. Looking back on my college experience, I realized I’ve never had a morning in the city to myself or with some friends. No café-hopping, no spontaneous walks, no long talks next to the Hudson River — none of that. Instead, I...

Contrary to popular belief, winter temperatures don’t mean you have to trade style at the expense of warmth. Wool trench coats provide a chic and practical alternative to the classic puffer jacket, and the prevalence of neutral colors and minimalistic style provides an opportunity to refine our fashion sense in the colder months.
