Photobook reflects on collective power of Women’s March
“We Who March,” a book of photos from the 2017 Women’s March shot by 30 photographers—28 of which were women—is a “book for the community, by the community and of the community,” according to the book’s creator Ellen Feldman. The self-published book, which features photos shot primarily at marches in Washington, D.C., New York City, […]
Asian Food at Brandeis Sucks
I never expected great food when I decided to come to Brandeis. In fact, I was quite aware of the average quality of the campus food in America, being badly burned before in high school. But I still thought to myself: “Hey, that tuition must have gone somewhere. It can’t be that bad, right?” So, […]
Arcadia Ablaze
When I walked into the SCC Theater last Saturday night, I was immediately met with the scent of open flames. As I was familiar with Arcadia’s grim ending, I thought, “Wow!

While paying homage to Taiwanese traditions of love, the event also focused on Taiwanese dating culture in today’s day and […]
“Nature’s Nation” exhibit examines American art
Most art museums don’t really try to explore the origins of their pieces. They leave them up on the wall with just a few scraps of information—leaving it up to us to piece together their historical context. If we’re lucky, we’ll get a sentence or two describing the artist’s life; if we’re unlucky, there will […]
