What is happening to the SCC?
In a disastrous email entitled “SCC review and space allocation,” Brandeis’ Department of Student Engagement (DSE) has kicked numerous clubs out of their spaces in the Shapiro Campus Center (SCC). Unfortunately, as a non-secured club, The Brandeis Hoot was unlucky enough to receive this email. If you’re a club leader, a club member or even […]
If you love ‘Ted Lasso,’ watch ‘Shrinking’
It is shocking that “Shrinking” has not yet received the acclaim of its sister show, “Ted Lasso.” Unless you are an avid user of Apple TV+, you have likely never seen the sitcom-style dramedy which stars Jason Segel and Harrison Ford, but I cannot recommend it higher. “Shrinking” follows Jimmy (Jason Segel), a terrible, but […]

BookTok worth it or not: Spring break edition
Spring break came and went pretty quickly but I utilized my time well by reading for fun instead of for class! And since I am in my 21-going-on-81 era, I’ve been sticking with romance books that you can find on the shelves when traveling in airports. I’m kidding—kinda. I was in a romance book kick, […]
