For many mechanical engineers of the Cornell College of Engineering, 125 Upson Hall is a home for academic advising. But in addition to advising resources, the room is also a space for MechE students to connect with their community and discover the magic of two small, pink, glow-in-the-dark creatures: axolotls.*
Amid a mix of reactions, both positive and negative, to the release of this year’s Slope Day headliner, I thought it would be interesting to look back upon Slope Day performers of the past. After cherry-picking 10 different past artists and some of their most famous songs, I leave it up to you to decide if the grass is truly greener on the other side, or, in this case, in another time.
The stage was set. It was 364 days since men’s lacrosse defeated Princeton to win the 2025 Ivy League Men’s Lacrosse Tournament. If the Red wanted to kick off its postseason campaign with the same magic as last year, it would need a mirror performance.
On April 1, the Supreme Court heard arguments from Solicitor General D. John Sauer, who claimed that children, born of undocumented immigrants or temporary residents, physically in the United States at the time of birth, are not entitled to American citizenship. American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Cecilia Wang, on behalf of those rebuking President Trump’s efforts to overturn the Constitutional guarantee of birthright citizenship, advanced that the narrowed definition of “domiciled” offered by the solicitor general on behalf of President Trump was an aside in the preceding cases which guide the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment’s birthright citizenship clause. The proceedings occurred after President Trump signed Executive Order 14160, titled “Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship.” The order seeks to exclude only unauthorized immigrants and those with temporary legal status from being eligible for birthright citizenship. However, Executive Orders do not have the authority to amend the Constitution; only Congress has the power to propose Amendments. This makes the interpretative claim raised, a matter for The Supreme Court, which would need to narrow the definition of “domiciled,” silently overturning decades of precedent.
“Prior to the movement and following the movement, stillness,” writes Anne Carson in a fragment of her poem “By Chance the Cycladic People.”
During finals, a particular kind of silence settles over campus. Thousands of students lean forward into the same posture: slightly tense, aware that something important is about to happen. From the outside, it looks like a moment of evaluation, with a clear beginning and an end. But sitting there, we all know that something more complicated is unfolding.

Kotlikoff described the encounter as a “harassment and intimidation incident” and wrote that he “waited until [he] saw space behind the car.” Kotlikoff did not mention any collision between the vehicle and the individuals.Click here to read the full story.Article by Varsha Bhargava and Mary Caitlin CroninFootage obtained by the Sun from Students for a Democratic CornellEdited by Benjamin LeynseSophia Dasser, Shubha Gautam and Atticus Johnson contributed reporting.

On April 17, Big Strong Man Productions performed Sunset Splatter in Goldwin Smith Hall, and on April 18, they traveled out to stage the play under a bridge. Sunset Splatter is special in that it’s a completely original, fully Cornell student-made production which premiered here on campus. The play was written by the recently graduated Lila Rallatos ’24, as the second collaboration between director Caroline Murphy ’28 and Big Strong Man Productions since Girls! Girls! Girls! this past January.
Where is the empathy? Or, like The Black Eyed Peas would say, Where Is the Love?
Researchers at the Cornell Jeb E. Brooks School of Public Policy launched an interactive map in January that highlights immigration policies in different regions of New York State.
It’s nearly impossible nowadays not to be well acquainted with the attention span issues and ‘brain rot’ of the current media landscape. And while we are quick to acknowledge that this is our new and pitiful reality, we not only perpetuate it and make it part of our lives, but also criticize anything that challenges it.
“The child is there. THE CHILD’S FATHER is there. Beyond that, nothing is certain,” reads the prelude for the American premier of Monica Isakstuen’s play, originally written in Norwegian. The piece is an abstract meditation on absent motherhood, although I hesitate to pin it down in such terms — or any terms, because the events of the play are truly as uncertain as they purport to be. Isakstuen’s elusive piece was staged in Ithaca this past week by the Cherry Artists’ Collective, an arts hub that often stages newly translated works. Their production, directed by the Cherry’s executive director Samuel Buggeln, speaks to the core of the show, shrewdly actualizing the diverging realities that Isakstuen contemplates in the piece.
