Living Like a Freshman: A Social Experiment

When we first set foot on campus, every one of us did whatever we could to meet people. We attended events alone, introduced ourselves to anybody and everybody and tried to spend as little time as possible alone.

HATER FRIDAY | You Can’t Give Up Social Media

Along with my name and major, one of the bits of information that was constantly requested during the opening weeks of my freshman year was my Instagram account. The issue: Until I had to face this reality at Cornell, I took great pride in being able to say that I didn’t use social media. So, during those opening weeks I smiled and shrugged, yet when all was said and done, I would walk away with no way to follow up with the person I had just talked to. I have since downloaded Instagram and Discord, but contrary to the necessity of social media, I’ve also heard many people lamenting the time they’ve spent on these platforms. Frankly, I find this ridiculous.

ROGERS | The Sale of Warner Bros. Discovery

The auction of Warner Bros. Discovery has begun, and the bids have been put in, though not without outside interference. With bids exceeding $100 billion, the sale of Warner Bros.

Softball Looks to Keep Momentum Rolling After Holt, Harshberger Lead Red to Ivy-Opening Series Win

Since 2015, softball’s history with Yale has not been pretty. Eight consecutive series losses. A 2-9 record away from Niemand-Robison Field. Failing to score six or more runs in 15 of the 22 matchups between the teams.

Is a Cornell Master’s Degree Worth It?

As the Class of 2026 graduates in two months, the question on their minds is what their graduate plans are. While some may be considering entering the workforce, others may even be considering furthering their education at Cornell. But if we all want whatever gives us the best ‘bang for our buck,’ is attaining a Cornell master’s degree a cost-effective decision?

TEST SPINS | Natasha Bedingfield: ‘Unwritten’

It’s March 6, or as it’s known in my house, shooting guard Josh Hart’s birthday. The New York Knicks just torched the Denver Nuggets in Ball Arena, 142-103. “It’s … the closer they get to the basket, he’s got to clean that up. And he will. He’s a smart guy, he’ll learn,” Denver’s head coach David Adelman tells the press. But wait … what’s that I hear in the background? No, it can’t be. And yet it is: Natasha Bedingfield’s 2004 smash-hit “Unwritten” is blasting from the Knicks locker room and drowning out the voice of Adelman as he reflects on his team’s (poor) performance. I am practically giddy as I write this, almost two weeks post-game. If you know me, you know that I am an enormous Knicks fan, and few things light me up like a Knicks win. If you know basketball, you know that March kicks off the most intense period of the entire season, with NBA teams getting in their final games before playoffs begin in April and the fever of March Madness taking over the world of college basketball. And there my team is, rejoicing with some Natasha Bedingfield after demolishing one of the best teams in the NBA and serving Nikola Jokić the biggest score deficit of his career during the regular season. I have never been more sure in my life that I am a fan of the right team. So, to celebrate this historic win and send my Knicks some good juju as we prepare to head into the playoffs, this week I’ll be revisiting Bedingfield’s debut album Unwritten.

5 Podcasts To Remedy College Burnout

New album this, Oscar winner that — does anyone still listen to podcasts? I, for one, have been on a podcast kick recently, streaming peppy businessmen with unsolicited life advice to provide a soundtrack to my day. In all seriousness, these short episodes can impart substantial wisdom in a small package, and I think it’s time for them to make a comeback. Thus, I have compiled a list of my top five favorite podcasts with a particular focus on self-improvement and mental health. 

A Look Into the Cinemapolis Experience

In a world full of reclining, heated seats and IMAX premium screens, the Cinemapolis movie theater experience is anything but. Nestled in the heart of The Ithaca Commons, Cinemapolis feels less like a commercial multiplex and more like stepping into a warm, inviting home theater. The moment you walk through its doors, the difference is noticeable: the smell of fresh popcorn mingles with hints of home-baked cookies and brownies, the soft lighting sets a cozy tone and the lobby hums with quiet, friendly chatter.

‘Euphoria’ Season 3: 5 Years Later

If your high school experience was anything like mine, then you remember the Euphoria obsession that had a chokehold on us all. While I do not really recall the release of season one, which came out in the summer of 2019, I definitely remember season two. Released in 2022, during my junior year, the excitement of each weekly episode release was intense, and there was even talk of a Euphoria themed prom (this brilliant idea was quickly shut down by the school administration). The show was especially hard-hitting for us as we were all the same age as the characters, albeit I hope not going through quite the same issues.

Getting a Bigger Bang for Your (City) Buck

A common complaint among students living on South Campus is how far their residence halls are from on-campus dining options. Even I can admit, as a West Campus resident, that all 10 dining halls being a 20-minute walk away from South Campus feels unfair. However, one major advantage of living in Collegetown is the associated South Campus meal plan.
