Filmmaking has changed dramatically since the 1980s. Advancements in technology, from visual effects to production equipment to home media, have altered how audiences see films and how creators market to audiences. However, perhaps no movie genre has been transformed as much as sword and sorcery. Often said to be birthed with Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian stories, sword and sorcery is a realm of epic heroes, dark forces, battles of steel, magic and struggles for the fate of the world. As a movie genre, sword and sorcery saw its golden age in the ’80s, but has since petered out, restricted to low-budget movies with sub-par actors and garish effects. Today, with the film industry’s heavy reliance on computer-generated imagery and the spread of artificial intelligence, we have to wonder if the magic has faded forever, taking sword and sorcery with it.

At this point in the fall semester, whether it's your first or eighth, the routine has set in for better or for worse. We are tired. It's getting colder. Colors are changing. You may have multiple prelims on one day (we have all been there). Yet, amidst all of this chaos and season of adjustments, Homecoming Weekend, which spans from Oct. 3 to 5 this year, is a cherished tradition that comes at the perfect time — right before fall break, when things may start to look bleak.

As a child, I was obsessed with the world of the unknown. Any book that dealt with mystery or fantasy had me hooked. I don’t know what it was about those stories, but I would lose myself completely in them. I can still picture my younger self sitting on my bed at sunset, eager to dive back into a novel. During my mystery phase, I gravitated toward series like Nancy Drew, The Secret Seven and The Hardy Boys, the very same books my mom and other relatives had loved before me.

The Johnson Museum has stood on Cornell’s campus since its opening in 1973. Every student has walked past it on their way to class at least once, yet many have actually never been inside. When I first went freshman year, I also did not truly appreciate the breadth of the museum’s collection, however after visiting recently I had found so many new masterpieces that I had simply missed the first time. This is my comprehensive overview of the hidden gems I found at the Johnson Museum:

Are you still watching? Or rather, when do you stop? Everyone knows there is a fine line between comedy and cringe, though people draw that line in different places. Some enjoy the moments where a show feels like a fever dream, while others, like myself, can’t stand anything that passes from funny to uncomfortable. As a STEM major with a microscopic amount of free time for TV, if my line is crossed, I immediately throw in the towel. If I have the chance to watch a show, it simply has to be good. But recently, I’ve felt that shows have been losing their plots earlier, missing the comedy marks that were hit in the previous episodes and crossing well into cringe instead. For example, I personally couldn’t bring myself to watch past the first season of The Summer I Turned Pretty, but the wedding preparation dance scene from the third season that was ridiculed across social media would have sent me over the edge. Recently I’ve watched two shows, one that I’ve finished and one I am debating on continuing. And while they have both toed the cringe line, one does so excusably and the other much less so. I’m curious to know, would you stop watching?

The Cornell University Dance Team made history at the Universal Dance Association College Nationals in January 2024, when Cornell became the first Ivy League university dance team to qualify for finals.

Down by 13 points against Yale and approaching the red zone, junior quarterback Devin Page had multiple options: he could have targeted senior wide receiver Doryn Smith, who ended the game with the most receptions, or he could have handed the ball off to senior running back Robert Tucker III and picked up a few yards.
