In the second to last week of the semester, there will be many arts performances left and right, as multiple groups vie for your limited attention. At Peabody Institute, there were too many department and individual recitals to list out — not only is the end of the semester approaching for Peabody students, meaning many end-of-semester performances, but the holiday season has encouraged performances from choirs and small ensembles alike. I encourage you to look through the Hub to find the perfect performance to calm you down before finals consume your mental state.

With fast fashion brands like Shein being so cheap, it is easy to convince ourselves that we should buy more clothes. Shein is amongst other fashion retailers, such as Temu and FashionNova, that are known for their cheap product prices and their frequent releases of new items. Despite the allure of fast fashion, it fosters a culture of clothing waste and overconsumption that is harmful to both the environment and individuals.

70. This is the number of points that the Denver Broncos conceded in their week 3 loss against the Miami Dolphins. Looking back, it’s difficult to believe that game was played this season, and even more difficult to believe that it got worse from there. As if conceding the second most points in NFL history wasn’t bad enough, two weeks later the Broncos lost to Nathaniel Hackett and the New York Jets, the man who led Denver in the disaster of a season that was 2022.

Baltimore’s beloved jazz singer, the late Ethel Ennis, would have turned 91 years old last week. She is known for her smooth vocals, her expressiveness and her ardent authenticity; never a fan of record labels, Ennis walked away from the superstar track so that she could do things her own way. Billie Holiday once said to her, “You have a great voice. You don’t fake it.” Frank Sinatra said she was “my kind of singer.” Keystone Korner Baltimore celebrated Ennis’ birthday on Wednesday, Nov. 29 with a gigantic vanilla cake and a series of performances to match her silken songs.

When I first heard that the film The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was going to be released, I was less than enthusiastic. To me, it seemed like a product of Hollywood’s latest trend of releasing seemingly endless strings of reboots and spin-offs of already successful hits. Was my inner side-braid-wearing, archery-obsessed self from 2012 secretly thrilled at the prospect of a new Hunger Games movie? Admittedly, yes. But I also didn’t want The Hunger Games to become the latest franchise to be recycled, repackaged and presented as new.

Danny Brown’s sixth studio album, Quaranta (“40” in Italian and referring to his age), is a sequel to his critically acclaimed album XXX (also referring to his age at the time, meaning “30” in Roman numerals). Its release comes at the curtails of a particularly turbulent year for rap — from the overreactions at the lack of a number one Billboard rap album in the first half of the year, to the latter half’s big-name releases from Drake and Travis Scott, this year has been a whirlwind for rap in particular.

What better way to unload stress from the perpetual midterm season than a good old-fashioned trip to the movies? I can say for myself that after my week, that was just what I needed. Even though I’m lucky enough to live close to home, it’s been a while since I’ve seen my mom, so I asked her if she wanted to spend a day at the theater with me.

Today, the buildings together house the majority of the first-year class, with an approximate capacity for 700.

This Thanksgiving was full of gratitude, coziness and nostalgia for me because I spent it revisiting a family I got to know back in 2019 and haven’t seen since: the Gatniks, the family that hosted me when I flew to the U.S. for the first time in my life back in ninth grade as part of an exchange trip.

It’s officially that time of year. It’s college admissions season, and many high school students are whittling down their college lists and submitting applications. In the last decade, college admissions have only become more competitive, especially at top universities like Hopkins. The University’s acceptance rate has substantially decreased from 20.4% in 2010 to 7% in recent years. We’re here today because we beat the odds. But, what now?
