If one were to look up the definition of a traditional college football powerhouse, the Indiana Hoosiers would likely be the antithesis of that. Over the 127 seasons that Indiana has played, they have won only two conference titles, finished ranked in the final AP poll 7 times and won at least 10 games in a season once (last year). Until the last few weeks, Indiana had the most losses of any DI football program of all time, a stat that’s partially a product of how long the program has existed, but also due to perpetual mediocrity.

The FBI has arrested more than 30 players, coaches and other NBA affiliates in connection with an ongoing investigation into illegal gambling and insider betting. These indictments, which became unsealed in October, provide evidence of an alleged network of sports betting activity. They also exposed an underground poker operation, which they linked to organized crime. FBI director Kash Patel told the media that this was one of the largest gambling-related scandals in modern professional sports.

The longest U.S. government shutdown in history ended on Nov. 12 after 43 days, leaving millions of Americans facing interruptions to federal programs and funding. Throughout October, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which offers cash cards to Americans at or below 130% of the poverty line, allowing them to purchase basic food items, continued on reduced funding; however, any extended shutdowns beyond 30 days, can pose difficulties in maintaining SNAP benefits for recipients. In Maryland, 668,000 individuals, including 259,000 children, are enrolled in SNAP.

The Nexus of Open Science symposium took place on Nov. 14, bringing together leaders in neuroscience, clinical research, biomedical engineering and data science to explore topics ranging from FAIR data and software standards to improving the accessibility of AI tools in biomedical contexts like neuroimaging. Among the talks given, Georg Oeltzschner, Associate Professor of Radiology and Radiological Science at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, discussed a topic that may sound rather familiar to students with Organic Chemistry experience: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. To those without previous exposure, however, a NMR spectroscopy diagram may just look like a series of arbitrary peaks.

Call me biased, but the worst snub this year for the Grammy nominations was The Weeknd – Abel Tesfaye. As Abel’s #1 fan (you’re talking to someone who is seriously considering getting a “Stargirl” tattoo), this year’s Grammy nominations were nothing short of criminal.

Thanksgiving can be a tone-deaf holiday. As the year draws to a close, things don't seem to be going well for a lot of us. Whether our concerns are as grave as the political milieu of our country, as mundane yet end-of-the-world-inducing as finals or even as simple as adjusting to daylight savings time, there is just about always something picking at the deep space in our brains. And then — as if to counterbalance all this — comes a holiday that offers us the emotional equivalent of a no-good therapist: just eat and be grateful. Although Thanksgiving is sometimes seen as a superficial holiday preaching forced positivity, it is still an opportunity to appreciate small things and shape the holiday in ways that are unique to each of us.

The idea of being a “Pilates Princess” has never been so appealing. Under the stress of unending midterms (which should be called infinite-terms), it seems like taking care of one’s health is an impossible task. So imagine our excitement when we found out that Hopkins offers free Pilates classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays for all affiliates at the Rec.

Last week, my roommate and I were discussing our favorite early 2000s rom-coms (with “How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days” at the top of the list, obviously), when she asked, “Hailey, are you against plastic surgery?” This question may seem abrupt, but it represented the accumulation of critical bits and pieces of our conversation: Samantha Jones in Sex and the City (Season 2, Episode 3, “The Freak Show”), the popularization of discussing cosmetic procedures on social media and the ways in which the female body has been turned into a trend. Ultimately, we had a meaningful conversation about what it means to powerfully embody or succumb to femininity, and how it has looked for us and those we care about as we enter our twenties. Let’s map it out:

One Tuesday morning, while standing next to my club’s harm reduction card, I watched as an elderly woman in a wheelchair pushed herself forward, nearly passing me on her way to the Johns Hopkins Hospital. She looked up to greet me, then caught one glimpse of our banner which dons clip art images of a syringe, a small pipe with smoke coming out of it and Band-Aids.
