The semester may just be kicking into gear, but the spring sports are just starting to bloom and the winter sports are putting up some chilling wins. It’s the best of both worlds: thrilling lacrosse matches with a snowy and gorgeous Homewood campus as a backdrop, or an indoor gym where you can cheer in comfort.
To me, my memory of March 2018 sounds like the sizzling of my mother’s cooking in the room over, my fingers rested upon the calloused wooden table as I sat down, waiting after setting up the table. March of 2018 smells like the wildflowers and fresh soil beneath my feet after playing freeze tag at the park. I remember the feeling of the breeze on my skin and the metallic monkey bars in my hands.

Iranian citizens have been living in a brutal regime of oppression for almost half a century. This regime has violently opposed all attempts at democratization and has consistently demonstrated a merciless attitude toward dissent. Any acts of protest or revolt against the authorities are met with extreme force used to suppress such activities. Ordinary citizens are forced to suffer from crippling poverty and widespread abuses of human rights. In light of the recent uprisings in Iran, The News-Letter argues that Hopkins students should stay informed on the nation’s unrest and support their peers who may be affected by the conflict.
The first week of February is cold but promising; students are regaining their academic footing as the spring semester starts, and others are looking forward to the warmth the rest of the month will bring as Valentine’s Day approaches. Regardless of your relationship status, if you’re seeking any form of comfort from the harsh snow and wind this week, we have media recommendations for you to sink your senses in.
Between the canceled classes and the biting chill, this second week back has been a bit of a frozen blur. While there was hope for "Reduced Operations" to last through Friday, the reopening on Wednesday meant a quick return to the grind and a lot of effort spent avoiding black ice. With the forecast promising more snow, leaning into the reality of the weather feels like the best move. Instead of trying to power through, the focus is on staying warm, keeping things low-effort and finding a genuine reason to enjoy being stuck indoors.
Despite an incredibly cold and snowy beginning to the Spring semester, Hopkins sports got off to a characteristically hot start, registering several key wins!
On Jan. 27, the Student Government Association (SGA) held a General Body Meeting to go over an office hours proposal and event funding considerations, prior to the designated cohort time.
I’ve struggled to make sense of the news lately. The systemic, administration-led violence against immigrants has resulted in thousands of families torn apart, funneled into dehumanizing detention centers, all in the name of “law and order.” President Trump made his promises of mass deportations abundantly clear during his electoral campaign, but never could I have imagined the extent of his administration’s cruelty in carrying out his agenda.
My signature “early riser” alarm probes the depths of my subconscious, infiltrating my dreams with an irritant tap, softly encouraging a labored rise off the Twin XL and onto my feet. Yawning, I scratch my sleep-deprived eyes before opening my phone to what is always a text from my dad:
Letters Without Limits, founded by students at Hopkins and Brown University, connects volunteers with palliative care and hospice patients to co-create “Legacy Letters.” These letters capture memories, values and lessons that patients wish to share, preserving stories that might otherwise be lost. By honoring these voices and preserving legacies, Letters Without Limits hopes to affirm the central role of humanism in medicine, reminding us that every patient is more than their illness and that their voices deserve to be heard. As you read these powerful Legacy Letters, we invite you to pause, reflect and recognize the beauty in every life.
True to my Minnesotan roots, I grew up playing hockey. I spent my nights lacing up my skates and my Saturday mornings shooting pucks in the garage. I often tell my friends I am more comfortable on ice than I am on land.
