The University’s recent construction project, the forthcoming Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Institute (DSAI), promises to bring together experts and students “develop data science and AI” and “accelerate breakthroughs.” However, the project has faced significant pushback from community members and students who worry it will heighten the University’s community influence, raise housing costs and harm the environment. While the construction of DSAI has potential benefits for the University and the city at large, Hopkins should not disregard the needs of the surrounding Baltimore community to realize these.

As the twin suns of Tatooine shone down on Rey Skywalker and her spherical droid companion BB8 at the end of 2019’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, evil had been vanquished, and a new day of the Disney+ TV series would fill the empty void in the digital galaxy to satisfy fans of the iconic series. That is, until recent interviews revealed a potential 10th episode of the saga, one that could have changed everything. This is The Hunt For Ben Solo.

With the long-awaited opening of the Bloomberg Student Center comes an arguably more exciting addition: a lineup of new campus dining options!

Saturday nights have me craving food that feels like an escape from the weekday routine. After a long week, there is something special about sitting down for a meal that feels both comforting and exciting. So last week, my friends and I set out on a mission for something flavorful and a little different: traditional Indian food. After scrolling through countless options around Baltimore and reading mouthwatering reviews, we landed on Sangam Indian Cuisine in Cockeysville, a cozy spot known for bringing the vibrant flavors of South India to Maryland.

The 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show was my Super Bowl (sorry, Sports Editors…). From the shimmering stage at Steiner Studios in New York City to the performances by Karol G, Madison Beer, Missy Elliott and TWICE, every moment was a feast for the senses. This year’s show wasn’t just about lingerie, but storytelling and star power.

I see her before she sees me. She lifts me from the desk, fingertips brushing the smudges from my lens, and for a moment, the world sharpens.

I don’t remember when exactly I wanted to learn how to make food, but I do remember why (other than the fact that I thought it was a useful skill and more economical). I liked eating tasty food, so trying to make it was the natural progression in my mind. My journey began with cooking.

It’s common knowledge that the job of Hopkins students is to complain about every exam and administrative decision ever made. I’ve found myself starting to participate in this culture as well. “Why was the orgo exam harder, even with the increased grade boundary? Why are my portions at Nolan’s so much smaller this year?” These questions have the tendency to burrow themselves into my mind and distract me from my goals. So, the skill I want to develop is not physical, but more of a mindset of gratitude and awareness: the ability to both appreciate and scrutinize my current situation. I want to always start by appreciating how lucky I am to be in the particular time and place I exist in — a university brimming with opportunities, research and innovation — no matter how many stressors are taking up my headspace. Secondly, I want to be aware of the way I spend each moment and have the question of “Is this really worth it?” present in my mind. I can absorb endless books and videos about the effective use of time, but none of these ideas will gel if I don’t constantly remind myself of them. With this mindset, I will be able to direct my time to my needs instead of being directed by the ticking clock.

The moment I touch down at Istanbul Airport, my first stop will most likely be a duty-free shop. I search for the shiny red “DUTY FREE” sign right after passport control. Eventually, my eyes meet with (seemingly) infinite boxes of chocolate, bottles of liquor and cartons of tobacco, yet none of them (even discounted Valentino bags or deals on Benefit Cosmetics makeup products) distract me from my target. Instead of paying attention to such trivialities (including my back pain from a 9-hour-long flight), I drag my extra-large suitcases until I notice the fragrance section and eventually locate Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) to acquire a new bottle of perfume. I notice Black Opium’s glittery exterior and the golden logo on Libre, but neither of them is what I’m searching for.
