On Thursday, March 13, the Department of Biology hosted Greg Lang, associate professor of biological sciences at Lehigh University.

Last week, I was riding the bus to the med campus with a friend when we started talking about why we ultimately chose to go to Hopkins. In explaining her college application process, she told me that she had only applied to schools that would excite her to attend; there were no “just in case” safeties on her list, she was content to try again in the next application cycle if it meant preserving her desire to attend a college where she could constantly have intellectually stimulating conversations with her peers.

When it comes to albums, I unfortunately almost always judge them by their covers. And when it came to Japanese-Canadian star Saya Gray’s debut album SAYA, my judgment did not steer me away. I strongly believe a good album cover should reflect the nature of a record while being visually appealing, and SAYA checks both these boxes. The primary focus of the cover is Gray herself, painted in a traditional Japanese portrait style. However, masterfully woven into this classic aesthetic are striking modern details, like heavy metallic jewelry and a tattoo. Likewise, the album’s tracklist fuses the old (traditional pop-rock acoustic riffs and soft vocals) with the new (electric beats and unconventional instruments).

On Friday, March 7, 2025, Stand Up for Science, a volunteer-based operation designed to protest perceived threats to scientific research and funding, gathered outside the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. The demonstration, which drew approximately 2,000 participants — including Hopkins students, lab groups and over 30 speakers from academia, hospitals and government — highlighted concerns over frozen research grants, the dismissal of government scientists and rollbacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
On Jan. 21, 2025 the Acting Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Benjamine Huffman announced a directive that schools and religious spaces are no longer protected from immigration law enforcement activities. This directive overturned a 2021 memorandum that stated schools, healthcare facilities, places of worship and social services establishments were protected spaces where immigration law enforcement operations should not be carried out.
On Feb. 20, the Baltimore City Department of Planning’s Urban Design and Architecture Advisory Panel (UDAAP) reviewed plans regarding the Alumni Memorial Residence (AMR) I residence hall renovations.
