While I can forgive any disgust for the glittery hearts and the affront they appose to an institution that is the proving ground for so many future doctors, I simply cannot allow the rose to face the same kind of cynical scrutiny that we allow for other aspects of this holiday.

Amid the never-ending cycle of midterms, homework and people trying to convince me that “these will be the best years of my life,” Thanksgiving break gives me a moment to breathe and remember that getting eight hours of sleep is feasible.
The Student Government Association (SGA) held impeachment trials and discussed the possibility of submitting a proposal to protect undocumented Hopkins students during their weekly meeting on Tuesday.
For one, her sex tape was titled “1 night in Paris,” and, as someone who spends an inordinate amount of her time here at Hopkins studying poetry, I feel I am qualified to say that this is one of the most beautiful things I have ever read.
So what makes them so American? First of all they were created by an American man, an American doctor no less, named John Harvey Kellogg (Sound familiar?). His brother would later outstrip him in fame through the creation of the Kellogg company.
Only 38 percent of Americans aged 18 to 24 voted in the 2012 election according to the Campus Vote Project, the least out of all age demographics. In fact, almost 1.7 million Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 were not even registered to vote.

So of course the first thing I do, little nine-year-old chest all puffed up with the pride of knowing something you think others don’t, is show my new stockpile to my older brother.
Now, anyone who is an electrical engineer or just smarter than me can stop reading right now (no one needs to make a comment on how large a group of people that describes). I am about to spend quite a lot of time describing something very basic.

Amidst all the will-they-won’t-they drama between Chuck and Blair are scattered these complicated listings of painful side effects spoken over images of actors who can finally be happy after getting over their joint pain/diarrhoea/migraines. This direct to consumer (DTC) advertising is commonplace here in America. According to the World Health Organization, the only other place in the world where a soothing narrator talking about the possibility of anti-diarrheal medication making your anus fall out wouldn’t get a second look is New Zealand. That’s right, the U.S. has more in common with New Zealand than an official language and a history of exploiting indigenous peoples.
It is a vain struggle to tire out the young men and women who have just been dropped into the lawless world of college. Though these events may not have the effect desired by the Hopkins administration, I am more than happy to take advantage of them.

Self-described “coastal person,” Naadiya Hutchinson chose to spend her summer in the second most populous landlocked country in the world: Uganda. Working with the Rakai Health and Sciences Program, Hutchinson has been spending her precious time away from school researching HIV and working on her documentary on black identity. Though she didn’t know what to expect coming into the job, she came to love her time there as well as the many people she met and befriended.
