February is promising; students are regaining their academic footing as the spring semester starts and 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 comfort from the snow and wind this week, we have media recommendations for you to sink your senses in.
AI has become prevalent in a remarkably short amount of time. It regularly infiltrates our day-to-day lives while industries wrestle with the ethics and legality of using it in their businesses.

In a world that seems to have lost its creative spark, doomed to forever remake the same stories in an eternal cycle of references, Guillermo del Toro creates Frankenstein — one of the most adapted works of all time.

From Nov. 6 to Nov. 9, the Hopkins theater program presented show-stopping performances of “Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde.” Written by Moisés Kaufman and directed by Sean Elias, the show offered a unique look at the downfall of Wilde’s career and an introspective view on the role of the artist in society.
Another picture about a woman slowly losing her sanity in an unhappy relationship doesn’t exactly reinvent the wheel of storytelling.

Slowly but surely, we are inching our way closer to the end of the semester. These final few weeks come fast. During those precious days of rest leading up to and during fall recess, we encourage you to seize the time to relax and unwind with some of these hand-picked, timely media recommendations.
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.
On Oct. 3, the moment I got to press play on The Life of a Showgirl at midnight, I felt something completely electrifying: excitement, nerves and, above all, the certainty that I was about to witness a turning point in the music industry.

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 to satisfy fans of the iconic series. That is, until interviews revealed a potential 10th episode of the saga, one that could have changed everything.
We had already seen Khalid in the summer at World Pride 2025, so the excitement that Hopkins finally had a somewhat mainstream artist for Hoptoberfest 2025 dwindled between us. Nevertheless, I donned my favorite pair of jeans and halter-top combo, and I giddily ran to the end of the line on Oct. 24.
