Sydney Hackenberg | staff writer If you look at my Spotify Wrapped from the last couple of years, you would see Phoebe Bridgers and Billie Eilish at the top of my charts. However, there is an important distinction I should make about Eilish’s music: I’m referring to “Halley’s Comet” and “Happier Than Ever,” not “You Should See Me in a Crown.” There’s a clear difference … Continue reading Is my sad playlist the problem?
When students arrived back on campus it was hard not to notice the changes to the dining situation at Duquesne University. In Brottier Hall, a new bubble tea and dessert shop — Yo! Brew — opened up. Students with a meal plan noticed that Hogan not only got a face lift but also got late night dining. The Residence Hall Association hosted a Town Hall … Continue reading Staff Editorial: Food options have changed, for better…or for worse?
Diva KC | layout editor I spent much of my childhood in Kathmandu, Nepal. I distinctly remember the streets of my neighborhood, the friendly faces of my neighbors as they watched me run by and the hum of conversation in the air. Since I was 10 years old, New York City has more or less become my home. Yet, I continue to yearn and mourn … Continue reading Grieving thousands of miles away from home
Katherine Repasky | assistant editor “Hi! What’s your name?” A routine question. So, it is a little odd how often I find myself struggling to decide which name to answer back. Technically, I only have one name to pick: Katherine. It’s the name on my birth certificate, which means it is also on my license, the list my professors use during attendance, my email signature … Continue reading Kat’s Katalog; Don’t call me Kathy

Massachusetts Superior Court Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial in Lindsay Clancy’s case on Friday after … Continue reading Staff Editorial: We have a bone to pick with court conspiracies

Julia Halvas | staff writer I came to Duquesne with a set of expectations about how college would be — a plan. Well, it’s been three years since I started college, and everything has changed. Three years on the same campus, typing on the same computer. Three years of labs, heartbreaks and making new friends. Three years of finding out who I am and what … Continue reading Finally finding the “an” to my “plan” at school
Charlotte Shields-Rossi | a&e editor I had been putting off applying to graduate for a few weeks. It felt like the final step in something I had been working on for 3-and-a-half years. I questioned if I was ready. But ready or not, I couldn’t hide from the inevitable for long. Everything must come to an end after all. So last week, I logged into … Continue reading Charlotte’s Corner:9/8
Sydney Hackenberg | staff writer With fall around the corner, there is a lot of excitement and happenings for college students to look forward to: the Starbucks fall menu, the return of professional football and hockey games and the commencement of sweater weather. There is also an important responsibility of adult and college life that is often forgotten — voting. It seems simple — finding … Continue reading Vote! Your voice matters
