Although 100 days didn’t exactly take place with 100 days left (87…but who’s counting), the class of 2019 still danced the night away! Check out some photos of the event courtesy of Krystal Sung ‘19.

Anticipating being bored as winter break dragged on, a couple of friends and I planned a road trip for the last week of break. The plan...

We are all well-accustomed to the presence of Public Safety officers on our campus. Not many students, though, know the story behind these familiar faces in uniform. Just like us, they are all here for a reason, filled with passion and love for the Claremont McKenna College community. After spending a few hours with our PSOs filled with subtle jokes, interesting stories and endless laughter, I have come to know our officers for their quirks, their hobbies and, to put it very

'Gesamtkunstwerk,' a term inspired by the German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer, refers to the total embodiment of dynamic human experience in a singular body of art. While applying to all mediums, including architecture and film, the term is predominantly associated with classical music. Richard Wagner, an influential proponent of this theory, espoused the virtues of traditional composition; to him, music represented the highest form of emotional expression. However, the r

The following email was sent to the CMC community around noon Tuesday, February 19.

When I arrived at Claremont McKenna College my first year, I felt the way many students feel when they get to college: overwhelmed. But as I settled into my new home in Fawcett 503, I soon found an abundance of things I loved about living at CMC: an amazing roommate, a quick two minute walk to 6 a.m. cross country practice, a prime view of the sunset every night from the fifth floor, and the quiet study space just a few floors down. Yet, as my highly anticipated and idealized

ASCMC officially kicked off the first ever “Affinity for Love” Week on Sunday.

Salomé Lefort ‘21, ASCMC Diversity Inclusion Chair, spearheaded the effort with unused funds from a Kravis Lab retreat last semester for affinity groups. Lefort said she had been wanting to create

“Cases and Controversies: Pivotal Legal Questions of Our Times” Thursday, Jan. 25, 2018 As the senior legal analyst for CNN, staff writer for The New Yorker and Supreme Court aficionado, Jeffrey Toobin had a lot to say. On a general level, Mr. Toobin gave a very engaging talk. He’s clearly comfortable in front of crowds and definitely had the audience laughing throughout the talk. Many times that laughter could be attributed to how unapologetic and unrestrained he was in his

I began my endeavor into recreational writing––first penning news articles and then poems––during my junior year of high school. Shortly after I began, I started sharing my work through my school’s literary magazine and newspaper. I continued publishing until I went abroad my junior year of college to Bali, Indonesia in the fall of 2017. Before my jettison into Indonesia, I recognized Bali as a vacation hotspot but knew nothing else of the country or island: not that it is th
