Happy holiday season CMC! As we make our way through the best time of the year, I’m sure you don’t have time to think about much other...

From fielding hilarious questions about your country to stuffing your suitcase full of Amazon items that your family obsessively orders to your CMC address every time you go home, there are certain struggles that every international student at CMC has experienced. As an international student from Vancouver, Canada, being closer to home does not make these issues any less prominent. I decided to interview a few other international students on campus about their experiences goi

After many sleepless nights and endless coffee runs, members of the Class of 2019 finally handed in their thesis for fall. And what better way to celebrate than with a bottle of champagne each, making up for all the parties they missed when they were trapped in Poppa and Ryal.

With the second annual Sex Week quickly approaching, the CMC Advocates for Survivors of Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence are scrambling to raise $20,000 to fund their event, scheduled to take place from October 29 to November 1. Advocates intend to bring in a wide range of speakers to discuss topics such as healing, pleasure, and sex after trauma; sexual health from a medical doctor; and how to engage in safe sex as a person of queer identity. The week will culminate in a

Claremont McKenna College announced plans to withdraw from Keck Science Department to create an independent program with an emphasis in interdisciplinary science in two statements to students and faculty Thursday. This decision comes after two failed attempts to expand the facilities at Keck, and many of the professors said they were surprised by the announcement. Keck will continue to be a shared department between Pitzer and Scripps Colleges. All three colleges have been me

The tragic shooting in Pittsburgh yesterday has left a dark cloud over me. While every mass shooting is truly awful, the anti-Semitic intent hit home particularly hard for me. This was an attack on my community and my people, the deadliest attack against Jews in United States history. While I am not particularly religious in my Judaism, I said the Mourner’s Kaddish, the prayer for those recently lost, to myself as I read the names of the victims this morning. I am fearful th

Claremont McKenna College's annual Monte Carlo was in full swing on Saturday as students from across the 5Cs gathered in their best dresses for an evening under the chandeliers.
