UNH Men’s Basketball Falls to Harvard 86-75

UNH came home empty-handed after a high-scoring first half, which had visiting fans hopeful for the Wildcats’ first win vs. Harvard since 2004. The tip-off seemed to be the only thing going Harvard’s way in the first 20 minutes. UNH was ahead on the scoreboard for all but 19 seconds of the entire half. Three-point shooting proved to be the difference in the first half, as the Wildcats made three of their first four attempts and jumped to a quick nine-point lead.

Sam's Best Movies to Watch to Get in the Fall Spirit

Just because Halloween is over, doesn’t mean Fall is. In fact, I think Fall really starts at Halloween (especially with global warming not cooling down the planet until late October now). For those who want to get into a cozy fall vibe with movies, I will be recommending a few, in no particular order. These films can be slightly spooky, but mostly have a warm and cozy atmosphere. So grab some fuzzy slippers, pour yourself a fall beverage (maybe an apple cider mimosa, warm cider, or even hot cocoa), and settle in for some of what I think are the best films to watch in the fall season.

The Future of Journalism at UNH: A Brand New Major

Things at the University of New Hampshire are taking a turn for the better within the English Department. Last year, the department announced that they were making a change to the current English/Journalism major. While several students did enroll this year, there was a severe decline in the enrollment of this particular major. Recently, the English department decided to reinvent the love for journalism by including it in a brand new major: Journalism & Media Studies. It will be structured as an interdisciplinary program, meaning that there is a focus on two main subjects. The major is set to include the same core lessons previously seen in the old major, but with increased focus on digital communication, media analysis, and theory as well.

“Worldwide”: Snõõper’s Contemporary Absurdism

I’m a believer that each decade’s polarizing musical phenomena are direct results of their overarching vibes. That may sound like an idle description, but what is music if not an assemblage of parts designed to create a given vibe? These vibes, however, only exist because of preceding ones. For example, the spiritual augmentation of the ‘60s couldn’t have emerged if not for the rebellious 12-bar blues of the ‘50s; the 2000s’ internet-underscored blend of lo-fi and lavish sounds wouldn’t exist without the technological revolution of the ‘80s. 

How UNH’s $750k cut to its library system is affecting students and staff
