Sexcapades: Heading south, part two

This week seems like the perfect time to discuss the other side of last week’s coin: the blow job. Some of you may have made it to Student Sexuality Information Services’ (SSIS) male-bodied pleasure talk on Wednesday (the female-bodied version, usually held in the spring, is one of my favorite events of the year), and […]


Men’s soccer defeats Springfield, women ‘s team shuts out Bowdoin

The men’s soccer squad capped off regular season home play with a 3-1 win against Springfield College on Wednesday. The win brings the Judges record to 8-4-1. Luke Teece ’12 started off the action when he scored in the 12th minute off a pass from Captain Kyle Gross ’11. The goal was Teece’s ninth of […]


Cross country teams rank top 10 at Albany invite

Brandeis men’s and women’s cross country teams finished in the top 10 at the 44th annual Albany University Invitational, coming in second and seventh respectively. The invitational included 25 teams. One notable win was Grayce Selig ’11, who claimed the invitational’s “athlete of the week” honor for the second year in a row.


Volleyball suffers four losses

Brandeis volleyball lost four matches this week, including matches in the Unicersity Athletic Association (UAA) round-robin where they were defeated by No. 2-ranked Emory University in the second day. The Judges had a rough start to the two-day long round-robin held in the Shapiro Gymnasium, falling in their first match to Case Western Reserve, 3-1. […]


Women’s tennis wins two consolation brackets at NEWITT

Brandeis sent six athletes to this year’s New England Women’s Intercollegiate Tennis Tournament Championships. Despite none winning outright, four left as champions in the Judges’ final event of the fall season. In a change from the more typical tennis tournament, each NEWITT match incorporated both singles and doubles competition. The doubles match was played first, […]


Gordy’s game guesses

Hey everyone, starting this week I’ll be preparing some picks for the upcoming NFL games. Word of warning: I do not consider myself to be a major sports expert. I will be making guesses based on what I know of teams as well as personal preferences. Cincinnati at Atlanta: Both teams lost last week. Since […]


Bewitched

Magic was in the air at Brandeis’ first-ever intercollegiate Quidditch game against Tufts University Sunday. The rules of intercollegiate Quidditch stick closely to those featured in JK Rowling’s “Harry Potter” novels—other than the whole flying thing. The game is played with seven players per team. There are three chasers, who throw the quaffle through the […]


Looking beyond the walls: Tory Fair discusses sculpture

Recently featured in Sculpture Magazine, Professor Tory Fair (FA) crafts figures that explore the subject of the body, nature and the imagination. Since spring, Professor Fair’s series of figures titled “In the wall” has exhibited at the LaMontagne Gallery in South Boston. Using her own body as a model for the figures, Fair has used […]


View of Fall

The trip leader, Cass, wanted to find a view of fall, with the trees in their splendid orange and red and yellow colors spread on the slopes of the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Robbie wanted to find a waterfall. I think we all wanted a break from the college bubble, away from work and […]


Going beyond the bubble: Wilson’s Diner

Wilson’s is hardly the place Brandeis students dress up for, wait for a late-night BranVan and head to with a huge group of friends. I bet most haven’t even heard of the Waltham diner; I certainly hadn’t when I stopped there for a morning breakfast Saturday. The place is small, rectangular and reminds one of […]
