post- cards [narrative]
By Sarah Frank | March 5Imagine your text messages were for sale. Imagine a girl, much younger than the usual patron of an antique store, digging through a box of your most intimate correspondences.

well-arranged [feature]
By Samira Lakhiani | March 5The road between Western and non-Western culture diverges at several points. Most notably, it splits at the core values of individualism and collectivism.

on equilibria [feature]
By Ellyse Givens | February 261. In game theory, players are assumed to be rational actors, meaning they make the “move” that best benefits them given the choices of other players.

this is our little while [A&C]
By Chelsea Long | February 26A table, a desk covered with magazines and loose sheets of paper, posters calling for revolution.

in the shadow of the city [A&C]
By Alyssa Sherry | February 26I’m running down the beach with a girl who’s never seen the Atlantic. The sky is blue and unrelenting. Our hands burn with ice from where we dipped them in the waves.

finding aid [feature]
By Alissa Simon | February 19In Alumnae Hall, above the strange, too-empty passages and old couches, there is a small suite of rooms that you will almost certainly miss unless you are looking for it. It’s one of those tucked-away corners of campus where computers feel out of place, and you can still clearly visualize women in ...
