For the past 10 years I’ve had the same summer tradition. Every year, as soon as July rolls around, I pick up “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone,” and make my way steadily through the seven books that still amaze me even after reading them so many times. It all started in 2007, when I

As the trees begin to shift colors and hoodies become more and more prevalent on campus, it seems we have no choice but say goodbye to summer — at least we get pumpkin spice lattes. Thankfully, Legends Nightclub, home of the iconic “hip-hop night,” aims to provide one final ode to the sunshine season. This
