I implore current students as well as representatives from notable BU departments to come together this offseason and declare a multi-year joint vision for improving school spirit at BU. This should start with the men’s hockey team, which has a storied tradition, talent and excitement that more students should experience.
Thousands of BU students use Google Drive daily for class assignments, extracurriculars and personal projects. By capping their storage so low at 15 gigabytes, students will be forced to remove files from their drives to fit the quota or face losing any data that pushes storage over the limit.
Inspired by the recent op-ed published by March For Our Lives at UNC-Chapel Hill, leaders of Students Demand Action at BU invite students to join the fight against gun violence, too.
I want BU to be a place where students can feel safe. I want BU to be a place where the administration cares about its students. And I want BU to be a place where, if anyone is forced to be a survivor, they can feel supported by their school.
After finding nothing but support and community in LGBTQ+ spaces, I found myself at an extremely low point in my life explicitly because of the Queer Activist Collective.
It’s time to call on the BU administration to adopt the The Survivors' Bill of Rights and remind BU that they have a responsibility to ensure the safety of its students.
Yonaton Manor was correct that the Mapping Project is antisemitic. But as the criticisms of the project linked above indicate, this is not specifically because of the Mapping Project’s anti-Zionism. Rather, it is because the project blames Jewish community institutions for a range of social ills including general US imperialism, militarized policing and gentrification.
The Mapping Project is an online interactive map of Massachusetts that lists roughly 500 local institutions connected to the Boston Jewish community, but the information it displays and rhetoric it promotes should be known for what it truly is — bigotry against Jews.
