When we get to college, it’s easy to assume that everything will go smoothly. We’ve heard so much about the “college experience” in movies, we hear about our parents’ “good old days” and we look on social media and see people seemingly having the time of their lives. But what we don’t hear about so often is that college is truly a huge transition. It requires a new sense of independence — whether it be doing your laundry weekly or making sure to set a reminder in your phone for that student org meeting.

One of the world’s biggest podcasts has, very recently, officially endorsed the practice of therapy. Alexandria Cooper, host of the podcast “Call Her Daddy,” has created a loud buzz around the term, and for good reason. While Cooper usually keeps an eccentric tone throughout her work, her intense seriousness is an indication to listeners that she truly feels passionate about her point: Everyone that has the ability to go to therapy definitely should — and this should be a service we make more accessible.

For the last week, Hwang Dong-hyuk’s “Squid Game” has dominated my life. My mother, sister and I attempted to dissect the tiniest details of the Korean survival drama for the entirety of an hour-long road trip. A friend and I discussed Halloween costume ideas, and then subsequently scoured Amazon for the now infamous green tracksuits that figure as key imagery of the show. At the beginning of a work call, my supervisor opened with, “Have you watched ‘Squid Game’ yet?”

A dramatic display of weather disasters across North America this summer underscored the volatility of a changing climate. Heads turned northwest as lethal heat and wildfires enveloped the upper Pacific coast. Heads turned south, then slowly northeast as Hurricane Ida wrought havoc from the oil wells of coastal Louisiana to the subway tunnels of New York City.

The hospitals shut down within days. No one shows up to work anymore, and no one could blame them in light of the awful, unnamed virus spreading everywhere. The crucial supply chains – for protective gear, for food, for gas, for everything — were also crippled. Hardly anyone is leaving their house, and those that do encounter apocalyptic scenes.

Recently, Netflix came out with their third and final season of “Sex Education,” a show in which the son of a sex therapist starts a commercial “sex education” clinic at his school in order to subsidize the crappy education the school gives. Touching on subjects as common as the pressure to lose one's virginity to things such as Vaginismus, the show truly accomplishes what its leading character Otis seeks to do: educate teenagers about the subjects they thought were taboo. Rotten Tomatoes says the new season is as “raunchy and riotous as ever,” but even with its shockingly explicit scenes and British setting, the show is much more socially valuable than another raunchy go.

For all the time spent discussing parity in major sports, there have always been certain teams and programs associated with winning and success. America has several premier sports franchises that have been ingrained into culture as bastions of success, such as the LA Lakers, the Boston Celtics, the New England Patriots, the Green Bay Packers, the Yankees, the Alabama Crimson Tide and more.

Upon returning to campus, the most common back-to-school question I was asked was: “What did you do over the summer?” In short, I would always respond: “I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), without being a CNA.” While this description confused my peers, this was the best way to summarize my summer job.

On one of my unproductive days, I stumbled upon a video on YouTube by a standup comedian. He talked about his experience being dark-skinned in Indian society. As funny as his anecdotes were, his remarks resonated with me — about how people assumed that he was a chain-snatcher because was dark-skinned, how his mother growing up would give him almond milk to make him fairer, how his relatives made fun of him for his skin color. It hit painfully close to home. Most of what he went through, I did too, and still do.

Throughout my first two years of college, the voice in my head constantly told me I should drop out. I was unhappy with my trajectory in school, I felt socially unfulfilled and, ultimately, I felt like the college experience was a lie.

Quarterback Graham Mertz was terrible in the red zone against Penn State. Once the Badgers got inside the 10, he struggled with the simplest part of playing quarterback: handing the ball off. In that game, Mertz fumbled the exchange with Chez Melusi from the eight-yard line and would later trip Melusi on another handoff against Eastern Michigan.

What would a silent world sound like? Perhaps a world void of any form of communication, shackled by empty words, numb from stillness, dismantled from literature. Or perchance a world whose ears are simply deaf to the voices of those in need.

Time stood still for one year and a half. For most students, class just became something to entertain themselves for a few hours per day. Doing the bare minimum had never been easier than it was last year in the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Some students went from turning on their computer and muting the Zoom to do other things during class to a full-fledged return to in-person instruction, and this has been an adjustment for many UW-Madison students.
