Letter from the Editor
Bringing you news from Adelphi University
The Delphian is proud to announce that we received Outstanding Organization at the 2021 Virtual Brown and Gold Awards. The awards took place on May 10. Thank you to all of the writers, staff and faculty who helped make this possible.
Hey everything! Both rain and shine, The Delphian always comes out. We are nearly at the final stretch of the semester, which is a scary thought. The spring semester always goes faster than the fall one, in my opinion. While it’s been a busy semester, it’s been a great semester. One month left, roughly, until some of us (me included) say our final goodbyes. But don’t fret! We have one more issue after this one to hold you over.
This time around, we have covered many topics. The annual Women’s Leadership Conference was a big success this year and you can read all about it in News. In features, consider taking the class Healing and the Arts and also learn how to handle your stress. These topics can even be intersected.
Politics have been a revolving topic because of it being election year, so let’s hear some opinions about it. Also, check out our spring athlete spotlight in sports.
In this issue we have also reported on a major ongoing occurrence having to do with hateful speech on campus. As Sentwali Bakari, Adelphi's vice president for Student Affairs and Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging, said in the article that starts on page one, any form of hate is not tolerated on Adelphi’s campus. It is important to be informed of what students have been reporting, as well as university efforts to ensure an open dialogue so we can have more of an awareness of these issues.
As we move toward graduation and our final issue of the year, if you or someone you know is interested in being a part of The Delphian for the 2024-2025 school year, please email me at elizabethpanchyk@mail.adelphi.edu! We’d love to have you on our team, whether you want to write, take photos or attend important events. Your interest is always welcome.
Thank you for reading Issue #8. Our next and final issue to close the semester will be extra special. I’ll see you in the next one!
