Happy fall, Panthers!

​

If there’s one thing that you’ll get from the articles we have in our second issue of the semester, it’s that there’s always something happening at Adelphi and students who want to make their voices heard about it all. And if that isn’t enough for you, there’s always national news, which sometimes finds its way to our own campus.

In this issue, we have a good deal of articles covering current events, from the conflict in the Middle East, to more local issues and recaps about the current election season.

 

If all the division understandably puts you down a bit, don’t worry. We have some uplifting features about teamwork and organizations that bring students together, too.

 

Interested in hosting your own podcast? You can join AU PAWS Radio, which has restarted after a few years-long hiatus. But if you want to learn more about them before sitting in front of a microphone, read our feature on page 5. We also have some pieces that might bring subjects you didn’t know about to your attention, like the article about “ghost jobs” on page 8 and a breakdown of the Chevron Deference on page 9. I know that I learned a lot while editing this issue. 

​

For those looking to keep up to date with culture and trends, this issue has an article about AI music on page 8 and, just in time for the new season, some tips about fall fashion on page 6. There are also always professors at Adelphi who have something noteworthy going on, too, with this issue featuring Professor Peggy Cassidy’s new special topics class and Professor Brittany Baldwin’s art exhibit, which can be seen on pages 4 and 6, respectively. 

​

In our sports section on pages 11 and 12, we have two soccer-related articles about our university’s men’s team and the women’s club team, as well as a roundup of our players' accomplishments. As always, our writers and editorial staff deserve a big thanks for making our paper be informative and creative, and thank you for reading! Make sure to follow our Instagram, @the_delphian, for updates about the paper.
