Thursday, Nov. 14th, I attended the 29th anniversary of Smith Celebration, an annual event on the Wilson House steps on the Quad which celebrates love in all forms.
The Sophian
Last Thursday, Nov. 7, representatives from the Sophian braved the cold and took a trip into downtown Northampton to Haymarket Cafe to meet the local writing group participating in National Novel Writing Month. Fondly known as ‘NaNoWriMo,’ this annual national tradition presents a seemingly simple goal — attempt to write 50,000 words of an original manuscript within the thirty days that November provides. As many who have attempted can attest, it is not as simple as it sounds. NaNoWriMo is an online based project that is supported by hundreds of local writing groups just like the one we met in the Haymarket Cafe.
Every morning, we wake up to our alarms and choose an outfit to conquer the day in. Maybe it’s skinny jeans and a t-shirt, a long dress with chunky heels or overalls paired with (to Tan France’s deep chagrin) crocs and socks. We might wear a certain sweater when giving a presentation, or a cozy scarf on a gray, chilly day. These fashion choices paint a picture of who we are and how we are living our lives.

Microaggressions are a symptom of a much larger problem in our thought process. First of all, the only thing small about microaggressions is the amount…
This fall, Duct Tape Productions (DTP) is following up its spring production of “The Addams Family” with another movie-based show they hope will entertain. From Thursday, Nov. 14 to Saturday, Nov. 16, Smithies will have the opportunity to see "Shrek the Musical" in all its verdant (and, reportedly, heartwarming) glory.

Robert L. Lynch, presidente de Americans for the Arts, una vez escribió: “Las artes dan voz a los que no tienen voz. Las artes ayudan a transformar las comunidades estadounidenses y, como digo a menudo, el resultado puede ser un mejor niño, una mejor ciudad, una mejor nación y ciertamente un mundo mejor.” A lo largo de la historia, humanos se han conectado y emocionado a través de la expresión personal que es el arte. Y el jueves 10 de octubre, los miembros y estudiantes de la comunidad de Smith se conectaron con la exhibición del Museo de Arte del Smith College, Defiant Vision: Prints & Poetry de Munio Makuuchi, a través del uso de la poesía.
