With UMass Dining being the #1 in dining, any meal is great but here are my picks for the best meals on campus.

Frank:

1. Grilled Cheese

The classic comfort food is always available at Frank so whenever the craving arises you know where to go.

2. Hard Ice Cream

The other dining halls have soft-serve or frozen yogurt but Frank is the only one that has hard ice cream. It is always great to finish a meal off with a big scoop of vanilla.

Hamp:

3. Omelet

The made-to-order omelets at Hamp are my go to meal when I wake up early enough to eat breakfast before class.

4. Tacos

The soft tacos at Hamp are one of my favorites because of the fresh homemade tortillas that they are served on.

Berk:

5. Mac and Cheese

Fridays are my favorite days at Berk because on Fridays they serve Mac and Cheese in the pasta bar. I love spicing it up by mixing in extra cheese and hot sauce.

6. Burger and Fries

It is nice to eat all of the fancier options but sometimes it is nice to keep it simple with a burger and fries, especially when they have the crispy ones.

7. Waffles

Waffles are one of my favorite late-night meals at Berk!

8. Pizza

Every dining hall has pizza, but Berk’s pizza is the best. The crispy crust and the multiple options make it the best on campus.

9. Pasta

I love pasta and Berk is my favorite place to fill my pasta craving! The pasta bar offers three options for sauce, two types of noodles, and the main dish that changes daily that make it easy to change it up.

10. Late Night: Chicken Tenders and Mozzarella Sticks

This is arguably the best late night option. Make sure to get to Berk early and hop in line early to try to avoid long lines.

11. Late Night: Taco Salad

Another great late night option! Who doesn’t love tacos in a deep-fried shell?

These are just some of the great meal options that are on campus! Don’t be afraid to try new things and explore all the great dining options UMass has to offer!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
