Who doesn't love to gossip? The college app “FIZZ” is all about starting conversations and spreading information, but how long do we have until this app fizzes out?  Founded in 2020 by Teddy Solomon and Ashton Cofer, Fizz is a social media network that is only accessible to college students. Students create anonymous posts and upvote fellow posts. Currently, the app is used in around 100 colleges and aims to reach 250 by 2024. Founded by investors, the app has gained $41 mill

Though the photo on my LinkedIn page is a selfie from my freshman year of college in my first dorm room, I am now a rising senior. As I approach my final two semesters of my undergraduate studies, I look back on my experience and I wish I had done several things differently. All of my experiences have taught me something about myself, but if I had the opportunity to re-do my undergraduate years then I definitely would. But, since time travel is impossible, I’d like to share s

Being in college can be expensive, but buying the things you want and need doesn’t have to be! Here are some of my favorite student discounts that help me save money every semester: 1. Student Beans Student Beans is an app and website that offers exclusive discount codes for students. Just sign up with your student email to unlock deals from popular brands across fashion, tech, food, and more. 2. UNiDAYS Similar to Student Beans, UNiDAYS provides student discounts for brands

Internships are often seen as gateways to opportunity. There are chances to gain experience, build connections, and get a foot in the door, but for many young people, especially those from marginalized backgrounds, internships can also highlight just how exclusive some professional spaces still are. As some organizations are still upholding their commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts amidst the current presidential administration, it’s important to look

I know from personal experience how hard school can be as a student with ADHD. I would forget assignments, do things at the last minute, and have a hard time focusing in class. It wasn’t easy, but I developed tactics that helped me do well in school. These tips are certainly not “one size fits all,” but these are 9 things that work for me. I hope you find them useful! Make school work engaging:   The more engaging and enjoyable something is, the easier it is for me to focus.

Even something as simple as an outfit for the first day of school can be a status symbol among students, regardless of grade level. Every school year, there is pressure on students to keep up with trends. Of course, there is nothing wrong with wanting to look nice for the first day, but the need to impress other classmates can lead to overconsumption: buying way more than you actually need or use. Because of apps like TikTok and Instagram, trends come and go faster than ever.

My local library never stood out to me as a child. It didn’t smell of old vintage paperbacks or look like the perfect autumnal picture of academia that I would see in the movies. It stood on the main highway of my small Texas town, next to the courthouse and public pool. But there was always a piece of magic in every library visit. Whether it was beaming as I turned in my completed summer library challenge to the librarian or sneaking upstairs to the young adult novel section

Where were you back when being an adult became “adulting”? How many times have you proclaimed that “you’re just a girl” in the face of inconvenient responsibility? And are you often called back to the incoherent sitcom advice of Carrie and Miranda or Abbi and Ilana? In the mid-2010s, television peaked for twenty-something comedies that gave levity and brilliance to the messiness of this era in life. Broad City , Girls, and the oh-so-rewatched SATC  taught us that friendship c

Meg Elsier’s Milestone Moment at Baby’s All Right Rising Indie-Rock artist Meg Elsier delivered an unforgettable performance at Baby’s All Right in Brooklyn, a milestone in her journey, marking her first solo show since relocating from Nashville. As the opening act for UK artist and producer Martin Luke Brown, Meg set the tone with an opener that surely left the audience eager to learn what’s next for NYC’s newest rockstar. Meg captivated the audience with her tender vocals,

Bows, ballet flats, and suburban softness are suddenly high strung, high fashion. In a fashion week that often prides itself on spectacle and razor-sharp reinvention, Sandy Liang’s Fall/Winter 2026 show oddly felt like a warm exhale in your hometown neighborhood. Cozy, nostalgic, and delightfully suburban, Liang once again proved that comfort doesn’t have to mean compromise — and that whimsy, when handled with sincerity, can be quietly radical on a New York runway. The collec

If you adhere to the yeehaw agenda, 2025 is your year — which is why I’m having my hay day  (pun intended). If you have eyes or an Instagram account, you’ve surely noticed Western wear on the rise, from last year’s runway looks forecasting 2025 to the current New York Fashion Week trends. Big-name brands like Ralph Lauren, Miu Miu, and Prada have all put their boots on the ground, subscribing to the country-inspired wave of fashion now hanging on racks across the U.S. So, who

Seeing an artist live that you know will make it big one day is truly something special. On August 16th, at the Sultan Rooftop in Brooklyn, I had the pleasure of experiencing Pearl live.

While most production companies are focused solely on making content for the big screen, American High saw the potential to grow on the smaller screen. The Syracuse-based production company, founded by Jeremy Garelick and Will Phelps, was founded on the passion to make this generation’s teen comedies. Their dedication was solidified when they bought an abandoned high school to operate as their home base for their production office and filming location for future projects. The

Growing up in the 2000s and 2010s meant exploring the internet with curiosity and few restrictions, often stumbling upon random websites by chance. There were no TikTok game recommendations, and Instagram was in its infancy. My after-school ritual in grade school consisted of sitting on my family’s computer playing hours and hours of online computer games, all while soaking my feet in my Orbeez Soothing Spa. Looking back now, this was  the life, an at-home foot spa, accompani

A look into some of the internet’s most creepy (and creative) tales

( Slight Warning: Spoilers for The Walking Dead, Stranger Things, and The Bear )  On May 6, 2004, millions of New Yorkers gathered in Times Square to experience the season finale of arguably the most famous sitcom of all time: Friends. After the episode aired, folks presumably chatted about their thoughts with their friends and family on the subway ride home, and furthermore with their coworkers in the break room the next day. Then we all moved on.  Television has a way of

Tumblr and WeHeartIt led me to believe that it was largely a fashion aesthetic, known for its frills and schoolgirl sensibilities. I quickly learned that it was much more than that.

Country music, conservatism, and capitalism all seem to be the new trend.

Is the age of Tumblr, TikTok, and Beauty trends destroying us? We talk with Therapist Kelsey Dagen about the real cost is for ever-evolving media.

While indulging in the past can feel good at the moment, it raises the question: Are we building a future worth being nostalgic for someday?

The best way to pregame the weekend is by going to a Thursday night show. That’s exactly what I did on July 17th–spent the night in an intimate East Village venue, seeing some awesome rising NYC rockstars.

After seeing James Gunn’s interpretation of Superman, I am glad to say good riddance to Zack Snyder’s reign of dark, hard-to-see, gritty “realistic” movies. For a long time, the Snyderverse seemed to be the only hope for DC to break into the mainstream, but they always fell short. The issue with Snyder’s films was the fact that they were always so grim and gloomy compared to Marvel’s free-spirited, comedic, action-filled fun (and star power). Sure, the point may have been to

From a young age, we are asked what we want to be when we grow up, and our minds are filled with endless possibilities. As the years pass, those dreams slowly fade, until one day we are left with a pervasive sense of panic. Having no clue of who we are and what we want to do with the rest of our lives. Some people look back at their 20s, often through rose-tinted glasses, calling them "the best years of their lives", but in truth, they might just be the scariest, often filled
