…Now and then, I stumble upon a new hobby. I have a track record of dropping commitments soon after I decide I want to pursue them, which usually makes me doubt the next will stick for long. Growing up, I was a ballerina, a tap dancer and a cheerleader. I quit all of them adamant that there were other things that needed my time. These “hobbies” are just distractions, I would tell myself. I was partially right, though. I never truly l...…

…My siblings and I have been best friends since I can remember. Attending the same schools together, traveling back and forth between our mom’s and dad’s and constantly fighting has strongly bonded us. Though the three of us were born within a three-year period, our experiences of identity realization have been vastly different. Up until 2010, we all went to St. Patrick’s Catholic School in Joliet, Illinois. Despite being in an are...…

…7-Opinion F our weeks into the new school year, the word burnout may seem like an inappropriate term to describe the typical University of Michigan student. The transition back to in-person school from online classes and extracurriculars, however, is challenging. In the past year, clubs and classes often were less structured and offered much more flexibility with asynchronous lectures, open- note exams and forgiving attendanc...…

…The Michigan Daily — michigandaily.com Sports Wednesday, October 6, 2021 — 9 Fliegner highlights Michigan performance in Wolverine Invitational Increased speed evident in Michigan’s first game For years, Eddie Elinburg was the go-to guy. “If you called me at three in the morning, I’d be there to change your tire,” Elinburg said. “People counted on me.” But since losing both of his legs in a hit-and-run vehicle accident in 2...…

…Coming out of high school, football fans knew Roman Wilson as a burner. Considering his 4.37 40-yard dash time, that reputation was warranted. But during Saturday’s 38-17 win over Wisconsin, the sophomore wide receiver stood out for other reasons. His team-leading six catches and 81 yards were a product of crisp route running and separation rather than pure speed. Both marks also set a new career-high, a testament to his connecti...…

…Climate change is ravaging the planet. Wildlife populations are diminishing rapidly around the world. The Earth is dying — and it’s all our fault. This mantra cycles through my head every day, guiding my actions as I move through my daily routine. “Can you turn off the lights?” “Did you make sure to shut off the TV before you left the room?” “You don’t need to keep the water running while you’re washing dishes; you only need it for...…

…C omical threads fill websites like Reddit and Quora with anonymous users who pose questions like these: “Why do many of the extreme feminists have short hair or buzz cuts? Is it a symbol of not conforming to long hair, or do they just like short hair? No hate or spite started this. It’s just my curiosity.” The fixation on women and short hair is by no means unique to the modern-day. In 1915, the famous ballroom dancer Irene Castle...…
