…I n September of this semester, I made one of, if not the most, significant purchases of my 21 years to date: a houseplant. But this purchase wasn’t just your standard, run-of- the-mill desktop succulent (though don’t get me wrong, I have one of those too). This was a glorious fern, with slender green branches overflowing from her pot and smelling of earth and living things; carefully selected from her almost-but-not-quite as equally fo...…
…T he University of Michigan had a total enrollment of 48,090 students in fall 2019, but apart from people flooding Ingalls Mall during Festifall or joining the crowd walking toward the Big House on game day, there has seldom been a moment I’ve felt the weight of how huge the University actually is. People are constantly bustling through the Diag, earbuds in, laughing with friends or climbing up the steps to Hatcher. However, I’ve never...…
…I like pristine things. Here’s my ironclad logic: If it’s new, it’s going to be more durable. The pristine condition seems like a guaran- tee of quality.
