Letter from the Tufts Daily Magazine Editor

By Henry Chandonnet | April 24

I miss the era of big, bold tear-out posters in magazines. Remember when your copy of Tiger Beat came with a complimentary shot of Zac Efron or Justin Bieber, perfect for taping above your bed? Flipping through a recent print edition ofThe Cut, I found a double-sided tearout of Bad Bunny on a ranch, pouting for the camera. The poster left me feeling wistful. It went right up on a friend’s wall, looming over her television.

Letter from the Tufts Daily Magazine Editor

By Henry Chandonnet | December 5

Next to my bed, below my alarm clock and strewn necklaces, is what I call the “stack.” It’s a tower of magazines, always threatening to topple over. The titles range from New York to Vanity Fair, GQ to Fast Company, People to Esquire. Their spines are all cracked, the pages ripped and smudged from my ravenous reading.

By Henry Chandonnet | December 5

Did you know that Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have been separated since 2016? Or that Chris Rock had asked Jada out pre-Oscars slap, thinking she and Will were getting a divorce? These bombshells heard ‘round the internet became incessant, with dueling Twitter accounts Pop Crave and Pop Base racing to post quicker updates. The magazine web bloggers jumped, publishing standalone scandal write-ups and “top revelations” listicles. For one week, Jada and her marital ongoings were the biggest story in celebrity media.

Students stage walkout and sit-in for Palestine in the Campus Center

By Julia Carpi, Caroline Vandis and Henry Chandonnet | November 14

At least 250 students staged a walkout and 10-hour sit-in at the Mayer Campus Center in support of Palestine on Thursday. The protest was organized by the newly formed Coalition for Palestinian Liberation. “Hundreds of students walked out of their classes, many skipped their classes, their clubs [and] their obligations for the whole day to show Tufts that they stand against the ongoing genocide in Palestine and to demand that Tufts divest from Israeli apartheid,” a representative for Tufts Students for Justice in Palestine said. “It shows that there are more and more students joining the cause, we have momentum and we aren’t going to slow down anytime soon.”
