In this week’s front, Patrick Doolittle, SY ’17, profiles Scott Strobel, a man who’s molding both the physical and the intangible here at Yale. He’s an MB&B professor and runs West Campus. In his spare time, he crafts fallen historic trees grown on Yale’s campus into bowls and pens. You should buy a Yale Bowl for your mom.
When you’ve had your fill, head over to Features, where Calvin Harrison, CC ’17, explains a crazy fluke in the Bridgeport mayoral election. Take a peek at Opinion, where Lisa Ann Tang, SM ’17, meditates on CS50 and the role of technology in the classroom. And in Voices, Frances Lindemann, DC ’19, brings on all the feels with an essay about young love.
Amid the madness this time of year, take a step back and a deep breath. Read us over a meal or study break and think about what you can shape.
Hang in there,
Rachel Strodel
