Review: Magdalena Bay’s ‘Imaginal Disk’ takes the band on magical trip back to Boston

3 weeks ago | huntnewsnu.com | Elizabeth Scholl

Magdalena Bay, an alternative pop group made up of Mica Tenenbaum and Matthew Lewin, took over the Citizens House of Blues Boston April 29 for its “Imaginal Disk” tour. The venue was a capacity upgrade from the group’s last concert in Boston at the Royale in 2024, and the larger House of Blues was sold out due to the concert’s popularity. The tour, named after an album of the same name, was extended in 2024. The opener, Sam Austins, warmed up the crowd with his R&B beats and electronic sounds.

During the May 7 graduation ceremony for the College of Arts, Media and Design, or CAMD, Northeastern showed more reverence for artificial intelligence than for its student body. At least, that was how it felt after hearing my name read out in a booming, stilted AI voice rather than by a human after four years of working diligently in the School of Journalism.
Review: Bright Eyes punctuates House of Blues performance with political diatribes

1 month ago | huntnewsnu.com | Jake Guldin

President Donald Trump has spent much of his second term fanning the flames of bigotry. He’s signed executive orders and issued statements meant to demonize already marginalized people, including immigrants and transgender Americans. And Conor Oberst, for one, has had enough. The Bright Eyes frontman mounted an emphatic rebuke of the 47th president and his lackeys midway through the band’s April 18 performance at Citizens House of Blues Boston.

Op-ed: In times of crisis, FAQs are not enough

1 month ago | huntnewsnu.com | Rachel Umansky-Castro

Over the past year, Northeastern has experienced two defining moments. The first was the April 2024 student encampment calling on Northeastern to divest from American defense contractors that supply weapons to Israel. The second is the Trump administration placing pressure on higher education and threatening universities’ academic independence. These moments were tests for our university administrators. Yet, in both cases, they failed.
Clarifying our anonymity policies in an unprecedented time

Since President Donald Trump took office in January, The Huntington News has seen an increased number of sources ask for anonymity, refuse to speak to reporters out of fear and even request to unpublish pieces that expressed positions critical of the United States government. Given that The Huntington News is a campus newspaper at a university with the second-highest population of international students in the nation, many of our sources, writers and editors hail from other countries.
