Dear Readers,
Hello, happy Triangle Tuesday and welcome to issue 10!
By now, you may have noticed a very special print issue sitting on stands around campus. For the first time since 2023, The Triangle has returned in print! For those who may not know, The Triangle is The Quad’s annual satirical April Fool’s Day edition. It brings our staff great pleasure to put this together each spring, and it is personally one of my favorite Quad traditions. My first trip to campus happened to be a spring Accepted Students Day, and the 2022 Triangle edition was my first exposure to our beloved paper I have grown to love so much. For those not on campus, The Triangle is posted online at our issuu account, which can be found here. I hope it brings a smile to your face and a few laughs to brighten your day!
Speaking of Triangle, I would be remiss to not give a major shoutout to our production team, who spent hours on end this weekend putting together both of these beautiful issues. As much as we love Triangle, it is not an easy issue to put together, requiring many graphics and memes to be built from scratch on Photoshop. They are truly the behind the scenes heroes each week, but especially on days when they’re handed double-duty down in the lab.
Speaking of being in print, I want to once again link our GoFundMe for you to access and share with loved ones. We began receiving donations last week, and I could not be more grateful for those of you who have been able to contribute! No matter the amount, big or small, your support of keeping student journalism alive means the world to our staff and me.
As for our regular issue, we have some great (actually real) news to bring to you. In news, we cover last week’s Senate meeting on campus which brought many updates about what the campus community can expect in the coming months. We also cover MU’s annual Innovation Challenge, where students pitched their business ideas for a chance to win a cash prize. Continuing on in features, we bring you a Voices on the Quad: Spring Break Edition as well as a story on the Center for Career Development’s search for new Peer Career Advisors. In A&E, we cover Players’ One Act performances from over the weekend and a Book Nook for Sunrise On The Reaping, the newest Hunger Games novel. Lastly, in sports, we bring you Manhattan University Women’s Lacrosse’s most recent win, and an overview of the Games of the Week you may have missed. Be sure to give it all a read!
Until next time,
