LETTER from the EDITOR


Dear Readers,

Hello, and welcome to Issue 5!

It feels crazy to say that we’re already over a month into
the semester. By the time this issue comes out, campus
will have had two visits from James Patterson, experienced another successful Family Weekend and seen countless club fundraisers and events. Needless to say, it’s been a busy five weeks, but it’s made them fly by.

On the note of club fundraisers, The Quadrangle’s GoFundMe for the academic year is now live. Funds raised on this page will go towards helping us print our special issues for both
the fall and spring, and anything we raise over our goal will go towards paying for additional issues to be printed. To those of you who have already donated and reached out, thank you so much. It means the world to us to see your support of student journalism and the work we do each week! If you have any questions regarding the GoFundMe, our fundraising, or anything else, always feel free to reach out to us at thequad@ manhattan.edu.

As usual, we’re covering everything from engineering to
art in this issue. In news, we bring you the new associate provost of faculty affairs, one of MU’s most prominent alumni being affiliated into the Brothers of the Christian Schools, and a Manhattan Caucus covering the first week of the UN’s General Assembly in NYC. In features, we cover a seminar hosted by the Department of Mathematics and Physics as well as MU’s chapter of SWE as they gear up for an academic year full of new events. In A&E, we cover a new icon of St. John Baptiste de La Salle hung in Campus Ministry and WRCM’s first bash of the academic year. Lastly, in sports,
we bring you coverage on MU’s recently announced club basketball team and a Games of the Week to wrap it all up. We hope you’ll give it all a read!

Until next time,
