Is our empathy becoming more selective

Hiba Khan, SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE May 5, 2026

Celebrities do not care about your best interests

In the midst of what could be looked at as the most dishonest, polarizing and combative administration in United States history, more and more people feel powerless in the face of the total lack of accountability...

It’s on you, Hofstra

Ja’Loni Owens May 8, 2018

“President Rabinowitz responded to my question with, “You do matter, and every single student on this campus matters to me...I understand that it helps you in some way to say that we don’t think you’re as important as others...but you are...” This comment filled me with an anger I was unable to process to an extent that permitted me to write about it until this week.

Senior send-off: Four years too fast

Jesse Saunders May 8, 2018

“It’s really easy to feel like you haven’t done enough. Four years isn’t a lot of time, even if it can feel like it stretches on forever. Saying goodbye to college is hard, and as cheesy as it sounds, saying goodbye to The Chronicle is harder.

Jordan Hopkins May 8, 2018

“Over the last few weeks, discussion of peace talks between North and South Korea have intensified, and it looks like a peace treaty ending the 72-year war will materialize in the near future.

Bill Cosby’s conviction represents progress

Delilah Gray May 8, 2018

“It’s time to rejoice for sexual assault victims everywhere, because the legal system is finally starting to see sexual assault and rape as actual crimes to reprimand. Actor Bill Cosby is now recognized as the rapist and criminal he is.”

Think Again: Don’t be productive 24/7

Angelica Beneke May 8, 2018

“As the semester is winding down, I’ve noticed three consistent moods among people graduating on May 20: full acceptance that they’re graduating, half-acceptance and half-denial that they’re graduating or the joking thought that graduating on May 20 is the plan.”

Public not-so-Safety

James Factora, ASSISTANT EDITORIAL EDITOR May 1, 2018

“Hofstra has a long, long way to go before this campus can be considered a truly safe space, not just for survivors, but for all of us.”
