Against dangerous LSU, Texas football has everything to prove

After weeks of inconsistency, Texas is riding a three-game winning streak and has slowly but surely pieced together impressive resume wins, putting itself back into College Football Playoff contention. LSU, meanwhile, has largely had an up-and-down season, trying to rally after a bad home loss against Alabama, which has put them on the CFP outs at the moment. Against Missouri, the Longhorns showed what Texas can be, sustaining an offensive rhythm through all four quarters. Despite this, questions still surround the Longhorns, as they are considered the underdogs against the Tigers. Advertisement Based on the latest CFP rankings, Texas hasn’t secured a convincing, deafening win against a conference opponent that leaves the committee with no doubts. UCLA jumped Texas by two spots, showing that its two losses have not been forgotten. While the Longhorns have some breathing room, their place in the playoff picture is not secure.

SPORTS BUZZ: Newark Charter's Timmie Claessens taking it one mile at a time

Timmie Claessens’ long-distance running season last year ended on a high note when he won the 3200 race with an 18-second personal best time of 9:19.73 at the Meet of Champions.“It gave me a little boost and gave me confidence to what I could do and motivated me to work even harder in the summer,” said Claessens, a student at Newark Charter School. “And coming off a good summer of training always feels good.”Claessens’ senior cross-country season got off to a great start when he won the team’s first 5k meet at the White Clay Creek Classic on Sept. 11. He followed that up a week later with a second-place finish at the Spartan Moonlight Classic. In October, Claessens’ performances started to dip. He placed third at the Manhattan Cross-Country Invitational and fifth at the Joe O’Neill Invitational.“At that point. I wasn’t feeling too great,” Claessens reflected.

Students From Swing States Share Post-Election Reactions

Reading time: about 9 minutes After Democrats regained control of both Congressional houses in the 2026 midterm elections, Cornell students hailing from states where Democrats flipped Senate seats expressed shock, pride and excitement about the implications for their home states. In what election analysts have referred to as a “blue wave,” Democrats flipped eight Republican-held Senate seats — in Kansas, Texas, Ohio, North Carolina, Iowa, South Carolina, Maine and Mississippi. While the Alaska Senate race has not yet been called, The New York Times predicts Mary Peltola (D) will flip the seat. Maine In Maine, former State Senator and logger Troy Jackson (D) defeated incumbent Sen. Susan Collins (R). Collins has served in the Senate since 1996 and was the only Republican senator to represent a state Kamala Harris won in the 2024 Presidential contest. Anna Siegel ’28, who grew up in Yarmouth, Maine reflected on Collins’ defeat after 30 years in the Senate.

How the Midterms Represent a New Age for American Beliefs

c/o Aïda Amer / Axios November 13, 2026 • By Genevieve Eisner Last Tuesday, after the Democrats delivered a sweeping victory in the midterm elections, many Americans felt a sense of relief and hope for the future. Even a few months ago, this level of optimism seemed so out-of-reach. Countless people were losing faith in the notion that Americans still valued the core principle our country was built upon: democracy. Since 2016, Donald Trump has cast a long and destructive shadow on American democracy. Now with the midterms, the Democrats have fought back and secured a much-needed victory. But I’m not here to argue about why Democrats, including myself, are experiencing this cathartic feeling. Rather, I believe that the recent midterm elections shouldn’t just be a source for hope for Democrats, but for all Americans, no matter their political affiliation. The results of the midterms show that the general public still respects the pillars of liberal democracy.

International players bring piece of home to Texas women’s golf

For seven of the nine players on the Texas women’s golf roster, home is a long flight away. For them, “home” might mean a quiet town in the English countryside or a bustling city in southern Taiwan. But in Austin, their different versions of home unite through familiar meals, homesickness and the occasional conversation about a grocery store thousands of miles away. Junior Isla McDonald-O’Brien grew up in Shrewsbury, England, a town about 40 miles west of Birmingham that looks straight out of “Downton Abbey.” Moving from Shrewsbury to the U.S. came with plenty of adjustments, and one thing Americans quickly noticed was her accent. Advertisement “I still get (comments about) it every day,” McDonald-O’Brien said. “Like if I go to the supermarket, everyone’s like, ‘Oh my gosh, I love your accent.’” After three years in the U.S., she has picked up some American expressions as well. When she returns to England, those new words stand out just like her accent does in Texas.

Diwali lights up McKenna Auditorium

Last Sunday, students danced their hearts out in elaborate traditional outfits of various bright colors for Diwali, one of the few festivals where the Desi community at the 5Cs comes together to bring a familiar cultural tradition to life in Claremont. On the evening of Nov. 8, students from across the 5Cs celebrated Diwali at McKenna Auditorium. The event was hosted by the Claremont Hindu Society in partnership with the South Asian mentorship program and the 5C Bollywood dance club Claremont Tamasha. It was also co-sponsored by The Claremont Colleges Services’ Religious and Spiritual Life office, which brought interfaith chaplains from the McAlister Center as well as a new partner from the Bay Area, the Hindu Spiritual Care Institute. For many students far from their families, the celebration offered a piece of home at the 5Cs. Diwali, or the Festival of Lights, celebrates the spiritual victory of light over darkness, though the specific victory being referenced varies by region.

Official Pulse Club captures emotions through fragrance

As the semester winds down, many students begin to realize how fast time goes by. Outings with friends and late-night study sessions eventually turn into memories. Surrounded by a signature fragrance and paper cranes, students explored this idea of impermanence in the University Teaching Center basement on Wednesday night at the Official Pulse Club’s scent exhibition. Tracy Min, club president and economics senior, said she became interested in perfumes as a young child and felt surprised UT didn’t offer any clubs focused on perfumes. “I feel like people don’t really focus on scent … compared to other (visuals) or hearing because people like music, they like art, they like to watch a movie. … I feel like people (focus less) on the smelly part,” Min said. “I thought it’s gonna be really cool (for) people who don’t even care about perfume to join our club and see.” Advertisement The club holds general meetings once a month and invites students to experiment with fragrances.
