Librarians have been actively collaborating and talking about it almost every day, whether it's creating tutorials and digital learning objectives or thinking about the conversations to have with instructors.

They defeated ninth-ranked Iowa 96-45. They won the title game in arguably the country's deepest conference by 51 points.

My older brother has worked with pigs his entire adult life, managing about 70,000 of them across five counties, Faaborg says. But we got to a point where he went from laughing at me to saying: well, I guess maybe I'll quit my job and help you out. Now he's the most dedicated, says Katherine Jernigan, director of the Transfarmation Project at Mercy for Animals, a non-profit that helped the Faaborgs make the switch and set up their new business, 1100 Farm.

Cornell psychology researchers Gordon Pennycook and have won the 2026 Newcomb Cleveland Prize from the American Association for the Advancement of Science for their 2024 article about using AI to combat conspiracy theories.

Cornell is thrilled to welcome all of these incredible student-athletes to Ithaca. The NCAA basketball tournaments are cultural institutions and lots of fun. I'm excited and proud, both as a fan and as the university's president, to host our terrific Ivy athletes, coaches and fans.

That was the most profound moment for me. Students were walking by, stopping and going, 'What's this?' and I would watch them texting their friends to come down from the upper floors to see the performance. That was an experience I don't think these students would have had otherwise because they were in the library.

The bus carrying the school's baseball team crashed and overturned in a ditch on Iowa Highway 4 near Twin Lakes, about 110 miles northwest of Des Moines, on Wednesday morning. Iowa State Patrol Lt. Aaron Schmidt said Johnson was pronounced dead at the scene.

Iowa State was the last No. 1 seed in the original preview, along with the Duke Blue Devils, Michigan Wolverines and Arizona Wildcats. Those three are still on the one-line, but have since been joined by the UConn Huskies.

If passed and signed into law, the bill would replace the student regent with a ninth one appointed by the governor. In addition, seven new nonvoting member seats would be established: three for students, two for state senators and two for state representatives. The proposed legislation also details several new policies and programs the board would be required to establish and would give members of the state's General Assembly the ability to override board and university expenditures through a joint resolution.

Each summer, the University of California, Berkeley's College of Environmental Design (CED) becomes an intensive laboratory for architectural, landscape, and urban exploration. Through two complementary programs-Design + Innovation for Sustainable Cities (DISC) and the Summer Institutes-Berkeley offers an immersive curriculum grounded in disciplinary rigor, intentional exchange, and a shared institutional culture. Together, these programs reflect CED's long-standing multidisciplinary structure, with architecture, landscape architecture, city planning, and urban design thriving and collaborating under one roof.

The mock funeral was a protest against the university administration's plan to overhaul the college by consolidating its departments into four thematic schools including one devoted to human narratives and creative expressions, encompassing what was previously taught in the English, classics, languages and Latino Studies departments, among others. Fears over the future of the humanities aren't limited to New Jersey's second-largest public university.
