performing will be part of the equation.
The students who signed up to participate in Princeton University Department of Music’s fall Opera Performance course certainly expected to perform a staged version of “La Calisto,” Francesco Cavalli’s 17th-century opera, in Richardson Auditorium at the end of the term.

Dear Readers,
It is no secret that our world is burning. Untold numbers of human beings are at risk, alongside the countless known and unknown animal and plant species subject to endangerment or extinction. Furthermore, our most vulnerable communities victims of colonialist imperialism or racial apartheid or economic exploitation remain those most threatened by worsening climate change, despite their negligible contributions to the crisis relative to the state-sponsored extractivism of the world’s fossil fuel corporations. As long as neoliberal myopia prolongs our societal carbon addiction in the name of profit, our civilization will march closer and closer to devastation or perhaps even annihilation. None of this in dispute.

The San Luis Obispo Police Department is asking the community to come forward with any information about suspicious activity around the time anti-Semitic graffiti was sprawled outside a Jewish-affiliated Cal Poly fraternity.
Members of the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity reported finding the swastikas and other graffiti at their house in the 200 block of California Blvd. on the morning of Saturday, Feb. 6.
Police say the vandalism has been determined to be a hate crime, and SLOPD investigators are working with Cal Poly Police and the FBI to develop leads.
