					<description><![CDATA[<p>Unlike our last issue, it is a warm and sunny post-Floralia morning — our final layout Sunday of the year. It is a bittersweet day for our nine seniors, including yours truly, but we are ready to pass the torch to our worthy successors. We honor our graduates with a special crossword and baby photo &#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>It’s a dark and stormy Sunday in the TCV office. The seniors are celebrating 30 days until graduation under the shelter of a tent on Tempel, sipping mimosas and eating breakfast burritos. The College Voice team is hard at work in our toasty office, fighting off senioritis and stress. Springtime at Conn is the start &#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Following President Katherine Bergeron’s announcement that she will resign at the end of the Spring 2023 semester, the quotidian life of the College has returned in all of its springtime glory.

In this special edition, you will find that the entire breadth of these sections covers our current campus protests.

					<description><![CDATA[<p>While the start of the Fall semester feels very much like the dog days of summer, the blurred lines of January into February resemble deep winter.

					<description><![CDATA[<p>It’s that moment of the semester when final exams are the subject of our small talks, camaraderie grows among students speed-walking to catch deadlines at similarly slow paces, and professors conclude our classes with the ironic sameness of, “Yeah. It’s just been a weird semester this year.”&#160; On a lazy afternoon last Friday, when Sam &#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Another successful Fall Weekend came and went! Despite the dreary weather, campus came to&#160;life with trees just starting to change color and a chill in the air. As I witnessed heartwarming&#160;family gatherings and pet the fluffiest dogs all across campus, I felt transported to the pre-COVID&#160;days three years ago when I was a wide-eyed first-year. &#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>The start of the 2022/23 academic year, finally, has been met with a breath of fresh air and a much needed sense of normalcy. Around this time last year, Conn fell into its largest outbreak of COVID-19 on campus, as despite the crisp New England fall weather, things were all doom and gloom. This year feels &#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Open Letter to President Bergeron: An editorial in the November 10th issue of the College Voice reported that your salary increased by $211,424 in 2019, from $418,304 to $629,728. We have since learned that this was not a salary increase but a contractual payment due to you when you opted out of a one-year sabbatical. &#8230;</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Dear President Bergeron, I write to address my deep concern for the voyeurism incidents this past academic year. The nature of these incidents is inexcusable, especially within this community. The standards and expectations of this college demand more from its highest level of leadership. Prominent figures at this school have demonstrated their roles as leaders &#8230;</p>
