Nationally, 66% of faculty say “colleges and universities should not take positions on political and social issues,” says Silence in the Classroom, the 2024 FIRE Faculty Survey Report. At Duke, the percentage is 71%, at Carolina 65%, and at Wake 64%. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content. Please enable it in your browser settings. Success!

The honors Thursday for the businessman-turned-politician are a measure of Trump’s remarkable comeback from an ostracized former president who refused to accept his election loss four years ago to a president-elect who won the White House decisively in November. At the stock exchange, Trump was accompanied by his wife, Melania Trump, daughters Ivanka and Tiffany and Vice President-elect JD Vance. Trump grinned as people chanted “USA” before he opened the trading day and raised his fist. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content.

Do people these days even know what nightlife is anymore? That was the only question I could ask myself after paying two distinct visits to Andy’s, rapper and record producer Anderson .Paak’s new jazz and R&B club in West Hollywood. The celebrity-owned restaurant, bar and performance space opened in late September, taking over the ground floor of the former Doheny Room. Replacing the short-lived Sa’Moto, the project is a collaboration between .Paak and Houston Hospitality, the group most recently behind Vegas-style bar, restaurant and nightclub concept Level 8 in Downtown L.A. A self-described “restaurant lounge,” Andy’s promises a “one-of-a-kind” experience that combines the “nostalgic vibes of the 1970s” with “modern energy.” The venue’s website also says to expect live music and food. If you’re thinking about checking it out, you won’t be alone. On the recent Friday night I visited, the line for Andy’s at 11pm nearly snaked past Dan Tana’s, the famous red-sauce joint next door. I saw several other well-dressed groups of people flocking to the area on foot, most likely on their way to Andy’s; aside from the Troubadour there are no other bars and nightclubs in the immediate area. T he hype around celebrity-owned businesses is real. I went into Andy’s both nights without much in the way of expectations beyond there being live music in the house and the promise by the venue’s publicist, after my first so-so visit, that the venue livened up significantly once the house band came on after 10pm. What I experienced inside was indeed “one-of-a-kind,” but didn’t necessarily live up to that lengthy line. Here’s five things to expect about a night out at Andy’s: 1. Before 10pm, Andy’s operates primarily as a sit-down restaurant and bar. The confusion is palpable for anyone who happens to be in the venue right before 10 o’clock, when employees start removing tables from in front of the stage. On my first visit, I arrived around 9pm and ordered from the food menu, which stops being served at 9:30pm. The house band wasn’t on stage yet, but there was a DJ spinning vinyl. In this half hour period, g uests on earlier dinner reservations are sometimes shooed out of their seats to open up the area in front of the stage and free up tables for bottle service. So w hile Andy’s does offer live music and food, it doesn’t seem to offer both at the same time. 2. The small menu of signature bites isn’t compelling enough on its own to merit a standalone dinner visit. On my first visit, I tried two cocktails and a pastrami bao, the latter a creation of Seoul Sausage’s Chris Oh, who consulted on the opening menu. The drinks were sugary and unbalanced, while I considered the sad-looking bao offensive to both traditional Fujianese and Taiwanese gua bao as well as Langer’s #19, for which the menu item is named. On my second visit, I only ordered drinks, but I also watched the party of two next to me send every single dish they’d ordered before dinner service ended back to the kitchen. 3. Don’t expect a fully stocked bar or amazing cocktails either. Rather than spring for another sugary house drink, I first attempted to order a Last Word, only to be told the bar could not make the classic cocktail. I then tried to order a Vesper, which the bar also could not make. That also failed, so I settled on a dirty vodka martini, which was acceptable. 4. After 10pm, the ambience is best described as an unhappy medium between a lounge and a nightclub. Across both visits, there was indeed a house band playing a mix of R&B, reggae and swing at such a deafening level it was hard to carry on a conversation with the person next to me. Unless you’re buying bottle service, most of the venue becomes standing room only after 10pm, but none of the songs played were conducive to full-blown dancing. Most people in front of the stage just bobbed their heads along to the music. If that’s your vibe (it certainly isn't mine), maybe you’ll enjoy Andy’s more than I did. 5. There’s a whimsical photo booth on the back patio. While the patio out back remained closed until at least 11pm, when I left the venue, there was one bright spot about Andy’s: a digital photo booth housed inside the shell of a fully decked out old-school Volkswagen Beetle. Hardly anyone inside seemed to be aware of it, since staff members kept shooing people away from the patio, so I'm mentioning it here. If you're looking for a true supper club experience, I'd recommend heading to Hollywood for the Catalina Jazz Club , where guests have actual tables to sit at (but are also expected to buy dinner or drinks). There’s also the Baked Potato in Studio City or, for a more upscale experience, Herb Alpert's Vibrato Grill Jazz in Beverly Crest. For those who want a glitzy night out in West Hollywood that might actually be worth waiting in a lengthy line, you can always head to Sunset at EDITION (open on Fridays and Saturdays) or Hyde Sunset , a restaurant that turns into a club after 11pm.

2025 Travel & Tourism Seminar to be held in Plymouth this February

TORONTO - CBC is restoring its live New Year’s Eve celebration. A year after the national broadcaster cancelled the 2024 countdown due to “financial pressures,” it says the special event is back on the TV schedule to mark the dawn of 2025. Festivities begin Dec. 31 with the one-hour “22 Minutes New Year’s Eve Pregame Special,” a satirical reflection on the events of 2024 with the cast of the political comedy series “This Hour Has 22 Minutes.” It will be followed by “Canada Live! Countdown 2025,” a special hosted by news anchor Adrienne Arsenault and singer Jann Arden broadcasting live from Toronto’s Harbourfront Centre, and anchor Ian Hanomansing and comedian Ali Hassan at Vancouver’s VanDusen Botanical Garden. A representative for the CBC says the coast-to-coast show will feature reporters at more than a dozen community events across the country while a countdown to the new year will take place in each of the six time zones. Throughout the seven-and-a-half-hour program, “many Canadian celebrity guests” will appear in live and pre-taped messages. “Canada Live! Countdown 2025” begins at 8 p.m. ET on CBC News Network and CBC Gem with CBC-TV and CBC Radio picking up the feed at 9 p.m. in local markets. Last year, the CBC replaced its live New Year’s Eve programming with a taped Just For Laughs special hosted by comedian Mae Martin. That left Canadians without a homegrown countdown on any of the major networks, which sparked blowback on social media from some viewers. The CBC began its annual specials in 2017 to mark Canada’s sesquicentennial year. Some of the more recent broadcasts were hosted by comedian Rick Mercer and featured fireworks and musical performances in key cities. But when CBC paused those plans last year, it said the show had become “increasingly expensive to produce.” The decision to sideline the program was made shortly after members of Parliament summoned outgoing CBC president Catherine Tait to testify about job cuts and her refusal to rule out bonuses for CBC executives.
