Athens

Visiting the city of Athens was a dream come true for my younger self. From trying cultural foods to sightseeing, here’s how to spend a great day in Athens. 

While references to famed engineer Butler Lampson or physicist Barry Barish may be hard to fit into a conversation, here are a few of the best UC Berkeley alumni in the entertainment world to bring out the next time you see your high school friends.

Every year, when I leave Berkeley to go watch my mom complete another marathon, I'm always asked the same questions: How could anyone ever do that?

Between the grammatical corrections and point deductions, Madame Lacascade always managed to squeeze in an “excellent sentence” or a coveted “très bien.” Through her own indisputable passion, she instilled in me not only a love of French but one of language itself.

Seliskar’s outstanding performance in Athens was just one of many this season, as he has been arguably the Bears’ most valuable swimmer in 2018.

Perched at the very top of the statue of Athena, overlooking the city of Athens, it is difficult not to be amazed by the painstakingly reconstructed environment that the action-adventure, open-world role-playing game, or RPG, “Assassin’s Creed Odyssey” effortlessly showcases.

The story leading up to this production of “Antigone” may be a quirky segment of history, but it’s the legacy of a much grander (and much older) origin.

Street art has a paramount role in the history and culture of Berkeley. Once disregarded as mere vandalism, street art is now a prestigious field of art.

I quickly learned that while unknown cities can be hard to navigate, they aren’t rife with unknown horrors. And once I gave in to the fact that I would be alone while traversing the continent, I enjoyed them all the more.

Perhaps life is stronger than war And perhaps life will one day be easier on those resilient souls.
