  1. As if there aren't several democrats also loving this moment (looking at you, Fetterman)
  2. they can't stop bombing schools it seems
  3. So it's just going to be a trend that every Winter Olympics is followed by a major conflict?
  4. None of the people around me have done that 🥹 which is why I'm turning to you guys I won't lie I did look briefly into the University of Wolverhampton but they don't have any programs similar to the ones I'm interested in hahaha Thank you for this! I don't speak French unfortunately ☹️ but Strasbourg does have a program I would be very interested in.
  5. Im getting my degree in Anthropology, so I'm looking at programs related to heritage and culture. I also have some experience handling and analyzing human remains as part of my program, so I could probably do a forensic osteology program as well... It's silly, I'm non-white so I'm a bit cautious of my options, especially since I've never been to the UK/Europe. But more importantly - I need the food and cuisine situation to be good 😭 I moved to a majority-white town once and it made me sad because the food options were not great. I'm open to anything, but I haven't done much research on universities outside of the UK
  6. The Canadian Paralympic Committee will not send athletes to the Opening Ceremony, citing the fact that Verona is 2 hours away from competition sites and they want to keep their athletes focused on their preparations (statement also includes their response to the Russia/Belarus situation, but they state their decision is not because of that)
  7. So like, did we ever figure out why Giovanni Malago spontaneously started speaking Spanish in his opening ceremony speech? https://www.olympics.com/en/milano-cortina-2026/videos/opening-ceremony-ceremonies-milano-cortina-2026 2:43:00
  8. Hi friends, I'm about to finish my undergraduate degree in a few months and I'm looking at (post)graduate programs overseas. I don't plan on applying for 2026-27, but I will for 2027-28 which gives me an extra year to decide where I want to go. So far Kent and Birmingham have my attention since they both have programs I'm interested in, however I'm a bit nervous as it would be a huge leap (distance wise and tbh, culturally too) for me. For those in the UK, or in Europe in general, would you recommend going over there as a student? Anything I should consider? Thank you
  9. Hey, thank you for sharing your Athens 2004 story! It was a great read, especially as someone who plans on applying for LA28 While I wait for the Games-time volunteering application to open later this year, I've signed up for their pre-Games volunteering program so hopefully I can get involved beforehand. My university also appears to be planning an on-campus volunteer hub (not sure exactly what it'll entail) so I'll also be checking that when it comes into existence Utah 2034 will also be another great chance, so we'll see how things are going by then...
  10. They'd have to change it to an odd-number year, as a Winter YOGs in the southern hemisphere would conflict with the adult Olympic Games
  11. https://la28.org/en/newsroom/more-than-5-million-fans-around-the-world-registered-for-la28-ticket-draw.html LA28 has surpassed 5 million registrations for the ticketing draw, with an average of 100,000 new registrations per day These registrations come from all 50 states and 194 nations

  13. I was under the impression that the Winter IFs strongly objected to the presence of summer sports at the Winter Olympics? I could have sworn Coventry or another IOC figure had mentioned that in a previous press conference...
