Allegheny’s AI Task Force released its preliminary report to the college community via email on Sept. 25. The task force was created in June 2025 with the purpose of detailing the possibilities of artificial intelligence usage and its possible effects at the college.

The main question is how AI will be harnessed appropriately for the benefit of all students at Allegheny rather than outright banning AIs, which Yeung says is possible.

A crowd of nearly 500 people gathered in Diamond Park in Meadville on Saturday to attend the second No Kings Rally of the year.

“We must learn to live together as brothers and/or perish together as fools,” NAACP Political and Community Action Chair Arnold E. Johnson IV said to the crowd, echoing the words of Martin Luther King Jr. “Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Come on. Let’s get radical for the right thing.”

A crowd of nearly 500 people gathered in Diamond Park in Meadville on Saturday to attend the second No Kings Rally of the year. The first rally, held on June 14, was described by The Meadville Tribune as a protest against President Donald Trump and what attendees viewed as his authoritarian actions....

When I feel like I need to clear my mind, I always end up going for a walk around campus. I, for one, love Allegheny’s older, classic architecture. Allegheny’s much smaller campus size and older designs make us stand out compared to large state schools. When I am walking around campus, I always enjoy looking at all of the architecture, even though I’ve already been going to Allegheny for two years now. 90 percent of the time, I end up walking or chilling by the creaky old wooden bridge on the south side of campus.

Transgender people make up less than one percent of the American population, with even fewer of us taking part in sports, holding positions of power and working steady jobs, according to the UCLA Williams Institute. With a population so low, surely our existence won’t matter too much in the grand scheme of political rhetoric. Yet, we are the center of attention when “everything” goes wrong. Executive orders earlier this year repealing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts and restoring “merit-based opportunity” have cost transgender and cisgender people access to jobs and government positions. False stereotypes, like that transgender men are “angry and aggressive” because of their testosterone levels and that transgender women “harass women in bathrooms,” plague social media, news outlets and government reports, inducing statewide panic and creating an easy target to divert attention away from a suffering country riddled with political divide.

Last year, I asked hundreds of students, faculty and staff to participate in a simple word exercise — what three words come to mind when I say “Allegheny College?” Time and again, one word stood at the center of their responses: community.

As we move into Fall Break, I invite you to join me in renewing our long-standing commitment to education rooted in respect, inclusion and learning freely with the courage to learn from one another. When we stand united as a learning community, showing the enduring power of education, we strengthen not only Allegheny but the future of our democracy.

What does economic redevelopment smell like? One month after the frozen yogurt store Cup n’ Spoon’s soft opening in August at its second location just off Spring Street and Race Street in Cussewago Square, its interior is still characterized by the fresh, clean scent of cut lumber. Reclaimed timbers as wide as telephone poles run the length of its ground floor, supporting a pressed tin ceiling that glints in the sunlight that streams through five large wood-framed windows. Exposed brickwork makes up the store’s interior walls. Together, these elements subtly pay homage to the building’s previous life as a distillery in the late 1800s, even as the building’s activities now center around a very different kind of flavorful treat.

Students gathered on the Gator quad Saturday afternoon for the annual “Wingfest,” hosted by Gator Activities Programming. The event featured a football-themed celebration of flavor, community and competition.
One of the standout competitors this year was Patrick Sharp, ’26, who won decisively in the second round. “It’s been two years,” Sharp said. “I had to come out of retirement and show up, I had to win. Had to do it for Coach Mourer.”
