Today's riddle: What has a tail, but no body? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. UMass, Ohio Close Out Non-Conference Play With Victories (getsomemaction.com) — UMass women's soccer shut out Northeastern 3–0 at Parsons Field in Brookline, with Caroline Dickson scoring twice and Monica Curry adding a late goal. Local fans saw UMass finish non-conference play 6–1–0, backed by a seven-save clean sheet from goalkeeper Leah Nisenfeld as the Minutewomen controlled chances despite Northeastern's late push.
2. HCHC celebrates Great Vespers of the Holy Cross, Academic Convocation (orthodoxobserver.org) — Hellenic College Holy Cross in Brookline marked the Feast of the Holy Cross with Great Vespers, traditional cross and exorasson ceremonies, and its 2026 Academic Convocation on campus. Archbishop Elpidophoros and other hierarchs joined students, faculty, and alumni as they welcomed the school's largest incoming class and highlighted the Cross as the guiding pattern for HCHC's educational mission.
3. How to Recognize Eosinophilic Granuloma in Cats Before It Gets Worse (morningagclips.com) — Brookline cat owners get a detailed, practical guide to spotting early signs of eosinophilic granuloma, a skin condition that often stems from allergies and can worsen if ignored. The article explains what lesions look like, when to call the vet, and why underlying triggers like fleas or food sensitivities must be addressed to prevent recurring problems.
4. Class Action (brownpoliticalreview.org) — Brookline families are singled out in a broader investigation of how school districts nationwide rely on confidential special-education settlements instead of investing in in-district services. The piece argues that Brookline's dependence on these deals reflects financial mismanagement and weak infrastructure, and calls for more funding, transparency, and legal support so students with disabilities receive appropriate services without secrecy or inequity.
