Presenting Requiem Zine in Transit!
For many of us, we are in the most transitional years
of our lives. This semester's theme, In Transit, refers to
our relationship with time and space. We are
constantly moving through those vast dimensions,
literally when we're walking to class, taking a bus,
hopping on the metro, riding a bike, skateboard,
scooter, etc. Or more abstractly, when we transition
from fall semester to winter break to spring
semester to summer, and on and on. College
makes the motion of life through time and space
especially loud. We are in a phase of our life with a
specific stop that we must get off at, turning our life
here into a moment in time. We come from
everywhere, and we'll leave for everywhere else. But
for these four years or so, our paths collide. And here
it really is about the journey. The journey from
Elkton Hall to a lovely little house off campus with
two cats. The journey across the mall in between
classes when thousands of us come together to
march boldly forward together through time and
space. The journey from the first day of classes to
the final final. The journey of watching the seasons
melt into each other on our campus.... a reminder
that the Earth is moving, and so are we.
With this edition of Requiem, we want to reflect on
this movement and dig deeper — question where
we're going, or even where we've come from. As
well as honor this motion and be a testament of our
gratitude for this extraordinary opportunity to grow
and learn. To explore space and move through time.
Cheers,
Alexa, Diya, and Sofya
