CLIMATE COUNTS By Katherine Mangan  Black students at Ohio State have organized Black movie nights, a Black Caucus, and a Black mental-health coalition, efforts they say are key to feeling connected. But lawmakers are pushing back. ADVERTISEMENT  CAMPUS SAFETY By Kate Hidalgo Bellows and Dan Bauman  Destroyed safety records, a fear-driven “culture of silence,” and a failure to account for all of the university’s properties were among the biggest bombshells.

LATITUDES By Karin Fischer  Congressional efforts to cancel funding for academic exchanges sputter, and the Supreme Court won’t hear a case on a foreign-student work program.
