University senate bans student-faculty relationships
By Madeline Phaby | 3 days agoMiami University Senate passed a resolution forbidding nearly all romantic relationships between students and faculty during its Feb. 22 meeting.
Assistant News Editor Madeline Phaby is a junior from Chicago, Illinois, majoring in history and sociology. She joined TMS on a whim during her second semester at Miami, and she still can’t believe she’s snagged an editorial position. Madeline loves studying and writing about Miami and Oxford history and can often be heard trying to convince her editors that TMS needs more historical content. This year, she’s also serving as the Miami Student’s Associated Student Government beat writer. Madeline listens to music constantly, and she’ll bop to anything from Bach to the Beatles to Beyoncé. She’s also a huge baseball fan (go Sox!), and many of her fondest memories involve Sunday afternoons at the ballpark with her dad. After her time at Miami, Madeline hopes to go to grad school for U.S. history and eventually become a super dorky professor.
