There's no better way to celebrate Monday (Moon's Day) than a solar eclipse in the Smith College Botanic Garden.

Watch astronomy professor Suzan Edwards explain some of the science behind today's eclipse. Here in Northampton, the sun will be 65% covered by the moon.

In a letter to the Smith community, President McCartney condemned the actions of white supremacists in Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend. "We, the Smith community, reaffirm our unequivocal commitments to diversity, inclusion, equity, and the dignity and worth of all people. Free speech is at the core of our educational enterprise, and we will never tolerate hate speech in any of its forms."

What's new in downtown Northampton? Parklets! In partnership with Smith, Hungry Ghost Bread turned its green space into a stone amphitheater and medicinal garden for public gathering. And a new nearby coffee shop, Iconica Social Club, has also collaborated with the community to create a public "parklet." The Daily Hampshire Gazette chronicles even more projects that have created oases around the downtown area: http://www.gazettenet.com/Editorial-Two-projects-continue-the-greening-of-downtown-Northampton-10672016
