Why is the Met's John Galliano exhibition controversial?

The Met will honour Galliano with a solo exhibition and next spring's Met Gala, 15 years after he was fired from Dior for anti-Semitic comments at a Paris bar. ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said he understands why some Jews may question it, but applauds Galliano's efforts to repair the damage.

Which conferences now support the Senate college sports bill?

Both the Big Ten and the Southeast Conference agreed to support a Senate bill to regulate college sports. It had been at risk of dying until concessions were made on language about third-party name, image and likeness deals, known as NIL. It still needs 60 votes to end debate.
