Entering its 11th year, the Goldman Sachs Gives Analyst Impact Fund expanded to include 1,063 analysts who competed for a $500,000 prize pool to fund technology-driven non-profits addressing global challenges. Four finalist organizations were selected for their innovative AI applications: EveryCure secured the $250,000 grand prize for repurposing drugs, while Thorn, BuildChange, and WattTime received funds to combat child sexual abuse material, construct disaster-resilient housing, and index AI data center emissions respectively. This event underscored the firm's strategy of deploying both capital and human expertise through a cross-divisional collaboration that engaged 38 partners as judges and mentees to refine solutions for critical societal issues.

André Aciman: The Meaning and Message of 'Call Me By Your Name'
Author and distinguished CUNY professor Andre Aciman discusses the autobiographical origins of *Call Me By Your Name*, explaining how his fragmented Egyptian-Italian-American identity and childhood obsessions shaped the novel's exploration of ambiguous desire and the "San Clemente syndrome." He details the adaptation process by director Luca Guadagnino, noting how the film condensed written dialogue into improvisational screen time while preserving the story's core tension between articulation and the unspoken. Aciman further reflects on the work's emotional resonance, arguing that the text captures the universal human tendency to mourn a fabricated fantasy of what "might have happened" rather than accepting the reality of the present.
