The New York Times newsletter In Short is getting a makeover as Extra Credit, a fun back-to-school edition with campus dispatches, reader questions, and a Missed Connections section. The debut issue features a three-course dorm meal challenge: a microwaved potato with butter and bacon, peanut butter noodles made on a communal stove, and a six-ingredient peanut butter and jelly cake, all from NYT Cooking recipes. Today's talking points cover new Canadian tariffs on U.S. goods, plummeting U.S. reading scores on global exams, New Hampshire Senate primaries, artworks stolen from the Renoir Museum in France, and a U.N.-backed Equal Earth projection map that the United States alone voted against.
