Happy pre finals week to all! We are just 11 days away from the end of the semester, and even fewer remain for those lucky few. As the days until the end of the semester dwindle, I have, like many (most) of us, lost almost all sense of creativity. Instead of riddling you with the quintessential “finals survival

It’s not often that you see Mario and Luigi take the stage in front of a crowd of dancing students, but that the exact scene unfolded at Legends this Halloween as alternative rock band Generationals started their set.

Whether you’re a fan of stand-up, or more of an improv type of person, there was something for you at Legends last Thursday. The club was taken over by two of the funniest groups on campus, with performances by both the Student Standups and Humor Artists. The Standups featured the acts of six students whose

“David Bowie Is” in a word … Revolutionary? Multi-talented? Avant-garde? No one description can suffice, and the internationally-touring retrospective with the evocative title leaves the sentence to be finished in any number of combinations. The exhibition, which opened at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago last Tuesday, makes no attempt to establish just one
