HAULING OUR DEGREES TO THE UNEMPLOYMENT LINES
GRADUATING FROM COLLEGE NO LONGER HOLDS PROMISE OF EMPLOYMENT

The percent of unemployed
college graduates in the United
States under the age of 25 is 11.2
percent, the percent of unemployed graduate school graduates is even higher (New York
Times). Why are we flinging
ourselves into lava pits? Well,
it's not a leap; it's a fall down a
tunnel. What other options do we
have as we exit high school? We
are conditioned from our youth to
believe in the importance of going to college. But, now that I'm

but one question: Now what?
In his 2011 State oLthe Union
Address, President Obama remarked that nearly half of the
new jobs in the next 10 years will
require a college degree (Whitehouse.gov). And we've all been
told before that the best thing
to do in an economic recession
is to attend school so that when
the economy "bounces back"

FAREWELL ADVICE FROM THE EDITOR-IN-rfllEF
S A N D R A C HALMERS
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
As I take my last walks up
and down the cliffs of stairs that
compose most of this campus, I
think back 'on all the things that
as a freshman I wish I knew and
the most important lessons that
my education has armed me with.
So to benefit the student population I will be leaving behind as I
graduate this May, I offer some
honest truths about college life.
Professors want to hear
more
than
your
stomach
growling
in
class:
Professors want students to ask
questions in class, I learned in my
Communication 200 course, debate and persuasion , the essential
step in thinking critically is to ask
questions, and if there are no questions being asked in class then
critical thinking could quite possibly be absent. Professors aim
to fuel your understanding, your
thought process on the material
and if the content is too difficult
to follow, tuning out and thinking about a Mr. Taco breakfast
burrito will not help you engage
in the material, I know, its hard,
but reading the material prior to
class helps reinforce your true
understanding. Getting questions
answered as the class progresses
keeps you from getting stuck
at midterm, review with 25 topics you can't find on Wikipedia.
If you're going to buy the text. book, make sure to read it:
We all know the familiar heart-
break of paying $136 for a textbook that was never opened and
then got denied buy back. That
slap in the face happens all to often, so invest ig your investments,
make your textbooks your best
friends, after all we know they
have the right answers in them
to guarantee you a perfect grade.

'
What's even worse is that nobody cares; at least, not enough
do. Why aren't more students
angered by this? The economy is
something we have little control
over, but our voices are something we do. While there have
been significant efforts to raise
awareness and protest tuition
increases on this campus, the
amount of student turnout at these
events is negligible, and embarrassing. This issue affects all of
us students, yet nobody can seem
to envision anything beyond final exams. Wake up CSUSM.
As I leave this university, I've
been slapped in the face with a
bleak reality beyond the Utopia of
undergraduate education. Know
that doom's day is coming, and
know that as students, you can
change this, and should. Of all
environments to speak your mind
in, college is probably the most
accommodating you will experience. Speak up for your education, speak up for yourself. Take
advantage of your own voice,
stop expecting others to do it for
you, and know that if you don't,
your investment into a lie will

Cell phone in class, means l

I will never forget the time I sang
the chorus for the song "Tipsy" by
J-Kwon in front of my sociology
class after my phone rang. The
rules of the land were, "phone
rings, then you must sing." My
unfortunate taste in ringtone denied me the chance slip by humming a simple tune, but my impromptu performance branded me
to never allow phone interruptions
during any class again, or you
may never know what embarrassing consequences there maybe.

late:
My favorite class, at the early
hour of 10 a.m, became a phenomenon for my time keeping
abilities. Arriving right at 10 a.m
meant a lengthy search for a chair
or possibly sitting at the uneven
desk in the corner that squawked
with every movement of a pencil .
My professor seemed to understand this phenomenon and would
stop at mid sentence to cheerfully
invite me to class with a "Oh hi
there, great that you made it."
Her genuine invitation felt like

in-betweeners? What are we supposed to do for the next 9 years?
I 'd like to enjoy my 20s, not eat
ramen noodles until I'm over 30.
Not only do more than 11 percent of college students graduate unemployed, but they do so
with excessive debt. Our parents
and teachers indoctrinated us
to believe that getting a Bachelor's degree is an investment
in our future, so 53 percent of
full-time students take out loans
(National Center for Education
Statistics). But what happens
when that future holds no promise? We have invested into a lie.
Not only do unemployed-tobe students already graduate with
massive debt, but state governments are making it increasingly
more difficult for students to afford a public education. In 2011
alone, the cost of tuition for a
CSU undergraduate rose an additional 10 percent (calstate.
edu), making the amount of
debt students graduate with even
higher, while creating an inverse
relationship with the success in
finding a job after we graduate.

PATINO A RELATIONSHIP APVICE
Dear Coug, My boyfriend and I have
been spending a lot of our free time together and I feel like I have been losing touch with some of my old friends.
With summer coming up, I am going
to want to see them since we are all go. ing back home. I feel like my boyfriend
and I have all these plans for summer—
we hope to enjoy time together without the stress of school. I don't know
how to tell him that I want to make
sure I have time for my friends. Help?
Friends are an extremely important
factor in any romantic relationship. Aside
from sharing a friendship between the
two of you, you both need to maintain
relationships with your mutual and separate friends. These friendship ties can he
difficult to keep while attending separate
colleges during the school year; summer is a perfect opportunity to reconnect
with the people who have known you for
years. If you are worried that your boyfriend's plans will encroach on your time
with your friends, all you can do is talk to
him about this matter. Let him know that
you want to enjoy time with him, but you
also need time for your friends. Friends
are the support you can cling to when your
love life is rocky; don't abandon them!
A couple should not monopolize one another—if he has trouble understanding this
concept, maybe he is not worth your time.
I am studying abroad this summer. How can I make friends with
and/or
date
foreign
students?
Studying in a different country is a
great educational opportunity—new cultures, landscapes, languages, and people
can greatly enhance your overall life experience. If you are looking to connect with
others while studying abroad, be cautious.
Use street smarts and be wary of those
who could potentially take advantage of
your money, your information, or your
heart. I would advise keeping relationships on the lighter side—falling headover-heels for someone while studying in
a foreign country can have a heavy effect
on your educational plans as well as your
emotions. If you are looking for romance,
look for it in the history and art of the culture. Chances are, you will discover likeminded people who you can connect with
as you explore the country. Use email or
social networking to stay in touch upon
return—you individual experience will
determine to what extent you continue
any friendships or relationships. Be smart,
be yourself, and enjoy your time abroad.

The Buggies lamented that
"video killed the radio star"
with their classic 1979 single,
but CSUSM students are proving that radio rules the airwaves
once again. Broadcasting live
from campus, CSUSM College
Radio is gaining a reputation as
one of the leading media and entertainment sources for CSUSM
students. The organization was
recently recognized as the Best
New Student Org for 2011 at the
Tukwut Leadership awards night.
CSUSM College Radio began in Spring 2010 as a student
project in Dr. Youwen Ouyang's
software engineering class. Rosario Vizcaino was the mastermind
behind this idea, founding the radio program in spite of the obstacles involved in taking on such a
large project. "I had proposed the
idea of starting a web-based radio
since there was no radio on campus. My classmates thought the
project was very difficult to do,
so they opted for another project
and the group dropped the idea.
I then proceeded on my own and
within about two weeks the radio
was created," Vizcaino stated.
In a year's time, CSUSM Col-

spiration to reality. In 2010, Student Life and Leadership formally
recognized the radio program as a
student organization. The Student
Media Advisory Council (SMAC)
now recognizes the program as
an official student media outlet.
CSUSM College Radio is a
web based radio station that is
run "by students for the students"
according to its website, www.
csusm.info. Students can tune in
to several different shows, view a
schedule of show content and air
times, and contact the radio program via chat or messages. The
station features a variety of music
to suit any taste, so there is something for every CSUSM student.
Campus news and events are also
broadcast through the CSUSM
radio ether; the program often
makes an appearance at various
CSUSM happenings to give entertainment and live coverage.
Because of its primary focus
on student interests, CSUSM
College Radio strives to show appreciation for its audience. "Currently, we support all campus
orgs through live performances
and by advertising their events on
the web based radio page as well

diversity and encourage campus
involvement," Vizcaino said.
A positive, fast-paced future is
in store for CSUSM College Radio. Vizcaino assured students and
faculty that "interest for the radio
program is growing very rapidly.
I hope that soon we can have our
own official studio. Currently we
use the services provided by the
library such as the music studios
to broadcast live on our page. We
are currently in the development
of creating a training to show students how to DJ. We find there
to be a demand for DJ's and we
certainly would encourage those
who have a passion for music to
participate, we'll train you and
guide you. Currently, we have a
radio class taught by Joan Anderson. The class covers broadcast
and journalism for radio, print,
and web. It's a very good class for
those interested in radio broadcasting. This class helps us with
our different shows, as we have
to write scripts and agenda's that
prepare us for our live shows."
All are welcome to join
CSUSM College Radio meetings
every Monday from 1 - 2 p.m.
University Hall 458. For more
information and updates on this
up-and-coming program, visit

COUGARAPPS: A PREVIEW OF
CSUSM'S NEWEST ONLINE SERVICE
C HRIS G IANCAMILLI
M EDIA M ANAGER
This fall, Cal State San Marcos
will offer a new service to students
called CougarApps. CougarApps
allows all students and faculty to
download software available on
campus computers from the comfort of their homes. Through CougarApps, users can gain access to
programs such as SPSS, Maple,
MatLab, Crystal Ball, MiniTab,
NVIVO, and Adobe CS5. This
service is available for PC, Mac,
iPad, iPhone, Droid and any device with an Internet browser.
To access CougarApps, students and faculty can use their Internet browsers to access https://
cougarapps.csusm.edu.
From
there, users log in with their
CSUSM user-name and password
to download a browser plug-in.
Once the plug-in is installed, students can utilize any of the programs available from the list to
continue the work they started
at school. Many of the programs
offered are used in the labs on
campus, so any projects students
begin using school computers
can continue from anywhere a
student has Internet access. In
the fall, all instructor stations
and lab computers will come
equipped with CougarApps.
Unfortunately, not all campus
programs are available on CougarApps. Software licensing issues prevent CSUSM to make
every campus program available
for home use. CougarApps will
be available for free to all students and faculty next semester.

Questions arose regarding
whether or not CSUSM may have
had a slight advantage over the
other colleges that participated.
Do we use more paper, so we
recycle it more? With there being over 20 vending machines,
a cafeteria and a market, do we
sell and then recycle more plastic
bottles and cans? An unproven
rumor has been floating around
campus implying the main reason why we win each year is
that our campus janitorial staff
is specifically trained to separate
the recyclable materials out from
the trash. According the rules of
RecycleMania, "The competition's goal is to increase student
awareness and involvement in
campus recycling through collaboration and partnership with
participating schools," and says
nothing about the legality of
janitorial help within the competition. If the main goal of the
competition is get student to participate in recycling and we are
having the hard-working janitorial staff do most of the work for
us, then what are we the students
really learning about recycling?
With the many recycle bins
that stand next to each trash can
on campus, students are more than
capable of recycling by choosing where to toss their waste

CAMPUS CALLS FOR STUDENT INTERNS
GET CREDIT, GET PAID, GET EXPERIENCE
S ANDRA C HALMERS
E DITOR-IN-CHIEF
Resumes, cover letters, interviews and business suits all
ring the familiar bell of the rigorous race for employment and
as the weather heats up, so does
the competition for internships.
Though finding internships
relevant to your job field may
seem impossible, many opportunities actually exist closer than students may think.
Our campus features a variety of internship opportunities
available to students in many
disciplines all geared to provide
valued work experience. Specialized internships available on
campus include disciplines such
as health education, multimedia,
Sociology, and Kinesiology, just
to name a few. Using our university resources makes finding
and applying for these internships a simple hasslefreeprocess.
Some internships are unpaid, while others may offer
course credit. The most rewarding element of internships is the
priceless in-action experience.
The H.O.P.E (Health, Outreach, Promotion, Education) and
Wellness Center in connection
with Student Health and Counseling Services offer an internship opportunity composed of
students working to educate peers
by leading group discussions,
marketing campus awareness
events and aiding in the planning
and facilitating health workshops.
This internship requires about six
to eight hours of work per week.
Those interested in this internship
opportunity can contact Cathy
Nguyen, CSUSM's Health Educator, at cnguyen@csusm.edu.
Those with experience in website development, multimedia and
HTML can apply for an internship
to maintain a website for Kamp
Katrina. Kamp Katrina is a camp
that provides shelter to city street
musicians in New Orleans and is
in need of an intern that can assist in updating the website regularly. Those interested can also
receive internship units for Visual
and Performing Arts or Literature and Writing Studies. Interested applicants can contact lead
supervisor for the project, Dr.
Dawn Formo, Associate Dean for
Instruction and Academic Programs, at dformo@csusm.edu.
Internships available exclusively to Kinesiology majors at
the Clarke Field House present
opportunity for work in personal
training, ASI recreation and in
athletic training. Research opportunities within Kinesiology
offer a wide range of concentration topics and can also receive
internship units within the major. For more details and contact
information, visit www.csusm.
e du/kinesiology/interships.
Sociology internships present
a unique chance to "shadow" an
expert in the field of your choice
at a local agency; students may
present their suggestions for expert and agency prior to registering for internship credit and must
seek department approval. This
internship opportunity ranks high
among Sociology and Criminal
Justice majors as it is a required
capstone course need for graduation. Approval instructions and a
list of local agencies can be found
at www.csusm.edu/sociology/internship, deadline for Fall 2011

all paper work must be signed
and submitted by May 27, 2011.
Most majors offer an internship course for upper division
units and the study topics for
each discipline can vary from
semester to semester. Taking
internship courses help students make the most of learning environment in their major.
Other internship and job hunting search tools exclusive to our
student community include CougarJobs, CSUSM's very own job
search engine that enables local
employers on and off campus
to post job opportunities geared
for student workers and recent
graduates. In connection with the

THE PRIDE
PAR FOR THE COURSES
EXPERIENCE SAN DIEGO GOLFING
O WEN HEMSATH
PRIDE STAFF W RITER
The golf course may not be
the first place a college student
turns to for hot summer fun,
but an afternoon at the green
could turn out to be the best decision you make this summer.
Filled with fresh grass, clear
water ponds, ducks and funny
shoes, golf courses in San Marcos offer a great and relaxing
way to enjoy the summer sun
without exhausting your wallet or
your patience. Golf courses typically offer beverage services with
products ranging from a classic
Coke to bitter brews, and carry all
the excitement and fun associated
with an afternoon around friends
minus the crowds and the costs.
Golfing also provides its participants with a variety of sporting
options, and courses in the North
County area typically offer accommodations for beginners. For
example, while 18 holes may be a
bit much for newbie (as this may
take three to four hours of play
time), playing.the front or "back
9" holes could be an awesome
way to spend some time with
goodfriendsin good conversation
and practice that swing you've
been meaning to improve. No
clubs — no worries. Golf courses
offer rental clubs for daily use or
individual clubs for purchase in
case you'd like to build up your
set, and most courses offer drink
services along the way. Tee times
can range from $20 to $40 depending on your course and cart.
If a round is not your thing,
try the putting greens. Like a
mini-golf course without the
2-year olds (or the windmillshey, you can't have it all) the
putting greens allow a slower
pace for practicing putts while
still providing the same sunlight
and bar service you have come to
expect from a golf course. While
the greens only require a putter
and don't cost a thing, it's wise
to respect the tranquil environment known of sport while in this
arena. If chatter and laughs are
more your game the perhaps the
driving range could be your thing.
The driving range is a place
where you can release the stress
of finals without any concern
for property. Golf courses provide hundreds of square yards
of grass (and sometimes water)
where you can whack those golf
balls as hard as you want. There
are even times when a man drives
through the field in a protected
vehicle to collect the various golf
balls — pretend he's a teacher
or an unruly student or that seriously tough exam and do your
worst. The driving range is a
great place to release some energy, practice your swing, and
chat with some friends. Plus, it's
not to far from the drink service
and a small bucket of balls can
cost anywhere from $4 to $6.
So don't knock it before you
try it. Golfing could be the unlikely hero of your next outing
with friends. Try something new,
and get out to the greens this
summer. If you don't have the
balls, you can buy some there.

At an affordable price with un-

Although I am far from a successful bowler, and do not bowl
often, I thoroughly enjoyed the

appeals to both competitive participants and easygoing newcomers. "Granny" style throws, spin

HOW BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL TBADED PLACES
M ICHAEL R AWSON
SPORTS E DITOR
Funny
how
a
weekend can change everything.
While the CSUSM baseball team rose to unprecedented heights on Saturday, the
Softball team, without warning, suddenly fell to earth.
The baseball team reigns as
A.I.I. (American Independent Institutions) champion. The Softball
team is champion of the couch.
Last week, the Softball team
soared to #2 in the national
rankings, with a 39-7 record.
The baseball team, meanwhile,
won nine of their last 10, which
still left them#at 32-17, and out
of the top 25 altogether. Baseball received 4 points in the
May 3 poll. Softball got 648.
Last week, the A.I.I. named
Brenna Sandberg pitcher of the
year, and named Dave Williams
coach of the year. The baseball
team was still named the Cougars.
Last month, baseball entered
April looking pedestrian, with
a record of 18-12. The softball team entered April looking like Godzilla eating pedestrians, with a record of 29-5.
Last year, baseball feebly
bowed out of the All. championship, losing both of their games.
Softball, led by perfect pitching
from Brenna Sandberg, swept
their side of the A.I.I. championship. Then they won a few games
in the national championship
tournament for good measure.
But last week, the baseball
team boarded a plane bound for
Thomasville, GA, ready to take
their place as the #1 seed in the
conference tournament, cool and
full of confidence. The softball
team traveled only in a procession
of cars, down Highway 78 to the
CarlsbadMarriottoacceptawards.
In fairness, the other softball
squads traveled long distances to get to San Marcos. Most
were as tough as hour-old ballgame gum, and they were ready.
As usual, hardly anyone
touched Sandberg, who allowed
4 runs in 3 games. But the pitching dominance of the opposition — for once — would be
the Cougars's downfall, as the
powerful San Marcos lineup
managed only 1 run in both of
their shocking losses to Simon
Fraser and Houston-Victoria.
Back in Georgia, pitchers
might have well been replaced
with pitching machines. The big
bats of Johnny Omahen and Austin Coleman led the Cougars to
10, 21, and 10 runs in their three
victories, but they never looked
like sure winners. Yet victorious
they were, escaping in a week-
end firelight reminiscent of that
last scene in Scarface, entering an unfamiliar field and gunning down Thomas University
and Houston-Victoria (twice) to
automatically advance to the
NAIA national championships.
Softball, meanwhile, was
Tony Montana, powerful and
prominent, landing shots and
scoring a victory, but ultimately
getting gunned down in thenown home. How could this happen? A t. the CSUSM baseball
field on Saturday, there were
no celebrations, no interviews,
no answered questions. The
hosts had left the premises.
The championship field will
be announced this week, but the
golden girls must sit at home in
suspense and wait for a phone
call from the NAIA, wondering if the committee will choose
them as , a at-large bid for the national tournament in Alabama.
Any team ranked #2 nationally
just a week before the decision
should expect to be selected.
But there are only 4 spots to fill.
With this collapse, who knows?
CSUSM
baseball
players will wake up this week and
worry about the finals they must
study for and the papers they
will research and write, trying to maintain their focus in
the midst of their excitement.
Softball players will try to
overcome the anxiety of the unknown, hoping to get one last
shot. If their fortunes turn better
than Tony Montana's, and they
are given new life, expect nothing less than a championship effort. This was an accident. Coach
Williams's team can beat anyone, and given another chance,
it just might beat them all.

The Warped Tour, created by

tour has been sponsored by Vans

for the Taste of Chaos tours and
the Mayhem Festivals) had been
given the call by Vans to arrange
a skating fest that included live

crowd in the tour's early years
of the nineties, guaranteeing a
solid future for the annual event.
Originally, the tour featured
many bands pertaining to the
punk rock genre. Over the last few
years though, the music scene of
the tour has changed along with
the constantly changing generation of attendees and the tour has
night and each band plays about
a 30 minute set that usually intertwines or shares the times of
other bands on separate stages,
giving visitors the opportunity to
set up their own schedule of who
they want to see. Some of the artists featured on this year's main
stage are Gym Class Heroes,
Paramore, The Devil Wears Prada, Jack's Mannequin and many
more. Booths are set up on the
tour's grounds where attendees
tors could even meet up with the
bands after their sets). The event
has also taken opportunities to
conserve and recycle with the
Warped Tour Initiative, by saving
on fuel for buses, encouraging
guests to recycle for prizes and
even using a solar-powered stage.
This summer, Warped Tour

E DITOR-IN-CHIEF
<
Sebastian Maselli, a Mass Media senior in collaboration with
fellow CSUSM student Ryan
Smith, worked together for what
first began as a class film project that in turn grew to become a
voice of a generation. Screening
their work at this year's National
G.I Film Festival in Washington,
D.C, "Blood We Shed," surrounds
the lives of three injured Marines
that recall their experiences in
Iraq and expose truths about
life on and «off the battle field.
The Pride: What/who inspired you to create this film?
Sebastian Maselli: I was inspired by the stories of the Marines that I have served with,
they are the definition of toughness and determination. The

More options for summer vacation
M O R G A N HALL
LAYOUT A SSISTANT
With finals week in sight
and the semester coming to an
end, students have no doubt
been thinking about planning their summer plans.
Some students have plans
to travel to far off places such
as Finland or Africa. Others are
visiting family members both
away and back home. While the
rest of our students have no clue
what to do this summer and just
look forward to enjoying three months
f
^ ^ ^ doing what ever
they
want. If you
don't have
any plans
and love cars
and
music, then this
summer has
multiple options for you.
Do you enjoy looking at
c ustom
cars and hot-rods? Then Cruisin'
Grand in Escondido is the place
for you and the best part is that it
is free. This year's Crusin' officially opened April 1 and runs
eveiy Friday night 5 - 9 p.m. until
Sept. 30. Only a month into the
2011 season, Crusin" has already
hosted 700 cars and
2 2,000
spectators, This ann u a1
event allows peop 1e
to spend a few
hours in
downtown Esc ondido
meeting
friends and
enjoying cool
cars, listening
to independent
bands and eating
great food. Restaurants and pubs
located on and around Grand Avenue are open late hours on Friday night and occasionally have
specials for spectators. Parking
for Cruisin' Grand
is located on Grand
Avenue and all
side streets from
E scondido t o
Ivy
Street.
If
you
love
all
types of cars, or anything with a motor, then
you are going to love this years
San Diego County Fair. The San
Diego County Fair, formally
known as thé Del Mar Fair, has
the theme of Race to the Fair
and celebrates modern and historic automobiles. Opening June
10 and running until July 5 and
closed June 13,20 and 17, the fanis an annual tradition not to be

A/
a dults,
$7 children 6-12 and seniors 62 and older. This year the

where tickets prices are reduced
or ride prices are cut. The best
deal for the fair is on June 14 and
tickets are only $3 when you buy
them through an Albertsons or

Summer is finally here, and
some of the most anticipated
movies of the year are coming
to a theatre near you very soon.
"Thor" and "Fast Five" are already tearing up the box office,
but The Pride provides a guide
to the many other soon-to-be
blockbusters that everybody's
looking forward to this summer.
"Pirates of the Caribbean:
On Stranger Tides"
(May 20)
The fourth film in the incredibly lucrative "Pirates" franchise
doesn't star Orlando Bloom, Kiera Knightley or any of the million subplots that plague the
last two films, but it does see
Johnny Depp's long-awaited return as good old Captain Jack.
Even better, the beautiful Penelope Cruz joins Jack on his
search for the fountain of youth,
and the return of his frequently-lost ship, the Black Pearl.
"The Hangover Part II" f
(May 26)
While it may seem hard to
Fun Facts-
" Autobots, roll
O ptimus Prime voicecFb;
top the comedic genius of the
first film, "the wolfpack" is back
for more, this time on a journey
to find the younger brother of
Stu's (Ed Helms) fiancée, who
they lose in the middle of Bangkok after yet another night of
drug-induced madness. A monkey, a Mike-Tyson face tattoo
and a rumored celebrity cameo all factor into the mystery.
"Green Lantern''
(June 17)
"Green Lantern" has been
hotly anticipated by comic geeks
the world over, partially because
the titular hero is the first DCcomics character beside Superman and Batman to get his own
film. The film stars Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan, a playboy test
pilot who becomes a superhero
when he is given a powerful ring
by an extraterrestrial and must
use his newfound powers to protect Earth from the forces of evil.
"Cars 2"
(June 24)
The first direct Pixar sequel since the Toy Story movies, "Cars 2 " sees Lightning
McQueen (Owen Wilson) on
a cros^-qpuntîy, toyp* to
|he
prestigious World Grand Prix,
while his best pal Mater (Larry,
the Cable Guy) gets caught up in
a world of espionage and intrigue
when he is recruited as a spy.
"Transformers:
Dark of the Moon"
(July 1)
While a worldwide success,
the second "Transformers" film
wasn't incredibly popular with
critics, or Megan Fox for that
matter, who left the production's
third installment. However, the
trailer promises some epic action that few will be able to resist,
as the Autobots race to reach an
important artifact on the moon
before the evil Decepticons do.
"Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows: Part II"
(July 15)
To call the eighth Harry Potter
film the most anticipated film of
the summer would be an understatement, the most anticipated
film of the past decade would
be a more reasonable label. The
final installment of the most successful film franchise, in history,
picks up where the last film left
off and promises to tie up all the
loose ends, with lots of typically
great performances and nonstop 4ctiony,ail in glojjous 3D.

The Visual and Performing Arts Department hosted
its tenth annual dance concert
performance, "OffCentre,"
May 5 - 6 in Arts 111.The
free event provided
an opportunity
for dance
students to share
concepts through
movement and to
"open up expectations of what
dance is to the public," said Karen
Schaffman,
Associate Professor
of Dance and Production Director.
T he. student-run
stage production
featured 11 works
created by dance
students and faculty. Participants
chose their own
genre, theme, costumes and music
using elements and
techniques learned
in Choreography,
„ Contemporary
Technique, Global
Modern Dance and
Theatre Production
and Design classes.
Genres included
a mix of ballet,
jazz, street, hip-hop
and global modern
daiice, beginning
with an emotive,
contemporary piece
called "Jar of Hearts."
Dancers performed to the
disjointed rhythms of Beats
Antique in "UNO," a street
dance with an urban flare.
An energetic performance
matic portrayal of a modern
love triangle in "Bitter Sweet."
Two impeccably timed,
lively dances picked up the
pace just before intermission
in "Le Jazz Hot" and "Creature of the Night," a sexy burlesque combination of works
to music by Cher, Queen
Latifah, Marilyn Monroe and
Christina
Aguilera.
The
mood
turned somber after
inter
mission in
"The Red
C," a work dedicated to thousands of
dolphins slaughtered in Taiji,
Japan, by a group of six choreographers and dancers. With
a video running in the background from the 2009 docu-
mentary "The Cove," dancers
moved fluidly about the stage
like a community of dolphins
ending in agonizing death.
In "Tribute to
Tagore,"
Dance 320 students performed
pieces to a collection of poems by Rabindranath Tagore
(1861-1941). Born in Calcut-
ta, India, Tagore was the first
Asian to receive the Nobel
Prize for Literature in 1913
as a poet, novelist, playwright
and visual artist. Tagore challenged traditional Indian dances, according to the "OffCentre" program, by focusing on
"naturalistic expression of
human emotional experience." In the first
dance recognizing a collection
of ppems by
Tagore, dancers
moved
around the
stage with
tea lights in
their hands,
forming
two symmetrical circles center
stage, then
merging together in a
spectacular
natural light
show.
A
t raditional
Indian harvest dance
followed,
inspired
by Bengali
folk music
r epresenting seasons ;
and village
life, including traditional hand
movements
such as the
"bird" and
the "locust,"
dancer Chanel
Bradley
said.
Two
groups choreographed and _
performed beautifully in "Reflection" and "Trouble
is a Friend" to music
by Lenka. An ensemble
of five energetic hip hop
numbers with music by Rihanna, Sucka Free CJ, Ke$ha,
Usher, and Pink completed the
evening in the crowd-pleasing finale "World War You."

our normal school schedules.
One pivotal college experience is
quite simple, not that expensive,
and can (potentially) reveal a lot
about you and the personalities of
those you travel with: road trip.
My limited knowledge of
long-term travel has led me to
one conclusive thought: road
trips are made or broken by the
music that accompanies them.
You might get stuck with the annoying guy who hogs the chips
or the relative who snores, but
strategically placed tunes tend
to fix most anything within
the square footage of a sedan.
Some songs beg for the road.
I don't know what it is about me
and Cameron Crowe films, but
"Tiny Dancer" by Elton John
as utilized in "Almost Famous"
is practically anthemic in the
context of a highway. Another
Crowe movie, "Elizabethtown,"
with its indulgent use of the
mix tape, uses John's "My Father's Gun" as another powerful
tune with a resonating chorus.
For some reason, Crosby,
Stills, Nash and Young are the
best representation of '70s music I can come up with. Along
with Jackson Browne and James
Taylor, road trip playlists will
have that special bit of nostalgia
combined with just damn good
lyrics. Key tracks: "Helpless,"
"Sky Blue and Black," "Running
on Empty" and "Fire and Rain "
With every classic, there must
be something modern for balance. Kings of Convenience, an
electro-folk pop band, bring that
special mix of composition and
jive to playlists with songs like
"I'd Rather Dance with You"
and "Know How " Icelandic artist Bjork has a track called "All
is Full of Love" that has as much
electrónica as it does emotion.
As for a playlist's requisite
rock, Led Zeppelin's "Since I've
Been Loving You" is a must.
[For the best vibe, use the live
version off "How the West Was
Won." All the imperfections
make it sound fresh.] Although
incomparable, The Black Keys
have some purely rocking songs
that are easy to listen to and almost pop-driven. Some of the
band's road-ready tracks include
"Do the Rump," "Everlasting
Light" and "Thickfreakness."
A few tunes for good measure: "Dress Looks Nice on
You" by Sufjan Stevens, "All I
Need" by Radiohead, "Ragged
Wood" by Fleet Foxes, "Gray
Stables" by Iron & Wine, "Natural Anthem" by the Postal Service, "Saturday Sun" by Nick
Drake, "Harvest Moon" by Neil
Young and "Hold Music" by
Architecture in Helsinki. Of
course, these are just my personal
playlist standbys. Humor me.
Although I know (and you can
surely tell) that I haven't included
all that I want to, there's one song
I just couldn't feel right about
leaving off a road trip playlist:
"America" by Simon and Garfunkel. The lyrics portray the innocence of youth in an epic way,
I'd recommend beginning the
road trip with this track. I guarantee it will make you feel free.
Good playlists have variety and feeling. They must be
tailored to fit individual tastes
but familiar enough to have the
right energy. Enjoy the trip and
absorb the music. No matter - how many miles you travel, it
will go quicker than you think.

never read a "Thor" comic, there
is no need to worry; the storyline
is simple enough for everyone to
understand. The film also subtly
introduces the superhero Hawkeye. So subtly in fact that unless
you have been following "The

would have no idea that Jeremy

I say hands down this movie
is fantastic and will no doubt

fell short was the computerized
scenory. With "Avatar" paving
the way and introducing a new
film future of crystal clean, realistic scenery, "Thor" could have
been top notch, if only they had
implemented this new technique,
A word to the wise, stay until the very end of the film. Stay
glued to your seat and continue
to watch past the closing credits. There is a clip exploring an
alternate ending, hinting at next
summer's "Avenger" movie.
