However, director Terry Johnson’s stage adaptation of “The Graduate” does just that. From the first notes of Simon and Garfunkel to the falling of the final curtain, this cinematic classic tantalizes […]

You know that song you hear one time and can’t get out of your head, the one where all you can remember is a snippet of it, and you can’t figure out what it’s called or who it’s by for the life of you? This is the song that keeps you up at night when […]

Over the course of a year in the Student Association, certain themes continually reappear. Borrowing on a familiar one, this year’s election season has already seen significant controversy stemming from decisions by the Joint Elections Committee – the body charged with overseeing an impartial student election.
