Volume 85 (Fall 2013 – Spring 2014)
The leaves begin to turn beautiful shades of oranges and reds on the trees. The air becomes crisp and scents of apple and pumpkin spice fill the air. While the summer is the perfect time to relax away from school and possibly even at the beach, autumn at the University is unlike anything else.
Around midnight on July 13, my Tumblr and Twitter started blowing up with rumors that “Glee” star Cory Monteith died. Everyone from Justin Bieber to Britney Spears has been rumored dead on the internet at some point, so these things aren’t taken all that seriously anymore.
Every year, the University’s professional theatre, Shadow Lawn Stage, performs a show in the summer. This year, they produced “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” but it wasn’t just professional actors involved in the production. Multiple University students and alumni earned parts in the play, helping them boost their resume and gain experience in a professional setting.
With a rather puny library of games and disappointing quarterly sales, it would be a vast understatement to call the Wii U’s first year a rocky start. While the Nintendo consoles lineup will prove to pick up steam later this year, the console’s “killer app” might already be here in the form of “Pikmin 3.”
Maybe you don’t think of the University as a place to foster the education of the next superstar of the rap world, but you might be wrong. Junior Andrew Boxman has been rapping for well over a decade, and hopes to be able to make a living off it one day.
