Punk rock can be a monotonous genre when people are unwilling to grow up. Thankfully, some punk artists recognize the importance of change and use it to release better, more mature (or at least different) albums.
How would you react if someone came up to you and asked you to put your hand into a bag of fun? A lot of students around campus felt confused as they were approached and asked to reach their hand into a seemingly random bag and take an item from it.
Nino Monea, current student body vice president and graduating senior, could be described as a man of many suits.
Soft pretzels don’t seem to belong to the realm of the home kitchen. They pop up in gas stations or malls, where they can be drizzled in cheese that strongly resembles melted plastic. But there I was, having a snack of cheese and crackers, and thinking about how the crackers really resembled the flavor of soft pretzels.
Here are two pop albums. Shakira’s self-titled album, which shows her dominating at ballads, and Kylie Minogue’s “Kiss Me Once,” a mostly dull dance-pop album.
It’s a safe bet that nearly half of EMU’s population has read Marvel or DC comics either growing up, or even today as a college student. Comics are a huge part of our history in America and more than that, the comic industries are among the most popular hobbies of the current generation, cherished by people both young and old. This is especially true now that superhero movies have really taken off.
Consent. Consent. Consent. It was the number one topic at Tuesday’s Consent Week event, “Healthy Sexuality.”
On Monday at the Student Center, Eastern Michigan University welcomed depression and suicide prevention speaker Jeff Edwards to talk about warning signs of depression and how to seek help for those who need it or might know someone who is in peril.
I’ve been thinking about chocolate mousse for a while. It’s so classically elegant, and looks gorgeous when it is served in a goblet or glass dish. Not only does it look good, but the smooth chocolate taste is wonderful. I thought it might be about time to try it myself, rather than looking at dessert menus at restaurants.
On Wednesday, April 2, the Student Center Auditorium will be filled with song and dance honoring the king of pop himself, Michael Jackson. Two timeslots are being offered for the show, 5:30-7 p.m. and 8-9:30 p.m., to assure enough seating for everyone who wishes to attend.
After falling short in October, another attempt to set the Guinness World Record for the most Rosie the Riveters gathered in one location was held on Saturday. This time, the record was successfully broken.
I like to think that pie holds a special spot in every American heart. It’s strewn about our popular ideas of American history, from Thanksgiving tables to “Little House on the Prairie” scenes. We reach for disposable pie tins and prepared piecrusts in the grocery store, but pies baked like that are a far cry from pies baked a hundred years ago.
On Thursday, March 27, The Phelps Hall Resident Advisors hosted a late night program in the Rec/IM. The Rec/IM stayed open until 2 am, a deviation from the usual hours of operation on weekdays.
Most of the common hobbies today—sewing, crocheting, candlemaking, etc—have been around as long as people have needed things like clothes and candles. While these are fun and useful, they’re not particularly groundbreaking. With this being the generation of internet sharing, a few cool and unusual twists on everyday crafts have come into being.
It’s an indie-rock day. Tokyo Police Club generally produces a few gems per album, but they aren’t hugely consistent. Still, the gems they write hit harder than you would expect. Foster the People can write decent tunes when they feel like it, but their lyrics too often bring front man Mark Foster’s pretentions front and center.
The scientific and artistic prowess of Eastern Michigan University students is often underestimated.
On Monday, March 24, an event called “Clara Barton and Susie King Taylor: Pioneering Nurses on the Civil War Battlefield” was held in room 219 at Pray-Harrold. Laura Schultz Pipis, chief executive officer of the Monroe County Chapter of the Red Cross, gave a speech about two woman nurses during the Civil War, Clara Barton and Susie King Taylor.
Singer-songwriter Dan Willson (stage name Withered Hand) and The Hold Steady are similar in quite a few ways. Willson was raised a Jehovah’s Witness while The Hold Steady’s Craig Finn was raised Catholic and in both cases, spirituality and religion are recurring themes in their lyrics. They also write catchy tunes, complete with “oh”s and “la”s, to go along with their masterful lyricism.
On March 24, Eastern Michigan University’s performing arts organization I.M.A.G.E. (Inspired Motivational Activists Geared Toward Education) hosted their second annual Dine to Donate at Aubree’s Pizzeria and Grill in Ypsilanti. During the event, 15 percent of everyone’s bill was donated to I.M.A.G.E. in proceeds to raise funds for upcoming shows and events.
Selfishness is the factor that sets the timer to a huge bomb in an intimate relationship. Someone cheating on their significant other can bring a tremendous amount of intensity and distrust into a relationship.
