I'm working on a paper on how rumors get spread and I'm looking for campus-related information. Soooo...... Have you heard of rumors on campus that you'd like know are true or false? Anything from stories about buildings, construction, and new campus facilitiies, to payoffs and scandals, to mysterious deaths. Burning questions about your University that you're dying to know. Post them here. I'll post the truths when I find them. Current Mood:

 giddy25th February 2006Interested in learning about the alternatives to the Republicans and Democrats? Curious about the Green Party but not sure if it's for you. Then come to the Green Party Teach-In at Allen Hall! Monday, February 27th at 7pm in the South Rec Room the Campus Greens will be hosting a presentation on the Green Party. This presentation will include the values of the Green Party, key issues, its history, and information on other third parties. There will be snacks! Monday February 27th Allen Hall South Rec Room 13th February 2006So it seems to be about time to start something. I'm interested in starting some kind of band in Allen Hall. I myself play guitar and am interested in singing, so I suppose I'm looking for a bassist, a drummer, and another guitarist for a start. I have no particular genre in mind. Just to get some people together to play some covers, and hopefully start writing stuff. If nothing else, it'll be an experiment. My own musical tastes lie mostly in the alternative (early 90s), metal (but I don't want a band that plays nothing but power chords and has guttural screams for vocals), and other hard rock. If you're interested in trying this out, contact Eric Savage via facebook or e-mail (dagdrommare@gmail.com), or AIM(Genius Madness) Current Mood:

9th February 2006So, does anybody reading this actually live in Allen Hall anymore? If so, it'd be peachy if maybe you could spread word about the community here and try to breathe some life in to it. Things have been dead for quite some time.
