French Fashions Are Still Stylish on UMW Campus
By SARAH KELLY Christine Nolan knows how to get dressed in the morning. This week’s profile, a junior majoring in French and studio art, exudes a sense of personal style that emanates more from her recent travels than from the world of fashion. After returning from studying abroad in Grenoble, France last semester, Nolan draws [...]
Dancing, Singing and Culture at Gospelfest
By JAMIA JORDAN On Sunday, Feb. 12, the University of Mary Washington will host its annual Gospelfest, celebrating African-American culture through the art of music and dance in Dodd Auditorium, George Washington Hall at 4 p.m. Every year the Multi-Cultural Center, along with the UMW gospel singing group, Voices of Praise, come together to arrange [...]
A Healthy Super Bowl Snack
By CHARLOTTE RODINA For me, the Super Bowl is all about food. Yeah, the game will probably be on in the background this Sunday (who’s playing again?), but I’ll be watching from a spot that’s close to the kitchen counter. Of course, a lot of students will simply order a pizza from Vocelli’s, making use [...]
“Smash” Gives “Glee” Some Competition
Not all musical television dramas are created equal. Comparing NBC’s new show “Smash” to the ever popular “Glee” is like comparing apples to oranges; sure, they are a little similar but in the end one is much better than the other.

Josh Kovacs [...]

The Underground Programming Council (UPC) hosted its annual Winter Carnival in Lee Hall on Friday evening, Jan. 27. The event – primarily publicized online through outlets like Facebook and Twitter – advertised the program as [...]
“Ghost Protocol” the Best “Mission” Yet
Remember when Tom Cruise was a superstar who sat down on couches and didn’t worship alien ghosts? Of course not. It was way before your time. Tom Cruise movies used to be box office events whether they were feel-good dramas, romantic comedies or action-packed brawls. Now his films are anything but, and few and far [...]
“Beast” is Still a “Beauty” in 3-D
By MADELINE MCDONALD School may be back in session, homework might be piling up already, and your back might be aching from carrying all those books, but there is one bright ray of happiness that can light up the darkness of mid-January: “Beauty and the Beast,” the decades old Disney classic, has been released in [...]
Odds Are You’ll Enjoy “50/50″
By CHRISTOPHER VELLUCCI This weekend Cheap Seats will be offering two movies for your viewing pleasure: “Footloose” and “50/50.” If you can only choose one to go to, choose “50/50.” Joseph Gordon-Levitt gives an incredible performance as Adam Lerner, a 27-year- old that is told he has a form of cancer with a 50-50 chance [...]
