CATCALLS
It's almost like breakfast in bed: Bring your lunch to the Student Union's Cellar today and be serenaded by the soothing sounds of Headboard. Eat to the Beat has brought this talent all the way from Southern California - make them feel welcome, won't you? They will be playing from 11:45 p.m. to 12:45 p.m. Call Jake McLaughlin at 621-1111 for further information.
One of these things is not like the other: Hear Harry Greene (University of California, Berkeley) discuss "Problems and Perspectives for the Study of Behavioral Homology" this afternoon at 4 p.m. This particular Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Seminar will be held in Room 301 of the Biological Sciences West building. Susana Noriega-Edmond can answer your questions at 621-1588.
One of the many ways professors at this university determine whether or not you've done the assigned reading is to make you write an essay on it - with citations. How does one write a convincing (and correctly formatted) paper of this sort? Let Kendra Gaines (Writing Skills Improvement Program) show you how at tonight's Weekly Writing Workshop. Meet in Room 310 of the Modern Languages building at 5 p.m. to improve your "Documented Essay: Organization, Works Cited, Checklist for Revision." Contact Donna Rabuck at 621-5849 for more information.
Get inside the head of an artist tonight at 5:30. Christopher Phillips (senior editor of Art in America, instructor in the MFA Photography Program at the School of Visual Arts, NY) invites you to see the "New Objectivity" of Albert Renger-Patzsch via a slide show. Be in the Auditorium of the Center for Creative Photography, and prepare to be dazzled by avant-garde attitudes and the war between man and the machine. Call the CCP at 621-7968 for details.
Today marks the 60th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the "Night of Broken Glass." In remembrance, the German Studies Department has prepared a video, background discussion, eyewitness talks and panel discussion presentation to take place from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Senior Ballroom of the Student Union. Thomas Kovach, at the German Studies Department, can fill you in at 621-7385.
Treat yourself to a night under the stars at the Steward Observatory Public Evening Series Lecture. Elizabeth Green will discuss "Hot Blue Stars in Cool Red Star Clusters" from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in Room N210 of the Steward Observatory. After she fills your mind with knowledge, the undergraduate students majoring in astronomy and the like will fill it with wonder - they will be operating the Observatory's 21-inch telescope, through which you are invited to view the night sky (weather permitting). Give Connie Walker a call at 621-7096 if you have any questions.
