Although Final Four games are over and the fires have been extinguished, students and faculty members are still ablaze over the events that occurred on Fourth Avenue a week ago. The Dean of Students office is sponsoring an open forum on the UA Mall today at noon where the campus community can voice their opinions about the game and the riotous events. Complaints will also be taken by e-mail at voice@u.arizona.edu or at Old Main, Room 213. For more information, call the Dean of Students at 621-7059.
Put on your third-grade tap shoes, pick up the violin you stopped playing ages ago, and head on over to the Modern Languages building auditorium at 7:30 p.m. to get your second chance at fame. The German Film Series is screening, "All-Around Reduced Personality," a film about a mediocre singer and her dream of showcasing her talent to the world. The movie, in German with English subtitles, combines German culture with universal childhood desires to create a comedic look into an underground subculture. For more information, contact Barbara Kosta at 621-7389.
Are you confused by media representations of your race, religion or sexual identity? If you're looking for a little clarification, check out today's Martin Luther King discussion series on Identity and Internationalism. This open forum will provide students with the opportunity to voice their concerns and ask questions of other students and faculty members in a safe environment. The panel discussion begins at 6 p.m. in the MLK center, Room 100. For more information, call African American Student Affairs at 621-3419.
Thursday has finally arrived, and that means it is almost time to kick off your weekend. Start the festivities off with a little noise from five local bands and a lot of fun in the sun. From 3:30 to 7:30 p.m., bands, including Turban Jones and Fire Engine Red, will play a few notes outside of the Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall. Free eegee's will be served, so bring a friend and have a ball. For more information, contact Brad Durkee at 695-1706.
Today is the day to break all of the rules. Bring your food to the Main Library and talk in decibels above a whisper at today's Emily Dickinson storytelling with reader Ronnie Lancaster. Learn to appreciate Emily Dickinson for her poetry, prose and life story as told by a man who has taken her journey many times. The reading begins at noon in Room A313, and refreshments will be served. For more information, call Barbara Allen at 621-2373.
