THON Week Kicks off Today

With a little less than a month until our favorite weekend of the year, this week will offer a variety of events for students to get involved and hyped for THON. Starting tonight with a THON Bowl, see what other events are scheduled for the rest of the week.

Calling All Musicians: Arts Crawl Wants You

SOMA is looking for the bands and artists of the student body to provide the music for the 6th annual Arts Crawl which is scheduled for March 30th. Artists from disciples ranging from photography and sculpture will be represented, this open casting call is an opportunity for musicians at Penn State to have their jams heard. Learn more on how to apply (and try to catch the subtle Go Go Gadget diss) after the jump.

Onward Debates: Workshops Worthwhile

In my article announcing the newly established Canning Workshops, I expressed my views on their purpose.

DSH: <em>The Big Lebowski</em> at State Theatre

The event, held Friday evening in Manhattan, featured a less robust attendance than either of Erickson's Pennsylvania appearances--in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia--but the 300 who made the trek to the Financial District and the Downtown Marriott on a bone-chillingly cold winter night came prepared to ask the right questions.
