Sayonara Sag-Faces — It’s Been Apathetic
By Chris Kokiousis
I’ve always felt like the odd one out at UCSD. The moment I walked into my Tioga freshman triple, I felt isolated — I realized I was going to be the token white kid for an entire year, and I’d never experienced such culture and identity shock. Whenever I’d peek into my suitemates’ rooms on a [...]
When Life Gives You Hate, Make a Musical
By Simone Wilson
If you’ll accept my disclaimer: I do understand the tenderness of this topic. Racist gags at UCSD, all inexcusable, have been consuming our thoughts and guts for almost three weeks now; personally, it’s hard to remember a time when Geisel Library made me think of cool spaceships instead of lynches/punctured pillowcases, or the days when [...]

Heartbreak, in Four Panels
By Philip Rhie
I’m gonna be honest here and say that the request for this week’s column has been a little more than awkward. I don’t have anything to really say, since nothing’s really been going on in my head besides my personal and professional (read: academic) life. But, having just finished drawing my latest strip, I figure that, [...]
The Eighth Annual Anti-Oscars
By Guardian Hiatus
Most Underrated “Fantastic Mr. Fox” Speaking as someone who winces at the name Wes Anderson, I have to give it to him: His shit may be fucking kitsch and overrated, but “Fantastic Mr. Fox” wasn’t half bad. If anything, Anderson’s stop-motion, miniature marvel was unfairly eclipsed because of the cutesy iron curtain trailing “Up” (whose reviews were as [...]
High-Brow Hip-Hop
By Janani Sridharan
He’s known in the hip-hop world as Night Prowl Mike Gao — and, fittingly, a good spot to find him is at the music building after midnight. No, he’s not a creeper or anything. He’s just a 24-year-old hip-hop beatmaker/ first-year computer-music Ph.D. candidate with a thing for staying up all night making music. “Oh man, the [...]
FILM
‘Bourne’ Photocopy Weighted in Baghdad Baggage
By Neda Salamat
“Green Zone” Starring Matt Damon & Khalid Abdalla Directed By Paul Greengrass Rated R 01:55 Green Zone” follows patriotic Chief Miller (Matt Damon) on his hunt for weapons of mass destruction through a war-torn Iraq. As its WMD team raids empty warehouses and other abandoned, deteriorating buildings, Miller begins to suspect that the intelligence arriving from undisclosed source “Magellan” are [...]
THEATER
Pants-off Dance-off
By Gretchen Wegrich
It may be grim, but there’s enough humor in Anton Chekhov’s dark comedy “The Seagull,” this week’s headliner at Mandell Weiss Forum, that you can leave your Prozac at home. Silly and sad, it’s perfect date fodder for a mismatched couple. Konstantin, a young and unappreciated playwright, is at the center of a messy love pentagon [...]
ART
Origin of the Species
By Gretchen Wegrich
If you’ve never experienced a Mandeville Center cultural event, consider giving conceptual artist Lauren Woods’ multimedia exhibit “M(other)land” a quick peek the next time you find yourself near Main Gym. While the messages behind some of her videos and images are sometimes hard to grapple, a long look at the new exhibit reveals the Bay Area [...]

MUSIC
The Ruby Suns Aren’t Here to Impress You
By Chris Kokiousis
The Guardian: Could you talk a little bit about Auckland’s current music scene? Are there a lot of other bands from the city playing a similar style of music as you? What’s going on with current music trends in Auckland and New Zealand on a larger scale? Ryan McPhun: I don’t think we fit into any [...]
