Obviously, the Earth
Ryan Murphy
Bored with what’s going
on here at campus? Well, you
shouldn’t be. Curt Crowhurst
and his crew at Twister Produc
tions have much in store for
upcoming weeks at B C.
Many activities have
been lined up to appeal to
everyone. In fact, usually
numerous activities are planned
for each day. As for this
reporter, I am new here on
campus, so I can not as of yet
share my personal insight on the
success of these events, but
some of the students I have
spoken with definitely can.
Sophomore Charlotte
Courtney boasts that Twister
Productions “gives students
entertainment that the town
lacks.” Former president of
Twister Wendy Byerly adds that
Twister, “is the social key here
on campus,” and newcomer
Jessie Scott declares that the
activities are among “the best
things going here on campus.”
If you think Twister
sounds great, you’re not alone.
As for me, I will check out some
of these events, and I look
forward to seeing you there too.
GETTING IN
TOUCH WITH
OUR ROOTS
Aimee Salzer
Everyday is Earth Day, but
off course it’s fim to set a few
days aside to really give our
environment some attention.
The plans for B C Earth Day
1999 are already underway! The
Earth Day organizers have come
up with some creative ideas to
really get the community
involved. The earth’s children
are its future, so the Team would
like to have children involved in
our celebration.
Ideas include a fashion
show of thrift store clothes (to
show it is better to reuse), a bike
parade where the kids can sport
their wheels (foot power is way
better than fossil fuels) and lots
of environmental games that
involve taking a look at nature.
Do you have a secret
desire to take trash and turn it
into a masterpiece? Now’s your
chance! We hope to have all of
our Van Gogh’s and Picasso s
help to build sculptures from our
everyday trash. Everyone can
join in on the celebration, and
after the daytime festivities the
campus will celebrate Earth
Night with dancing, a bonfire,
music, and generally wild times.
The entire week will
center on activism. Some
questions to be answered will
include “how to write an environ
mental grant” and “how to form a
grassroots organizations.
Day organizers have been
working hard to think up some
great ideas, but there’s always
room for more. If you want to
get in on a great time that is also
good for the planet, get in touch
with Linda Helms on ext. 8275
or stop by and see her in
Coltrane Commons.
