International Student mentor Radosav Babic decided to do something special for the multitudes of students hailing from abroad here at Brevard College. “I was thinking about what I should do, and I was thinking about how appreciative we foreigners are of techno music, so I thought, ‘what better to do than to throw a party like we have in Europe?’” Babic’s brainchild produced a techno dance, which will be held in the Reserve Dining Hall of Myers Cafeteria this Saturday, Nov. 15 from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. All the essentials for a raving good time will be provided, including glow sticks, disco balls, and strobe lights. Spinning for the festivities will be the event organizer himself, DJ Backo, as well as the president of the Green Hall Residence Hall Council, DJ Ben. Babic expects the dance to be well attended. “I am expecting around 100 people or so. We should get all the international students, so that is at least 35 or 40 people, and then I'm pretty sure that some Americans will come too,” Babic said. Babic is looking forward to there being a carefree feeling to the party, but has hired sophomore Vance Crook as a bouncer in case things get out of hand. “I will throw people through a window. And it will not be fun. Behave yourself,” Crook said. Babic believes that his dance will not only be a fun, nostalgic evening for international students, but that it will also be a good cultural experience for American students who decide to come. “While rap and country and all that are good, people should try to come out and experience other types of music,” Babic said. “This will be a unique chance for Americans to see how us ‘foreigners’ party.” For more information on the event, please contact Radosav Babic.
