Korean tale shows culture
The University of South Dakota’s production of “The Mirror Princess” not only brings a South Korean fairy tale to the stage, but displays the physical strength and vocal talent of the Theatre Department. “The Mirror Princess” is a traditional South Korean fairy tale about a young peasant girl who dreams of becoming a princess.

COLUMN: Not-so-forced fun
For my date with Blaine, he asked if I liked Asian food, and I do, so we went to Silk Road. Both upon our arrival and our departure, he displayed a chivalrous personality by opening doors for me, which I greatly appreciated. While we ordered two separate entrees, he was more than willing to share […]
BLOG: Names cause problems for the Girl with the Glasses
What is in a name? An interesting question, Mr. Shakespeare. It’s a question that caused no little bit of controversy on Facebook this last week. Sometimes when I’m lying awake at night and pondering my life, I consider my name. Sometimes I say it to myself over and over again. “Jackie.” After a while, […]
BLOG: A professional procrastinator’s realization
I have a confession to make; I don’t know how to deal with change. I like to make it seem like I know what I’m doing and that I can go with the flow, but to be honest, it’s really hard for me to wrap my mind around change, no matter how big or small […]

Knowledge can be accumulated forever and quickly lost, but it is intuitive understanding that lasts for an entire life, maturing until old age. As children, we learn to share, then quickly forget as […]
COLUMN: Improvising keeps things fresh
Everyone is busy in college. Maintaining a good GPA, social life and keeping your bank account full can be very difficult. My date for this week got thrown a curveball. Initially, I had made plans to take my date on an outing Thursday night, but she had to cancel at the last minute because of […]
REVIEW: Comedy ruined with awkward, bad acting
In recent years, comedy has dropped so low that “funny” is no longer the word to describe the genre. The latest example of this is “Identity Thief.” The plot is as straightforward as the title — Jason Bateman has his identity stolen by Melissa McCarthy. One catch is that he is from Colorado and the […]
REVIEW: STRFKR third album amps up electronics
To be perfectly honest, I only found out about Starfu*cker through their name. I figured it’d be something unnecessarily discordant and metal-y (think Nine Inch Nails’ song “Starf*ckers, Inc.”). Instead, what I heard was “Rawnald Gregory Erickson the Second”: three minutes of tight, quirky, dance-inflected indie rock. Now, on their third album, “Miracle Mile,” STRFKR […]
