Thursday evolves sound with album
I’m not the biggest Thursday fan, not to say they don’t have musical talent, because they do. But even I like their sixth and newest album “No Devolución,” which will be released Tuesday. Well, Thursday, you have impressed me, but why isn’t your album coming out on Thursday?
Since I’m not a Thursday fan, I haven’t heard many of their songs, b [...]
Comedian Buteau graces Fort Hays
For 10 years, comedian Michelle Buteau has been going from stage to stage doing what she loves. She started off just writing funny articles about the daily things she would see, like the local hobo.
Her friends thought she was hilarious and ended up convincing her to do what she does today. She first attended college and majored in TV product [...]
Artist’s Corner: Q and A with S...
Q: What’s your major?
A: Graphic Design.
Q: What do you want to do with that in the future?
A: I’m not quite sure. At first, I wanted do art therapy, and Hays doesn’t offer that, so I was just a studio major. Then I went into nursing for about two weeks. And then I realized that I really enjoy Graphic Design, and so far it’s been good. But I [...]
Drag show backs sexual equality
Students scrutinize one of the “girls” at the drag show Thursday night in Cody Commons. The show, organized by the Gay Straight Alliance, was organized to support equality.
Rocking the stage with songs like “Single Ladies,” “Forget You,” “Ladies Man,” “Baby,” “Strong Enough” and “Love Game” were provided by the lovely men and women who put on [...]
3DS is A-OK
You know what’s great about Nintendo? They set the creative and technological precedents for almost everything in the world of gaming.
From the creation of the video-game mascot to the development of the platforming game whose standards every developer still aspires to, Nintendo consistently sets gaming trends.
This time, Nintendo has taken o [...]
Bowling for Soup throws gutterball
To be honest, when I think of Bowling for Soup, I think of “Girl All the Bad Guys Want.” That, or “Phineas and Ferb.” It’s not exactly a stunning pedigree. I had long since filed them away with Simple Plan and Good Charlotte in “bands that have long ceased to be relevant.”
Evidently, they’re not done yet. “Fishin’ for Woos” comes out April 26 [...]
Music’s future in jeopardy
When I was 13 years old, like most other girls – I think – I found it necessary from time to time to grab a hairbrush and sing loudly to myself in the mirror, often alarming anyone within a 50-foot radius. However, if those monstrous pajama concerts had ever gotten recorded and seen by millions, I probably would have died. Upon watching Rebec [...]
Ads as an art
Admit it – some advertisements ain’t that bad. Even though you whine about the commercial breaks when you’re watching TV, at some point you’ve gone and watched your favorites on YouTube. And when you’re driving, there’s always that billboard that you can’t help but look at when your eyes should be on the road. As for Internet advertisement, w [...]

SGA allocations
chairperson
When I was little, my mom told me that I shouldn’t judge people until I’ve put myself in their position and considered why they were acting the way that they were. This is an excellent time for the University Leader and the Student Government Association to take a moment and consider the words of a [...]
Involvement up on campus
As the hullaballoo of what I now refer to as the Great Allocations Debate of 2011 seemingly winds to a close, it’s important to reflect on the issue of student involvement at Fort Hays State University.
Being from Hays, I’m accustomed to lackluster pep rallies and modestly populated student organizations in high school. But since becoming inv [...]
