Foster Gallery home to annual art show

By DJ Slater

Prior to the start of the fall semester, senior art lecturer Karen Horan and art professor Christos Theo were busy working on their own individual pieces of art. They had a good reason to, because they would be the featured artists in the Art Faculty Show, which opened Sept. 11 in the Foster Gallery of Haas Fine Arts.

Tastemaker: 10 years later

By Aaron Vehling

Sunday marked the 10th anniversary of the release of Nirvana's third and final album, "In Utero." A big question on the minds of those who tend to ponder big questions is whether frontman/songwriter/guitarist Kurt Cobain and his band would be as revered today if Cobain hadn't killed himself.

MUSIC REVIEW: Bizkit record impresses

Limp Bizkit: you either love them or you hate them.

When Wes Borland left the band nearly two years ago, it seemed as though the backbone of LB had disintegrated. In a foolish attempt to pull the band together, lead singer Fred Durst announced an open try-out for all the fans who play guitar in order to find a replacement.
