The MUW Department of Theater’s production of “The Good Doctor” kept the audience laughing last week.
The play was performed from Nov. 7-9, and was directed by Lee Crouse, a visiting assistant professor in the theater department. Although it was written by an American author, it features the work of a Russian writer.

After “The Avengers” swept audiences away, Marvel Studios has been hard pressed to deliver films that can live up to rising expectations. Thor’s latest adventure does not disappoint.
The original cast returns, with the exception of Joshua Dallas in the role of Fandral. Dallas was replaced by Zachary Levi (“Chuck”). Hemsworth, Hiddleston, and Anthony Hopkins are in top form, with the Shakespearean undertones in full swing. The dynamic between Thor, Loki, and Odin is as compelling as ever, and the fallout from the events of “The Avengers” weighs heavily on them all.

Jasmine Edget believes she has found, “the one.” The person she says is her better half. Someone she can depend on, trust and love for a lifetime. Now she thinks she knows for certain, because she and her partner, Shauntiqua Harris, have been in a committed relationship for almost a year and a half. They have become best friends. In the process of learning new things about each other, they have also learned things about themselves.

Brittany Twilley knows what it means to have a heavy course load. As a junior studio art major with an emphasis in painting and drawing at Mississippi University for Women, she is well aware of the importance of college students finding balance. She has given up the luxury of going to social events, joining social clubs and sororities and even participating in more than 70 organizations on campus so that she could take the required night classes and lessen her stress.

The Blacklist Alumnae Association held its first-ever Rattle ‘Dem Bones Fun Run’ and ‘Walk for Be The Match’ on Oct. 29, on Mississippi University for Women’s campus.
This event allowed the participants to dress up in their own Halloween costumes, and prizes were awarded by age groups. Prizes for the event were donated by local businesses around Columbus such as gift cards to Sweet Peppers, The Grill, Skatezone and many more.

One of my favorite things about MUW is the fact that traditions are abound. Whether it’s a social club’s pastime or the Magnolia Chain ceremony, most everyone participates in some kind of long-standing custom on campus. Not only do these traditions include areas of participation, but they also incorporate legends that have been passed down since the W opened.

Living in the Deep South is never something that causes me embarrassment. Whether living abroad in Brussels, Belgium for a summer, riding a train through Washington, D.C, walking down the streets of New York City or drinking lemonade on the Amalfi Coast, I’ve never tried to deny my heritage, not even my slow, syrupy sweet Southern drawl. Though I must admit, being asked to say certain words a million times does become annoying.
