Thanks to Pam Graham, the costume designer, the moods of the songs were radiantly displayed for all to see in both the set's briliant, one-color backdrop and the dancers' simple yet delightfully outspoken ensembles. At one upbeat moment, everything onstage glowed a brilliant orange-red. Less than a minute later, the dancers slowly swan through...

The choreography was remarkable in its diversity, creativity and energetic execution by the Energizer Bunny-like cast...
...handle any racial issues. With recent incidents involving racially insulting graffitti in Mather House last year and a Confederate flag hung outside of Kirkland House a few years ago, the administration should realize that sensitivity to minorities is an important issue in houses. As randomization splits up strong, vibrant minority communities, it is incumbent upon the University to foster tolerance in the brave new world it has constructed...
