Faculty paint the McGauvran Gallery red for opening exhibit

Jackson Pollock, Jesse Kahn, Marcel Duchamp, Karen Roehr, Andy Warhol, and Jehanne-Marie Gavarini all have one thing in common. They are all artists; some famous to the world, some famous in the halls of the art department here at UMass Lowell, some famous to both.

Six Year Aniversary of 9/11

Sept. 11 is a day to look back and remember those victims who were lost to the U.S. suicide terrorist attacks six years ago. That morning, 19 Islamic extremist hijackers unexpectedly crashed two planes into the World Trade Center in New York City and one into the Pentagon in Arlington County, VA. The World Trade Center collapsed, with thousands dieing as a result.

Catch the 3:10 to Yuma

There has always been a special place in my heart for the western. Gun slingers always prove to be some of the greatest characters. They offer excitement but always turn out to demonstrate philosophies about humanity. I was of course ecstatic over the release of 3:10 to Yuma.

‘Hawks Come out Flat

Streaks are made to be broken. And as the UMass Lowell volleyball team discovered, which side of the streak you are on makes all the difference.

Plagued by unforced errors and mental miscues, the River Hawks dropped a tough 3-2 game to Southern New Hampshire University; a team that they had defeated 27 straight times going back to the 1986 season.

Printing payments pose a plethora of problems

Say hello to the newest hole in the college student’s pocket after tuition, fees, and books: printing. Lydon and O’Leary libraries are now charging 10 cents per page that is printed, a fee that has been implemented after research showed that many area state universities also charge for printing services.

Find the blue in you

If you are a student at UMass Lowell with even the slightest interest in having a good time with a little bit of school spirit thrown in, boy are you in for a treat this year. The athletic department here at UMass Lowell is serving up some great ideas and new events for the students of UML.

Carrots are good for your eyes

This year has had quite a few action films. We got to see a fourth Die Hard, The Bourne Ultimatum, and even a western (3:10 to Yuma). However, these movies weren’t pure action. That’s where Shoot ‘Em Up comes in. Senseless violence and non-stop ridiculous action here we come.

Emo is short for emotional

Last Friday, UMass Lowell students gathered in the Campus Rec Center (CRC) on East Campus to watch four hilarious stand-up comedians take the stage as part of the College Humor Live Tour. The event was hosted by CAPA and was only a five-dollar charge. Before sitting down, students were patted down by a member of CAPA to enforce the “No weapons/cameras” rule.
