Great show that no one saw
Alright. Tonight I saw one of the tightest bands I've ever heard. It was the Alex Torres & The Latin Kings, a Latin jazz band. They were awesome! Great horn section, spot on harmonies and great energy. It's a shame that there weren't that many people there. It was right next to Littell and free.
Keep an eye out for more free concerts on campus. They get really good groups to play!

Not quite viral but cool none the less
In 7 days a video game is coming out. I have been watching this game since it was announced at E3 09. This game is DJ Hero. Now you may be saying "Another 'Hero' game? I gave up after Guitar Hero World Tour." Just take a look at this game. It's a whole new style of gaming. Look for it next week on the 27th.

Saturday Night Fever
I got a fever...and the only perscription...is Golding Hall's Saturday Night Fever! "Heroes Against Bad Choices" is being held at Golding hall from 10pm-1am this Saturday. Dress up as your favorite hero or villian and enjoy a fun Saturday Night!
Thanks for support!
Thank you to everyone from littell who protested against Jim Deferio's protesting on Tuesday. The support was appreciated, without a doubt. Here's some pictures that were taken by a member of the local media.

Foliage
Have you noticed anything different? Anything different outside Littell? Take a look on the hill facing Littell. You can see 3 new trees. The RA staff had the pleasure to plant one of those trees. It's the tree towards the sidewalk. We woke up at the crack of 7 and planted that beauty!
Show Your Support
This Tuesday, a man named Jim Deferio is coming to campus. Jim Deferio is no stranger to Oneonta. Ask any upperclassman and I'm sure they can tell you what happened. But to save you the effort of finding an upperclassman I'll tell you what happened.
Jim Deferio came to Oneonta and began an evangelical protests against the GLBT community. So what happened? The entire campus shared a moment of unity and protested against his hateful messages.
So when Jim Deferio comes back this Tuesday, show your support for the GLBT community and the entire OSC Campus!
