Friday Fail

It's been a while, but here's another one!

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!

Fight the Fat!

RA's Smady & Panchito hosted a program to show students how to eat healthier at school. A group of students went to Wilsbach and learned ways to eat healthier thanks to the campus dietician!

Viral Video Monday

It's monday and time for a new viral video. This week it's one of the many "Shreds" videos out there. The "Shreds" videos feature famous musicians and their playing is overdubbed. Artists that have fallen victim to the "Shreds" series include Nickleback, Santana, Eddie Van Halen, and Creed (my personal favorite). Here's "Eric Clapton Shreds"

Fail Friday!

Hey everybody! It's Friday, the weekend is here and you can't wait to relax. Well, here's a little something to get things started with a laugh!

Viral Video Monday

Hello everybody! Welcome to the first entry in Viral Video Monday! Each week I will be upload one of the internet's many famous or upcoming viral videos! I figured I'd start of with a classic.

The One Show to Rock Them All

Hello Everybody! Saturday was a great day in Littell. In fact it was a great day for anyone who likes music. They were first treated to a wonderful program hosted by RA Amy & RA Eric. Then Lupe Fiasco performed at the Dewar Arena in Alumni Field House. But I want to take a moment to talk about the concert that was held here in Littell.

RA Amy & RA Eric held a program in the Pit Lounge on Saturday afternoon. The program was "Rock To Cure", a rock concert to raise awareness of cancer and of the on-campus club dedicated to fighting cancer with music, Rock to Cure. The talent was provided by a several generations of Littell Residents.


Eternity's End started and ended the event. They rocked the house with covers of Linkin Park and Alice in Chains, and also rocked out to some original material. Members of the group all lived in Littell two years ago in 2007-2008.


Dan Devita on vocals/guitar


Brandon Snell on vocals/drums


Andrew Grau on bass


Keith Kaufman on guitar/vocals


Dom D'Imperio, who lived in Littell from 2007-2008, played several original songs on piano


The generation gap was bridged thanks to Ryan Quinn A.K.A. Quinn Eastwood. Ryan played covers of Jeff Buckley, Led Zeppelin, and more!

After Eternity's End was done, the floor was open for jamming. Three current residents got up and jammed!


Mac Trainor


Jason Lopez


Travis Ryan


It was a great show. Littell has some budding talent waiting to be released. Look out for these guys!
