KEEP HOPE ALIVEFebruary 7, 2011
ONCE IN A LIFE TIME: JESSE JACKSONSam Koester, Snow
Have you ever been to an
important speech; one that
is historically important to
the country, society, and
local community. The speech
by Rev. Jesse Jackson,
Monday February, 7, 2011 was
one of those speeches.
The members of Snow Hall
decided a week in advance
that we would all meet up
and go as a group to witness
this memorable speech and
speaker. I personally
enjoyed the speech and felt
it was interesting how Rev.
Jackson made sure the crowd
was still engaged in the
topic. Even though our group
was only roughly 30 people,
I am sure I can say that it
was still a great hall
bonding event to go to.

Problems with
Housing
Khang Nguyen
! Housing really screwed
up for some people
attempting to renew/apply
for on campus housing for
the past few weeks. Most
weren’t affected by this so
called “computer glitch” but
for those who weren’t
allowed to proceed past the
“housing information” page.
An annoying blood red “Your
Reservation Has Been
Cancelled” is slapped across
the bottom of the page as if
it was there strictly to
tease you. To say the least,
it was just frustrating. The
victims had to wait until
8am to apply for housing in
person. This threw off
friends attempting to room
together and was just
stressful in general. This
is one of the basic things
that the housing department
does so a revamping and
maybe a systems progr
check is in order.

Black Sheep: A
Cautionary Tale
Jacob Marsh, McCoy
Recently, a few members of
McCoy checked out the hall
projector and offered in our
lounge a showing of the Australian
horror film Black She ep . Most who
watched the movie found it
humorous or absurd at best.
However, the true nature of the
film is much more serious than the
casual viewer might expect.
! The subject of the movie is
a genetic engineering project gone
wrong. Scientists, in trying togenetically modify sheep for more
wool production, create a bizarre
breed of sheep that lusts for
blood. Once bitten by this
monstrosity, any sheep will act
the same way and any human will
transform into a sheep themselves.
While this may seem outlandish to
some, this is a real threat, and
steps must be taken to keep this
terror from overtaking us all.
!Think of the food you eat on
a day-to-day basis. Those
mozzarella sticks with marinara
sauce? They contain tomatoes that
were modified to include salmon
genes. Pretty soon these tomato
plants could be attacking other
tomatoes just like the sheep in
Black Sheep , and if we eat them we
could end up the same way. In
fact, we could end up sheep-tomato
hybrid killers, or “sheepmato
zombies”. This is but one example
of how genetic engineering could
lead to bastardizations
of nature that kill us
all.
! There is only onechoice: prepare for the
sheep-tomato
apocalypse. In Black
Sheep , as many McCoy
members can attest to,
they won with guns and
an antidote. Neither
guns nor nerf guns
(nor, for that matter,
any weapons) are legal
in reshalls, so
therefore we have to
go another route. I would recommend that
every person stock up
on toothpicks, since
those are effective
against tomatoes and
kind of like small
stakes, which kill
vampires. I would
also say pick up as
much saran wrap as
possible, because it
could be effective to contain
sheepmato zombies in some areas of
the building. When worst comes to
worst, we would need to resort to
just confusing the enemy.
Paint yourself green and throw
forks at them.
