Common
Hour
(12:30 p.m.)
Dora Mills, MD, MPH, '89, Director, Maine Bureau of Health,
will be delivering this week's Friday address about "Health
Issues at the Dawn of the 21st Century." She would definitely
know all about that, what with all the letters and stuff that
follow her name.
Morrell Lounge, Smith Union.
|
Exhibit
Opening
(5 - 8 p.m.)
The Casco Bay Weekly has a cool picture of a guy with a building
on his head. Trust me, it looks really cool. Wait, What am
I saying! Go and see it for yourself. For info (like better
directions than the sketchy adress I give) call 252-7258.
Radiant Light Gallery, Portland.

Campus
Wide
(10:00 p.m.)
It seems like all the social houses are getting off of social
probation these days. Come help Helmreich celebrate with a
party. They promise their floor won't collapse.
Helmreich House.
|
Ergfest
(4:00 p.m.)
If you are bored on Friday afternoon, boy do I have something
for you. Tyler is erging in the squash courts for a while,
and being the gregarious, outgoing person he is, he wants
some company. So please go and hang out with him.
Squash Courts, Smith Union.

Performance
(7:30 p.m.)
The Steve Grover Trio will be performing jazz music this weekend.
The last jazz concert they had here was really good, so I
expect big things from Steve Grover and his mates. So should
you.
Gibson Hall, Room 101.
|
Big
Party (9:00 p.m.)
Ok, I suppose everyone saw the Duck/Gorilla fight in Thorne
last night. No, it wasn't real. It was merely designed to
create publicity for Up 'Til Dawn, a big charity event whose
proceeds will be donated to St. Jude's Children's Hospital.
Come out and support a good cause.
Morrell Lounge, Smith Union.

Chicago
(3:00 p.m. & 8:00 p.m.)
No, the Windy City isn't coming to Portland, but the musical
is. If you really like to watch murderesses on stage, go see
this show. Tickets are $35-$50. To get some, call 842-0800.
Merill Auditorium, Portland.

Information
Session
(7:00 p.m.)
If you are interested in ICF consulting, then chances are
that you already know about this. If you aren't, then chances
are that you don't care anyway. But for those of you who have
never heard of ICF consulting, this is for you.
CPC, Moulton Union.

Dance
USM! (5:00 p.m.)
If you are like me, and you want to see people from another
school showcasing really cool dance movies, then you will
be at USM this Sunday. Tickets are $5 for students To get
more info, call 780-5151.
Russell Hall, USM-Gorham Campus.
|
Shuttle
(1 p.m. - 3 p.m.)
I know that most people's idea of a good time isn't taking
a shuttle, but this one goes to the Coastal Studies Center.
I have never been, but I hear the CSC (as the more science-oriented
types call it) is beautiful these days. Plus, it gets you
back to campus by 4:30, just in time to stop by the chapel
for Mass.
Departs from Smith Union.

Birthday
(all day)
Leah McConaughey is 22 today! She likes to do things with
bugs, so if you want to make her happy, give her that beetle
you have been saving for a rainy day. Or am I the only one
who does that?
Wherever Leah is.
|
Catholic
Mass
(4:30 p.m.)
I know you are all kicking yourselves for not going to Mass
last weekend, since you had a chance to see a real live monk.
Well, if you go this weekend, he might show up again. It's
worth a shot.
Bowdoin Chapel.

Noted
Choreographer Deborah Ray will be kicking off her week as
choreographer-in-residence (I didn't even know we had one
of those) with a lecture titled "Woof woof woof woof woof
/ woof Woof woof woof." I think the title tells you all you
need to know.
Wish Theater, Memorial Hall.
|
Meeting
(7:30 p.m.)
Did anyone go to the Campus Activities Board meeting last
week? Ok, neither did I, but I still want to see if they really
do give out candy. I don't really care who comes to campus
to entertain me, just so long as I have some candy to eat.
Main Lounge, Moulton Union.
|
Movie
(6:30 p.m.)
Those German people are really into movies! It seems like
every week there are 10 or 12 movies shown in German. Ok,
maybe not that many, but still a lot. This one is called "The
Captain of Kopenick." Like all German movies, it promises
to entertain.
Smith Auditorium, Sills Hall.
|
Luncheon
(12:00 p.m.)
I have always thought that the word 'luncheon' sounds
much more formal and dignified than just the word 'lunch.'
Who the coordinators are and why they need to sound so dignified
I have no idea.
Room 1, Thorne Dining Hall.

Student
Forum
(7:30 p.m.)
The Student Government is sponsoring a forum on the House
System. There will be a discussion of several aspects of the
house system, such as what's working, what needs improvement,
and any new ideas that anyone might have.
Lancaster Lounge, Moulton Union.
|
Seminar
(3:30 p.m.)
The Religion Department is sponsoring this seminar on Jung.
I can't really say what they will talk about, but I am certain
that they will say Jung a lot, which automatically makes it
a guaranteed fun time.
Beam Classroom, VAC.
|
More
Movies! (6:00 p.m.)
These movies aren't German, but you can't always get what
you want. You'll just have to settle for Sergeant York, Queen
Christina, and Morocco. I don't know if there is a unifying
theme to those movies. I guess you'll just have to go and
find out.
Smith Auditorium, Sills Hall.
|
Lecture
(4:00 p.m.)
Interestingly, I saw nothing about this event anywhere at
Bowdoin; I only found out about it through extensive perusal
of the MaineToday.com calendar. In any case, Dr. Walter Christie
will delivering a lecture titled "The Romantic Impulse, the
Frankenstein Syndrome and the Future of Psychiatry."
VAC.

Yoga
(12:10 p.m.)
I read in a book once about how a guy acquired X-ray vision
by studying with a yogi. I can only assume that yoga the activity
and yoga the title are related. It would just be weird otherwise.
Lancaster Lounge, Moulton Union.
|
Blood
Drive (3:00 p.m.)
Giving blood isn't really that pleasant, so what I like to
do when giving blood is pretend I am in the Middle Ages, and
they are bleeding me because I am too hot-headed. That always
makes the time pass easier.
Sargent Gymnasium.
|
Meeting
(6:15 p.m.)
The College Republicans are meeting, probably to craft schemes
to stop the worker's revolution, which must proceed at all
costs. And let me just say that just as there should be no
private property, there should be no private dining rooms.
N. Private Dining Room, Moulton Union.
|
Film
Showing (7:00 p.m.)
It isn't exactly clear what movie is being shown, or even
what a possible theme of the movie is. So, if you are the
risk-taking sort, this is for you.
Beam Classroom, VAC.

Lecture
(7:00 p.m.)
Rick Wilcox will talk about a Himalayan expedition, and his
lecture is titled "High in the Cold, Thin Air of Cho Oyu."
Brrrrrr. Sounds chilly. For more info call 725-3346.
Kresge Auditorium, VAC.
|
Talk
(7:30 p.m.)
Ok, I know, a talk is the same thing as a lecture, but I am
trying to diversify. Anyway, this one is about ballet, and
will be given by Laura Young, principal of the Boston Ballet
School. For info call 725-3375.
Smith Auditorium, Sills Hall.
|
Reception
& Dinner
(5:30 p.m.)
The Chamber of Commerce is having a reception, and then a
dinner. Unless you have a reservation, you can't get in, but
you can always stand outside and look at all the rich capitalists
and dream of a more equal society.
1st Floor, Moulton Union.
|
Reading
Hour
(11:00 a.m.)
The Congress Square Starbucks in Portland is hosting a pre-school
reading hour. So if you want to take a break from your work
and get back to your childhood roots, go listen to children's
literature.
