Today is the day for the 214 students

This year, more Frog Camp facilitator applications were

Landmark
ruling poisons politics
Feb.
12 , 2004
The
recent ruling of the Massachusetts Supreme Court in favor
of gay marriages has sparked controversy across the nation.
In a 4-3 decision the court decided to completely redefine
marriage, without the consent of Massachusetts’s
voters or the state legislature. The prevailing view of
marriage through most of history was cast aside and marriage
redefined as either a heterosexual or homosexual couple. |

Sleepy
Jackson
New
Release:
Lovers
Feb.
6, 2004
Sleepy who? This is exactly what I said
when I was given the copy of Sleepy Jackson’s new
CD entitled “Lovers.” But soon after I listened
to the CD I found the native Australian band was actually
something I really enjoyed. |

Release:
6th Street: Paved In Gratitude
Feb.
6, 2004
The
Adam Hood release, “6th Street,” is a surprisingly
palatable blend of pseudo-poppy refrains and folk guitar,
well mixed into an arrangement one would expect from central
Texas. |
