What happens if you are an engineering, exercise biology, or managerial economics major and you find yourself falling in love with the performance world? Do you have to choose between the two?

Andy is so fickle, Madeline is such a big slut and you’re so curious. Just who are Andy and Madeline? It doesn’t matter, but you probably want to know anyways. It seems that discussions like this drive our society – talk about other people, gossip. People love hearing about other people. Take a look at the landscape of television; it’s littered with reality shows. Hell, look at Facebook! ‘Nuff said.

This time next week, the woman who brought us Favorite Things, the Book Club and Tom Cruise jumping on a couch will have officially closed the curtain on the most iconic daytime talk show of the last 25 years.

On Monday I found myself jamming to “Pomp and Circumstance” on repeat as I eagerly anticipated the arrival of my older sister in a queue of gown-wearing, accomplished undergraduates.

In January, my favorite news anchor, Brian Williams, reported that “Federal Regulators (the FCC) approved the purchase by Comcast of a majority stake in NBC Universal from General Electric. This merger will create a $30 billion media company with cable, broadcast, internet, motion picture and theme park components.” Now I’ve never been savvy in the business world, so I didn’t particularly care who Comcast chose to buy or sell, just as long as I could continue paying them $40.95 a month to watch all my TV on Hulu instead.

Listening to singer-songwriter Justin Nozuka’s sophomore effort, You I Wind Land & Sea, is every romantic’s delight. The 12-track album is full of unexpected maturity.

Darren Criss’s version of “Teenage Dream” was arguably as good as, or even better, than Katy Perry’s original song. Another notable song was Criss’s version of pop song “Bills, Bills Bills,” which is extremely catchy and sure to be stuck in your head once you hear it.
