Reading Time: 2 minutes My name is Lindsey and I am a procrastinator.* Unfortunately, there is not a Procrastinators Anonymous group nearby that I can attend. Then again, I haven’t looked it up yet. I thought about starting one, but I didn’t get around to that either. I figured that people would always be coming to the meeting “next week” anyway.

Reading Time: 2 minutes The days of mainstream hand-drawn animation seem to be numbered. As the years progress, more and more studios are developing CGI-animated films and the tendrils of this technology are far reaching from animation into a variety of genres, from sci fi to action films.

Reading Time: < 1 minute I didn’t know Morrissey was in The Smiths until after I owned this album. Call me backward and weird — I would agree in this instance. Morrissey’s solo work somehow strikes me as more relevant than the work produced by his epic pairing with Marr. Although his voice is probably one of the most recognizable in all of music, his days with The Smiths varied deeply from his insanely successful career as a one-man show.

Reading Time: < 1 minute This semester, the Cinema Studies program is excited to be partnering up with the International Center to bring UVU students some of the best foreign films around. The series will begin on Sept. 10 with the classic Okamoto film “The Sword of Doom,” a tale about a sociopathic samurai and his descent into madness.

Reading Time: < 1 minute As August draws to a close and fall semester takes off, many students are transitioning from the hazy days of summer back into the fast-paced rhythm known as “real life.” However, one group of students’ summer break has been more work than play. The UVU Ballroom Dance Company has been eagerly preparing for one of the biggest competitions of the year.

Reading Time: < 1 minute You and I, we’re both college students, and as such, media elitism is a major part of our social discourse. We reconsider friendships with those who begin to show signs of admiration for the insipid rock ballads of Nickelback and we will turn down almost any date that involves watching Katherine Heigl in “27 Dresses.

Reading Time: 2 minutes This week’s word: Education

Reading Time: 2 minutes I had an interesting experience the other night – one which I hope will be repeated often. Some friends and I were discussing politics jovially and passionately (not to mention loudly) outside my house around 11 P.M. or so. All of a sudden, a couple from the neighboring apartment complex popped their heads out and […]

Reading Time: 2 minutes There’s a popular axiom that dictates (in a G-rated form, anyway), “Opinions are like [armpits]. Everyone has them, and they all stink.” While this is obviously not 100% true (some people have no armpits, while some armpits smell quite lovely), there lies an indisputable chunk of truth in that meme. Because this is the Opinion section, there is certainly a small sting whenever it is said/written/told to me by my editor. What’s a boy to do? First, it’s important to recognize that the statement is probably more untrue than it is true. Despite what I see on both MSNBC and Fox News, I think that most people, including the student body at UVU, have intelligent, reasonable, fact-based opinions. To prove myself right (something at which I am very, very good), here’s a handy list of things that the fine readers of the UVU Review can continue to do in their writings to us in order to continue my high esteem of them:

Reading Time: 2 minutes It’s back. We’re back, I mean. The annual migration of late teens and twenty-somethings from parents’ basements into overpriced, college-accessible housing has reached its peak. The D.I. is crowded on Wednesdays again, and the bookstore staff are cashing their fat, fat paychecks, with a lack of shame rivaled only by Disney and Lucifer himself. A […]
