This weekend, diSiac Dance Company brings “On the Edge” to Frist Film/Performance Theatre. “On the Edge” highlights all the choreographic intricacy and innovation we have come to expect from diSiac, and will be sure to please longtime fans and new audiences alike. The show features many fresh, original and nuanced performances, but the overall performance quality is inconsistent: certain pieces shine while others recycle choreographic and lighting tropes. Despite momentary missteps, “On the Edge” traverses exciting new terrain and emphasizes diSiac’s impressive range.

The Miss America Pageant will be returning to Atlantic City, N.J. after a seven-year run in Las Vegas, making McCollum's reign a particularly exciting one. "It's a great year to be Miss New Jersey," McCollum said.

This weekend, BAC dance brings its spring show, “Survival of the Illest,” to the stage. Featuring high-energy numbers and oozing sex appeal, “Survival of the Illest” is a fun, flirtatious showing from BAC. Unfortunately, many pieces in this show fail to push the envelope artistically, and an overuse of the theater’s lighting capabilities keeps “Survival of the Illest” from fully engaging audience members. While not a tour-de-force performance, “Survival” has several bright choreographic moments.

If you’re anything like me — and I assume you all are (Who doesn’t watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer reruns on LOGO nowadays, am I right?) — then you have multiple negative associations with McCosh 50. McCosh 50 seats you and 479 of your best friends in wooden contraptions that pass for desks but really hearken back to the days when undergraduates hung by their thumbs in professors’ underground prisons. These torture devices do their work slowly. The seats have a 0.11 percent gradient downward so that a student beginning his 50-minute economics lecture in a fully upright position will end dangling from the edge of his chair like Mufasa in his final moments. To counteract the design of the least-fun slide EVER, McCosh 50’s desktops maintain a 0.09 gradient upward, so that laptops, notebooks and peanut butter sandwiches alike glide toward your tummy while you free-fall at the rate of 0.001 inches per second.

As a self-proclaimed connoisseur of dorm-heating — the first of my kind, I believe — I have experienced highs in the 80s and lows in the 50s, all inside my climate-controlled dorm room! When people are asked to picture the finest higher education our world has to offer, not many channel images of undergraduates convulsing in their quilts, quietly sobbing icy tears. At Princeton, however, the point is not to impart knowledge in a comfortable setting. The point is to admit all of the students who wrote their overcoming-adversity essay on the cancellation of “Friends,” put them in furnished ice boxes/brick ovens and teach them about real hardship. If you’ve ever complained to Housing about your temperature concerns, watched a worker enter your room, tap on your heater a few times and then proclaim the problem solved, you’ve got all the proof you need. Princeton dorm heating is a test, and so far most everyone is failing.

If schoolwork has got you feeling more like the Grinch than Cindy Lou Who this Christmastime, hoof it to the Frist Film/Performance Theatre to watch Princeton University Ballet’s production of “NUTZ.” After only an hour-long performance, the classical selections from Tchaikovsky’s “The Nutcracker” were enough to send me on a search for sleigh bells and peppermint hot chocolate. But the real gems in “NUTZ” are the contemporary pieces, particularly Garth Johnson’s “Sleep” and Gray Holubar ’13’s “Break.”

This past week I somewhat half-heartedly attempted to embarrass myself in front of the Princeton community. I say “half-heartedly” because beneath this rock-solid, emotionless exterior, there lives a quivering little girl with a healthy fear of humiliation. I am no stranger to being made fun of; when I was in fifth grade, my friends and I rode imaginary horses on the playground. We named our horses, jumped them over invisible hurdles and cantered to our hearts’ content. Unsurprisingly, this earned us beat-downs by the kickball kids. Like, literally, that happened.
