Artsy Ivy

I always pictured myself as a Yalie. Sure, I could see that Princeton had it over New Haven and tigers were fiercer than bulldogs ? but I wasn't a jock.I knew all about the administration's "Green Hair Initiative." But in my mind, the strategic push to get more actors, dancers and musicians to campus was evidence that such people were few and far between in the Orange Bubble.

'Heart!!!' aptly named

"Heart!!!" earns its exclamation points. Ambitious and deliciously messy, this senior thesis production written and directed by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins '06 spends two hours examining that pulsating, fist-sized muscle in your chest and comes to some interesting conclusions.The play is about an African American boy with a heart problem and his life with his family of amputees.
