NE Campus theater students show how crazy women can be in the female version of The Odd Couple.
The original version of the play, written by Neil Simon, was about two male roommates completely different from each other.

Simon later revised the piece in 1985 and called it The Female Odd Couple.

If anyone would ever call a movie “punk,” Pirate Radio would be it.
The movie is, to put it simply, about a group of guys and a lesbian who live on a boat and play whatever they want, mostly rock music, without being censored. Because the British government thinks people listening to this type of music have “low morals,” it decides to do anything possible to take the radio station off the air.

Golden Apples of the Sun, the newest album by Caroline Herring, has 12 songs that all basically sound alike.
She has a somewhat unique soft, almost country-like voice. But it’s not this album’s sound that makes it worth a listen, it’s the lyrics that are so relatable.
Dallas artist Bill Komodore spoke to South Campus students Nov. 12 about finding the great artists within them.
