  • Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them

    I can’t remember my first encounter with J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World. Somehow, Harry Potter has always been a part of my life.

I felt an instant connection to the Ravenclaw house and knew I belonged there even before I was sorted into it. Watching the midnight premiere of Harry Potter a...

  • Moana is a fine entry to the legendary Disney canon

    Who are you? That is the central question that Disney’s new animated film, Moana, asks. It’s very easy to get swept away by Disney’s new animated film Moana.

  • Denzel Curry

    I've never loved rap music. Hip Hop and Rap was never really my thing in high school. But when Carol City, Florida-based rapper Denzel Curry brought the house down at the Cohon Center's Studio Theater Saturday, Oct. 15 to a sweaty, capped room of 200 students, I completely changed my mind. Throughout the night, Denzel Curry brought the crowd on a wave of non-stop energy, lighting up the crowd with...
