NEWS: School of English has “failed its students utterly”
Tuesday, January 10th, 2012
The School of English has caused panic among students by stating that bibliographies should be included in the word-counts of essays. This guidance was given via email on January 6, just three days before a deadline. This information is not contained in the rubric of essay questions. One second year student said: “The school has failed its students utterly.”

FEATURES: 2011 in film
Monday, January 2nd, 2012
2011 can be considered a good year in film, if you take a view that makes a few glaring omissions. While Hollywood stumbles on with its incessant remakes, reboots, re-imaginings, sequels, prequels, threequels and adaptations vibrant and vital filmmaking continues to come from other avenues.

REVIEW: Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sunday, December 4th, 2011
The Red Hot Chilli Peppers scorched the O2 Arena with a fiery set-list that included a few tunes off their new album, I’m With You, as well as some old school favourites. On 4 November, Dublin was treated to a top-notch performance from Anthony Keidis, Flea, Chad Smith and new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, who were opened by up-and-coming Californian collective Fool’s Gold. As an opening act they delivered a strong performance of neo-African-rhythmic-pop-rock that left the crowd grooving and ready for seduction from Flea’s funkilicious bass.

FEATURES: I want my… I want my… I want my MTV…
Saturday, December 3rd, 2011
It has become hackneyed to point out that MTV (which stands for ‘Music Television’, in case you weren’t aware) no longer plays music videos. And it’s a justified cliché too, one that makes up the bulk of why MTV has apparently lost its relevancy, but sadly it appears the company’s greatest crime is the inability to live up to its legacy.

FEATURES: Bills, bills, bills
Saturday, December 3rd, 2011
It’s a sad moment when we realise how coddled we were growing up: not having to worry about oil or gas or paying for electricity. Yet, now when cash is coming from our own pockets, it’s time to wake up and stop wasting.
