Read More65 years and counting: MC hosts spring formal
For years, spring fling has been an annual Maryville College tradition. Each year, students have the opportunity to dance the night away with friends. “Behind the Masque” was the theme of the 2014 dance, and as one may gather from the title, masks were encouraged. The affair was held in the Market Square area at the Square Room at the back of Café 4. As students entered, they were greeted by a blur of...

Read MoreAnonymous social media accounts affect MC students
In a college of around 1000 students, it is natural that special rules and regulations are created to better proctor a students usage of campus technology, specifically social media. For example, the Maryville College GMail database is monitored in effort to better protect students and staff. As social media is a strongly developing platform, the college has implemented tactics to keep students safe and...

Read MoreMC Jazz Band says hello to new director, goodbye to seniors in spring concert
The Maryville College Jazz Band performed on the Harold and Jean Lambert Recital Hall stage April 22 at 7 p.m. Senior and drummer Chris Hickman quietly, yet audibly, counted off the group and began playing a methodic, syncopated cymbal stroke on brushes and a rim-click underneath the smooth melody of Quincy Jones’s arrangement of Benny Golson’s “Killer Joe.” Next was McCoy Tyner’s “Contemplation”, a piece...

Read MoreShoeless and Austrian: Thoughts after a year abroad
After eight months, change is what I tell people when they ask me how long I have been in Linz, Austria. Like every student abroad, and at home, will say there are moments when it’s hard, stressful and you feel like no one cares. There are weekends where you do the Netflix binge and eat as close to American as you possibly can, and try to dig in and find the motivation to keep going with your schoolwork....

For this issue, my final issue, I decided to do something slightly different. Graduation is quickly approaching, and my time on these hallowed grounds is quickly coming to a close. Many of us will finally be receiving our diplomas before going away to grad school, starting the job search and entering the adult world. Our lives are about to change completely, just as they did four years ago when we made...

Read MoreA time to unite: 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil
Nearly four years ago, I was sitting at a snack bar like Norm Peterson of the 1980’s hit variety show “Cheers.” I was at a water park in Orange Beach, Ala., and, instead of beer, I was drinking sweet tea. I was 17 and there for a church camp which was inconveniently planned during the week of the World Cup Final. I spent the better half of the afternoon watching Spain face the Netherlands as both...

Read MoreReflections from a Senior of the Year
In the three years I have spent at Maryville College, I have become a better mother to my teenage children. I have had to interact with students who were not far off in age from my own children. I began to understand their perspective and realize that, while their path may not be as difficult as my own, the path they are on is the toughest time they have had to deal with in their lives to this point. The...

Read MoreBucket list for adventurous college living
I found it necessary to make a bucket list when I began college to make sure I did not lose sight of the things in life that keep me sane. I did not want to forget my dreams, goals or the little things that make life amazing and worth it. Considering that attending Maryville College was on my bucket list, I think I am doing pretty well. Personally, my bucket list is possibly quirkier than most, but I am...
