C ampus CSA starts semester strong Dana Miller Editor Carroll Student Activities (CSA) began the semester with two very loud bangs, welcoming both a recognizable comedy duo and a rising Indie band to campus. “The events were successful,” said junior Nick Jenkins, a computer science major from Bellevue, Wash The first CSA production of the year was the comedy act known as “Frangela,” two friends named Eleanor Francis Callier and Angela V. Shelton. Nearly three hundred Carroll students crowded into the Upper Cube to watch the duo, recognizable for their work in television shows such as Hannah Montana, VH1 ’s Best Week Ever, and The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, as well as films such as Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and He’s Just Not That Into You. “Frangela was a great hit with the students,“ said Jenkins. \It brought a lot of people, and there was a fresh excitement that was palpable in the air.” A short week later, a rising Indie band known as Ecclectic Approach stopped by campus for a performance. Mixing original songs with well-known covers and on-the-spot lyrical creations, the band serenaded the one hundred students crowding about the stage and listening from the sidelines. A small but excited crowd jumped to the music and gave all the enthusiasm one would expect for a high-profile entertainer. “Ecclectic Approach put on a show fit for larger crowd,” said junior Rayme McKelvey, a psychology major from Spokane. “They said it was in their top five college performances ever.” There are more promising events on the horizon for Carroll Student Activities. The group has welcomed many new members to its ranks, including new director Joslyn Carney. “I’m so excited just to work with students from all classes.\ said Camey. who is also the new resident director in St. Charles Hall. “It’s been amazing to see each of them take on leadership roles to bring artists to Carroll. \ With a full schedule - and a full staff - CSA is going to work to provide quality entertainment for Carroll 's students this semester. Students enjoy the sound of eclectic approach PHOTO BY CAT KING Carroll tradition both fun and dangerous Nick Carroll Staff Writer The tradition continues as Guad Hill was covered in black tarps for the annual slip n ’ slide on Friday, August 31. which is one of the few times students actually enjoy walking up Guad Hill. This year saw yet another good turn out as students formed a massive line to get a crack at the slide, as well as clustered on the hill eating burgers, chips, watermelon, and other snacks off of bright yellow Car- roll College frisbees. Despite the uncom mon injuries the atmosphere was still quite enthusiastic, and people continued to bombard the slide as the tarps deterio rated from abuse. One of the victims of the chaos at the end of the slide was freshman and anthrozoology major Jena Smith, aka “the girl who broke her arm”. After a brutal collision near the end of the slide Smith, being a Helena native, drove herself to the hospital. After a stay in the waiting room and x-rays the doctors told her she had a cracked wrist, rather than broken her arm as thought by most witnesses. People quickly recognized her as the black soft cast stuck out like a sore thumb, even though it Smith took it off well before the doctor told her to. Rather than being annoyed by people constantly questioning her about the cast. Smith found most people’s ecstatic reac tions quite funny. Lots of people were ex tremely impressed that she drove herself to the hospital, or by how nonchalant she was about the injury even immediately af ter it happened. Regardless of the mishap, Smith is anxious for next year’s slide and looks forward to showing the freshmen how it is done in the future. The incident didn’t seem to faze the crowd in the least, as groups attacked the slide at once attempting various stunts regardless of the collisions at the bottom. Even those whom weren’t brave enough, or simply didn’t wish to go down the slide were seen with smiles on their faces. With free food, live music, sunshine, and good company the slip n’ slide will remain a well attended and loved event here at Carroll College.
