The Cord Weekly news------ Page 3 ...Thursday, September 14, 1989 Laurier shines in Shinerama for CF fight NORMAN E. WOOD Cord Weekly The next time you see WLUSU President AI Strathdee he may have his hair dyed an alarming purple and white. It's all part of the Shinerama bet Laurier and the University of Waterloo made with the University of Western Ontario. The idea was to see which side could raise $89,000 through Shinerama, part of the "89 in '89" theme. The student government executives of the losing side will dye their hair in the colours of the winning school or schools. If Western wins, Strathdee and the all of WLUSU's Vice-Presidents will have to dye their hair purple and white. Of the three schools involved, only Wilfrid Laurier University seems to have reached its goal. However, the exact results of Shinerama,last Saturday's climax to Frosh Week, are unknown. Laurier raised an estimated $37,000. That is an impressive $3,000 over the goal of $34,000. President Strathdee said that he was "really proud of our Frosh... they did great." When asked about Uni­ versity of Waterloo's performance he said only that he was "dis­ appointed. Really disappointed." Strathdee had no comment about the idea of dyeing his hair. University of Waterloo was to raise $55,000 which, combined with Laurier's total, would make the overall goal of $89,000. When asked for an estimate, U of W's Shinerarna Chairperson skirted the is­ sue, claiming that a lot of money is unaccounted for so far. On the Ob, those crazy Shiners!

(Robert Saunders Photo) goal. University of Waterloo's Federation of Students said that much of the money for Shinerarna is not made through the traditional shining of cars and shoes. The Peds made $2,000 during the summer on spe­ cial events, and are donating some of the proceeds from their services Cheerleaders sent home such as Fed Hall and the Bombshelter.

    SEIL LIEN ANNOUNCE DEBUT RECORD ‘SHATTER’ + VIDEO FOR ‘IT’S LOVE THAT BROUGHT YOU HERE’ Album release: April 17th 2020 Label: CarbFace Records Pre-order from: https://seillien.bandcamp.com/album/shatter Website // Twitter // Facebook // Instagram // Spotify "Sublime debut" Planet Rock “Someone once described me as Nine Inch Nails meets Kate Bush, which I thought was funny. But I see what they mean, there’s an ethereal vulnerability which contrasts to the producers industrial edge.” Says Marie- Claire of Glaswegian atmospheric rock act SEIL LIEN. Due release their debut album ‘Shatter’ on April 17th 2020, SEIL LIEN is one of the most unique artists to come out of Scotland, and the brain child of an uncompromising underground experimentalist. A preview of the record can be heard on the new single ‘It’s Love That Brought You Here’ released today, with an accompanying video available to view on YouTube HERE. WATCH: ‘It’s Love That Brought You Here’ via YouTube With a solid fanbase built up over years of hard graft playing live, SEIL LIEN’s debut album ‘Shatter’ has been a long-awaited follow up to the aptly named ‘A Little While More EP’ released in 2018. Hitting the ground running, SEIL LIEN were thrust into the public eye when in 2018, through the publishing arm of Ninja Tune, the song ‘A Little While More’ was synced in a series of Boots ‘Inspirational Women’ campaign advertisements. Lead member Marie-Claire described the experience as “amazing, unexpected and life affirming!” and the catalyst to get the debut album finished. The final product is eight songs of uncompromising artistry a total of 3 years in the making, and a sound that could be described as the distillation of prolonged periods of improvisation and experimentation.

  • Rhetorically Speaking
    Rhetorically Speaking In his acceptance speech for the German Booksellers‘ Peace Prize, awarded a few weeks before he was elected President of Czechoslovakia, Vaclav Havel talked about the power of language, warning that ―the power of words is neither unambiguous nor clear cut…Words that electrify society with their freedom and truthfulness are matched by words that mesmerize, deceive, inflame, madden, beguile….‖ He asked, ―What is the true vocation of the intellectual? …to listen careful to words—to the words of the powerful—to be watchful of them…to proclaim their implications.‖ Although primarily addressing the need to be alert to the rhetoric of those in positions of power, Havel‘s word also point to the task before teachers and students of English. What the AP English Language and Composition Examination asks for students to evaluate words—words they are to read carefully, interpret, and then ―proclaim their implications.‖ Preparing for this examination is preparing to be continually attuned to what words say and how they say it, and to be able to respond to them with an informed, critical intelligence. AP English Language and Composition Free Response Scoring Guide with Multiple-Choice Section, 1996 Whatever you say. Or whatever you write. Or whatever you do to get your point across. That is rhetoric. And, as the 15-or-so freshmen in English Professor Richard Enos‘ Freshmen Seminar discover, that‘s the art between thought and expression. Was Bill Clinton‘s A Man From Hope a folksy documentary or propaganda pushing small-town values just in time for the 1990 election? And how on earth did Orson Welles‘ 1939 radio adaptation of War of the Worlds cause people to jump from buildings and the government to prohibit similar broadcasts? By semester‘s end, Enos‘ students will be disarming such arguments like a S.W.A.T.
