By Emily Marques Contributing Writer There is no hiding that Bryant and all of our students have an extreme growing interest in the business world and how to succeed in it. With business students just about everywhere on campus, it came as no surprise that when the Student Arts & Speaker Series (SASS) was contemplating which speaker to bring to campus next, a business tycoon was at the top of their list. On Monday, September 29th 2014, real estate mogul and shark investor on the hit NBC series Shark Tank, Barbara Corcoran, delivered an inspiring and success oriented speech at Bryant. Corcoran, a thriving multimillion dollar real estate entrepreneur, delivered insight on the business world and how success is obtainable if you have the right sense of determination. For Corcoran, success was not immediate and certainly not handed to her. She did not excel in the education department and began a career she did not thrive in or even enjoy. From having 20 different jobs before the age of 23, to creating a multimillion dollar company, Corcoran shows the epitome of what hard work can do. Through her speech at Bryant, Corcoran discussed a “rags to riches” story and how she created a career for herself. In 1973, Barbara borrowed 1,000 dollars from her students aspire to accomplish similar success to hers. keeping the aspect of fun and enjoyment in your business boyfriend and left her minuscule job as a waitress to open She emphasized the importance of failing and how one endeavors.

I remember standing on the pool deck and thinking how cold it was, but now as a spectator I realized just how swelteringly hot the pool really is. On Friday night at Boston College’s William J. Flynn Sports Complex, family and friends gathered to watch the Bryant’s men and women’s swim teams compete against the Boston College Eagles. The women’s 200 yard medley relay is up and the swimmers enter the pool and the meet begins. The women are off with Boston College’s relay in the lead. Bryant is close behind, but Boston College touches first, and Bryant’s A relay takes second with a time of 1:50.60. The next event was an exciting 1000 yard Freestyle. Freshman, Valeria Watson led the pack, placing first with a 10:48.74 and Junior, Lauren Doerrman finished second with a 10:54.69, just out-touching the Boston College swimmer to her left. The Boston College Eagles went on to score another first place in the 200 yard Freestyle with a 1:58.63. Bryant came back with a bang in the 100 yard Backstroke, where Bryant Swimmers Watson, Elisabeth Schauer, and Mackenzie Kirk placed first, second, and third. The 100 yard Breastroke was next, and Julia Messina took an early lead at the 50 yard mark but Boston College’s Melissa Merwin snagged the lead and took first with a time of 1:08.69. Bryant’s Messina and Morreale placed second and third. The 200 yard Butterflyers were up next to swim in one of the hardest events in my opinion. At the 100 yard mark, Boston College’s Emily Smith had the lead with another hundred to go and maintained that lead, touching the wall with Family and friends gathered to watch the Bryant men and women’s swim team compete a 2:11.72. The women stepped up for the next event, the 50 yard free. Boston against the Boston College Eagles (Courtesy of Bryant Athletics) College again placed first with a 24.55.

with the hope of somehow changing the world to make it a better and more accepting place after graduation in the spring of 2015. Bryant has really helped to cultivate the sense of feminist pride and emotion that Echezabal maintains throughout her daily life. Though she believes that feminism has always been a component of who she is as a person, Echezabal believes that feminism – her belief in equality of all people regardless of any semblance of differences, has always been a major pillar in her belief set. It was not until she was taking a human resources class here at Bryant University that she realized how pertinent this issue was to the world outside of her own circle. The moment that changed Echezabal’s perspective entirely was when class discussion turned to the idea of paternity leave. She became very upset to think about the very stark reality that after a baby is born men are expected to return to work immediately. This was a ludicrous idea to Echezabal: “The father should have time with his newborn baby, and the mother needs help! Why are men being discriminated against because they did not physically give birth to the child? A few weeks of time off could only benefit all parties Laura Echezabal shown above involved!” It is in this way that Bryant University provides a real-life prospective that many other colleges and universities avoid, thus showing the students the reality of the real world Is it possible to not drink Bryant Said What?! and have fun at Bryant?

Total Recall is a wonderful groundbreaking film providing a relief from the dull action movies of a couple years prior. At its time of release in 1990, it was one of the most expensive films ever made. Although the $65 million was astounding then, it does not compare to movies produced afterwards such as Tangled, John Carter, or Avatar that all had a budget exceeding $200 million. Total Recall went on to earn a box office of over $260 million.

‘Total Recall is a wonderful groundbreaking film providing a relief from the dull action movies of a couple years prior.’

The movie encompasses a range of genres, leaping between adventure, action, and sci-fi. Total Recall was the last of its kind, having used miniature effects. Movies such as 2001: A Space Odyssey employed heavy use of such technique, where scale models are used along with unique photography. Miniature effects were made obsolete soon after with the use of computer-generated imagery. Ironically, it was Arnold Schwarzenegger starring in James Cameron’s Terminator 2 that revolutionized the industry with its use of CGI. (Jurassic Park, which came two years after, played a huge role in CGI coming to Hollywood as well). Despite incredible advances in technology many successful films have continued to use miniatures such as Titanic, Casino Royale, and The Dark Knight. In Total Recall’s 113 minute running time, there was only one 42 second CGI scene. It depicted a simple use of x-ray. Despite antiquated techniques in cinematography that may look awkward today, the film looked great for its time, and its unique aura still has a presence in my heart. With strong violence, language, and scenes of nudity the film was originally given an X rating. One of few complaints I have about this movie is I fear the producers

Movie Poster (MCT Campus) implanted, he has a bad reaction and ends up going back to his house only to be approached by a group of people. He engages in a fight, and ends up killing them. Returning home, he finds his life to be a lie when his wife, Lori, says that their marriage is false and just a memory. What ensues after this is a crazy adventure, leaving a big finish that will have you puzzled as to what truly happened. Total Recall’s legacy is one for the ages. It has inspired many other directors, and led to a new way of thinking in filmography. Roger Ebert gave the film 3.5 stars out of 4, despite being harsh and critical at times, and continued to praise it. The movie’s success led to the writing of a sequel. The screenplay originally titled Total Recall 2, underwent drastic changes and went on a different course. The movie caught Hollywood legend, Steven Spielberg’s eye, and was released in 2002 as Minority Report starring Tom Cruise. Total Recall was remade in 2012, starring big stars such as Colin Farrell and Bryan Cranston. The remake met harsh criticism, and was generally not well liked. For fans of brilliant concepts that will leave you testing your faith, I recommend to you Total Recall. Scene from the movie (MCT Campus) This movie received 3.5 out of 5 Bulldogs involved nudity where it was not needed in order to make a shock factor, grab the audience’s attention through parts that were slow, and to sell tickets. It is a shame that this movie is known to many as ‘That movie with the three boobed Martian chick.’ To combat any audience’s fears and ensure a successful box office, executives downplayed some of the scenes to get its R rating. Filming primarily took place in Mexico City, not something that is apparent with much filming taking place inside the studio and on staged sets. In the first scene, advanced technology is shown, displaying a setting in the future. The movie takes place in 2084, and revolves around Douglas Quaid played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. Troubled by recurring dreams, he looks into Rekall. The company is one that offers artificial vacation experiences. It works by implanting a memory that would provide him with recollections of a fantastic vacation, while never leaving the company. Douglas undergoes questions to find what vacation would suit him best, and he chooses to go to Mars as a secret agent. What covers the rest of the plot is a captivating adventure, more than any Douglas could have hoped for out of his visit. As the memory was about to be
