Thursday, september 20, 2012 campustimes.org / page 5 Opinions EDITORIAL cartoon EDITORIAL BOARD Food for thought Hillside Market’s assortment of produce is as inconsistent as it is varied. Its website shows pictures of an abundant fruit and vegetable selection, which is not always the case. This prob- lem can be rectified through a variety of means in order to provide students with more fresh produce options on campus. Many students who live in dorms with kitchens rely on Hillside for nourishing vegetable and fruit options to cook with on weekdays when University shuttles do not run to Wegmans or Tops. Even with these shuttles running on the weekends, many students often prefer to buy produce at Hillside with their pre-paid meal plans. This dilemma is further aggravated by the fact that Hillside receives its last delivery of fruits and vegetables for the week on Fridays, and it does not get its next shipment until Monday, which leaves students with dwindling produce options as the weekend progresses. Alex Kurland / staff illustrator Even when Hillside has replenished the produce selection, most of the fruit is past its prime; for example, the bananas are often brown, the mangos quite moldy and the random leftover EDITORIAL observer pears full of bruises. Hillside should stock its baskets with fruits and vegetables that are in good condition so that Remember November: the selection of available options will be more fresh and ready to eat. Buying local produce from farms around the Rochester area could be another route to look into. After all, Hillside already buys local milk from Upstate Farms. Buying local produce would support community why we should vote in 2012 farms and their owners and make students aware of their food source. During his four years in office, In addition to the lack of produce variety at Hillside, the irregularity and inconsistency of President Barack Obama has fruits and vegetables does not match the University’s laudable emphasis on healthy eating.

Plans for a new residence hall were announced in August 2011 and construction began in September of that year. Work continued through the 2011-12 academic year and concluded in time for students to move in to O’Brien Hall, named for the University’s eighth president, Dennis O’Brien, this fall.

CT Recommends... If you only know Darren Criss from “Glee,” have never heard the phrase “super-mega-foxy- awesome-hot” and don’t understand the incredible bromance between Voldemort and Quirrell, then unfortunately, no one ever introduced you to StarKid Productions — which is something that needs starkid productions to be immediately remedied. StarKid Productions is made up of a group of friends, which, at it’s core, consists of Darren Criss, Joey Richter, Lauren Lopez and others, who write, direct, compose by Erika Howard and choreograph musicals. But what started as a college theater group has gone far beyond that. A&E Editor They now have five completed musicals on their YouTube channel (under the username StarKid- Potter), as well as videos of their two national tours: the S.P.A.C.E. tour and the Apocalyptour. And each production is better than the last. Their first show was “A Very Potter Musical,” which combines the plot lines of the Harry Potter series, taking specific plot points from each novel to incorporate into the musical. This show had a low production value, but is well-written and a must see for any Harry Potter fan. They followed the show up with “A Very Potter Sequel,” and “A Very Potter Senior Year” is supposed to be in the works. In addition to the AVPM series, StarKid also created “Me and My Dick,” which is as hilarious and inappropriate as it sounds, “Starship,” and “Holy Musical B@man!” all of which are well worth the time it takes to watch them. So on some night when you need a break from studying, go online and watch some of the StarKid shows — they’re all “totally awesome.” Page 14 / campustimes.org a&e / Thursday, September 20, 2012 Season four premiere returns show to golden days of original ‘Glee’ further in future episodes, but at the moment there is nothing truly special about her besides her gorgeous voice.

Eventually, he decides to move on to the next stage in his life and go to New York, resulting in one of the most emotionally taxing scenes in all of “Glee.” Kurt’s father, Burt, played by the ever talented Mike O’Malley, who seems to have become the king of emotional scenes within the show, Courtesy ofjustjaredjr.com drops him off at the airport with The new season of “Glee” kicked off with a new member for the old Glee club. a tearful goodbye. changes from page 13 status as hard as they can.
