Sof Kennesaw State University www.ksusentinel.com TUESDAY The April 8, 2008 VOLUME 43 ISSUE 23 ENTINEL OF KENNESAW STATE UNIVERSITY SS SERVING SINCE 1966 Money, football and smoking - big topics at SG debate CLARK BARROW STAFF WRITER As elections day draws closer, the student government held a debate for the presidential and vice- presidential candidates on April 2 in the Social Science lecture hall. The presidential candidates are Punit Patel and Victor Ward along with vice-presidential candidates Amanda Barnes and Casey Parker; each who are running mates, respectively. Voting for the student government 2008/2009 elections was held on April 7 and 8. The candidates were allowed to make opening statements, Shining star retires where they were given an opportunity to let students hear their platform and were then presented with questions by three pan- elists. The panelists included Emily Wells, from the office of Minority Student Retention Services, Kelly Blaine and Dave Dalton, student writers for the KSU Sentinel. Dr. Kerwin Swint, associate professor of political science, was moderator of the debate. Parker, who has served as an officer in student government for two years, expressed a desire to make student government the avenue students can go through for issues they have on campus. Parker said that joining student government was the first thing she did at KSU and, as a result, is very familiar with its operation. Parker, who supports bringing football to KSU, said that it would increase the value of a degree, because it would give the university a more recognizable name. She also stated that stu- dent money should not be used to pay for the cost of football, and that the university should ask alumni to support bringing Dr. Nancy King through the years: inset top-1980; inset bottom left-1981; inset bottom right-1982; far right-2008 football to KSU.

  • Masculinity in Emo Music a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in Candi
    CARLETON UNIVERSITY FLUID BODIES: MASCULINITY IN EMO MUSIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC BY RYAN MACK OTTAWA, ONTARIO MAY 2014 ABSTRACT Emo is a genre of music that typically involves male performers, which evolved out of the punk and hardcore movements in Washington DC during the mid-80s. Scholarly literature on emo has explored its cultural and social contexts in relation to the “crisis” of masculinity—the challenging of the legitimacy of patriarchy through “alternative” forms of masculinity. This thesis builds upon this pioneering work but departs from its perpetuation of strict masculine binaries by conflating hegemonic and subordinate/alternative masculinities into a single subject position, which I call synergistic masculinity. In doing so, I use emo to explicate this vis-à-vis an intertextual analysis that explores the dominant themes in 1) lyrics; 2) the sites of vocal production (head, throat, chest) in conjunction with pitch and timbre; 3) the extensional and intensional intervallic relationships between notes and chords, and the use of dynamics in the musical syntax; 4) the use of public and private spaces, as well as the performative masculine body in music video. I posit that masculine emo performers dissolve these hierarchically organized masculinities, which allows for a deeper musical meaning and the extramusical signification of masculinity. Keywords: emo, synergistic masculinity, performativity, music video, masculinities, lyrics, vocal production, musical syntax, dynamics. ABSTRAIT Emo est un genre musical qui implique typiquement des musiciens de sexe masculine et qui est issu de movement punk et hardcore originaire de Washington DC durant les années 80.

Rhymes and Linkin Park recently collaborated on “We Made It,” the first single and video from Rhymes’ upcoming album, Blessed. By touring together, Linkin Park & Busta are taking a cue from the chorus of their song: “…we took it on the road…”. As recently pointed out in Rolling Stone’s “Summer Tour Guide,” the tour will see nine acts joining rock superstars Linkin Park, who are also offering concertgoers a digital souvenir pack that includes a recording of the band’s entire set. As the band’s co-lead vocalist Mike Shinoda told the magazine, “That puts extra pressure on us to make sure our set is different every night.” The fifth installation of Linkin Park’s raging road show will see them headlining an all-star bill that features former Soundgarden/Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell, electro-rockers The Bravery and Ashes Divide featuring Billy Howerdel, known for his work with A Perfect Circle.
