The Wylde Bunch am ps th e crowd for the Black Eyed Peas wi th original material and so ngs rich with fun samp les like "Mr. Big Shot."

The Pea make its way to the stage, opening with "The Boogie That Be," from its 2003 album " lep hunk." Fergie sets the ton e for the rest of the eveni ng, garn~ rin g the most screams and applause with her so los and funky dancing.

    •I ..I I ~ : ::

    S.O.S. has been made aware of DRUG-FACILITATED RAPES occurring on our campus and in the Newark area this semester. Here are some ways you can lower your risk:

    • If you are heading out to drink, remember alcohol impairs perception & judgment. So have a plan of what you will do and stick to that plan. Use the ·buddy system. Watch your drink as it is being poun~d or madefor you. Don't drink it if you didn't see it being prepared. Don't drink from punch bowls. You don't know what has been put in the punch·. If you move around, take your drink with you. Never leave it unattended, including with friends. These tips apply whether you drink non-alcoholic or alcoholic beverages. If you are drinking alcohol and you feel "too drunk" too fast for the amount of alcohol you consumed, GET HELP. You, may have been drugged and you might be close to passing out. • If you know or suspect you have been drugged and sexually assaulted, call S.O.S. at 831-2226 for 24/7 rape crisis support and information about your options. • For more information about rape or date rape drugs, see our website: www.udel.edu/wellspring/SOS

    Remember, most sexual assaults are perpetrated by SOMEONE YOU KNOW & TRUST, (your date, an acquaintance, friend of a friend), NOT the stranger in the bushes.

    S.O.S. is accepting applications for volunteers. We are extending our application 'deadline to Monday, November 22nd. Apply online at: www.udel.edu/wellspring/SOS ovember
