What's going on!?

E-mail Print PDF

Worried about where all the stories are?  Don't sweat it!  Traditionally smalltalkMU takes a break for finals and the holidays (even now we ready the fowl... slowly fattening it to perfection... preparing it for a hot-oil bath producing so very tasty vittles...).  Video updates will hold on until just after Thanksgiving, but then we'll consume so much turkey that we can't move until next semester...

 What now you say?  Where to find quality news online?  NOWHERE ELSE.  This is why we need YOU!  We've got tons of new features coming in the spring and we need your help making it happen.  Swing by either of the offices in the Berns to find out how to get on the air.  Yes, I said air...

Garber House of Horrors

Screams could be heard throughout the night on Thurs, Oct 30, coming from “Garber’s House of Horrors.”  Members from the Residence Hall Association (RHA) and Greek Life worked throughout the day to bring a horrifying haunted house to Methodist’s campus.  

“It was ballin’,” said Ashley Williams, a freshman who visited Garber.

The suspense built as everyone entered the Garber lobby. Mummies and bloody hand prints covered the windows. The line of people zigzagged throughout Garber’s lobby and up the stairs into the hallway.  Victims waited in line while a caution video played on the television. They were soon led throughout the “house” in groups of four or five by a tour guide.

The first room was full of body parts. Some were on the floor while others were hanging from the ceiling.  As the groups passed through the second room many were grabbed unexpectedly by a clown lying on the floor. The groups were then taken to the end of the hallway and could see a room full of clowns and a room with a man being electrocuted prior to being led outside. 

Outside the groups were exposed to another area full of body parts and were led around a corner to a graveyard. The graveyard had headstones and a few coffins in it and someone popped up out one of them as the groups walked by. The graveyard also consisted of some headstones. 

In the end everyone was taken to the exit where a mad man with a chainsaw chased the victims from the house.

For the first time in over 50 years, Methodist University will have a student representative speaking at commencement.

Last year, senior Ben Gray attended a graduation ceremony at MU for the first time and was unpleasantly surprised about the lack of student involvement. He decided to be proactive. Gray met with the University President, Elton Hendricks, to voice his concerns about the graduation ceremonies.

Gray was told that "a formal proposal must be created to fully convince our academic community."
