Culture Club: The Cultural Studies Scholars’ Association, a graduate student group committed to promoting the study of culture on BGSU campus, will be hosting a brand new film series next Tuesday, February 12 at 7:30 in the Gish Film Theater.
The theme of Culture Club’s 2008 Battleground States Conference is “The Body in Culture,” and this selection of short films will highlight the different and diverse ways the body is mediated, represented, and distorted through film. One of the short films showcased will be The Scary Lewis Yell-athon, a darkly comic satire that parodies telethons that are designed to “help” persons with disabilities, but sometimes fail to do so in any meaningful way.
This event, sponsored by Culture Club and the Department of Theatre and Film, will be of particular interest to anyone interested in disability studies, video art, and performance.

Dr. Cynthia Mahaffey, Instructor in General Studies Writing, Women’s Studies and the Chapman Learning Community writes:
I am the faculty sponsor for a wonderful organization called Game Game Night, which offers students of color a safe social activity (board game playing) on campus once a month and also raises money for children’s charities. Last year, Game Game Night used all their budget for these charities and now need to augment their supply of board games for use during their meetings. Since I gave most of mine to Kohl Hall a few years back, I am hoping some of you have board games in nice condition, you can place them in my box at East Hall and I will pass them on to Game Game Night.
