A short dance piece set to Imogen Heap's song Hide and Seek. Focusing on the low incarceration rates for sexual assualt cases. The dancers body is decorated with statistics as you watch her fight the constant battle with the media and against rape culture to be seen as more then just a body to abuse. Eventually ending with her death a figurative ending to the never ending battle for justice in cases of this magnitude. Co-Creater with fellow Odyssey writer, Yasmeen Ashour and dancer Akeelah "Bizzare" Metlock for our final projects. The statistics are as follows:

15 out of 16 Rapists walk free.

39% of attacks reported of those 50.8% chance of arrest.

Of 39% of attacks reported, 16.3% chance of prison.

If arrested 80% chance of prosecution.

If prosecuted 58% chance of arrest.

Once convicted only 64% chance of jail time.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
