Actor-Singers needed for Musical-theatre at SLC

Following the success of the past years, SLC will again be producing an original musical-comedy to be presented in February 2013.  This year's production, entitled "The Broth of Brith" is fun-filled fantasy-comedy driven by over 15 great songs.  Many actors, singers and production crew are needed, it is open to students and staff, and no experience is required.  To learn more about this great cultural opportunity, come to our first meeting on Monday, November 5 at 16:00 in room 223.   No previous experience needed, and it's a great way to improve your spoken English.  (If you have any questions, just see John Halpin in Rm. 226, or send him a Mio).

Homophobia Despite breakthroughs in society's recognition of sexual diversity, homophobia is still active even if the ways in which it surfaces are growing subtler. Our societies recognize that homophobia is a form of discrimination just as any other form of discrimination. Like combating these other forms, people from all communities need to become aware of this issue.

On Tuesday, November 27, SLC will present various activities on the subject of homophobia and how you can help. Follow this link for a music video bearing witness to the everyday fight homosexuals must face.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlVBg7_08n0&feature=share
