When Hinkle celebrated its 80th birthday on March 7, its fans were as true and diverse as ever. The crowds, the athletes and even famed speakers and royalty have spent many a game in the fieldhouse on a sunny Saturday afternoon.

In its entire splendor, though, the gray hairs are beginning to show. In the next year, Butler will spend approximately $750,000 on renovations. A controversial reaction is often the initial response to much of our history’s art that later becomes iconic, Michael Kammen said at the Leadership through the Arts Forum at Butler University’s Eidson-Duckwall Recital Hall Thursday night. Easter cheer was spread around Butler’s campus last week as children from the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ISBVI) came for the classic “egg hunt.” The celebration was held on March 19 from 4 - 6 p.m. at the Delta Gamma house.

The women of Delta Gamma hunted eggs and worked on crafts with 30 of the children from the school and later dined on corn dogs, macaroni and cheese and cupcakes. The SGA assembly approved a $1,000 grant to the men’s a capella group Out Of The Dawg House on Wednesday. That money will go toward the production of their new CD, which will be available at their spring concert scheduled for April 26 in the Atherton Union Reilly Room. A small group of students explored their interests and possible careers at the “What Should I Do with My Life” workshop on March 19 in Jordan Hall. The workshop, consisting of students from all grade levels, was led by Butler career exploration adviser Kathy Matthies. “Who in this room thinks getting a job is about who you know?” asked Vernon Cheek, the assistant director of public relations for the Indianapolis Colts.

Naturally everyone in the room raised their hands, nodding in agreement. “You’re wrong,” Cheek said. Everyone looked around confused… “It’s about who knows you.”

Cheek, along with four other panelists, gave advice and answered questions for a room full of students at the Learning Resource Center’s “Careers in Advertising, Marketing and Public Relations” discussion.
