So, what are students planning to do for the break? Kyle Jensen, a sophomore majoring in marketing, said he's going to Los Angeles and Las Vegas with friends during Spring Break. He said he's going to Mget drunk on the beach" and have a break from normal day life. Ann Snell, a freshman majoring in art, said she's going to go home to Payson in Utah County and do homework. Whitney Smith, a freshman majoring in business said she's "going home to Pocatello, the best place ever." She said while she's there she'll go shopping with her mom. "There's no place like home," Smith said. Adriana Hansen, a sopho- more majoring in theater education, said she doesn't know what she's doing for Spring Break She said since she's from West Virginia, she's definitely not going home. She said if all else fails, she'll go down to her sisters in Orem. "I'm going to catch up on some much-needed sleep," she said. Rebekah Loss, a sophomore majoring in art, said she's going to San Francisco through the Art Guild. "I'll be going to a bunch of art museums and I'm excited because I haven't been to a real one before," she said. Robbie Welch, a freshman with an undeclared major said he's going home to Alpine where he'll hang out with friends and possibly go to Las Vegas.

In a word, his work is fascinating. In another, it's engrossing. "A Lesson before Dying/' by Ernest J. Gaines: Don't let its inclusion in Oprah's book club dissuade you from reading Gaines' story of Southern manhood in the midst of prejudice and bigotry. The novel centers around a man sentenced to die and the man sent to help him become a man before his execution. As poignant as its title suggests, the novel's language makes it very accessible. "In Cold Blooa," by Truman Capote: On Nov. 15, 1959, in the town of Holcomb, Kansas, four members of the Clutter family were murdered by blasts from a shotgun held a few inches from their faces. There was no apparent motive for the crime, and there were almost no clues. Five years, four months and 29 days later, on April 14, 1965, Richard Eugene Hitchcock, age 33, and Perry Edward Smith, age 33, were hanged forthe crime on a gallows, in a warehouse in the Kansas State Penitentiary in Lansing, Kansas. One of the finest journalistic novels of the past century, Capote's book recounts the life and death of those six people. Well, there you go. Be careful though, if you read them all over Spring Break, there's a chance you'll come back a drugged-out, magic-loving, middle-aged professor with a good tan. Maybe it's best to take 'em one at a time. Matt Wright is an English major and book critic for the Utah Statesman. Comments can be sent to him at mattgo@cc.usu.edu. |
