• Third Eye Blind to Play at Quadmania 2010
  Posted on Thursday, March 4th, 2010 in Campus Life by Sparky
  I have just stumbled across a facebook event advertising Third Eye Blind as part of SEB’s Quadmania this April 16-18. Tickets are $10 with a UMBC ID and go on sale at the Commons info desk Wednesday March 10 at 12pm. The show will be in the RAC and there appears to be no ticket limit listed on the facebook event.

  I have just stumbled across a facebook event advertising Third Eye Blind as part of SEB’s Quadmania this April 16-18. Tickets are $10 with a UMBC ID and go on sale at the Commons info desk Wednesday March 10 at 12pm. The show will be in the RAC and there appears to be no ticket limit listed on the facebook event.

This seems like it has potential. Personally I feel like this is an act that could appeal to a wide variety of students. Obviously you can never please everyone, but I’m going to go ahead and give SEB some major props for securing Third Eye Blind to come play.

This is (or should be) the link to the facebook event.

So what are everyone’s thoughts on Third Eye Blind?

Due to two vacancies in the current SGA Senate for Spring 2010, we are accepting applications for students that want to fill those spots for the Spring semester. Senators are usually elected during Spring each year, but we do not want to leave the seats empty and reduce our abilities to serve the student body.

  I’ve updated the weekly events post below to reflect the parking forums that will take place this week on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.The Governor’s capital budget for FY2011 has been announced, and includes $37.4 million for the construction of the new Performing Arts and Humanities Facility, covering a broad range of subjects like Dance, Music, and Theatre.

The Governor’s capital budget for FY2011 has been announced, and includes $37.4 million for the construction of the new Performing Arts and Humanities Facility, covering a broad range of subjects like Dance, Music, and Theatre.  With this funding secured and plans to break ground this summer, the school is hosting student forums on parking (an issue we’ve covered before) to hear from the student body.

What experiences have people had in the last semester that might give fresh perspective on this issue?  Personally, I’ve heard a few murmurs about the overflow lot filling up recently.  What are your thoughts?  Join the discussion and get yourself ready to ask these questions in a true forum this week.  Be heard, UU!
