I have never been to a movie where barf bags have been supplied, but that all changed with “Raw.” This French-Belgian horror film is about an innocent girl trying to adjust to the tumultuous life of veterinarian school. Directed by French director Julia Ducournau, it has won many awards in film festivals throughout Europe.
Senior Jason Grimes, junior Jeric Kasunic and sohomore Josh Terao weren't supposed to be watching the finals of the 2017 NCAA Wrestling championships in St. Louis.

Veteran Iranian director Asghar Farhadi returns this year with “The Salesman,” a nuanced portrayal of one couple’s struggle to come to terms with a brutal assault.

After Rana is violently attacked by a stranger while in the shower, her and Emad’s differing reactions to the incident lead to tension and paranoia.

I’m going to start this by saying I’m dismayed I have to even write this, however, the recent events on American University’s campus and across this nation have frankly shocked me – and I am not easily distressed. For many Americans, Tuesday was supposed to be a continuation of the last eight years under President Obama. For others, it was supposed to be an upheaval of the political elite. Whichever way you look at the results of Tuesday’s election, we have to live with it. However, I am not here to discuss why one candidate won over the other, or why this or that happened. I am addressing the events on Wednesday afternoon outside of the Mary Graydon Center on the main quad.

A long walk in the dark led me to the Kreeger Building, the venue for AU Rude Mechanical’s Variety Show: Dystopia. Situated in the back of campus, Kreeger is typically one of the buildings that few students realize exists, much less can find; however, as home to many of the Rude Mechanical’s productions, it is a spot to keep in mind.
There are a lot of things you can do to receive a conduct violation at our university. I would know: as the Director of the Student Advocacy Center, I lead a team of students who work to defend those accused of committing violations. From being underage with alcohol in your residence hall, to stealing door decorations RAs put on rooms before students move in, there are a lot of different things you can do to get yourself an appointment with the Conduct Office.
On Sept., 15, the AU men’s basketball team officially released its schedule for the upcoming season.
