If the goal was to spark discussion and surprise, the supposed “genocide pictures” posted around Wells Hall on Monday and Tuesday certainly accomplished their task. MSU Students for Life and the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform organized “The Genocide Awareness Project,” a photo exhibit of aborted fetuses alongside historical examples of genocide, including victims of the Holocaust and Rwandan and Cambodian massacres. The Wells Hall courtyard is known for startling displays and protests, and the last couple of days have proved to be no exception. But this was not the best way to make a point.

The Juliana Theory“Music from Another Room”(Tooth and Nail)If The Juliana Theory is any indication where modern rock and roll is headed, then fans of the craft are in for a treat. Its latest release is a collection of songs that didn’t make it on to its powerful 2000 release “Emotion is Dead,” and various B-sides.

Many students complain about the price of book at bookstores - and MSU’s undergraduate government is trying to help. ASMSU’s Academic Assembly passed two bills Tuesday that could alleviate the cost of textbooks by setting up a book exchange program through its Web site. The site will be a free exchange of books to all students - similar to a message board where students can set their own prices. Jared English, representative for James Madison College, introduced the bills and said the bills call for the Webmaster to keep the site updated and for the director of public relations to publicize the new Web Site. The bill took awhile to finalize because ASMSU had to make sure they weren’t breaking any laws, he said. “The university wanted to make sure we talk to our lawyers about the legalese before we went ahead with it,” English said. The international relations sophomore said it will be up to the students to make this site work and he’s hoping to have the book exchange fully operational before finals. “I hope students take the time to do it, it requires them to take the initiative,” he said. Many MSU students said they’re interested in what ASMSU’s Web site has to offer. Mike Barker, an English sophomore, said he spent almost $500 on books this semester.
