This is not an experience unique to Cowles. Many freshmen may find themselves frustrated with the narrow scope of visual arts programs the college offers to first years, as well as the lack of publicity for the programs that do exist. Another freshman, Henry J. Foo ’08, e-mailed the VES department looking for information on painting outside of class. He did receive a reply, though not a particularly helpful...
...it’s our job to figure it out. But the crowd doesn’t seem to be too worried about this responsibility—the table of Marinaras sitting behind us are too busy swilling drinks and singing adult renditions of “Little Bunny Foo-Foo” to agonize over Ditalina’s tears.

In the past year, Grohl has also played drums on every track of acclaimed albums by heavy-metal rockers Queens of the Stone Age, female singer-songwriter Cat Power and goth princes Killing Joke (whose first album in seven years, Killing Joke, is out this week). Grohl has also released a platinum-selling Foo Fighters record, performed with Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello...
