Letter to the editor: ‘Giving cords’ detract from graduation’s focus
By Benjamin Trachtenberg | Apr. 30, 2009There is no question that the University of Wisconsin—Madison is at a pivotal point in its history. Unless private funding is found, decreasing state funding and rising operational costs will inevitably push the university toward a point where it will have to choose between drastically reducing services or increasing tuition beyond ""affordable levels.""

Trying to best the ‘King’
By Caissa Casarez | Apr. 30, 2009Everyone young and old has at least heard of the popular retro video game Donkey Kong, whether it's because of their parents playing the original version as a child, seeing the characters on a T-shirt or playing the countless spinoffs on any of Nintendo's systems.

‘Informers’ a boring trip
By Eamon Doyle | Apr. 30, 2009Gregor Jordan's ""The Informers"" is a new window into the world that Bret Easton Ellis has been creating since the publication of ""Less Than Zero"" in 1985. It is a world of recurring and interchangeable characters, extravagant wealth and nihilistic depravity. This can be seen in the film adaptation of his novel ""American Psycho,"" which augments the text nicely, largely due to an impressive performance by Christian Bale, and has become a unique reference point for Ellis, who comments on the movie version in his quasi-autobiographical ""Lunar Park."" The film version of ""The Informers,"" however, has been ravaged in reviews thus far. Although it is certainly not a great film—it is mediocre—I feel that some of these critics might have missed the point.
