Happenings

Some things of note:

• This Wednesday, January 12th, is a minimum day. Do not show up at 8:30 and expect classes. Check the Bell Schedule page for a minimum day schedule.
• Dance Productions opened up this last weekend. I haven’t yet seen it myself, but I’ve heard from many many sources that it’s excellent, so I recommend you go see it. It will be showing again this Friday and Saturday at 8:00 PM in the Little Theater. Tickets are $5 for students and $10 for everyone else. Show up early if you want good seats, because it sounds like it’s gonna be pretty full.
• The Berkeley High Arts Magazine—which incidentally I run—is looking to publish a sample issue soon and we’re seeking out submissions to put in that issue. We’re also seeking out donations of money, advice, software, technology, plane tickets to Mexico, etc. If you or someone you know has some of this in excess and is willing to give it away to a worthy cause, send us an email at creativearts@berkeleyhigh.org. Submissions should be deposited to the Magazine’s box in the library.
• The end of the semester and finals are coming up in a few weeks. Better get those grades up.
