The idea of Punta Cana and other exotic vacation destinations sounds great ...until you see the cost. Studies have shown that more and more college students have made other alternative spring break plans that do not include binge drinking or draining your bank accounts. Don’t get me wrong, millions of students each year will still choose to take the exotic trips, however, many students this year at the U chose to give up their spring breaks for service, not partying.

Ask the members of Eye on Attraction how they came together as a band and you’re likely to get an answer along the lines of this: guitarist Mike Trischetta and bassist Joe Terry were raised by the same wolf pack, where they fought dragons together and later competed against each other in a contest of strength, knowing just as well as the other members of their wolf pack that they would someday get together to form a band.  Sound a bit far-fetched?  They certainly found this to be a more entertaining answer then the simple truth: Joe, clad in a guitar t-shirt, sat next to  future drummer Andrew Merkle in class one day and noticed he was wearing a drum t-shirt.  Noting their mutual love of music, the two decided to form a band....

What college-aged girl in America doesn’t love Ryan Gosling these days? Would you believe me if I told you his beautiful bod was actually in and around the University of Scranton campus? It’s all so wonderfully true. Though the movie Blue Valentine was released in 2010, parts of the University of Scranton campus were used as settings, remaining captured on film for any Ryan Gosling lover or independent movie buff to view until the end of time.

Dr. Sufyan Mohammed is pretty hard to miss. It might be because he’s always dressed to impress in tailored suits or maybe because he always has his student “slackers” at his side. Even though Dr. Mohammed has worked with top dogs in the industry (He was Assistant Vice President of Weber Shandwick-India!), he admits that there’s nothing like preparing his students to be the new top-dogs after they graduate.
