Host: Program Board Performing Arts

Date: Monday, October 23, 2006

Time: 8:00pm - 10:00pm

Venue: Bovard Auditorium, University of Southern California

EXPERIENCE DANCE LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE

Diavolo is a famous internationally acclaimed modern dance company, who have been recognized for years as being at the vanguard of the modern dance movment. Come see a dance show that is unlike any other you will ever see.

Whether you are a long-time lover of dance or you have never seen or cared about dance in your life, this show will take your breath away.

The company is composed of dancers, gymnasts and actors who choreograph their pieces around outrageous and surrealistic set pieces. Everyday items such as doors, chairs and stairways provide the back-drop for dramatic movement – leaping, flying, twirling – that creates metaphors for the challenge of relationships, the absurdities of life and the struggle to maintain our humanity in an increasingly technological world.

USC STUDENTS: ADMISSION IS FREE. Just show up before the show starts WITH YOUR STUDENT ID and you will be let it. Get there early for good seats, seating will be first come first serve.

Non-USC Students: buy tickets from the USC ticket office, 213.740.711 

Ralph Nader Information--all must be included!

The USC Program Board Political Student Assembly, Speakers Committee, Jesse M. Unruh Institute of Politics, and the Blackstonians present:

Ralph Nader
Don't Waste Your 20's!
Take on the Little Things & The Big Things
A featured seminar of the Provost's Graduate Social Impact Seminar Series

Tuesday, October 24
THH 101 @ 6PM

Honored by Time magazine as One of the 100 Most Influential Americans of the Twentieth Century, author, consumer advocate and presidential candidate for the Green Party, Ralph Nader, has devoted his life to giving ordinary people the tools they need to defend themselves against corporate negligence and government indifference. With a tireless, selfless dedication, he continues to expose and remedy the dangers that threaten a free and safe society. Laws he helped draft and pass include the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Meat and Poultry Inspection Rules, the Air and Water Pollution Control Laws and the Freedom of Information Act.

Nader delivers a message that is simple and compelling: "To go through life as a non-citizen would be to feel that there's nothing you can do, that nobody's listening, that you don't matter. But to be a citizen is to enjoy the deep satisfaction of seeing the prevention of pain, misery and injustice."

Task List - 10/09

This week the events which we would most like to focus on are:

Facebook

Ok a Facebook group has been started in relation to Program Board. 
If you have not received an invitation as yet, you are not on my
Facebook friend's list, so I do not know your information.
If that is the case,please look for the
Program Board Facebook group and join.
After joining, please invite your friends so this can become a
useful tool to publicize and comments on events. Thanks.

Assemblies & Committees

Hey just wanted to post an email I sent out to the assemblies for 
which I was to gather information. Thought it might be useful 
just in case you were unsure of how to receive 
information. Please feel free to use it as a guide.

Subject: ISA Information Request

Suffian,
Hello, my name is Raiza Cabral and I am writing to you on behalf of the Public Relations team of Program Board. We are currently working to collect PR information on the various committees and assemblies of Program Board in order to be more effective and prepared in publicizing the requested events. I am hoping that as the contact for ISA you can provide PBPR with information regarding your assembly, such as intitatives of the assembly, upcoming events, preferences for publicity, desired target audience and the like. This information will be benficial for the team and your assembly as well in order to appropriately and successfully publicize for ISA. Thank you and any extra information is appreciated.
- Raiza
