Last Wednesday, the experimental Los Angeles music project Lucky Dragons came to EMPAC to put on a performance titled Actual Reality. Lucky Dragons is largely a collaboration between Sarah Rara and Luke Fischbeck, who are joined by various other artists for their shows. This performance included flutists Margaret Lancaster, Sato Moughalian, and Erin Lesser; bassoonist Dana Jessen; and percussionist David Aron. The project takes its name from a fishing vessel that was caught in the fallout from hydrogen bomb tests in the 1950s. They sounded really interesting, so I went to see them perform.

Unfortunately, I was a little disappointed; the music was very weird and a bit minimalist for my tastes. One aspect of the performance I enjoyed was that the flute players were situated behind the three main seating sections rather than in the middle of the room with the other performers. I also enjoyed one part where two of the group members sat at a small table and pushed around what looked like a tray or board of some kind on top of it. This caused sounds of varying degrees of tone, pitch, and volume to emanate over the flute-and-bassoon backdrop, and expanding and contracting bars of light appeared on the ceiling to match the board’s movements. I thought that part was really neat.

The rest of the performance, however, not so much. Though the percussionist’s array of things to percuss upon was very cool-looking, I could barely make out the sounds he was making. As a big fan of more traditional drums, this saddened me. I was fairly bored by the end of the show; even the changing visuals on the screen behind the musicians ceased being interesting after a while, as they changed too slowly. The screen would show things like colored smoke rising past a brick wall, or a triangle being struck and then rotating in slow motion with echoing images of itself following the real instrument. Interesting, but not after an hour of staring at them.

While many other people enjoy Lucky Dragons’ shows—they have, in fact, performed in several locations around Europe and the United States—I felt that last Wednesday’s performance was lacking. It had great promise and certainly looked quite different from more mainstream music, but it failed to deliver on the potential that attracted me to the show in the first place. Perhaps I just didn’t appreciate the performance. However, it’s nothing I would listen to on CD, or without visuals and a live performance to at least mostly keep me entertained.

Engineers conclude season with losses

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Sara Melikian, Senior Reporter

After a difficult start to the season, the RPI women’s hockey team failed to make the ECAC playoffs for the first time in four seasons. Suffering losses to Princeton University and Quinnipiac University on the road, the Engineers conclude their season with a 9-21-4 overall record and a 6-14-2 league mark.

Friday’s match saw the Princeton Tigers skate away with a 2-1 victory in a close-fought game. Rensselaer opened the match in the first few seconds as freshman Taylor Mahoney netted her second goal of the year 23 ticks of the clock after puck drop. Mahoney skated alone down the left side of the ice before ripping a shot that beat Princeton senior goaltender Rachel Webber.

The Tigers held onto the puck for most of the period, and found the equalizer midway through the frame. Junior Alex Kinney connected with freshman Brianne Mahoney, who fired a shot on RPI freshman goaltender Kelly O’Brien. Although the rookie netminder made the initial save, Princeton sophomore Denna Laing grabbed the rebound and sent it past O’Brien for her eighth of the season.

Rensselaer failed to capitalize on a five-on-three advantage late in the first period, striking the post and getting denied by Webber with a glove save. Six minutes into the second frame, the Tigers took the lead with sophomore Sally Butler’s team-leading 13th goal of the season. The Engineers peppered Webber with a barrage of shots to end the frame, but the Princeton defense blocked most and kept the game 2-1.

With four minutes remaining in the game, junior Taylor Horton had the best opportunity to find the equalizer with a partial breakaway, but was stopped by Webber. The Engineers pulled O’Brien in favor of the extra skater with just over a minute to play, but it wasn’t enough to get another shot past Webber. O’Brien finished with 24 saves for the Engineers, while Webber posted 22 stops.

The following afternoon fared no better for Rensselaer, as Quinnipiac sophomore Kelly Babstock’s hat trick propelled the Bobcats to a 5-1 victory over the Engineers. Quinnipiac, who finished as the sixth seed in the ECAC playoffs with a 17-14-2 overall record and a 12-8-2 league mark, will play third-seeded Clarkson University this weekend.

Following a scoreless first period, the Bobcats struck first with junior Breann Frykas’ 11th goal of the season at 7:09 of the second frame. Following a slap shot by junior Regan Boulton from the point, Frykas was there to stuff home the rebound. Shortly after at 12:52, Babstock scored her first of three on the afternoon, and the eventual game-winner.

Babstock made it a 3-0 match at 15:56 with her 16th tally of the season. The sophomore intercepted a pass in the Bobcat’s offensive zone and swooped across the crease before burying the biscuit past RPI freshman goaltender Brianna Piper.

The Engineers managed to get on the scoreboard at 14:28 of the third period off sophomore Toni Sander’s sixth goal of the season. However, empty net goals from Babstock and senior Bethany Dymarczyk eliminated all chances of an RPI comeback. Quinnipiac junior goaltender Victoria Vigilanti made 18 stops in the win, while Piper blocked 17 attempts.

Rensselaer nearly made the ECAC playoffs, and although tied for the eighth and final playoff spot with Brown University, lost the tiebreaker against the Bears. Following a rebuilding season which saw many freshmen find success at the Division-I hockey level, the Engineers should come back as a force in the upcoming year.

Top Hat

Senate communications looks to improve

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Russell Brown/Christina Gilliland, Grand Marshal/Senate Director of Public Relations

Hello RPI! I hope everyone’s semester is going well. The Senate Cabinet has been hard at work on a Spring Senate Survey. The information collected will assist us in planning projects that will have the greatest impact on students. We are aiming to get this survey out to students in the next two weeks.

You’ll notice that this week’s Top Hat is written by Tina Gilliland ’15, the Senate director of public relations. As mentioned below, this is part of an initiative to increase awareness of the projects of Senate committees. I hope that you will find these articles interesting, as they will offer you some more detailed information about what projects the Senate is working on.

My name is Christina Gilliland. I serve as a Class of 2015 senator on the Student Senate and chair the Senate Communications Group as director of public relations for the Student Senate. I am writing part of today’s Top Hat as part of a new Senate initiative. This new project will feature updates from the different Senate committee chairs in the weekly Top Hat. The idea is to provide the opportunity for the leaders of the Senate to more effectively and directly convey their active committee projects to the RPI student body. This idea has been proposed as one of many ways to increase the lines of communication between the RPI student body and the Senate.

Communication has become a top priority for the Student Senate this semester. The diversity of voices in the weekly Top Hat will not be the only project facilitating the exchange of information. This past Friday in the DCC Great Hall, the Student Senate held the first of several “Meet Your Senator” events. Throughout the day, students had the opportunity to express complaints and suggest ideas for the continued improvement of RPI. The ideas from Friday’s event will be researched by the relevant committees to determine the best plan for moving forward. Additional events will be held throughout the semester to provide more opportunities to interact face to face with your student senators. Next week, the Senate will be hosting the semesterly “State of the Union” on Wednesday, February 29, from 7– 8:30 pm in the Rensselaer Union McNeil room. The event will feature a brief presentation by the newly appointed Grand Marshal Russell Brown ’14, and the introduction of the committee chairs of the Senate. The event is intended to be an avenue for the Student Senate to answer student questions as well as gain feedback. The Student Senate will also be hosting Pizza with the Cabinet on Thursday, March 29. Pizza with the Cabinet is a unique event which will feature an open forum in which students have the opportunity to converse with various members of the Rensselaer Presidential Cabinet and the academic deans.

These events are all part of the Senate’s initiative to drastically increase student involvement. The Senate is a representative body and depends on the input of its constituents. Communication is a combination of both the Senate informing students and the Senate receiving and fostering the concerns of students. Help us to help you, and let your voice be heard by the Senate. Consider joining one of the several Senate or Institute committees open to the entire student body, attending a Senate event, or simply sending an e-mail to the Senate at JustAsk@rpi.edu with any questions, concerns, or suggestions. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Sheer Idiocy improvise skillfully in Mother’s

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Nick Zieve, Staff Reviewer
Ethan Spitz/The Polytechnic
SHEER IDIOCY MEMBER CLARISSA HERMAN ’14 YELLS wildly in improv group’s performance in Mother’s last Friday night.

Improvisational acting never ceases to amaze me. I could never come up with such great humor and charm on the spot unless I was really drunk or really high. I went into Mother’s having seen Sheer Idiocy only once before, and their performance was just as hilarious as the previous time. The show started with a chorus from the Mother’s restroom of “We are not a cult,” football huddle style. The ten or so performers then ran out and grouped up by the stage for the first skit. This was suggested by a new member named Luke, and consisted of a bench (two chairs) on which one person would sit down and the next person would try to creep the former out enough to leave the bench. These included a stalker, someone with terrible breath, a terrorist, and someone asking for an alibi. The next skit was an expert argument on milkshakes, in which one side chorused that milkshakes will kill you, and the other constructed word-by-word that milkshakes were amazing.

Next was the direction of a movie called Hamsters in Space. The “director” cut in with various sudden suggestions, including a disco feel, which caused lines like “The hamsters are trying to stop the universal disco ball” and “I’ll fire my afro at them.” A couple typical “Indian Chief” style games came up, where one person left the room and then came back and had to act a part, in between which the members of Sheer Idiocy started in on random improv skits submitted previously by the audience. Some messages from their sponsors, Mentos and Big Frickin’ Pancakes, only helped to entertain the audience more. Finally, they ended with some standard improvisational acts. It looks like this is not Sheer Idiocy’s last performance of the season by a long shot, so I hope to see more amusing improv from the troupe in the near future.

Men’s basketball fails to make postseason

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Matthew Dawson, Senior Reporter

JUNIOR REDON QELLO EYES the hoop at the East Campus Arena in RPI’s 100-78 loss to Clarkson University on Saturday. With the loss, RPI fails to advance to the Liberty League playoffs.

Coming off losses to the Rochester Institute of Technology and Hobart College, the men’s basketball team was looking to finish the season on a high note with games against Skidmore College and Clarkson University. However, both would end up as defeats as RPI finished the year 10-14 overall and 7-9 in the Liberty League.

RPI started well against Skidmore as it scored the first seven points on its way to taking a 13-3 lead with just over five minutes played. However, Skidmore quickly got back into the game when RPI began missing three-pointers. Inaccuracy from beyond the arc let the Thoroughbreds take the lead only four minutes later and they extended the lead even further when RPI’s shooting failed to improve. The Engineers would finish the half 5-20 from three-point land and trailed 54-40 as a result.

After the break, not much changed for RPI as it continued to trail for the majority of the half. The team was shooting the ball better and got to the line more often than in the first half. The Engineers’ improved overall play was the reason that they slowly cut away at the Skidmore advantage. Finally, with 8:44 left in the game, RPI tied the match up at 70. It then took the lead on a pair of free throws by senior Matt Dixon. However, an 11-2 run by Skidmore gave the visitors a seven-point advantage and the lead for good.

The Engineers remained close for the duration of the contest but were not able to complete the comeback after the run by Skidmore. In the end, RPI would lose 102-96. Junior Jamie Zajac finished with 28 points, leading all scorers, and senior Matthew Pooley added another 26 in the losing effort.

In the season finale against Clarkson, RPI finished on a disappointing note. Five minutes into the game, the Golden Knights already had 10-point lead and wanted to increase it. RPI stayed close for a short period, but once again inaccurate shooting, this time from the whole floor, became the Engineers’ downfall as they finished the first half shooting 30 percent. As RPI’s shooting worsened throughout the half, Clarkson’s lead grew and grew. Eventually, once the break was reached, RPI was dealing with a 51-31 deficit.

The second half went much better, as RPI shot 43 percent. Unfortunately, Clarkson’s lead was already too much to overcome. Clarkson’s lead never shrunk below 20 points while hitting as many as 31. In the end, RPI only lost the second half by two points as the game finished Clarkson 100, RPI 78.

RPI finishes the season 10-14 overall with a 7-9 record in the Liberty League. The team hopes to improve on that for next season while improving its strengths and remedying its weaknesses.

Student Life VP creates board to advise on student experience

New board comes after Senate Student Life Committee dissolves

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Kirk Smith, Senior Reporter

Vice President of Student Life Timothy Sams is currently forming the Student Life Advisory Board. This comes in the wake of the recently disbanded Student Life Committee of the Student Senate.

This disbandment is the result of the Senate’s attempt to streamline, prioritize, and re-organize its efforts, explained Kyle Monahan ’12, senator and former chair of the Student Life Committee. He added that the Senate came to a consensus that the majority of projects it deals with have to deal with student life. Instead of having a committee committed to this purpose, senators “will be focusing their time into smaller, more specified committees,” which will take on the projects the Student Life Committee would have had.

The Advisory Board will cooperate with Sams to provide a student perspective on various initiatives and programs, those which are currently in place and those which will be. By doing this, students on the Board will be able to give feedback that the Office of Student Life would not otherwise receive, explained Robert Sobkowich ’12. “The inaugural Advisory Board will play a large role in shaping the direction and composition of the body moving forward,” he added. An example of initiatives that students could provide feedback on would be the Clustered Learning, Advocacy, and Support for Students initiative.

As Student Life covers a wide array of issues, the Board is expected to deal with topics “ranging from campus housing, student health and wellness, recreation and athletics, and more,” said Sobkowich. For this reason, Sams will choose students based primarily on their activities on campus. This will result, he hopes, in a Board that will reflect as many organizations and interests of the student body as possible. The Board will also be split into two boards: one that represents the interests of undergraduate students, and another that reflects the opinions of graduate students.

Admission to the Board is expected to be “highly competitive,” stated Sobkowich. Students will have the opportunity to directly influence the progression of student life decisions. “As such, applicants should be passionate about improving the student experience at Rensselaer and be ready to provide insights, feedback, and guidance to Dr. Sams and the Division of Student Life,” he added.

All students are encouraged to apply. These applications must be submitted by Monday, February 27 at http://goo.gl/UlcbZ. For more information, students can contact Sobkowich at sobkor@rpi.edu.

E-Board presents Union Annual Report 2012

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Nikki Gallant, President of the Union

This past Monday evening, the Senate Executive Board Liaison Jonathan Stack ’12 presented The Union Annual Report 2012 to the Student Senate. It was passed by a vote of 14-0-0, but it is important to note that the Rensselaer Union budget for fiscal year ’13 is not final until approved by the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Board of Trustees in the beginning of March 2012. The Student Activity Fee recommendations for the upcoming fiscal year are $582.00 for undergraduate students with $13.50 in class dues for a total of $595.50 and $309.50 for graduate students with $12.00 in class dues for a total of $321.50.

The Union Annual Report is a testament to the dedication and motivation of the student body at Rensselaer. There are over 200 clubs and organizations that call the Rensselaer Union home, and they are all managed by students. This Union is something unique to Rensselaer, and it offers students an opportunity to build on their experience outside the classroom. Rensselaer offers more than just an academic education.

RPI offers a well-rounded experience, rich with opportunities to grow as a professional leader and work effectively on a team. At the Union, students are the facilitators of change. When a club wants to travel, hold an event, or conduct a fundraiser, the students are the designers. Students use the many organizations supported by the Union to showcase creativity, take action, and explore all different kinds of interests. It is very hard to find a similar example of student initiative anywhere; the Rensselaer Union is truly a student-funded, student-run organization, and there is no better way to deliver exactly what students want.

Guided by professional staff members and past club officers, current club officers are taught how to interact with outside businesses, how to manage a budget, and how to project future expenses. Students are taught how to run a meeting, how to build a team, and more importantly, how to accomplish anything they set their minds to. These are the skills that allow students to become innovative leaders, and it begins at the Union.

The Union Annual Report is a large part of an initiative to create transparency in the budgeting process. This document is a showcase of our Union and it is an important insight into the way the Union has developed throughout the years. It illustrates how the Union continues to grow in conjunction with the changing student population. As you can see in the following pages, much effort is taken to make sure that the Student Activity Fee is being used appropriately, that is, to benefit the entire school community, and support the functioning of all aspects of the Union. This is by no means an easy job, and every year, hundreds of student leaders come together to create this budget for the Union. After club officers develop proposed budgets, the Union Executive Board and advisors review every budget line-by-line. The board strives for consistency, and is dedicated to using the Union’s money and resources to best benefit the students. We strive to create a budget that supports activities that will benefit the student body, and add culture, opportunity, and fun to campus life.

This year’s increase was a reasonable 3.57 percent increase for undergraduates and 3.54 percent increase for graduates. Many forces pushed for an increased budget. With lowered numbers in enrollment, the Executive Board faced a budgeting challenge that would carry forward with the lowered undergraduate student total. With the national decline in textbook sales, the Bookstore faced a revenue decrease. Considering these issues, along with increased costs for goods and services sprinkled throughout budgets, the minimal increase is a testament to conscientious budgeting from the club and administrative level right through to the Executive Board’s deliberation.

We are working towards ways for students to express their thoughts, opinions, and desires when they see what is happening with their money, or when decisions and events impact their lives here at RPI. You have a right as a member of the Rensselaer Union, an Activity Fee paying student, to understand how your Activity Fee will be distributed. I encourage you to explore the document for details, ask questions of your Student Government, and get involved. As a paying member of the Rensselaer Union, you deserve to know what is going on, and you deserve to have a voice. I urge you to take advantage of everything we have to offer and make the Rensselaer Union yours. A copy of the report can be found by contacting a club officer, checking Flagship, or emailing me at pu@rpi.edu. Please e-mail me with any questions or concerns.

onedotzero triumphantly returns to EMPAC

Posted on February 22, 2012 by David Hodson, Senior Reviewer

A SCENE FROM A SHORT FROM THE SAPPORO FILM FESTIVAL, TITLED “Thank You World.” The short represented a message of appreciation from Japan to the rest of the world for their generosity in response to the earthquake of March 2011.

onedotzero_adventures has done it again. The Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center put on yet another awesome onedotzero show in last Thursday’s poemetrics. poemetrics was a series of digital movies and animations inspired by various and sundry poems, and it was another amazing onedotzero show.

In the past, I have encouraged all you readers to go and see these onedotzero shows. onedotzero_adventures is an international film group that puts together amazing compilations of great digital shorts.

All of the digital shorts in poemetrics were very high quality, and very good. The only ones I took exception to were the series of shorts entitled “The Gum Thief—Bethany.” This series was well done, but really they were all just commercial snippets for a novel that is to be released soon.

Having said that, I’m going to move to just gushing about the shorts that I found to be amazing. “Apple,” by Leslie Barnes of the U.K., was hilarious. It was a tale about a man who was eating an apple and choking on a wayward chunk, and a bird who was doing the same thing. It was very simple, and still very hilarious, understated, and refined. I enjoyed the living hell out of it.

“Marvin,” by Mark Nute of the U.K., was also an absolute treat. It was a tale of a boy with a hole in his head, a hole the exact size of the boy’s common sense, which bounced out, allowing the boy to go on adventures. It was a very interesting and fun tale, and its associated poem was fantastic.

Daniel Boyle, also of the U.K., put together a short entitled “The Grand Old Duke of York,” which takes the childhood rhyme many of us are familiar with and turns it into a rather grim look on war from the vantage point of the nobility/politicians. The short was grim, but superbly done, and its commentary was also very well integrated and done. Overall, it was excellent.

This show was absolutely worth seeing, and supremely worth the cost of its tickets, especially at the student rate. onedotzero has the most amazing shows, and I could not be happier that EMPAC puts their work on. I cannot put it simpler than this: go see this, and every other onedotzero production. Even if the specific collection of animations and shorts isn’t your thing, you will still be wowed by the technical excellence and style of the show. It is a good time, and you will see some amazing work. For the record, the next onedotzero show EMPAC is putting on is on Thursday, March 1. Go forth, dear readers.

Rensselaer drops two-straight contests at home

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Sara Melikian, Senior Reporter

JUNIOR FORWARD C.J. LEE SKATES up the ice with the puck in the Engineers’ 6-2 loss to Princeton University on Saturday at the Houston Field House.

In the penultimate weekend of regular season play for the men’s hockey team, the Engineers dropped a pair of contests at the Houston Field House, sending the team back to the bottom of the league. Rensselaer fell in a 3-1 decision to Quinnipiac University on Friday night, and posted a 6-2 loss to Princeton University on Saturday’s Senior Night. The Engineers, who have one last chance this weekend to increase their record, are currently 8-21-3 overall on the year, including a 5-12-3 ECAC mark.

Friday’s match against the Quinnipiac Bobcats saw Rensselaer jump out to a 1-0 lead in the first period. Freshman Zach Schroeder skated past a pair of defensemen into the offensive zone and beat junior goaltender Eric Hartzell at 9:10. Sophomore Matt Tinordi earned the lone assist on the play.

It didn’t take long for the Bobcats to knot the game at one as junior Reese Rolheiser scored his second of the season off a long drive from the left faceoff circle 23 seconds later. With 15.1 seconds remaining in the period, the Bobcats took the lead with the eventual game-winning goal off the power play. Junior Zack Currie scored his eighth of the season to make it a 2-1 match, with the assists going to freshman Matthew Peca and junior Loren Barron.

The Bobcats cemented their lead at 16:12 of the second period after sophomore Cory Hibbeler deflected a low shot by Barron past junior goaltender Bryce Merriam. The two teams, who combined for only 11 shots in the third and final period, were unable to hit the back of the net to end the game with Quinnipiac on top 3-1. Both Merriam and Hartzell finished with 24 saves.

The next night fared no better for the Engineers as the Princeton Tigers skated to a 6-2 victory in the final game of the regular season at the Houston Field House. Three different Princeton skaters hit the back of the net in the road victory.

The Tigers’ first of the night came off the faceoff at 11:56 of the first period. Sophomore Jack Berger won the puck back to classmate Andrew Ammon, who was situated at the top of the left circle. Ammon’s shot snuck just inside the left pipe to give the visitors a 1-0 advantage.

However, just over four minutes later senior Mike Bergin found the equalizer with his first goal of the season. After a rebound popped out to the right point, the defenseman one-timed the shot past junior goaltender Mike Condon. Sophomore Johnny Rogic and senior Josh Rabbani earned the assists on the play, which came at 16:14.

Princeton exploded with a four-goal second period to earn the lead for good. Junior Rob Kleebaum started the charge at 3:36 with his eighth of the year. Just over 1:50 later, sophomore Andrew Calof gave the visitors a 3-1 advantage with his 10th of the season off a feed from senior Marc Hagel.

Rensselaer attempted to slow Princeton’s momentum as Rabbani added his first goal of the season at 6:53 to pull the Engineers within one. Senior Justin Smith connected with Rabbani in the low slot as the one-timer beat Condon to make it a 3-2 game. Freshman Curtis Leonard earned the secondary assist on the play.

However, that would be as close at RPI would get, as the Tigers added two more goals in the second period and another in the third. Calof’s second of the game came at 10:50 of the middle frame after flipping the puck over freshman goaltender Scott Diebold. The Tigers then converted on a 5-on-3 power play opportunity to make it a 5-2 match at 15:02 with Kleebaum’s second tally of the match.

Ammon closed out scoring in the game with his fourth of the season and second of the contest at 8:11 of the third period. All three RPI goaltenders saw action in the match, with Merriam blocking six shots, Diebold stopping 10, and senior Jeremy Coupal making one save. Condon posted 24 stops for the Tigers in the win.

The Engineers’ final games of the regular season will take place on the road this weekend. RPI plays at Colgate University on Friday, and Cornell University on Saturday, with both matches starting at 7 pm.
