Pablo Setien is a current Kishwaukee student, but is originally from Valparaiso, Chile.

Setien started his contact with America when his family was being a host for American exchange students while he was growing up. 

Just this semester, the team has reformed with a 10 girl team. They practice every Monday, Friday and Sunday in preparation for their performances. Some of the dancers admitted to the difficulty of the Sunday meetings, but have found that the University Plaza is a good alternative to the empty school.

With two to three times more sales happening at the new Kish Cafe will be hiring a new employee in the near future.  The new face is to help quicken the pace at the ever extending lines at the cashiers counter during the busier hours of the day.

One of the more popular items that students seem to purchase is the cheese fries, and also the sales of pre-made salads have gone up.

Local art student Emily Greer talks about her artistic career so far.

“Ever since I could remember, I’ve worked with whatever I could get my hands on.” says Emily Greer, a current student at Kishwaukee College majoring in Art. 

The PTK Banned Book Club meets every two months to discuss a book they have chosen to all read, and on March 30 they met to discuss American Psycho.

A small group of PTK members and a few non-PTK members showed up to the meeting in the B102 meeting room. The atmosphere was light and friendly despite the book they chose to discuss.

The International Committee held its Annual Potato Bar Fundraiser on March 15, 2011 in the Kishwaukee College Atrium to raise money for student scholarships for the study abroad program.

The International Committee has been helping the school “add international flavor” and sponsoring foreign exchange and the study abroad program for 10 years says Chuck Walters, a current member of the committee.

First off, I would like to admit I am probably addicted to the Internet. Secondly, my house is located somewhere between the Twilight Zone and the Stone Age. We have multiple objects from every era, along with having dial-up Internet. So when I heard last year, that Kishwaukee College had wireless high speed, I jumped for joy and brought my  “We only got you this for college” laptop, which I affectionately named Danny.
