Six strangers, a lonely farmhouse, surrounded by brain-eating zombies – what could go wrong?
Set in 1968, the play is a horror parody of the classic zombie movie. The comedy re-creates live on stage the original film in the first act. In the second act, it presents a series of alternative endings which hilariously tests the question: Can anyone survive a night of the living dead?

Friday September 17, 2021 is the official federal holiday recognizing the ratification of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787

In recognition of this important day, we welcome the ASU community to celebrate the U.S. Constitution.

● Win a prize! The first 50 entrants who score correctly on at least 9 of the 12 questions will be awarded a $5.00 Starbucks gift card.

● Make some time to test your knowledge of, and learn more about, the United States Constitution, the document that establishes the living framework for our government and influences our daily lives here in the United States.

Good Trouble: How have the Amendments to the Constitution changed the nation?

Twenty seven. That is the number of times the U.S. Constitution has been amended from its ratification in 1788. Today we celebrate Constitution Day, the day the Constitution was sent by the Constitutional Convention to the states for ratification. Ten of those amendments, the Bill of Rights, came in the first three years. For a document of such brevity (about the length of a college term paper), only 17 times has it had to be amended to keep pace with a rapidly changing world. Two amendments cancel each other out, leaving 15. This presentation will examine the amendment process and how they have reshaped the original document, with an eye on the issues most relevant in today’s world.

Join us in recognizing this momentous event at 12 p.m. in McDaniel 101. Free pizza will be served!
