New quick itineraries to destinations such as Spain, Morocco, England and Thailand are designed to provide students international experience and maximize time on campus after two years in a pandemic

WASHINGTON, D.C. – April 12, 2022 – WorldStrides, the leader in educational travel experiences, has created a brand new set of condensed itineraries for students to experience Europe, Asia and other popular destinations. Break Escapes trips are 7-10 day adventures led by local tour guides and are reinventing the overseas study abroad experience, providing insider access to the worlds’ top destinations.

“We designed BreakEscapes to occur during winter, summer, and spring breaks to cater to students who want an international experience and still want to have time for a full semester on campus or an internship during their scheduled breaks from school,” said Brian DeMoss, head of higher education marketing at WorldStrides. WorldStrides listened to feedback from their student travelers who have missed out on so much the last two years, both studying abroad and through on-campus living, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Destinations for Break Escapes include: Spain (Madrid & Barcelona), England (London), Costa Rica (San Jose & Tortuga Island), Fiji (Naviti & Beachcomber), Australia (Sydney & Cairns), Morocco (Fez & Merzouga), France (Paris), and Thailand (Chiang Mai & Krabi).

​​Break Escapes is different from other study abroad experiences – each trip is led by a local guide, familiar with each destination inside and out. Students will also stay in three- or four-star hotels rather than a hostel. Students can refer their friends, classmates and peers on campus for a reduced rate, and can even request the same roommate(s) for the duration of their trip. The fee for each seven-day, six-night adventure varies by location, but each includes premium hotel accommodations each night, most meals, exclusive cultural excursions led by local guides, and so much more. Students are responsible for their own roundtrip airfare. The deadline to apply is Sunday, May 1, 2022.

Students can learn more about BreakEscapes and begin planning their adventure here.

Robert Hellyer, author and associate professor of history at Wake Forest University, discussed his new book “Green with Milk and Sugar: When Japan Filled America’s Tea Cups” at Doheny Memorial Library Monday. Hellyer’s book navigates a dedicated history to green tea and provides a personal narration of his family’s tea-processing factories.

The event, co-sponsored by USC Libraries, the USC Department of History and green tea company ITO EN North America marks the first in-person talk for the Shinso Ito Center for Japanese Religions and Culture since March 2020. 

Hellyer, whose family shares a personal relationship with tea through their tea processing factories in the Japanese port cities of Shizuoka and Kobe, said his maternal grandmother reserved green tea for guests and coffee for Hellyer because green tea was a sophisticated, elevated beverage. 

“As my grandmother and I sat on lawn chairs savoring the aroma of freshly cut grass, she often talked of her time in Japan in the early 1930s as the wife of a tea merchant,” wrote Hellyer in his book. “Much of what propelled me to write this book was a desire to delve beyond the anecdotes from those summer days and to learn more about the worlds of my grandmothers.”

Tea classifications, Hellyer said, can be discerned by oxidation levels and is categorized as green tea — subcategorized into sencha, bancha and matcha — oolong tea and black tea, the latter the most oxidized of the teas. Hellyer said there is a presupposition that America has no standard tea conduct, but green tea was at the center of it.

“Many American families, particularly young girls, will be encouraged to have a tea set or have tea time, but we don’t have coffee time in the same way,” Hellyer said. “Starbucks has its own nice, everyday elegance, but it’s not the sophistication.”

Tea consumption patterns in the 1850s demonstrated that American consumers and even former United States presidents continued to drink green tea following the Boston Tea Party and the American Revolution, Hellyer said. Sentiment for green tea didn’t wane until the postwar era, when anti-Japanese and anti-Chinese views spawned from propaganda.

“While Britons preferred black teas, after 1800, in the United States, green tea came to hold an aura of sophistication and was more widely consumed,” Hellyer said. “Green tea was sold at higher prices than black tea.”

Indian Ceylon, a competitor to Japan Tea — the first national brand of green tea in the U.S. — sought to sell its black tea to the U.S. market following a successful introduction into British society. Indian Ceylon altered Americans’ tastes from green to black teas with a strategy that involved negative advertising with racist overtones presenting both Japanese and Chinese green teas as “dirty, dangerous and fraudulent,” Hellyer said. 

“These advertisements had some impact in reducing American consumption of Japanese green tea but not immediately,” Hellyer said. “That’s because the war disrupted Indian Ceylon exports, so Japan was able to export more tea to Britain and other European markets.”

In bolstering black tea’s reputation, Indian Ceylon contended that their tea was better quality because it was picked and refined by white individuals, which had long-term impacts on American consumption of Japanese green tea, Hellyer said. 

Rebecca Corbett, co-head of the East Asian Library, associate University librarian and moderator of the event, said that, amid rising anti-Asian hate regarding coronavirus origins, conversations about historical instances of anti-Japanese and anti-Chinese perception that parallel modern trends are crucial to observing positive examples of interaction between North America and Asian countries.  

“A lot of Japanese Americans found it difficult, initially, to live in America and to not have that negative associations because of their heritage,” Corbett said. “We are looking at the economic and cultural history of tea as a product in America … the popularity of it over time and people’s image of Japan and how that can be bound up … in Japan as a branding symbol.”

Lindsay O’ Neill, who attended the lecture with students from her “General Education Seminar in Social Analysis: Drunk History, or How Beverages Changed the World” class, said beverages can tell a significant story about Westward expansion and colonization facilitated by corporations.  

“It’s a smaller way to look at these long term changes,” said O’Neill, an associate professor of history at the Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences. “Hopefully, it makes people think, and USC students think more critically about what’s on their plate.”

Issay Matsumoto, who asked a question about advertisements’ role of promoting sencha as a “health product” to stimulate export numbers, said he attended the talk because of his intrigue with tea, which stems from his desire to learn about Japanese products’ influence in Asian markets. 

Depending on the geopolitics of the time, tea can be culturally valued or devalued depending on its origin, Matsumoto said. From the experience, Matsumoto drew takeaways about consumption and production patterns across waters from Hellyer’s research and personal anecdotes.

“You can tell histories close to you because the speaker’s own family history is linked to this. So, you can tell stories about your own family in really big, interesting ways,” Matsumoto said.

That’s a Wrap: March movie releases you might have missed

Emily Bi/File

For better or for worse, March is Oscars month. With nearly all of the month’s film-related whisperings being subsumed by the awards ceremony spectacle, public attention seems to have been diverted away from recent releases.

A24 came out with a strong showing this month, releasing multiverse thriller “Everything Everywhere All at Once” and seventies-tinted horror flick, “X.” Hulu brought Sundance standout “Fresh” to the streaming site, along with the star-studded “Deep Water.” But the biggest release to light up the silver screen was Robert Pattinson-fronted “The Batman,” once again captivating audiences with Bruce Wayne’s exploits.

Whether or not you got the chance to catch these movies in theaters or from your couch, film beats Joy Diamond and Emma Murphree are here with four more March releases available to scope out.

“Turning Red”

“Turning Red” is nothing short of phenomenal. A hilarious and painfully relatable story about growing pains and defying familial expectation, Pixar’s latest brilliantly depicts the nuances of tweenhood. Just as important and well-executed is the film’s representation of the Chinese immigrant experience. Though the film teems with elements of Chinese culture, “Turning Red” isn’t about being Chinese-Canadian; “Turning Red” simultaneously celebrates and normalizes its characters’ heritage, a much-needed effort.

Directed by Domee Shi, who also directed Academy Award-winning Pixar short “Bao,” “Turning Red” tells the story of 13-year-old Meilin Lee (Rosalie Chiang), who transforms into a giant red panda when experiencing strong emotions due to a hereditary gift (perhaps, a curse) that is bestowed upon the women in her family when they come of age. Though this may sound absurd, the film beautifully uses the family’s power to explore accepting individual differences and growing into one’s own. The film gently reminds viewers of their own awkward phases, balancing the cringe that may be evoked with lots of empathy. “Turning Red” is an important watch for young women, parents and everyone, imbuing lessons of learning and healing

“All My Friends Hate Me”

“All My Friends Hate Me” distills British humor, class critique and hallucinatory stratagems into a robust yet compact 90 minute jaunt. Leisure class millennials are easy targets, endlessly insufferable in their moral posturing and Patagonia vest-clad activism — but director Andrew Gaynord goes beyond just finger-wagging or self-congratulation. 

Our protagonist, Pete (Tom Stourton), is the poster boy for liberal navel-gazing. He’s middling, insecure and scarcely able to string together two sentences without bringing up his volunteer work with African refugees. Despite these objectionable qualities, his relatable social awkwardness, coupled with the way the camera glues itself to his person, occasionally endear him. 

Gaynord crops together a sparse cast for his debut feature, which centers a group of university friends reconciling how they all have (and haven’t) changed since their lives disentangled. They stay at a secluded country estate for Pete’s birthday, which lends a strict, physical claustrophobia to their already hyper-insular and stifling reunion. 

Between pent-up politically incorrect outbursts, narcissistic delusions of a nefarious conspiracy and fully realized empathetic characters, Gaynord holds in his hands one of the smartest, most cringe-inducing satires of recent memory.

“Rescued by Ruby”

Humanity may never stop making dog movies.

Films featuring man’s best friends are generally well received, safe choices for studios which never fail at achieving their simple goal of delivering cuteness to viewers’ screens. “Rescued by Ruby” is one of these feel-good films. Based on a true story, the film follows Daniel O’Neil (Grant Gustin), a Rhode Island state trooper who adopts and trains shelter dog Ruby with dreams of joining the K-9 search and rescue team. In true dog movie fashion, the pair’s companionship fulfills each other’s needs.

“Rescued by Ruby” warms the heart; it’s not very deep or thought-provoking, but it succeeds at its job. The story skews a little corny, but the film avoids being treacly. The characters are certainly not the most complex, but their positivity and determination make them likable nonetheless. “Rescued by Ruby” does exactly what it sets out to do, and it does it more enjoyably and believably than a lot of its peers. The movie satisfies a very important need viewers demand, directly and indirectly, from films — comfort. A great lighthearted family film, “Rescued by Ruby” should be consumed and appreciated like hot tea on a rainy day.

“Windfall”

Chamber pieces are hot right now. While “All My Friends Hate Me” takes this now-cliche pandemic-era filmmaking formula and makes lemonade, Netflix’s “Windfall,” starring Jesse Plemons, just makes lemons. Or Plemons. 

Alongside Plemons’ arrogant tech CEO, Lily Collins stars as his outwardly docile wife. Though Collins (of “Emily in Paris” fame) seems like a strange fit for a gritty, Hitchcockian drama, she proves up to the task as her character undergoes a dramatic transformation, repressing her emotions to the point of a psychotic break. Jason Segel, playing a sort of everyman type, disrupts this idyllic portrait of domestic bliss when he (more inconveniently than maliciously) breaks into their vacation home. The couple finds him, and a sloppy, ill-formed robbery ensues. 

There’s no denying that “Windfall” drags. However, its lethargy is both a blessing and a curse. The pacing, coupled with director Charlie McDowell’s typical vaguely anti-capitalist polemic, renders the film tiresome for a good chunk of its runtime. Yet, “Windfall” asserts its merit with a killer third act as what was once done at a simmer boils over in a tsunami of catharsis.

NEW YORK – April 11, 2022 – Smile Train, the world’s largest cleft-focused organization, is pleased to announce a new college scholarship available for cleft-affected American high school students entering college. Two scholarship recipients will be selected by a Smile Train appointed College Scholarship Committee by sharing how their cleft is their superpower and demonstrating […]

Throughout history, students turned to peaceful protest as a popular method of getting things done. Such was the case on Oct. 18, 1968, when Colorado State University students held a “beer-in” at the Lory Student Center to request that the University allow the sale of alcoholic beverages in the Ramskeller coffee shop, which was located in the basement of the LSC. 

They were successful in their efforts, and with approval from the Fort Collins City Council, the Lory Student Center was granted the license to serve 3.2% beer. 

On May 2, 1969, the Ramskeller Pub & Grub evolved past a coffee shop and began selling beer. 

Ramskeller is now staffed entirely by students except for General Manager Pete Andrews, according to an email from Andrews. Andrews has been working at Ramskeller for over 11 years. 

“We typically serve a few Fermentation Science & Technology-brewed beers here at the Ramskeller.” -Pete Andrews, general manager at Ramskeller Pub & Grub

Andrews has seen changes to the Ramskeller over his time of employment, including LSC renovations that granted the pub “improved facilities, (an) expanded seating area, updated AV technology and a brewery,” Andrews wrote. 

The brewery referenced is the Ramskeller Brewery, “which provides (Fermentation Science and Technology) students with real-life experiential training,” according to an email from Jeffrey Callaway, associate director of the Fermentation Science and Technology program at CSU. 

The FST program first began in the fall of 2013. 

In his email, Callaway shared two mission statements of the FST program:

1. “To provide high-quality education that results in employment in the fermentation industry or entry into graduate-level academic programs.
2. “To work collaboratively across the Colorado State University campus and industry to provide services and research and development opportunities to the food and beverage fermentation industry.”

According to Callaway’s email, several junior- and senior-level courses in the program are run and developed by experts in the food and beverage fermentation industry.

“Students learn how to apply the scientific principles they learn in their chemistry, biology, physics and other STEM courses to a real-world production and manufacturing setting,” Callaway wrote. “Although we are not a brewing program, we do use the brewing process as a model to teach critical thinking, process flow, etc., which are translatable skills to nearly any industry or endeavor that our alumni may find themselves in.”

“It is somewhat common for a student union to have a pub on site, but ours is the only one with a brewery,” Andrews wrote. 

“We typically serve a few Fermentation Science & Technology-brewed beers here at the Ramskeller,” Andrews wrote. “They are created by CSU’s FST professors and students. … The ‘Skeller and brewhouse will collaborate on which beer styles we choose to brew in-house.”

In addition to serving Ramskeller Brewery creations, Andrews noted that 20 beers and ciders from outside breweries and distributors are on rotation on the Ramskeller menu. 

“For our guests who are not old enough to imbibe yet, [Ramskeller has] an entire menu of nonalcoholic options,” Andrews wrote. 

Living up to its full title of “Pub & Grub,” the Ramskeller has a menu of traditional bar food, including pizza, chicken wings and mozzarella sticks.

“Some members of the campus community might not even know that we serve food here,” Andrews wrote. 

The Ramskeller is open on weekdays from noon to 7 p.m.
