This year marks 10 years for Spit That!, IC’s only spoken word poetry club.  This milestone was celebrated last Friday night at Spit That!’s annual showcase.  Ten of Spit That!’s dedicated poets prepared and performed poetry at the showcase alongside special guest Jaylene Clark Owens, the woman who founded Spit That! In September 2006.  The room was full of emotions as each poet took the floor and wowed the crowd.  Congrats on another successful year!

Congratulations to Colleges Against Cancer for leading yet another successful Relay for Life at Ithaca College!  The event took place this past Saturday, and between online donations, registration for the event, and cash donations made the night of, the student organization was able to raise over $50,000 to donate to the American Cancer Society to be put towards cancer research.  The event itself was also a huge success keeping relayers entertained for 12 hours straight with tons of great performances, music, games, and more.
