Keeping in time with the Mills Community since 1917

The glow of a grinning pumpkin and the crisp autumn wind can only mean one thing: Halloween is coming. And that means it's the time of the season to scare yourself silly. However, if you're in the mood for something a little more realistic, how about trying a real live ghost hunt this year?
San Francisco has a few ghost tours to choose from.
Mills College will be the first college in the nation to offer a graduate degree in book art and creative writing.
Mills' undergraduate book art program is already well known throughout the country for its variety and number of book art classes.
Coordinators recently announced there will be a new master of fine arts degree in book art and creative writing.
In response to student complaints on the lack of dining options at night, Bon Appetit has shifted the hours of the Tea Shop Grill and Café Suzie's.
The Grill is now open Monday-Friday from 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. and Sunday from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. The Tea Shop is open an additional half-hour on weekdays.
She & Him is the brainchild of Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward. The two met last year while recording a song for a soundtrack and realized they enjoyed collaborating. Although Deschanel has in the past focused on her acting career (you might know her as a high strung ex-girlfriend in "Weeds" or "Elf" with Will Ferrell) she has actually been singing for years, writing her own songs and recording them in the privacy of her home.
Karen Anderson, a Mills alumna and businesswoman, asked her audience what they would like to get out of her Oct. 27 seminar entitled "$mart Woman." Almost twenty people in the Student Union raised their hands and revealed that Mills women need answers about money.
With pitch-perfect comedy, hilariously heartbreaking characters and an almost uncomfortably honest approach to its teenage subject matter, "Rocket Science" may just be your new favorite movie. Sure it doesn't have the all-star celebrity line-up of "Knocked Up" or the multitude of penis pictures of "Superbad," but it has a poignancy that is more winning than any comedy this year.
Aven Ascher is a difference person when she's dancing.
