  • Petrofiction Review: Oil on Water
    Here’s my review of Oil on Water by Helon Habila – a petrofiction novel which won The Commonwealth Prize and Caine Prize. For context, petrofiction stems from petroleum and fiction. A specific text that focuses on petroleum culture in political economics and environmental impact. Although Habila’s novel begins with a journalist investigating a kidnapping, the […]

Local undergrad hangouts have different appeal

*Junction– A two-story complex that features an intimate dance floor on the second floor. Tux’s, as it is known locally, can only hold up to 160 people, but on most weekend nights, features a DJ who spins dance-fans dancingest dance songs. Bar hoppers hoping to hear Neil Diamond might be disappointed. But if you like top 40, frat-rock, Junction/Tux’s might be your place.

Uptown–Perhaps the most versatile of the clubs in Bowling Green. Tuesday nights are “Drag Night” and Wednesday nights are “Goth Night.” The dance floor at Uptown is a very sizable 5,000 square feet and can hold up to 230 people. For those that are not down with the dancing, downstairs at Downtown features pool tables, air hockey tables, and two very, very long bars. But it’s dark in there, so those who aren’t fans of drag queens, watch out!

*Skybar– If you’re 18, a female, love to dress up, love Nelly and are inclined to freak, shake and whatever superlative use to describe dancing, Skybar might just be the closest thing to heaven. The dance floor, the largest in town, exceeds 6,000 square feet and can hold up to 450 people. But under-agers, beware of the bevy of bouncers that are perched on high platforms overlooking the dance floor. If you have a drink in hand, make sure it’s a Coke and not a RUM and Coke. They will catch you and you will be thrown out. For the swanky swingers out there who prefer hitting on girls or boys instead of dancing with girls or boys, Skybar features several roomy booths. The booths are so big, customers have room to set their drinks down and put their foot in their mouths.
