***New Dudley Art Class, "Drawing in the Sackler Galleries"-- a few spots
left! *
The new five-week Dudley arts class will meet on Saturdays, 2-4:30pm, in the
Sackler Galleries, from March 26-April 23rd. We will be sketching from
sculptures and paintings from the Sackler's collections. The course, open to
Dudley House members, is limited to 15 students so that there will be time
for individualized instruction. The cost for the course is $25, which needs
to be paid in full at the time of registration. The cost of materials for
the course will be approximately $20 for drawing paper and pencils. A few
spaces remain; register now in the Dudley House office. Contact Ivanna Yi (*

*Screening of Inception (2010)*
Thursday, March 24th @ 7pm, Graduate Student Lounge
Oscar-nominated for Best Picture, this unnerving sci-fi thriller stars
Leonardo DiCaprio as Dom Cobb, who earns a tidy sum infiltrating the dreams
of corporate titans to steal their most closely held secrets. Tapped by a
rich industrialist for a job involving a rival's heir, Cobb marshals a team
of specialists that includes his right-hand man (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), an
architecture student (Ellen Page) and a chemist. Contact Charlie
(marcrum@fas) for more information.
