Asian Food Festival – Tuesday you missed a chance to try some delicious Pacific Islander cuisine at the Asian Food Festival.

Back to Kindergarten – In preparation for the onslaught of finals week, SAC took you back to a simpler time of juice boxes and naps at the SAC After Hours: Back to Kindergarten night. The event featured relaxing arts and crafts like you used to make back in the day.

Movie Night – If you needed a break from studying for finals on Friday night, SAC presented you with the chance to catch The Social Network for free in the PSU.

Beartones 10 Year Anniversary Concert – The week wrapped up with the Beartones putting on their 10 Year Anniversary Concert in the PSU Theater in a show that featured some of the finest collegiate a cappella.

Though seeing as you probably don’t have easy access to a billion dollars, another cool option is David Fincher’s The Social Network. Starring Jesse Eisenberg (Adventureland, Zombieland, & the fantastic looking 30 Minutes or Less) alongside Andrew Garfield (soon to be The Amazing Spider-Man) and Justin Timberlake (*NSYNC & most of the better SNL sketches lately).

The Social Network was a contender in many Oscar categories this year including Best Adapted Screenplay for Aaron Sorkin (won), Best Director for David Fincher, Best Actor for Jesse Eisenberg, and Best Picture. The film chronicles the creation of Facebook in the Harvard dorm of Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg) and the ensuing legal battle surrounding the site.

The film will be played Friday night in the PSU Food Court at 9 PM.

Don’t forget to check out the Student Film Festival in the PSU Theater tonight at 6 PM as part of May Day.

Ride With the Devil – The Springfield-Greene County Public Libraries held a screening of Ang Lee’s Ride With the Devil in the PSU on Monday night. If you missed it or feel like you need a little more Civil War action then come by the Electronic Arts Showcase on May 9th for South of Black Drink Crier, a short film produced as a senior thesis project for a group of EA students. (SouthOfBlackDrinkCrier.com)

No Strings Attached – Is it just me or has Natalie Portman been in everything over the past few months? If you missed your chance at catching her alongside Ashton Kutcher in No Strings Attached fret not; the movie comes out on DVD & Blu-Ray May 10th. So come by Bearhouse Entertainment and pick up a copy a week from Tuesday.

Through the Lens: Discovering Diverse Photographic Visions – Last week was your final chance to take a look at some of the artwork created by advanced photography students in the PSU gallery.

Texas Hold’em – Finally, last Thursday in the PSU food court SAC After Hours held a Texas Hold’em tournament. Fun and great prizes were up for grabs. For a full list of SAC’s future events check out their calendar.
