For SNL’s Michael Che, Comedy is a sport; John F. Kennedy’s Affairs; The cast of Wicker get sappy
What’s it like to be a student—or a faculty member—at Cornell right now? “I think many are really exhausted,” associate professor Juno Salazar Parreñas tells Savannah Walsh. And not just because of the gang rape case that’s ignited fury on campus and off—but because in the weeks since Cornell student journalists broke news of alleged victim Jane Doe’s lawsuit against the school, campus has been inundated with reporters like, well, Savannah. “Due to the overwhelming media presence we have seen on campus in recent days, reporters are currently not allowed to do man-on-street interviews or videos on Cornell’s campus,” Cornell University Relations wrote her in an email. But if students have nerves about speaking on school grounds, those on the peripheries of campus don’t face the same dilemma. Read on to see what they had to say to her.
Elsewhere, Kenneal Patterson checks out the premiere of the Olivia Colman/Alexander Skarsgård-as-a-basket-man movie Wicker, and Chris Murphy catches up with Michael Che—who isn’t ready to leave SNL just yet. Maybe. More tomorrow.
