10 Great Student Film Festivals For Fans and Filmmakers
Let’s face it: many student films are, well, not that good. They’re invariably about suicide or troubled twentysomethings or one of a million other ideas that have been completely covered in the past 100 hundred years of movie-making. But for every few (or few dozen) that don’t live up to the hype, there are those that announce the presence of new talents and serve as calling-cards for the blockbuster directors of tomorrow. Some of today’s biggest filmmakers, from Christopher Nolan to George Lucas, got their start making student films. Because of that, student film festivals are amazing places to see new works and discover the women and men who will eventually graduate to bigger and better things. Whether you’re a student looking for ways to break into the fest circuit or a movie lover looking for new ways to experience film, these student-focused festivals should be on your radar.

Extreme Innocence: Is there a Practical Solution to America's Dilemma over Abortion?
Leon S. Peters Ethics Lecture presents:
Extreme Innocence: Is there a Practical Solution to America's Dilemma over Abortion?
with moderator Lloyd Steffen
Date: Wednesday, March 23, 2011
Time: 12-1 PM
California State University, Fresno
Alice Peters Auditorium (University Business Center)
The abortion debate focuses on beliefs about fetal status. The concept of fetal innocence is critical for clarifying the difference between moral and religious viewpoints. Conflicting moral and religious perspectives on innocence points toward First Amendment protection and a practical “solution” to the abortion debate.
Lloyd Steffen is Professor of Religion Studies, University Chaplain, and Director of the Center for Dialogue, Ethics and Spirituality at Lehigh University. He is the author of seven books, including Life/Choice: The Theory of Just Abortion, He has served as representative to the U.N. for the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice.
