Thoughts on My Day in Wonderland Macy Allen, Contributing Writer It happens once every four years. Meredith is transformed into Wonderland and students are invited to join Alice on her adventures. It is a wonderful journey and with any journey, there are many thoughts that run through your head. The Journey to Wonderland 1. Class is almost over. Class is almost over. 2. Class is over. 3. T-Minus six and a half hours until Alice. 4. Wow, we’re close to the door. 5. The line isn’t that long. 6. Just keep sittin’, just keep sittin’, just keep sittin’, sittin’, sittin’. 7. Is it too early for Papa Johns? 8. Papa Johns is on its way. 9. Wow, the line’s grown. 10. PIZZA! 11. Does anyone want to play cornhole? #TailgateAlice2016 12. Guess not. 13. Woo, Cornhole! 14. Only three more hours until the doors open!
15. Ooo it got cold quick. 16. My butt hurts. 17. Cold 18. Cold. 19. Cold! 20. COLD! 21. I can’t feel my toes. 22. Man, I did not prepare well for this. 23. Part of the excitement of Alice in Wonderland is that it is a complete secret from students, and only occurs every four years. Alas, that gives us so little time to enjoy it, so for one last hurrah for Alice and Co. we contacted many faculty and staff involved with the tradition to ask what interesting facts or secrets they could share.

Dr. Jack Huber, retired head of the Psychology department, played the White Rabbit from 1976 until 2012. “This past Alice was the first one in almost forty years that didn’t have him in it!” Roles in Alice must be handed down
from the previous performer to the next generation. Most of the leading Alice roles begin rehearsing a couple of weeks prior to the first show. Everyone begins in earnest the week before and comes together every night the week of the run. The cast members of Alice put a great deal of effort towards changing the original script to suit the times. Some prefer to adlib, and others plan thoughtfully. During the week many changes were made because something they found funny (i.e. the Cat “photobombed” a “selfie” with the Duchess and Alice) didn’t work out timing wise and had to be cut. The Duchess said “Some characters, like Donald Trump, were perfect given the current political climate!” .

Are We “Wifey” Material? Brooke Mayo, Staff Writer In honor of our special anniversary year, The Herald staff has decided to dust off the old newspapers of our college’s past and bring to light what former Meredith women have written. This is the second of a series of excerpts from long-forgotten MC newspapers, and we hope that the Meredith community enjoys a blast from our very own past as much as we have enjoyed gathering this information for you. An excerpt from “Women’s College Favored to Win Over Coed Schools in Husband-Catching Race” by Ann Ipock on November 7, 1952. “Some people (parents of eligible girls especially) look at coeducational schools as the modern American version of old-fashioned European and Oriental system of the marriage broker. How did this idea grow? Well, it appears that most of these people assume that campuses where young men and women work, play, and share mutual interests and acquaintances are mating paradises. This thought also runs parallel with the idea that to enroll a girl in an all-girl college is like placing her in a convent. It is a known fact that men of our generation are looking for certain qualities in a wife and do not want her
to be helpless. This is the chief jump women’s colleges have over ‘coed’ schools in the husband-catching race. In an all-girls school, it is the girls who make the decisions. They are the ones who decide how, where, and when to do something. In a ‘coed’ school most of the thinking and problem-solving are done by men.” As women at Meredith College, we have pretty much heard it all. We’ve been asked how our MRS. Degrees are coming along, if we are all raging feminists, if we actually live as though we are in a convent, and if we all have homosexual desires. These types of questions do not necessarily anger us, but rather confuse and annoy us. We live in the 21st century, and yet we have to justify why we attend an allwomen’s institution. Not only that, but we also have to deal with the constant questioning by the outside world as well as our own community about whether or not we are acceptable prospects for marriage. Marriage – or the idea of marriage – for the Meredith community is a touchy topic. It is natural for women to want to marry, and we don’t want to hear that we aren’t viewed as acceptable prospects. At the same time, though, is it fair to say that we are more suited to be good wives compared to females that attend co-ed institutions? Is this
even true? Females at all-women and co-ed colleges receive different types of educations and influences. It is arguable that women who attend same-sex colleges are more focused and are more eager to fight gender stereotypes, but that cannot be claimed as fact with every situation. Consequently, how much does a woman truly change with the allwomen’s college background? Personally, I am more confident in my abilities and my talents than I ever was before attending college. I am more willing to state my opinion, despite controversy, and I am also more likely to sign up to volunteer or lead various activities. However, I’m not entirely convinced that I changed only because of the type of college I decided to attend. There’s no telling if I would have decided to major in something that is typically expected of males if I was at a co-ed college, and I can’t say with a clear conscious that I wouldn’t have found myself in a different setting. I don’t know, and I never will. To some degree, it is understandable for the outside world to have questions about the type of environment that we as women at a same-sex institution surround ourselves in. It could be intimidating to date and ultimately marry a woman that doesn’t allow her
life to succumb to anything patriarchalrelated, as we have been encouraged to not take or accept anything less that we know we deserve. However, are we truly more marriagematerial if we haven’t made males or partners a factor in our day-to-day decisions? While this idea differs for some students, I personally have not made another person a priority of mine for several years. Does that make me marriage-material at this point in my life? Probably not. Does this make me marriage-material for some point in my future? Sure, as long as I marry a person that doesn’t mind an independent, head-strong woman as a wife. It’s important to note that a woman’s worth is not and should not be measured by what her man or partner sees in her. While it’s completely natural for us to want to marry, it is also important for us to recognize that we have value outside of matrimonial ties and responsibilities. We all have goals in life that we wish to accomplish, and it’s perfectly okay if getting married isn’t a priority right now. It’s also perfectly okay if it is. Our life stories aren’t meant to have the same plots, and we are only fooling ourselves if we try to fit into a mold that society expects of us.

News Anonymous Angel: Worst Valentine’s Days Ever Seung Pang, Staff Writer It is that time of year when people are divided into two groups: the crazy-in-love or the super-single. People get butterflies anticipating this day ... or they mark this day as an excuse to binge drink. This article is for those of us celebrating the 14th as the Single Awareness Day. A few MC girls wrote in to us dishing their worst ever V-Day stories. Enjoy! Drive Baby, Drive “My ex-boyfriend and I met in Math class couple of years ago. Soon after we started dating, I started to see his flaws; he was always cocky to me and my friends, and he was a proud 22-year-old mama’s boy living with his parents. I didn’t like him that much, but I stayed with him because I was too insecure to break up with him. As the Valentine’s Day was getting close, he started bragging that he has something mind-blowingly romantic planned. On the V-day, he called me in the afternoon, ‘Hey baby, check the backseat of your car!’ I found a piece of flashcard saying, the Valentine’s Day scavenger hunt, which asked me to go the place we first hung out: his best friend’s apartment. I drove there to get another flashcard from his best friend, ‘Go to where we first kissed’: the parking lot in front of the gym I used to go to. I went there to find
another flashcard, “Go to where we first met”: school. Again, I went to school on my day off to find another flashcard, ‘Go to where we first worked out together’: the gym that I just stopped by. Finally, I went to the gym again. And one of the trainers gave me the last flashcard, ‘Meet me at the Cold Stone at 8 p.m.’ When I got to the Cold Stone, I realized that I had been driving for over 2 hours while he was eating dinner at his parents house. I broke up with him the next day because I couldn’t put up with his stupid narcissism anymore. He was so upset at the fact that I broke up with him. Then, he posted on Facebook, ‘Just broke up, moving on starts with 25 beers.” Video Games
on a Friday, so it was the perfect opportunity to go out and have a late night without worrying about the next day’s responsibilities. The whole week, he would not give me a definite answer if he was available on V-Day.
memorable. Sometimes the ideal Valentine’s Day is simply spending time with the people who make you happy.”
On Friday, he picked me up and took me to an awkwardly tense dinner where we argued about politics and religion - normal couple stuff, ya know? And after, I had to ask him if it was okay to spend the night at his apartment. Almost immediately after we completed our obligatory V-Day romantic encounter, he asked “Wait... you’re serious about wanting to spend the night?” He wanted me to leave so he could play video games with his roommates. Cool.
“Once upon a time when I was dating a man-child and paying all of his bills with my meager baby-sitting cash, I was so excited to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Finally, he was going to take me out and I wouldn’t have to pay for dinner - we we’re going to have a real romantic evening, almost like a real couple!
“I heard the other day that there are some restaurants that book a year in advance for Valentine’s Day. Due to movies, books, and clever marketing campaigns, Valentine’s Day has always seemed like this magical couples day. I used to think that everything would be perfect if I had a boyfriend on the holiday that celebrates love. Oh how wrong I was.
Needless to say, it lasted about a week after that. But the moral of the story is that the next Valentine’s Day, I went out with a fellow single girl friend of mine. We went to see Jupiter Ascending, where we laughed so hard that we cried as the theater lost power on multiple occasions during the film. We made friends with the others in the theater while we waited for the movie to come back on.
My one and only V-Day with a boyfriend turned out to be one of the worst. We had been together for about 10 months. The holiday landed
And although it wasn’t an ideal romantic dinner date with a long-term boyfriend, it was an experience that was far more enjoyable and

No
This guy told me for weeks ahead of time that he had bought me something that I would actually use. I didn’t really NEED flowers or chocolate or silly things like that, he assured me. Oh no, he was gonna give me something better - the absolute convenience of a pack of scrunchy hair ties! How generous … ! Now, I’m not that fancy a girl. I really don’t need to be wined and dined, or taken to exotic locales, but I do need someone who takes more than a micro-second of thought at the checkout at Walgreens to demonstrate how they feel about me. I am much more than just a girl with unruly hair that so obviously needs to be tied back and managed. I didn’t realize that then.”

Baileigh Jones and Katie Murphy, Staff Writers “The person who has impacted my life the most this past year is my boyfriend. Ever since we met he has been picking up my pieces and slowly putting them back together, and I don’t think I will ever be able to thank him enough for that. He never lets me be less than what he knows I can be and he motivates me to be a better person. He didn’t do one thing in particular to have an impact on my life, it was everything, it was just him. He changed me for the better. Everyone noticed I was a little happier and I was smiling more than I used to. I think that is the biggest impact you can have on someone - the ability to make them smile. If there is one thing that I am sure of it’s that people really do come into your life when you are least expecting it, and little do you know it’s when you need them the most. A year ago I would never have imagined the happiness I feel today. He showed me what it meant to feel loved and cared for. He showed me that I deserve nothing less and in doing so taught me one of the most important lessons in life: you accept the love you think you deserve.” -Megan Anderson ‘18
Arts & Entertainment Valentine’s Day Documentary Film Festival An Interview with Meredith Alumna, Filmmaker Camden Watts Rachel Pratl, Editor-in-Chief
Photo credits camdenwatts.com
The MC Film Festival, rescheduled due to the winter storm that shut down the Triangle a few weeks ago, will be held this Sunday from 2 - 4 p.m. in Carswell Auditorium. Camden Watts, a Meredith alumna, whose film Brewconomy is headlining the the festival, answered some of my questions about her experience at Meredith and her most recent project Was being a filmmaker what you always wanted to do, or is it something that you figured out as you went through college? My parents encouraged me to go to
college to prepare for a career much more likely to sustain a comfortable life. (The entertainment industry is really competitive, and it’s not as reliable as a 9-5 job.) As soon as I stepped onto the Meredith College campus, I knew it was home. Every day I’m thankful that I studied graphic design, photography, and communications there. After college, I felt lost for a long time. I wanted to get into film so badly but couldn’t figure out how to make it happen. I decided to move to New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles to continue studying film and improv comedy. At one point I had my bags packed and was ready to go; yet something kept me here in North Carolina. Shortly afterwards, I started making my own movies here at home. Did you develop your film-making style at Meredith? Before or after? Finding your voice as an artist is an ever-evolving thing. It changes and grows as you do. Everything in my life has led me to this point, shaped me
in some way, and created my unique point of view. (That’s true for all of us.) It’s really cool that no two filmmakers will tell the story the same way. Now that I’m starting my fifth and sixth films, I feel that I’m finally finding my voice as a storyteller. I’m stepping up my game again with these new movies. It’s thrilling and terrifying at the same time. What was the most eye-opening thing you learned as you gathered information for Brewconomy? One of the loveliest things is that we haven’t reached a tipping point for craft beer in North Carolina. It seems there’s plenty of room for growth, especially as people make the connection between supporting local businesses and the local economy. Plus, craft beer is only about 11% of total U.S. beer sales, so we have a long way to go. Making Brewconomy solidified a lot of theories I’d developed about the future of filmmaking. Over the past 10 years, there’s been a “democratization” of film
because technology has changed. The barriers to entry aren’t what they once were. We can literally shoot, edit, and distribute a film using a smartphone. (I know because I’ve done it.) We can build passionate audiences for niche content that wouldn’t get made in the traditional film business model. It’s incredible. What do you want Meredith students to take away from the movie / your role in creating it? If you’re dreaming about the life you want to lead, find a way to start making it a reality right now. Take the tiniest step in the direction of your dreams. You’ll lead a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life – and in doing so, you simultaneously make the world a better place.

the secret. The White Knight said “ I understand there were pics and stories everywhere on social media once the first performances happened this past week. And I don’t see any way to prevent that development.”
-Characters like the cards and fairies, with many dances to choreograph, have complicated rehearsals, which are more challenging to keep secret.
Alice herself said “keeping the performance a secret from students is part of the fun. I think students enjoy making guesses about the performers and seeing if they are right. Of course, as the performance gets closer, sometimes people slip up in hallway conversations and call each other by their characters’ names, but on the whole I think we do a pretty good job of saying “Shhh!” and keeping our secrets.”

Editorials Embarrassing Dating App Experiences M’Beyanna Robinson, Staff Writer
Dating has evolved in tremendous ways over the years. In kindergarten, you shared your cookies or fruit snacks with your snotty nosed significant other of two days, whom you loved passionately. Fast forward to sixth grade, now you’ve upgraded to a more complicated system of note passing. “Do you like like me? Circle yes or no?” Now you’re in college and social interactions are non-existent. When a person likes you they must confess their love for you with an emoji next to your contact name or like the 500 selfies on your Instagram. However,
the dating game has changed so much you can conveniently find a boo using a dating app! The options are endless! You have Tinder, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, eHarmony, Black People Meet, HER, Zoosk… I mean, the list is ENDLESS. So you’ve got options, but how do you know it will work? Right now, Tinder and OKC are really popular, but the success rate really depends on you and your standards. Both dating apps have managed to help millions of singles create their happily ever after. However, the not-so-good moments
are pretty terrible. Some girls wanted to share their embarrassing stories! “I matched with my brother’s best friend a while ago. I didn’t know they were all that close, until my bro posted a pic of them on Instagram. It’s weird because I said some colorful words to the guy, like REALLY COLORFUL! My brother hasn’t mentioned anything yet!” - Anonymous, Class of 2018 “About a year ago, I went on a date with this guy. My stomach was hurting like all day and about 30 minutes
before he came to pick me up, I took some tums. Long story short, we ordered our food and I got a funny feeling in my stomach. I guess he noticed something was wrong and asked me about it. Then, I pooped on myself. We never spoke again.” Anonymous, Class of 2016 “This guy told me I have a beautiful smile one time.. I don’t have a picture on my profile. So that was interesting.” - Anonymous, Class of 2017
Don’t Judge: In Defense of Makeup Niki Bell, Staff Writer

We all know that girl. You know… the one that is seemingly always put together. Her hair is freshly washed and bouncy, and her makeup looks like it was done Kylie Jenner’s own makeup artists. Some of us envy that girl, while others simply roll their eyes. After all, who has that much time on their hands? It seems that we have developed a status quo here at Meredith College, which consists of leggings, oversized t-shirts, and messy buns. Because of this standard, it’s easy to pick out the student with a class presentation that day, or perhaps the girl on her way to an internship. Regardless, wearing makeup to class usually makes you stand out. Fellow students will comment, “You look so
good today!” or ask, “Where are you going later?” But why can’t a girl look good for no reason at all? For an entire week, not a single pair of leggings touched my body. Not one baggy t-shirt was thrown over my frame. In fact, I didn’t look like I was waking up for an 8 a.m. at all. As I had predicted, students quickly began noticing the change, and I received plenty of comments. I, for one, love makeup. I’d eat, sleep, and breathe makeup if I could. Sephora is my drug of choice and Ulta Beauty is like my very best friend. Don’t get me wrong, at the end of the day, I want to wipe that goop away just as much as the next person…but when it’s on, I feel pretty empowered. With so many female empowerment movements lately, especially those about body image, it’s becoming more and more encouraged to accept one’s own “natural beauty.” But I wonder, how far has this gone? It seems that some women are ashamed to put that extra effort into their appearance in the morning.
In fact, last year people took to YouTube to fight “makeup shamers” with a new online tag, #ThePowerOfMakeup. There are now over 900,000 results when you search this expression on the site’s search engine. Started by YouTuber, NikkieTutorials, the online beauty blogger made a big impact with one 7 minute video. Nikkie filmed her extensive makeup routine with a twist. She made the bold move of keeping just one half of her face natural and untouched, while the other half was showcased in full makeup. Gaining over 26 million views since it was uploaded, Nikkie impacted viewers by encouraging them to embrace their love of makeup. She comments that people often think, “You do it for boys. You do it because you’re insecure. Or you do it because you don’t love yourself,” but that’s not always what it means. She equates it to an art form and says that anyone can love doing their makeup because “it’s fun!” Thousands of beauty bloggers have since uploaded videos and pictures
to social media that show their own before and after faces to express their love of makeup. I think, as woman especially, we should all feel comfortable in our own skin. The power of makeup is that you can do whatever you want with it; it can be bold or it can be subtle, there are no rules! There’s a difference between using makeup as a mask or as a source of confidence. One should be able to say, “Because I wanted to” when asked why they appear so dressed up. At the end of the day, look however you’re most comfortable. For me, some days that means I roll out of bed too lazy to even brush my hair. On other days, it means that I’m ready to be shot by the paparazzi. If only I could actually be that cool. So yes, that made-up girl you see may have a presentation to give, but she may also just love makeup.
I’m not kidding! 5 Star Chinese has amazing food!! Cowfish is dope! They have this food called Burgushi! It’s like sushi and a burger combined! It’s not too pricey! Wicked Taco is awesome too! On Tuesdays, you get free queso! Wendy’s got that 4 for $4! Shoot girl, you better hold on to your wallet! I’m just saying.
what you did wrong or how you could have made it better. Truth is, it takes half the time the relationship lasted to completely get over it. Relationships involve two people, you can’t love enough for the both of you. If you’re constantly checking somebody’s phone, freaking out about where they are every ten minutes, or if you’re they’re Best Friend on Snapchat, you’re gonna drive yourself crazy. You have to forgive those who have done you wrong in the past. That’s the only way, you can be happy. If trust is a big issue, you should inform them that Honesty is a must have! Try trusting someone until they give you a reason not to trust them.
