FEAST YOUR EYES ON THE SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL
By A.J. HANDLEY Asst. Editor
Every January, thousands of eager spectators flock to the snowy mountains of Park City, Utah, to partake in one of the biggest festivals in the world, The Sundance Film Festival.
For nine days, Park City’s streets are filled with eager movie-goers and filmmakers with their latest work on display at one of the many theaters in town. Along with film premieres, Sundance holds many other events, including panels with directors and actors, tech displays from camera and software companies and entertaining parties at local venues.
One subject had everyone abuzz this season: Will Sundance move out of Utah?
Last September, the Sundance Institute announced that the festival would be moving in 2027 to a new host city. The finalists have been announced as: Boulder, Colorado, Cincinnati, Ohio, or a hybrid blend between Park City and Salt Lake City. Sundance has been hosted in Utah since the first festival of
1978, which was hosted in Salt Lake City. The festival moved to Park City in 1981 which has been its home ever since.
The Sundance Film Festival kicked off Jan. 23 and will run until Feb. 2.

THE SIGNPOST REVIEWS: “IT’S NEVER OVER, JEFF BUCKLEY”
By MEGAN SWANN Editor
From an early childhood invested in music to an untimely death, “It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley” outlines the life and times of the legendary singer-songwriter.
Directed and produced by Amy Berg, this documentary premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival. Through the course of 106 minutes, the film provides a narrative of Buckley’s life through old photos, recordings and interviews with the people he was closest to in life. During this time, the film paints a picture of the true Jeff Buckley–the person beneath the pressure of trying to outdo the success of his first and only album, “Grace.”
One theme that stands out is the paradox of chasing dreams. Buckley is depicted spending his youth trying to make a name for himself. He aimed to get out of the shadow of his late father, Tim Buckley. With the release of “Grace,” he did just that and almost backed himself into a corner. The film shows several interviews with Buckley, as well as stories from former bandmates, as he tried to confront the pressure of creating another album. He took a break from music, opting to live in Memphis, Tennessee, where
he drowned in 1997.
Buckley is perhaps best known for his song “Lover, You Should’ve Come Over,” from which the title takes inspiration, or his cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”
Besides these two songs, Buckley tends to be a lesser-known artist with a small yet devoted group of fans. His music met more success in Europe than in the United States while he was alive. His backstory is largely untold, and this documentary aims to fix that.
The documentary does a great job at showing Buckley through the lens of everyone who knew him. At times, the narrative tends to feel like a typical musician documentary. One main reason it gets set apart, though, is the interviews from his loved ones. Watching his mother, ex-girlfriends and former bandmates talk about Buckley creates the sense that the documentary is a eulogy of an old friend rather than a late musician. The film depicts how Buckley’s relationship with many of these people struggled at times, but despite it all, they all look back on him and his life through tears and memories. It creates a sense of the deep loss felt by everyone who knew him.
His mother, Mary Guibert, gives the most poignant perspective on the documentary.
The film begins with her explaining what it was like to start out as a single teenage mother who once had her own dreams of pursuing music. Buckley’s birth changed her plans, but she lovingly describes how he was constantly singing and trying to protect her growing up. At the end, she describes what it was like to receive the phone call informing her of his death, and she plays the last voicemail she received from her son. At its
core, “It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley,” is just the story of a mother grieving her child.
Fans of Buckley and music lovers in general will find something in this documentary. While the filmmaking isn’t entirely groundbreaking, it is still a great insight into what fame and success can do to someone. Buckley’s flaws and strengths are put on full display to tell a vulnerable story of the life of a misunderstood musician.

THE SIGNPOST HACE SU CRÍTICA DE “IT’S NEVER OVER, JEFF BUCKLEY”
Por NELLY HERNANDEZ TEJADA Traductor
Por MEGAN SWANN Editor
Desde una niñez dedicada a la música hasta una muerte inesperada, “It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley” cuenta la vida y los tiempos del cantautor legendario. El documental, dirigido y producido por Amy Berg, se estrenó en el Sundance Film Festival de 2025. En 106 minutos, la película narra la vida de Buckley a través de fotos antiguas, grabaciones y entrevistas con las personas más cercanas a él. Durante este tiempo, la película muestra el verdadero Jeff Buckley, la persona que se esconde bajo la presión de intentar superar el éxito de su primer y único álbum, “Grace”.
Un tema que llama la atención es la cuestión paradójica de seguir los sueños. Buckley pasa su juventud intentando hacerse un nombre. Quería salir de la sombra de su difunto padre, Tim Buckley. Con la publicación de “Grace”, logró justamente eso y casi se hundió a sí mismo. El documental muestra varias entrevistas con Buckley, y también historias de antiguos miembros de la banda, mientras intentaba enfrentarse a la presión de crear otro álbum. Tomó un descanso de la música y optó por vivir en Memphis, Tennessee, donde falleció ahogado en 1997. Buckley es quizás más conocido por su canción “Lover, You Should’ve Come Over”, de la que toma inspiración el título, o su versión de “Hallelujah” por Leonard Cohen. Aparte de estas dos canciones, Buckley es un artista menos conocido, con un grupo pequeño pero muy devoto de fans. En vida, su música tenía más éxito en Europa que en los Estados Unidos. Su historia no es tan conocida, y este
documental quiere solucionarlo.
El documental hace un gran trabajo mostrando a Buckley desde la perspectiva de todos los que lo conocieron. A veces, la narración parece ser un documental típico sobre un músico. Sin embargo, una de las principales razones que hacen que se distinga de los demás son las entrevistas con sus seres queridos. Ver a su madre, a sus ex novias y a sus antiguos miembros de banda hablar de Buckley crea la impresión de que el documental es un elogio de un gran amigo más que de un músico fallecido. El documental muestra cómo la relación de Buckley con muchas de estas personas fue difícil en ciertos momentos, pero a pesar de todo, todos ellos le recuerdan a él y a su vida con lágrimas y recuerdos. Crea una sensación de profunda pérdida que sintieron todos los que le conocieron.
Su madre, Mary Guibert, da la perspectiva más emotiva del documental. El documental
comienza con ella explicando cómo fue su comienzo de madre adolescente y soltera, que un día también tuvo sus propios sueños de hacer música. Cuando Buckley nació, sus planes cambiaron, pero ella describe con cariño cómo él cantaba constantemente e intentaba protegerla mientras crecía. Al final, describe cómo fue recibir la llamada que le informó de su fallecimiento, y pone el último mensaje de voz que recibió de su hijo. En esencia, “It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley” es la historia de una madre en luto por su hijo. Los fans de Buckley y los fans de la música en general encontrarán algo interesante en este documental. Aunque la cinematografía no es totalmente innovadora, no deja de ser una gran perspectiva de lo que la fama y el éxito puede hacer a alguien. Los fallos y la fuerza de Buckley se muestran plenamente para contar una historia vulnerable de la vida de un músico incomprendido.

DEGREES IN DANGER: WHAT HB 265 MEANS FOR WEBER STATE
By HAVEN MILLER Reporter
The Higher Education Strategic Reinvestment Bill, or HB 265, has many worried throughout the university. The bill was made to identify “programs, courses, degrees, departments, colleges, or other divisions, operational efficiencies, and other components of instruction and administrative functions, including dean and other administrative positions,” and cut them out of budget, according to an email sent out by the university.
The Utah Board of Higher Education will cut funding to all degree-earning institutions by about $60 million, with $6-7 million estimated to be Weber State’s reduction. If the bill is passed, the reduction will cost Weber State countless programs and even faculty
positions.
Deborah Uman, the dean of Lindquist College of Arts and Humanities, like most other Weber State faculty and staff, has been feeling the pressure of this bill. However, she says this isn’t coming out of the blue.
“We’ve known something like this was coming for, I want to say, six months at least — since the summer. We’ve known something was going to happen, just not what,” Uman said.
Should it be passed, the bill will impact students and faculty across the campus from various degrees. Degrees with low enrollment or yield rates will likely be cut first. After an initial teachout period where students already enrolled can finish their degrees, the degrees will not be available for enrollment for incoming students or students changing their major.
It doesn’t just leave students at a crossroads; it also leaves faculty unsure. Many professors whose jobs are in jeopardy of being cut must wait patiently for Weber State’s indecision regarding the bill to pass. Weber State has to decide what programs it will cut and what programs it will keep.
“If there is a position eliminated, we try to find an appropriate placement or opportunity for that on campus,” President Brad Mortensen announced at the town hall meeting that took place on Jan. 27. This means that Weber State faculty and staff, who could have their jobs displaced because of this bill, could have other opportunities to stay a part of the university.
Weber had one of its highest enrollment semesters last fall, with over 4,000 students joining the university. With such high numbers, many have wondered why reduce funds to the college, instead of granting them
more funds.
“The reason given is for the preparation for the decline in student population. In about 10 years, there will be fewer 18 to 22-year-olds in the state who will go to college. That happened in other states, but it didn’t happen here. So the reason we were given is to prepare for that decrease now,” Uman explains.
There is still much unknown about this bill and where it leaves Weber State and other universities going forward with their degree programs. The legislature is still debating it, but it is almost certain that it will be passed. Despite this, Uman remains optimistic.
“I have a lot of faith in the intelligence of the people working on this, the good intentions of the people at this university, and how deeply we care about our students’ success because that is the number one thing that motivates everyone on this campus,” Uman said.

TÍTULOS EN PELIGRO:
LO QUE EL HB 265 SIGNIFICA PARA WEBER STATE
Deborah Uman, la decana del colegio Lindquist de los artes y humanidades, con la mayoría de otro personal y facultad de Weber State, ha sentido la presión de esta propuesta. Sin embargo, dice que esto no viene de la nada.
La propuesta de ley de reinversión estratégica de educación superior, o HB 265, ha dado preocupación a muchos en la universidad. La propuesta se creó para identificar “programas, cursos, diplomas, departamentos, colegios, o otras divisiones, eficacias operacionales, y otras componentes de instrucción y funciones administrativas, incluyendo decano y otros puestos administrativos”, y los elimina del presupuesto, según un correo electrónico enviado por la universidad. El consejo de educación superior de Utah recortará la financiación de todos las instituciones que dan títulos de alrededor de $60 millones, con una reducción de $6-7 millones estimada para Weber State. Si la propuesta se aprueba, la reducción costará una cantidad incontable de programas y hasta puestos de facultad.
“Sabemos que algo así vendría durante, pienso, por lo menos seis meses – desde el verano. Sabemos que algo pasaría, pero no lo que sería”, dijo Uman.
Si se aprueba, la propuesta impactará a los estudiantes y facultad del campus en varios títulos. Títulos con baja matrícula o cosecha probablemente serán eliminados primero. Después de un periodo inicial de “teachout” en que las estudiantes ya trabajando en sus títulos pueden terminar, los títulos no estarán disponibles para nuevos estudiantes o los que cambian de título.
No es solamente que deja a los estudiantes en una encrucijada, también deja que la facultad sea insegura. Muchos profesores cuyos trabajos están en riesgo de ser eliminados tienen que esperar con paciencia hasta que la indecisión de Weber State
pase. Weber State tiene que decidir cuáles programas eliminará y cuáles guardará.
“Si hay un puesto eliminado, intentaremos encontrar un lugar o oportunidad apropiado en campus para él”, anunció el presidente Brad Mortensen en la reunión de ayuntamiento que pasó el 27 de enero. Significa que el personal y facultad de Weber State, los cuales pueden perder sus trabajos por la propuesta, podrían tener otras oportunidades de quedarse como parte de la universidad.
Weber tuvo uno de sus semestres con más matrículas el otoño pasado, con más de 4 mil estudiantes que se unieron a la universidad. Con un número tan alto, muchos se preguntan por qué se reducirá la fundación en vez de ofrecer más.
“La razón dada es en preparación para una disminución de la población estudiantil. En alrededor de diez años, habrá menos personas entre 18 y 22 en el estado que irán a la
universidad. Ya ha pasado en otros estados, pero no pasó aquí. Entonces el motivo dado es para prepararnos para esta disminución ahora”, explicó Uman.
Todavía hay mucho desconocimiento sobre la propuesta y en qué estado dejará a Weber State y otras universidades en el futuro con sus programas de título. El cuerpo legislativo todavía la debate, pero casi es cierto que aprobará. A pesar de esto, Uman sigue siendo optimista.
“Tengo mucha fé en la inteligencia de la gente que trabaja en esto, las buenas intenciones de la gente de esta universidad, y cuánto que nos importa el éxito de nuestros estudiantes porque es la cosa más importante que motiva a todos en este campus”, dijo Uman.

SUPER BOWL LIX: HOW THE TEAMS MADE IT TO THE BOWL
By BRAYSON BROWN Asst. Editor
On. Jan. 26, the 59th Super Bowl’s opposing teams were decided after the NFC and AFC Championship games. The Philadelphia Eagles won the NFC Championship 55–23 against the Washington Commanders, and the Kansas City Chiefs won the AFC Championship 32–29 against the Buffalo Bills.
Eagles vs. Commanders
Philadelphia hosted the NFC Championship game for the second time in three years. The Eagles earned the No. 2 seed and were granted home field advantage after the No. 1-seeded Detroit Lions lost to the Washington Commanders in the Divisional Round 45–31.
The Eagles would now face the Commanders for their lategame heroics throughout the season. Philly was led by running back Saquon Barkley, who rushed for 2005 yards in the regular season and earned a finalist spot for the MVP trophy. The Eagles ended the regular season with a 14–3 record, with one of those losses coming from the Commanders.
The Commanders received a wildcard spot after a 12–5 record for the season. Throughout the regular season, Washington won eight 1-score games. At the start of the season, Washington selected quarterback Jayden Daniels with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 draft. As a rookie, Daniels guided his
team to the NFC Championship game.
The Commanders received the ball first and made a field goal on their first drive. The Eagles’ Saquon Barkley then scored a 60-yard touchdown run and didn’t stop from there. Saquon ran the ball 15 times for a total of 118 yards and three touchdowns. Quarterback Jalen Hurts also rushed for three touchdowns as the Eagles ended the Commanders’ Cinderella story of a season with a 55–23 win.
Chiefs vs. Bills
The reigning back-to-back champion Kansas City Chiefs faced off against one of their most familiar foes, the Buffalo Bills, for the AFC Championship. The two franchise quarterbacks, Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills and Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs, were both drafted in 2018.
Allen has faced Mahomes five times in regular season games with a record of 4–1, but during the postseason, Mahomes beat Allen 3–0 in the three games they met. Now, Allen’s had a stellar season, earning an MVP finalist position and leading the Bills to the No. 2 seed in the AFC Playoffs with a record of 13–4. Kansas City held a season record of 15–2, with one of those losses coming at the hands of the Bills. This was a revenge game for both sides: revenge for the Chiefs, whose perfect season was ended on Nov. 18 by Buffalo, but also for Allen, who was looking for his first victory against the Chiefs in the playoffs.
The Chiefs struck first with a nine-play, 90-yard drive ending with a rushing touchdown from Kareem Hunt. Buffalo then drove down the field to get on the scoreboard with a 53-yard field goal from kicker Tyler Bass. Kansas City drove down the length of the field only for Mahomes to fumble the ball at Buffalo’s 28-yard line, where the Bills recovered the ball. Hope glimmered in the Bills’ eyes as they developed an impressive drive ending with James Cook rushing for a 6-yard touchdown to obtain a 10–7 lead.
One thing to know is that Kansas City does not back down. With the offense and defense stepping up, the Chiefs put together two drives for two touchdowns and had a 21–10 lead with only 1:55 left in the second quarter. Allen used that time wisely, connecting with wide receiver Mack Hollins on a 34-yard-touchdown right before halftime.
The Bills then took a 22–21 lead in the second half, and the Chiefs answered with a 29–22 lead. The Bills tied the game up but let the Chiefs drive down the field for the go ahead field goal to win the game. Mahomes moved to 4–0 versus Allen in the playoffs and now moved on to the Super Bowl to try and achieve a three-peat.
The Philadelphia Eagles will face the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans, at Caesars Superdome for the Super Bowl on Feb. 9 at 4:30 p.m.

AN INSIDE LOOK INTO TRAVELING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE
By CORY MATER Reporter
A lot goes into being a student-athlete that most students and fans don’t get a chance to see firsthand; their only exposure to the players is going to the game and watching their favorite team or player compete.
From Jan. 18-20, Weber State University’s hockey team traveled to Colorado to compete in a four-game hockey showcase against Metropolitan State University, the University of Denver, Sault College and the University of Texas.
These road trips are a good time for team bonding since there are fewer distractions and the players all get a chance to eat together and stay in a hotel as a team. However, it can also be a grind because after an eight-hour bus ride and different sleeping arrangements than what players are used to, it is time to play four games in four days before the long drive back home.
In addition, the athletes are also students who have assignments that need to be completed. When working as part of a group for a class, communication becomes even more challenging because of the long bus rides and inconsistent schedules.
The different game times and the inability of the players to get into a standard game day routine can throw them off.
For a typical home game, I try to do everything at the exact same time every game day. From the moment I wake up, eat, shower and nap to the moment I get to the rink, which includes stretching, eating and mentally preparing, it is a fullday process leading up to game time.
It can be a challenge to be physically fit to play the games at a continuously high level with the grind that they are putting their bodies through.
Most athletes have a specific game preparation and a recovery routine in their training. This includes working out, eating well, proper hydration and sleeping well. For road games and long trips, the players don’t get the same luxury because games are at different times and they don’t have the same access to facilities.
The routine in hockey is unique; everyone has a different way of mentally, physically and emotionally preparing for games. Every hockey player does something different, but we all get ready to play the game we love. Even on the ice, whether it’s stickhandling a puck a certain way or doing a specific movement just to get focused, every athlete has something they’ve been doing for years.
The Wildcat hockey team split the four-game
showcase in Denver, going 2–2. After winning their first two games, one being a shootout win and the other in regulation, they struggled with the weekend’s second half.
The top scorers from this weekend were Caden Hunter, Jaden Hewes and myself. Heading into the weekend, the Wildcats were ranked No. 2 in the West region and scheduled themselves to face strong competition all weekend.
Going 2–2 could hurt their ranking, but they lost in competitive games to two very good teams. The long eight-hour drive back home was made tougher by the loss and with several players getting sick over the weekend.
Weber will be back home at the Ice Sheet to play against Utah State University on Jan. 31.

WEBER HOCKEY PREPARES FOR WASATCH CUP AFTER 16-1 WIN
By BRAYSON BROWN Asst. Editor
Weber State University returned from Colorado, where they faced the Metropolitan State University of Denver on Jan. 17, the University of Denver on Jan. 18, Sault College on Jan. 19 and the University of Texas on Jan. 20. During the four-game stretch, the Wildcats went 2–2, winning against Metro State and Denver. Looking to get back in the win column, Weber won against Montana Technological University 16–1 on Jan. 24.
The Wildcats were sharing the puck, scoring seven goals with seven players. The second period went similarly with four more goals adding to the Wildcats’ total. Montana Tech made its first point, ending the second period 11–1.
Another five Wildcat goals in the third period tallied for a final score of 16–1. Forward Jordan Jaramillo recorded a hat trick for Weber. Weber outshot Montana Tech 67–19 in a display of dominance by Weber State.
Weber will now face off against Utah Valley University in the Wasatch Cup on Jan. 31 at the Salt Lake City Sports Complex.
Weber will also prepare for their last home game of the season on Feb. 14 against in-state rivals Utah State University. The Wildcats have a record of 1–3 against the Aggies and are looking to give the hometown crowd one last win for the season. Weber’s record on the season is 17–11.
