Barefoot on the Mall celebrates end of academic year

• Steven Grandy

After a spring semester filled with classes, papers and studying, it’s only natural that East Carolina University students would want to relax with their friends before final exams begin. ECU students have had the opportunity since 1979 to celebrate the end of the semester and relax at Barefoot on the Mall.

“Barefoot on the Mall is one the longest running traditions at ECU,” said Austin Vick, assistant director of student programming in the Office of Student Engagement and a 2016 ECU graduate. “It began in 1979 and was a celebration of the last day of class. It’s become a huge tradition here that everyone looks forward to.”

Barefoot on the Mall is held on the last day of spring semester classes. The event is hosted annually by the Student Activities Board (SAB) and includes rides, food, giveaways and live music. The festival is from 3-7 p.m. Tuesday.  

“It’s a celebration,” said Vick. “College is not always easy; it’s stressful. It’s good to have a way to celebrate making it to the last day of class. It gives students something to look forward to and a way to engage. It’s the coolest experience being able to see several thousand of your peers hanging out with each other listening to music, eating and spending time together.”

Planning for the event begins months in advance and involves both on and off campus constituents.

“This year’s event is on April 23 and we’ll start thinking about next year’s event on April 24,” said Vick. “The conversation is consistent throughout the year. What we learned from the previous year is immediately incorporated into the planning as we start looking ahead to next year. Most of the planning begins in August after students come back. We start that planning by looking at contracts and touring schedules of artists.”

Students sit in front of the Cupola at Barefoot on the Mall.

Each year’s Barefoot on the Mall event centers on a theme. This year’s version is a barefoot blue jean night on the mall, centered on an overall country theme. Creating the event theme is a process that involves a lot of creativity, a bit of selling, and some luck.

“It’s a conversation similar to how the theme for homecoming is picked,” said Vick. “The Student Activities Board brainstorms a few fun themes, develops a few pitches and we see what fits. This year, we got lucky because after we decided to do a western/country theme so did several artists such as Beyonce and Post Malone and that was exciting for us. We then take the theme and look at how we can make it bigger.”

The ideas that the SAB presents are generated through both small and large discussions within the organization.

“The executive board will sit down and have conversations on what ideas we have and see which stand out and what we can create a whole event from,” said SAB president Aaliyah Bastfield. “The ideas are generated from all member meetings that are held where we discuss things as an organization and gain outside knowledge of what may be popular now, or what people around campus may want to see or interact with.”

Continuing with the country theme, platinum recording artist Parmalee is the main musical performer at this year’s event. The band, which has had three No.1 hits on the Billboard country chart including “Carolina,” “Just the Way” and “Take My Name,” started while its members were students at ECU and is named after the small Martin County town where they would rehearse.

Music, long a staple at Barefoot on the Mall, has evolved over the years of the event.

“The history of music at Barefoot on the Mall has shifted over time,” said Vick. “In the 1970s and 80s it was primarily a battle of the bands, student acts or local performers. A big shift occurred in the early 2000s both on our campus and nationally with bigger shows. There is some student input because you want to have a popular act and one that they’d like, but it has become more difficult as artists are more expensive and what we can access shifts continuously.”

Past musical performers include Kris Allen, A Great Big World, Jason Derulo, John Mayer, Jesse McCartney, Jason Mraz and T-Pain.

One of the biggest draws of the event is student giveaways, the most popular of which is a free commemorative T-shirt. Vick, who helped design the 2023 T-shirt, has seen the item across North Carolina.

“Last year myself and our graduate assistant were in the conference room designing the T-shirt and printed a few thousand,” said Vick. “I’ve seen them at the gym and at the North Carolina State Fair. I’ve been across the state and have seen a shirt that I helped design. Sometimes the longest line at the event is to get the free T-shirt. I know I have all of mine from when I was a student; it’s something that you hold onto as a memory.”

Balloon animals are one of the activities for students at Barefoot on the Mall.

The 2024 T-shirt was designed by the ECU Creative Services department.

Besides T-shirts, student giveaways include customizable cowboy hats, leather wristbands and SAB items. Vick feels that the rise in popularity of student giveaways and additional activities is a way that the event has evolved over time.

“We’ve noticed that students love the other acts and activities during Barefoot,” said Vick. “It’s a huge space of inflatables, novelties and food. It’s more than just the concert, and that’s one of the biggest changes we’ve seen over the years. It’s not a concert that happens to have inflatables but a huge event for students that happens to have a concert.”

In addition to the cowboy hats and wristbands, activities at this year’s event include a mechanical bull, jousting, an obstacle course, extreme air trampoline, caricature artists and face painters as well as a photo booth. Along with the headlining concert, stage activities include line dancing, bingo and a western outfit showcase.

“I hope students get a feel of what an ECU community feels like and the atmosphere of togetherness that is being exemplified,” said Bastfield.

The biggest wild card for Barefoot on the Mall is weather.

“It’s one shot and everyone crosses their fingers,” said Vick. “You only have one last day of class. We had great weather last year and hopefully that will continue. The previous year we had to delay the event briefly for a thunderstorm. Safety is the biggest priority and we’ll do whatever we can to keep everyone safe while also having a good time.”

For over 40 years, Barefoot on the Mall has held a special place as part of the ECU experience. While many things have and will change, Barefoot on the Mall is one that Vick feels will continue.

“ECU has changed over the years, but the spot that hasn’t changed is the Mall,” said Vick. “When you think about students in 1979 coming together to listen to music and we’re doing the same thing they did today. Barefoot on the Mall is an experience and a memory that all Pirates get to have.”

Join MIT List Visual Arts Center on a public art walking tour showcasing the MIT public art collection throughout central campus. 

View select artworks in central campus, featuring two new works to the collection by Spencer Finch and Julian Cherrière . 

MIT’s Percent-for-Art Program , administered by the List Visual Arts Center, now allocates up to $500,000 to commission art for each new major renovation or campus construction project. The policy was formally instituted in 1968, but earlier collaborations between artists and architects can be found on MIT’s campus. When architect Eero Saarinen designed the MIT Chapel in 1955, sculptor Theodore Roszak designed the Bell Tower and sculptor Harry Bertoia designed the Altarpiece . In 1985, architect I.M. Pei and artists Scott Burton, Kenneth Noland, and Richard Fleischner collaborated on Percent-for-Art projects for the Wiesner Building and plaza, home to the MIT List Visual Arts Center and the Media Laboratory.

This program is free, but registration required.

This program is weather dependent. Registered attendees will receive an email the day before the tour date if needed to cancel due to weather conditions.

Impressive Campus

Campus tour was informative and interesting. Main building is one of the eight Stalinsky buildings spread throughout Moscow. Campus is vast so if you have a special interest it is advisable to contact the specific department.

The outside façade is very typical of the Soviet style buildings constructed by Stalin. I did not have a chance to visit inside, but they make a statement just by the sheer size.

If I would not have seen it I would not believe it, the entire complex is sooo huge like the biggest monstrosity yet also a temple of knowledge.

Very nice campus, Impressive buildings. If you are close walk over. This is one of the premier education institutions in Russia. The could cut the grass more often.

we went to lunch here after the moscow free tour - as compared with the rest of moscow, the food is a bargain and very tasty - i got enough to eat as a vegetarian

Even the picture can not really present what it is. worth the trip. Can't get in but just looking from the outside is good enough. It looks like a shorter and flattern Empire State building to me, + many communist statue decor & flashy finish (yes, it looks pretty luxury from outside.). It's still very tall and it's a huge building. It's totally different from the university buildings of the rest of the world. Well, it's propaganda-ish & cool. Absolutely good looking.

Boris Pasternak's museum house

Pasternak’s “important achievement both in contemporary lyrical poetry and in the field of the great Russian epic tradition" was honored with a Nobel Prize for Literature in 1958. For many readers outside Russia, Pasternak is known mainly as the author of the touching historical novel Doctor Zhivago written in 1957. The novel as a whole communicates the haphazard, uncertain and chaotic quality of life caused by the Russian Revolution and the heroic case of quiet humanism demonstrated by a single person.

Pasternak’s translations of Georgian poets favored by Joseph Stalin probably saved his life during the purges of the 1930’s. However, the individualistic Pasternak was not suited to the Soviet artistic climate when art was required to have a clear socialism-inspired agenda and so Russian publishers were unwilling to print Pasternak’s novel. In fact, Doctor Zhivago first appeared in Italy in 1957.

Pasternak won his Nobel Prize the following year. Despite Pasternak politely declining his Nobel Prize quoting: “because of the significance given to this award in the society to which I belong”, the award nevertheless spread his fame well beyond Russia. He ended his life in virtual exile in an artist's community in Peredelkino village. His last poems are devoted to love, to freedom and to reconciliation with God.

Pasternak was rehabilitated posthumously in 1987. In 1988, after being banned for three decades, "Doctor Zhivago" was published in the USSR. In 1989 Pasternak's son accepted his father's Nobel medal in Stockholm.

Pastenak loved his house in Peredelkino, the house and surrounding nature featuring in his poetry. The poet considered the cycle of poems "Peredelkino", which he completed in the spring of 1941, to be his best work. The poet spent the first difficult months of the war in Peredelkino; he completed the novel "Doctor Zhivago" here, wrote the Lara poems and translated Shakespeare and Goethe. It was in this house that he learned he was to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature on October 23rd 1958. He died here on May 30 1960.

The house in Peredelkino only acquired the status of a museum in 1990, thirty years after the poet's death and a century after his birth. The museum has fully preserved the environment and atmosphere of the house where Boris Pasternak lived and worked. The director of the museum is Elena Pasternak, grandaughter of Boris Pasternak.

Pasternak’s grave can be found in Peredelkino cemetery which is situated 20 minutes walk from the poet’s house.

April 22, 2024 - Protests at Columbia and other schools escalate

Matt Egan, Alicia Wallace and Chandelis Duster

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology says it is 'determining next steps'

From CNN's Jillian Sykes

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology issued a statement Monday regarding tents on its campus.

"MIT officials are aware of the tents, and are determining next steps with a focus on ensuring campus is physically safe and fully functioning. MIT Police were on scene throughout the night and will continue to be present."

Robert Kraft says he is willing to support The Kraft Center at the university

From CNN's Chandelis Duster

Robert Kraft, billionaire owner of the NFL’s New England Patriots and backer of Columbia University, on Monday said he is still willing to support The Kraft Center at the school that supports Jewish students, calling it “a haven of safety.”

Kraft, an alumnus of the university, told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “The Lead” that he loves the school and “we have to have accountability.”

“There are both professors and students within the university who say things that I think cross the line and there should be accountability. I believe in free speech. Say whatever you want but pay the consequences. And don't have your face covered. I don't think that should be allowed,” he said.  

“I can’t believe in New York City at Columbia University Jewish students are afraid to go to classes in the United States of America in 2024. It’s amazing to me and horrible,” Kraft also said.

Asked where he drew the line at Columbia University regarding both pro-Palestine and pro-Israel protests and what he finds objectionable, he said “there is a lack of education on the situation” happening in the Middle East. 

“I’m concerned about America and what’s going on in this country. And to keep it open and free for all people of all backgrounds to do as they wish,” he said.

Asked if he has confidence in Columbia University’s president, Minouche Shafik, he said he thinks she is “very well intentioned” and said “we have to look at what goes on with faculty.”

Columbia faculty stage walk-out in solidarity with students

From CNN's John Towfighi

Hundreds of people gathered on Low Plaza Monday afternoon as Columbia University faculty delivered speeches in support of the student protesters who were suspended and arrested Thursday.

Faculty who spoke denounced university president Minouche Shafik’s decision to authorize the New York Police Department to remove protesters from campus and demanded all legal and disciplinary charges be dismissed and expunged from students' records.

Faculty held signs that read, “Hands off our students,” and “End student suspensions now.” Some faculty donned their academic regalia and wore sashes that read, “We support students.”

Speeches were met with cheers and claps from the crowd, as well as chants for Shafik to resign.

Christopher Brown, a professor of history, said, “I’m here because I am so concerned about what is happening at this university, with where we are now and with where we are going. Thursday April 18, 2024, will be remembered as a shameful day in Columbia history.”

“The president’s decision to send riot police to pick up peaceful protesters on our campus was unprecedented, unjustified, disproportionate, divisive and dangerous,” Brown said.

US Rep. Ilhan Omar, whose daughter Isra Hirsi was among the protesters arrested Thursday , posted on X that while she’s glad to see faculty demonstrate in solidarity with students, she wants the protests to focus on Gaza.

"On Thursday, Columbia arrested and suspended its students who were peacefully protesting and have now ignited a nationwide Gaza Solidarity movement. This is more than the students hoped for and I am glad to see this type of solidarity. But to be clear, this about the genocide in Gaza and the attention has to remain on that," Omar wrote.

NYC Mayor condemns "vile" and "disgusting" rhetoric at college campuses

From CNN's Alicia Wallace

New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Monday condemned “vile” and “disgusting” rhetoric being used at campuses such as Columbia University, where students are holding protests over the Israel-Hamas War.

Adams told CNN’s Jake Tapper that he supports First Amendment rights but said law enforcement officials are on the ready if any of that speech goes too far or if there’s an imminent threat to people or property.

"That is one of the fundamental rights we hold dear as Americans: The right to protest," Adams said on CNN's "The Lead." "What we have seen playing out on many of our college campuses, and particularly Columbia University, is hate. We’re seeing vile language being used."

Adams noted that he can feel the "duality of this moment" and how the events of the past six months are weighing heavily on Jewish and Palestinian New Yorkers. He added that the police escorts of Jewish students through campus were reminiscent of the Army soldiers who escorted nine Black students into a high school in Little Rock, Arkansas, nearly 67 years ago.

"There is no place for hate in this city," he said.

New York Police Department officers have a “large presence” surrounding Columbia but have remained off the campus grounds at the request of the school’s administration, NYPD deputy commissioners said earlier on Monday.

Adams told Tapper that the NYPD’s commissioner of legal matter is monitoring the protests for any speech that violates law. Additionally, police officers will take "appropriate action" and go on private property if there’s an "imminent threat."

Protesters gather at The New School in New York City

From CNN's Elisabeth Buchwald

Protesters have gathered at The New School, located near the Chelsea area of the New York City borough of Manhattan.

An encampment of four tents was set up in the lobby of the building that houses auditoriums, a cafeteria and a library. Roughly 75 students, and other people who have The New School IDs, gathered inside the building.

"Disclose, divest, we will not stop, we will not stop, we will not rest," was repeatedly chanted. 

Outside the building, protesters from the school, as well as outsiders, joined in chants from the sidewalk.

There is a stark difference between the inside and outside of Columbia University's campus

From CNN's Ramishah Maruf

There’s a stark difference between the inside of Columbia University's campus and the outside, where there are protesters gathered on the street. 

The encampment is only open to those affiliated with campus. Only those with a Columbia ID can enter the campus gates. Inside the encampment, programs include teach-ins, poetry readings and film screenings. Some students are quietly finishing assignments, while others are painting posters.

Elsewhere around campus, students are eating and completing assignments. Many students take graduation pictures at this time, and some are in graduation gowns walking down Broadway. Risers are set up for an upcoming commencement ceremony.

Other students are holding large American flags underneath Butler Library.

But the students can still hear the tension that is taking place yards away at the university gates. There is a gathering of pro-Palestinian protesters, who in the early afternoon were chanting “I believe that we will win” and “Long Live the Intifada.” There was a smaller group of pro-Israeli protesters, who chanted back “Down with Hamas” and “Victory to Israel.” A line of New York Police officers were monitoring the street.

What it's like inside the Columbia University encampment

The inside of the encampment is quiet – most of the noise comes from protestors outside the gates of Columbia University's campus, who are chanting “I believe that we will win” and “Long live the Intifada."

It was a sunny day on campus, and in one corner, students were painting posters. One person strummed a stringed instrument, and other students are reading books or on their laptops finishing assignments. Others have donated provisions, ranging from a table of snacks to hygiene products. There was also a pile of blankets.

“We’ve just been trying to keep students mobilized and keep pushing for divestment,” Dalia, a first-year student at Columbia College, told CNN. “We are a very mobilized student body and a very unified student body. Hundreds of people have been in and out of the encampment.”

CNN agreed not to publish her surname due to safety concerns.

She said the students at the campus “refuse to be complicit in the genocide, the apartheid, and the occupation of Palestine.”

There are strict community guidelines for the encampment. One rule says not to share names or details of anyone met in camp, and asking for permission before photographing or taking video.

The encampment is filled with dozens and dozens of tents, from students to neighboring Barnard College staff. Today’s encampment program included an Earth Day performance, poetry reading and a Dabka lesson, a traditional dance from the Arab region. Prior program events included dance performances from different cultures.

Democratic House members tour Columbia campus

Democratic Reps. Jared Moskowitz of Florida, Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey, Dan Goldman of New York and Kathy Manning of North Carolina, who are all Jewish, spoke at a news conference Monday after touring Columbia University’s campus. 

"We saw it firsthand as we walked past the encampments on the university's main lawn full of protesters spewing incendiary antisemitic hate and vitriol. Many aren't even Columbia students I've been told. Their campaign of intimidation is sickening and shocking and as the White House said yesterday, ‘echoes the rhetoric of Hamas terrorists,'" Gottheimer said. 

He also criticized Columbia University leadership, saying, “toothless combinations from administrators aren't going to stop the anarchy we’re seeing.”

“The only way to do it is with deeds, not words,” Gottheimer said. “Colleges have a legal obligation under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to provide students, including Jews and Muslims, a school environment free from discrimination and harassment based on race color or national origin. Yet just feet from here, Jewish students are being verbally and even physically assaulted.”

Gottheimer continued, “To the administrators of Columbia and beyond, here are our demands: Stop the double talk and start acting now. Discipline harassers, restore civility on this campus, encourage peaceful constructive dialogue.”

He also gave a message for students: “While the leadership of Columbia may be failing you, we will not. We will do everything in our power to keep you safe and do everything in Washington we can to make sure that you feel welcome at this university or any university across the United States of America. And Columbia University, if they don't follow through, will pay the price.”

Goldman said he was "encouraged" the Columbia University president issued guidelines about additional security, calling it a "very important first step" and criticized what is happening on campus.

"That is unacceptable for a university, that is unacceptable for an academic institution. There is no question that everyone has a First Amendment right to speak out in this country and that must be preserved," Goldman said. "But a university and all universities have an obligation to maintain the safety and security of their students from all backgrounds."

Manning said university leadership should "do more to keep Jewish students safe and to re-establish an atmosphere in which all students can learn, study and participate safely in campus life."

"Columbia must also move forward with its promised efforts to teach its students and its faculty about the nature and history and dangers of antisemitism. It must ensure that Columbia professors are not encouraging and spreading antisemitism," Manning said.

"I call on the US Department of Education and the US Department of Justice to work with the White House to ensure that all universities take steps necessary to keep Jewish students and faculty safe. I also call on Congress to enact legislation to implement the steps outlined in the US national strategy to counter antisemitism, to address the scourge of antisemitism which is a threat to the foundations of our democracy," she said.

President Joe Biden condemns antisemitism on campus

From CNN's Kevin Liptak

President Joe Biden decried antisemitic protests around college campuses Monday and said his administration was working to combat anti-Jewish hatred.

"I condemn the antisemitic protests, that’s why I’ve set up a program to deal with that," Biden said when questioned about the events at Columbia University in New York.

"I also condemn those who don’t understand what’s going on with the Palestinians," he said, without expanding upon what he meant.

Biden was speaking after an Earth Day event in Prince William Forest Park in Triangle, Virginia.

When asked whether Columbia's president should resign, Biden appeared to mishear: "I didn’t know that. I'll have to find out more," he said.

Texas MS 150 Bike Tour Returns To Aggieland

Texas A&M University will once again serve as the finish line for thousands of cyclists riding in the Texas MS 150 when the 40th annual charity bike tour concludes Sunday on Houston Street between Kyle Field and Aggie Park.

The two-day event benefiting people with multiple sclerosis — a condition that damages the body’s nervous system by eroding the protective coating of nerves — will run April 27-28, with a variety of routes beginning in Houston and Austin before converging in La Grange and again in College Station. Texas A&M Transportation Services is advising drivers to anticipate multiple road closures and potential delays beginning early Sunday as the riders make their way through campus.

A section of Lamar Street starting at the bell tower will be closed to drivers throughout the day, while Houston Street will remain closed from George Bush Drive to Joe Routt Boulevard. Riders will make their way down Olsen Boulevard and Old Main Drive before passing the Memorial Student Center and Kyle Field on their way to the finish line. A map of the route through campus, as well as accompanying road closure and parking information, can be found at transport.tamu.edu/ms150 .

Visitors planning to watch the participants finish are invited to park in one of the three nearby garages: Gene Stallings Boulevard Garage and University Center Garage will both charge a flat $10 entry fee, while West Campus Garage charges an hourly visitor rate. Additional parking information is available on Transportation Services’ event parking page .

The National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s Bike MS, which encompasses the Texas MS 150 and a variety of other charity rides across the country, traces its roots to 1980, when the first MS 150 was held in Minnesota. Today, it is the largest fundraising cycling series in the world. Participants in this year’s Texas MS 150 have already raised nearly $7 million to fight multiple sclerosis, with an overall fundraising goal of $9.425 million. More information about the Texas MS 150 and Bike MS is available at events.nationalmssociety.org .
