Daily News for Sunday, October 1, 2023
All the Tigers Together at CU 2023 Homecoming By Gerard Flanagan, news writer and photographer, Office of University Communications So much has changed about Campbellsville University since Sharon Hedrick attended as a student 50 years ago. Numerous new facilities, such as Ransdell Chapel, the School of Nursing and the new press box at Finley Stadium, dot the campus Hedrick once walked as a student. Even the name of her alma mater has changed, with Campbellsville College becoming Campbellsville University in 1996. And, the Badgett Academic Support Center (BASC) Banquet Hall, where Hedrick was inducted into the Golden Heritage Club, once served as the school's cafeteria.

Tommy Druen: The rubble or our sins? Previous Column: The image we want to portray By Tommy Druen Last month my wife and I embarked on our annual pilgrimage to Louisville for the Bourbon and Beyond music festival. This marked our third year attend this six-year-old festival, and each year has brought us an array of legendary musicians. We've been excited to witness performances by such luminaries as John Fogerty, Robert Plant, Pearl Jam, Blondie and a multitude of others. With an estimated 120,000 attendees this year, I think it's safe to expect the festival's allure to only ascend. Among the many captivating performances, I was very interested in hearing Bastille, perhaps a lesser known band but one that has become a personal favorite. Originating from London, this band burst onto the indie scene in 2013 with the release of "Bad Blood," a track from their album of the same name. Subsequently, "Pompeii" emerged as a massive hit, its infectious introductory melody attached to television commercials and even the highly underrated 2014 cinematic adaptation of "Mr. Peabody and Sherman." "Pompeii" is, by all accounts, an unconventional song. It's not typical for lyrics to narrate the demise of a city due to an ancient natural disaster.
