Don't Let the
Bed Bugs Bite
BY DANICA CEBALLOS
ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR
"Good night, sleep tight.
Don't let the bedbugs bite!"
While many children are
familiar with this catchy rhyme,
many do not know that bedbugs do
exist.... even on college campuses.
Recently, due to one student's
experience with bedbugs at Fairfield
University, there was a rumor that
there was an outbreak in freshman
dorms Jogues Hall and Gonzaga
Hall; however, the director of Resi-dence
Life said that in this isolated
case, the bedbugs were brought into
the dorms by an outside source
"We currently work with an
outside exterminating company
to address any and all concerns of
bedbugs," explained Charlie Sou-sa,
associate director of Residence
Life. "To date there has been one
isolated issue of bedbugs on cam-pus,
so this is not an epidemic or
an outbreak."
Besides Sousa, no other
representatives from ResLife,
including Area Coordinators and
Resident Assistants, would com-ment
on this incident.
According to Sousa, Facilities
Management and ABM were in-volved
in working with the student
affected in this case in exterminat-ing
the bedbugs. It was immedi-ately
addressed and is said to have
only affected one room.
Because some students were
skeptical of bedbugs in their
rooms, ResLife said that they sent
exterminators to check each room
that filed a complaint. According
to Sousa, with the exception of
this one case, there have been no
further discoveries of bedbugs.

BED BUGS! PAii 3
CanYou Create a Masterpiece in 10 Minutes?
BY MARTIN O'SULLIVAN
OPINION EDITOR
It took Da Vinci almost four
years to complete the Mona Lisa.
For David Garibaldi, painting
a portrait double the size takes less
than 10 minutes.
Garibaldi, a performance painter,
showed the speed of his ability on Oct.
24 at Fairfield University's Quick Center.
He performed his original stage act
entitled"Rhythm and HueJ'in which
he rapidly paints celebrity portraits in
rhythmic harmony with popular songs
With the help of an onstage DJ
and drummer, the performance be-gan
with a remix of songs byThe Beat-les.
Within seconds, Garibaldi began
chaotically stroking paint on his black
canvas, throwing each brush before
dunking another into a paint can.
Within six minutes, one could
fully understand the meaning of
the name "Rhythm and Hue."What
began as a mess of color magically
took shape as a 6'x 5'portrait ofThe
Beatles'John Lennon.
In a mid-performance speech,
Garibaldi described the message
of his work, which is that a person's
passion holds unlimited poten-tial.
He explained to the audience
the importance of pursuing one's
dreams and how this pursuit can
change the world, citing the phil-anthropic
work of Facebook creator
MarkZuckerberg.
"It's how we begin to use this
passion as a platform, when we apply
this purpose behind it that we see the
world change,"said Garibaldi.
Seconds later, Aerosmith's
"Dream On" began playing as Garib-aldi
started throwing paints and
brushes. After only seven minutes,
the audience was looking at a
portrait of a man who changed the
world by saying that he had a dream
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
