From the balcony in the Ubben Basketball Complex on a mid-July afternoon, a spectator couldn't be blamed if he swore a glimpse of the past was running up and down the court.

The maniacal laugh, the freakish ruby lipped smile, the brilliant green hair - all accented with a purple suit. Only one villain is known to have such a vibrant and exaggerated appearance: the Joker, Batman's arch-nemesis and quite possibly the most deserving of Batman's crime-fighting attention with his violent sociopathic and sometimes, if not always, murderous tendencies.

Na na na na na na na na BATMAN! Although not as upbeat as that famous song, the newest installment of Batman does more to the common perception about super heroes than any previous attempt. "The Dark Knight" transcends the typical "good versus evil" motif and takes viewers for a dark ride through the innermost caverns of human nature, where that line between right and wrong has never been so thin.

One of the more frustrating things about being a student at the University of Illinois at Chicago is the lack of community at our school. We all have friends on campus and at home that we can enjoy life with, but if we are honest with ourselves we will acknowledge that it is difficult to meet people at this university because a wide majority of students treat it as if it were a giant community college.
