By Paul Jarvey
Boys Trade — Worcester Technical
High School (It’s also
known as Voke, but if
you call it Worcester
Tech you’ll only confuse
long-time Worcesterites.
See Tech entry below)
Bubbler — Water fountain
Candlepin Bowling —
Invented in Worcester in 1880
by Justin P. White, this game is
also called “little balls.” Find a candlepin alley and you’ll discover it’s a
far superior game to Ten Pin, which is
known locally as “big balls.”
Cellar — Basement. (Those who went
through the city’s public school system
in the 1960s or earlier sometimes use
basement as a synonym for bathroom.)
Club sandwich — Italian sub
Diner — Good food cheap, but it’s only
considered a diner if it was made by
Worcester Lunch Car Co. The Boulevard
(also known as the Bouly) and the Miss
Worcester are two examples.
Dinner — Lunch
Dungarees — Blue jeans
East Side — Working-class neighborhoods east of Main Street

Regular coffee — Fully-caffeinated
with cream and sugar
Spa — A corner store with soda
fountain
Square — All rotaries are squares,

Not a sandwich,
but a house with
three floors,
huge apartments,
hundreds of stairs
and nowhere close to enough parking
Tonic — Soda pop (of any
flavor or brand)
The Village — Quinsigamond
(sort of near Holy Cross)
West Side — Neighborhoods west of Park Avenue,
desirable digs unless you have to get to Boston in a hurry.

ure we talk funny. People from Mississippi talk funny. So do Minnesotans, Oregonians and
New Yorkers. Especially New Yorkers. The bigger question is why does Worcester have a
lake, a village, college and an avenue named Quinsigamond (shortened to Quinsig by all
locals), but they’re scattered around the city like leaves in the fall?
No, it doesn’t make sense unless you know that the community was called Quinsigamond long before it was called Worcester. It’s a Native American word that means: “boy, do these folks talk strange.”
So, if you’ve wandered onto campus from New Jersey, Ohio or
some other place where “R” doesn’t rhyme with “ah,” and you
want the lowdown on the local lingo, you’ve come to the right
place. We’ve assembled a handy guide to the odd and sometimes confusing Worcester dialect.
Before we get to that, though, you need to know how to
properly pronounce Worcester. Don’t make it three syllables.
Just forget that first E is even there. And never, never, never
put an H in the middle of Worcester. People will make fun of
you. So, how do you correctly pronounce Worcester?
You’ve dropped the first E and boiled it down to two syllables.
Now eliminate both R’s. While you’re at it, better get that C out
of there. Make the remaining E sort of an AH and turn the O
into a U. Wuss-tah. It doesn’t rhyme with sister or rooster. The
first syllable rhymes with puss. Go ahead and say it. Wuss-tah.
Now you’re almost ready to walk into a spa in the village and
order a regular coffee and maybe a couple of tonics and a grinder
or club sandwich. One more thing. Always include your state
as part of your hometown, as in:
“I’m from Wusstahmass.”
Confused?
The following
guide to the
peculiarities of
the Central
Mass. dialect

Wear wristwatch?
Use e-mail?
Not for the
Class of ’14
For students entering college this fall,
e-mail is too slow, phones have never had
cords and the computers they played
with as kids are now in museums.
The Class of 2014 thinks of Clint Eastwood more as a sensitive director than as
Dirty Harry urging punks to “go ahead,
make my day.” Few incoming freshmen
know how to write in cursive or have
ever worn a wristwatch.
These are among the 75 items on this
year’s Beloit College Mindset List. The
compilation is assembled each year by
two officials at this private school of
about 1,400 students in Beloit, Wis.
The list is meant to remind teachers
that cultural references familiar to them
might draw blank stares from college
freshmen born mostly in 1992.
Of course, it can also have the unintended consequence of making people
feel old.
Remember when Dr. Jack Kevorkian,
Dan Quayle or Rodney King were in the
news? These kids don’t.
Ever worry about a Russian missile
strike on the U.S.? During these students’
lives, Russians and
Americans have always
been living together in
outer space.
Being aware of the generation gap helps professors craft lesson plans that
are more meaningful, said
Ron Nief, a former public
affairs director at Beloit College and one of the list’s creators.
Nief and English professor
Tom McBride have assembled
the Mindset List for 13 years.
They say it’s given them an unusual perspective on cultural shifts.
For example, as item No. 13 on the list
says, “Parents and teachers feared that
Beavis and Butt-head might be the voice
of a lost generation.”
With far edgier content available
today, such as “South Park” or online
videos that push the envelope, there’s
something quaint about recalling the
hand-wringing that the MTV cartoon
prompted, Nief said.

“I
think we do
that with every generation — we look back and
say, what were we getting so upset
about?” he said. “A, kids outgrow it and
B, in retrospect we realize it really wasn’t
that bad.”
Another Mindset List item reflects a
possible shift in Hollywood attitudes.
Item No. 12 notes: “Clint Eastwood is better known as a sensitive director than as
Dirty Harry.”
A number of incoming freshmen said
they partially agreed with the item, noting they were familiar with Eastwood’s
work as an actor even if they hadn’t seen
his films.
Every year, Beloit College in Beloit, Wis.,
releases its Mindset List to give a snapshot of
the world view of the incoming freshmen
class.
A sampling of the list for the Class of 2014:
1. Few in the class know how to write in
cursive.
2. E-mail is just too slow, and they seldom
if ever use snail mail.
3. “Go west, young college grad,” has
always implied “and don’t stop until you get to
Asia and learn Chinese along the way.”
4. Al Gore has always been animated.
5. Los Angelinos have always been trying
to get along.
6. Buffy has always been meeting her
obligations to hunt down Lothos and the other
bloodsuckers at Hemery High.
7. “Caramel macchiato” and “venti halfcafvanilla latte” have always been street
corner lingo.
8. With increasing numbers of ramps,
Braille signs and handicapped parking
spaces, the world has always been trying
harder to accommodate people with disabilities.
9. Had it remained operational, the villainous computer HAL could be their college
classmate this fall, but they have a better
chance of running into Miley Cyrus’ folks on
Parents’ Weekend.
10. A quarter of the class has at least one
immigrant parent, and the immigration debate
is not a big priority unless it involves “real”
aliens from another planet.
11. John McEnroe has never played professional tennis.
12. Clint Eastwood is better known as a
sensitive director than as Dirty Harry.
13. Parents and teachers feared that Beavis and Butt-head might be the voice of a lost
generation.
14. Doctor Kevorkian has never been licensed to practice medicine.
15. Colorful lapel ribbons have always
been worn to indicate support for a cause.
16. Korean cars have always been a staple
on American highways.
17. Trading Chocolate the Moose for Patti
the Platypus helped build their Beanie Baby
collection.
18. Fergie is a pop singer, not a princess.
“I know he directed movies but I also
know he’s supposed to be sort of badass,” said Aaron Ziontz, 18, from Seattle.
Jessica Peck, a 17-year-old from Portland, Ore., disagreed with two items on
the list — one that says few students
know how to write in cursive, and
another that suggests this generation seldom if ever uses snail mail.
“Snail mail’s kind of fun. When I
have time I like writing letters to
friends and family,” she said. “It’s
just a bit more personal. And yes,
I write in cursive.”
Peck did agree with the item
pointing out that most teens
have never used telephones
with cords.
“Yes, I’ve used them but
only at my grandparents’
house,” she said.
That’s the sort of comment that can make a person feel old. McBride
jokes that he’s not
immune from feeling
ancient just because he
compiles the items. But the
65-year-old said the lists can also
reveal a larger truth about tolerance.
The “Beavis and Butt-head” item suggests that maybe parents shouldn’t overreact every time a controversy arises, he
noted. For example, maybe it’s no big
deal if college freshmen misspell words
when they text, and maybe their attention spans will be just fine even though
they grew up in the Internet age, he said.
“There’s something about the resilience of human nature that renders these
gloom-and-doom prophesies moot after a
while,” he said. “I can’t say for sure, but it
looks like the track record of these very
anxious prophets has not been impressive over the years.”

So, your parents just helped
you lug everything into the
small cubicle you will be calling
home for the next year. They
said goodbye, and now you’re
left to your own devices, surrounded by strangers. It’s not as
bad as it sounds. Surviving
your first year of college is
entirely doable. Here are a few
pointers.

When you hardly know a soul
at school, what better way is
there to meet people who share
your interests than joining a
club, organization or intramural sport. It’s an ideal and pressure-free way to meet new people and make friends.
2. Beat stress
Mid-semester and finals
times are notorious for inducing stress. But don’t worry; it’s
nothing you can’t handle. Work
always gets done no matter
what. Even if that means watching the sun rise as you highlight
your textbook and write your
paper (that’s what caffeine is
for). When you get frustrated,
take a break, turn up your music and go for a run, walk or to
the gym. Oftentimes it helps.
3. Do your laundry
There are laundry machines
on campus for a reason. Don’t
let your hamper reach mountainous heights or end up at the
store
buying
underwear
because you don’t feel like doing
laundry. Do yourself and your
roommate(s) a favor, make
laundry a weekly habit.
4. Socialize
College is a time to explore
and make friends. You’re not
going to go anywhere on the
social train if you never leave
your room. Social events are put
on by residence halls and the
college. Some may be a bit
cheesy, but it doesn’t hurt to attend them. And, oh yeah, be the
cool kid who has Apples to
Apples stuffed under the bed —
this classic game makes for an
instant, fun social gathering.
5. Don’t be stupid
We’re all amused with the
new-found freedom of college
life. But that doesn’t mean you
have to go out and get belligerent to enjoy it. There are ways to
have responsible fun. When you
go out at night, don’t go alone.
Don’t post pictures of yourself
on the Internet with a beer can
in your hand.
6. Stay put
The excitement of freedom
eventually wears off, and we all
get a little homesick. It’s nice to
go home every once and while,
but don’t make it a weekly thing.
The best way to really build a
sense of community is to live
there.
7. Make friends with
your neighbors
It’s good to be friendly with
your neighbors, especially the
one who has all the latest video
games and movies. And if you
ever need a plastic spoon for
your cereal, chances are they
will give you two.
8. Stock up on snacks
Let’s face it, some school dining hall food is not gourmet nor
is it available 24 hours a day. It’s
good to keep some snacks in
your room to satisfy your stomach at midnight and prevent you
from ordering another pizza.
9. Set two alarm clocks
It’s not good to miss class simply because you overslept.
You’re paying for school; you
might as well go to class and
learn something. Plus, some
professors have harsh absence
penalties. To be safe, set two
alarm clocks.
10. Know where the
library is
The library is actually a useful resource. When your printer
fails you, the library’s got your
back. It’s also a QUIET place to
study when your headphones
don’t entirely drown out your
roommate.

Former skinhead speaks out against
hate crimes, 11:30 a.m., Student Center
Blue Lounge, Worcester State University. A
former skinhead tells of his descent into
America’s Nazi underground and his ultimate triumph over hatred and addiction.
His violent childhood in South Philadelphia
primed him to hate. He made easy prey for
a small group of skinhead gang recruiters
led by his older cousin. At 14, he shaved his
head. By 16, he was one of the most
notorious skinhead gang leaders on the
East Coast. By 18, he was doing hard time
in an Illinois prison. Behind bars, he began
to question his hatred, thanks in large part
to his African-American teammates on a
prison football league. Shortly after being
paroled, he defected from the white supremacy movement. The Oklahoma City
bombing inspired him to try to stop the
hatred he once had felt.
Speaker: “Building Sustainable Businesses,” 7 p.m., Davis 205-207, Nichols

much more widespread than this. Come

Quick tips on spending
So the school year is back in
session and you’re looking for
something to do. Unfortunately,
you’re a college student and
you don’t quite have the budget
to splurge. Well, here are some
quick tips for the newbie college student in the Worcester
area who wants to have some
fun and spare some cash.
1. Diet
If you are living on campus,
get a meal plan. The dining
halls at your school will provide you with a solid base to
your college diet, and best of all,
they are usually all-you-can-eat
(watch out for the freshman 15).
Now, the food may not be gourmet, but, guess what? It’s food.
Also, the dining halls are an
endless source of potential latenight snacks. Bring a backpack;
fill it with fruit, soup crackers
and bread to bring back to your
dorm room. Gatorade bottles
can be refilled at the soft drink
stations.
2. Furniture
Salvation Army is the best
place to snag cheap furniture.
Think little kids furniture. It
may be tough to sit in sometimes, but the dwarf-sized dorm
rooms can’t handle grownup
furniture. Also, it’s pretty
funny watching your
friends fall out of
miniature sofas.
Loft your beds!
If you have the ability to put
your bed on stilts, do it! This
will open up some serious room
for you’re miniature setup.
Places like Target and WalMart also have good deals on
dorm furniture. Word to the
wise, Wal-Mart has a really lax
return policy. If at the end of
the year you find that you
haven’t been completely happy
with their product, try returning it.
3. Getting out
There are some great places
in the Worcester area that offer
good hikes and outdoor activities at cost of transportation.
Purgatory Chasm is about 10
miles south of Worcester down
Route 146 in Sutton, you will
find a giant chasm with granite
walls that climb more than 70
feet on either side. The chasm
runs a quarter mile downhill to
a small stream.
Along the way, you can jump
from boulder to boulder, scale
walls and explore some of the
caves that have been a spectacle
of the land for thousands of
years.
4. Staying in
Sometimes the best place to
have a good time is at home.
Turn your room into a dance
party and invite your hall
mates. Hanging out in dorm
rooms is half the fun of being in
college.
Embrace the experience.
Want something more relaxing? Invite everyone to your
room and have them bring their
favorite movie. A movie/TV
show marathon is something
everyone craves every once in a
while — “Indiana Jones” for
the guys, “Sex and the City” for
girls, or “True Blood” together.
Don’t forget that you only get
four years to do this college
thing. Yeah, this college thing
that costs more money than you
can win on most game shows.
So being thrifty is a necessity.
Hint: if you meet the right people, you can have a lot of fun
doing practically nothing.
Get creative.

We Will be Continuing
“Worcester Restaurant Week”
Through September!!
1. Never take rooming
situations personally. If
someone doesn’t want to room
with you, it doesn’t mean they
don’t want to be your friend
anymore.
2. Ignore rule No. 1.
Everyone takes rooming situations personally. Tread softly
or there will be trouble.
3. If your roommate is
annoying you for some reason, talk to her about it before
complaining to the rest of the
campus community because
chances are your whining will
get back around to your roommate and the problem still
won’t be fixed.
4. If (and when) your
roommate tells all of campus about how obnoxious you
are because you
chew gum like a
cow, don’t be too

mad at her because you probably did the same thing about
the way she keeps her phone on
max volume at night. Instead of
causing WWIII, just chew with
your mouth closed.
your desks whenever the other
leaves the room.
Just take five minutes to
wash the dishes. Or if you can’t
bring yourself to do that, throw
the stupid things away.
5. Never, ever ask your
future roommate to add a
8. The best offense is a
good defense. Be the nice
third person to next year’s
rooming situation in front of
the said third party.
This will only anger your
future roommate because she
doesn’t actually have a choice.
What is she going to do, say
“No” to the third person’s face?
roommate. No matter how
grouchy and mean she is, smile
and pretend to care about her
problems.
She will feel mean complaining about the stupid little
things you do and she’ll be
forced to grin and bear it. It’ll
drive her nuts.
9. Most importantly, if
you don’t want to room with
someone, DO NOT room with
them. It’s not like letting her
borrow your favorite T-shirt
for the evening. This decision
lasts for a full school year, 24/7
every time you go to your own
room. You will have no escape.
It will be a disaster. You might
not make it out alive.
6. If your future roommate breaks rule No. 5,
ditch her. This is an early sign
of your being taken advantage
of, and it will only escalate as
time goes on.
Perhaps suggest a two-bedroom quad: she and the third
party can room together while
you keep a safe distance with a
fourth person on the other side
of the common room.
7. “Don’t get mad, get
even” is a very bad idea.
Nobody ever wants to be
even, they want to be one step
ahead.
Therefore things will only
escalate and pretty soon the
two of you will be passiveaggressively moving the dirty
dishes that neither of you will
claim back and forth between
10. If you happen to
find the perfect roommate, hold on to them and
don’t let go. After all, it’s not
like people who don’t care
about your obsession with clipping your toenails twice daily
come around often.

There are two types of people …
In the grand tradition of writers dividing the world into two
groups, I’ve come upon another
grand schism in the human
race. There is a fundamental difference that separates us into
two camps: Those who want
their weekends to be a rollercoaster ride of fun and excitement, and those who just want
their weekends to be relaxing.
I mean, I’m most certainly not
against going out on a Friday
night, or a Saturday night even,
but there’s not a lot of time in my
schedule for both. Besides the
regular load of schoolwork I
have to plow through on a given
weekend, I also usually have a
couple of newspaper articles to
pound out.
If I try to go out on two nights

then I’ll invariably fail to get
something done, and that’s not
even including what the aftermath of a particularly eventful
night can mean for one’s plans.
This is not to say I don’t understand the urge to treat the
weekend like a game that can
only be won by drinking and
smoking and dancing and yelling and laughing then rinsing
and repeating, but I simply don’t
have that same compulsion.
One night a weekend is fine with
me, and I gave up on Wednesday
nights long ago.
So, whether you prefer to
spend your weekend with a
book or a bottle in your hand,
enjoy in moderation. That
includes the guy with the book;
too much reading and too little
fun can be just as bad as the
opposite scenario.

one who may have told the
entire bar about the time she
was arrested topless. But that
was just one time.
Blarney Stone (79 Maywood
Street) — A sketchy bar in a
sketchy neighborhood. The
Blarney is deceptively close to
the Clark campus, and may be
within walking distance, but is
it worth it? Loud, obnoxious
guys trying to be the best at
pool or darts, or just being
overly vocal about the current
sports matchup on the TV
screen.
Pros: always a good place for
someone’s 21st birthday, and
definitely a fun place on Saint
Patty’s Day. Cons: I always get
sized up for at least 4 or 5
minutes by the bouncer checking my ID against my face.
Every single time.
Mezcal Tequila Cantina
(166 Shrewsbury Street) — The
restaurant is popular enough to
only accept dinner reservations
before 6 pm Fridays and Saturdays, but the bar is open to
all (if you can fit). The dinner
menu is a bit expensive for
college students at up to $23 an
entrée, but the tequila selection
is seriously impressive — 112
different brands in tasting,
margarita and pitcher sizes.
Pros: 3 types of guacamole
made at your table in front of
you, and an incredible dinner
menu.
Cons: crowded with middleaged people trying to convince
themselves they’re still “hip.”
A bowl of guacamole for 3 or 4
people is $10. Expensive enough
to only go here for special occasions.

Shopping fever
Have you ever noticed that
underclassmen who don’t have
cars on campus get extremely
excited when they go out to
dinner or to the store?
I
recently
brought a couple of my freshman
teammates to Blackstone to pick
up a few things
at Target, and
found myself
cracking up as
they basically
Allifim
ran from aisle
to aisle picking out things that they didn’t
actually need — like a set of
colored ceramic bowls just in
case they decide that one day
they want breakfast in the
room and their plastic bowls
simply don’t cut it.
Not to mention that we have
less than two weeks left of
school so I’m not particularly
sure why they need all this new
stuff that they’ve gotten by
without for the entire year.
Maybe they think it’ll look
nice packed up in boxes in their
basements for the summer.
To give them the benefit of
the doubt, I suppose the impractical purchases might be put to
use next year — that is, if the
girls don’t buy themselves new
things on one of next year’s
Target trips.
Regardless though, they had
fun and I’m sure their ceramic
bowls look great sitting on their
shelves right now.
This blog entry by Allifim, a senior
at the College of the Holy Cross,
“What have you done lately?”
he said as he stared at me. We
both knew I
would have to
speak next if
the
silence
would be broken at all.
“Well …” I said.
And finally, it
all came back
to me.
You
may
think that your M.R. Brown
time in college
is meant to study, party and get
by with a degree within an acceptable amount of years.
There is a time in your life for
everything, and that time is college.
However, what you choose to
do, or not do, within these four
years will determine your
potential for that menacing
afterlife known as a career.
Great grades, a chipper GPA
and a sprightly personality will
only get you so far.
It’s what you do outside of the
classroom that really gets you a
leg up.
Find work on campus in your
subject matter, paid or unpaid.
If you are looking for a communications position after college,
then join LVTV or work for the
college radio. Looking for an
English position somewhere?
Put in an application to the writing center or take on running
the school newspaper.
If two people apply for the
same radio gig, and one has better grades and the other has
field experience, it doesn’t take
a doctorate to figure out who to
hire.
Work within the classroom is
only half of the résumé. Getting
out into the field for experience
is what will separate you from
others.
This blog entry by M.R. Brown, a 2010
graduate of Worcester State College,
Hate picking courses? Here are some tips
Though I will never need to
spend time choosing classes
again, others will spend countless hours trying to find the
classes they want, the classes
they need and the right amount
of credits to graduate.
With that being said, let me
offer my experiences, and my
expertise, if you will, to those
who are currently trying to
figure out a
schedule. For
starters, make
sure that while
you are trying
to find interesting classes, you
are also taking
Greg Sebastiao care of most of
your class and
credit requirements. Also, you
want to make sure that you
don’t overload your schedule
with all classes that you need to
take.
Everyone needs a little break
once in awhile, so why not take a
break by taking something you
enjoy.
If you want to survive your
semester, then you’ll make sure
you have at least one class
where you can sort of sit back
and enjoy something you’re
doing.
Also, I suggest utilizing the
teachers and other students for
their knowledge on picking
classes.
Most questions that you’ll
have won’t be able to be answered online or in the course
catalog book. Seek help. It will
leave you less stressed and more
satisfied in the long run.
I’ll even throw in a little personal secret, take an internship
over the summer. Not only will
it be a great real world experience, but it will also help make
senior year a little easier by
allowing you to take four
courses one semester. Just work
hard and don’t be afraid to try
new things.
If you’re an English major,
why not dabble in a psychology
course if you have the desire or
you find something interesting
about a business course.
Try it. You don’t have to have
your mind made up when you
walk in here, and God knows
that most of us still probably
don’t have our minds made up
when we walk out of here.

Club Mint (18 Grafton Street)
— Billed as a “casually cool
atmosphere with LA/NY style
bravado,” Club Mint is a wannabe nightclub. It has all of the
ingredients — live bands and
DJs, plasma screen televisions
behind the bar showing music
videos, and flashing seizureinducing lights — Mint only
lacks people. It
could have just
been an “off”
night.
Pros: great
for a girls
night out, the
kind you get
dressed up for.
Similarly,
great for a
Louisa Gaylord guys night out
to pick up
chicks. Also, the most amazing,
cheap diner across the street
that’s open 24 hours.
Cons: the Canal district is far
enough away that you need a
car, and therefore, a designated
driver.
Moynihan’s Pub (897 Main
Street) — Moynies, founded in
1933 and family-run for generations is a surviving part of
“Old Worcester,” back when it
was something like the Hamptons of Massachusetts, and apparently not as dirty. It’s a
great place to just hang out, and
watch the interesting clientele
and apparent facial-hair enthusiasts. It’s within walking distance from campus, and is
always playing baseball or football on TV.
Pros: good selection of beers
on tap, juke box, pool tables, an
ATM, the ability to talk to others without yelling.
Cons: surprisingly empty on
a Thursday night, except for
some really sketchy old people,
