RED FLAGS AND FANGS Today, it’s normal to identify red and green flags when seeking out relationships. In 2025, we value partners and friends of the highest quality! Red flags can be anything from subjects you disagree on, to harmful behaviors that may affect your physical, emotional, or mental health. Put your flag-identification skills to the test at Red Flags and Fangs. There, you can sink your teeth into the movie Twilight with your adult eyes. While watching the movie, you can raise red and green flags to call out bad behaviors. Edward and Jacob may have seemed harmless when you were younger, but knowing what you know now…yikes. Oh! I forgot to mention: to show your support for stalking awareness month, wear sparkles. While stalking can be a debilitating situation, sparkles represent that victims should never feel the need to dull their sparkle. You won’t want to miss this interactive movie night for a great cause, hosted by Campus Activities and PATH. The start of the new year also marks the beginning of stalking awareness month. This January, show your support for victims of stalking and be aware of the warning signs.

In comparing culture from the 19th century and the 21st century, there has been great progress in women’s voices being uplifted. In the original Dracula, women were put on the back burner in terms of solving the mysteries surrounding vampires. Thankfully, in the feminist revenge fantasy, the women seek revenge for their silencing. The result is bold, confident, and not always ladylike characters who accomplish what men couldn’t before: the art of listening.
