Oct. 25, 2010 While browsing through some of The Commonwealth Times' archives, we found a little piece of history. Take a look at this article that was written 10 years ago outlining WVCW's history and CT's and The Vine's (now Ink Magazine) history.
Also, don't forget to come to our Halloween Party this Thursday from 7-9 p.m. at the SMC, 817 W. Broad St. It's hosted by WVCW, but all other SMC organizations will be here as well. Come grab free crandy and participate in WVCW's costume contest. We promise, it'll be fun.

Presenting the October
Midmonth Media Movie Monday
All the President's Men
Watergate. "Follow the money." "You can call me Deep Throat."
VCU's Student Media Center proudly presents the classic tale of two young, unseasoned journalists struggling to uncover crimes so enormous they reach into the office of the most powerful man in the world. Based on the true story of Woodward and Bernstein and starring Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford, All the President's Men was nominated for eight Oscars (it won two). It's a great thriller with magnetic performances and a great villain ... who happens to be Richard Nixon.
7 p.m.
