As you know if you saw our announcement yesterday, Think Magazine has merged with The Stony Brook Press. Thinkr will also be transitioning in accordance with these changes - you might have noticed our URL has changed from thinkmag to sbpress. We’re working on changing things like the theme, so be on the lookout for a redesign soon!

We’re excited to maintain a Tumblr presence for the new Press, but we do have one problem: We have no idea what to call this thing. “Pressr” just doesn’t have much of a ring to it. So we’re opening it up to our followers: any ideas?

Ducky Doolittle Loves U.

“So let’s talk about fucking, all right?” Ducky Doolittle said as she stood in front of a crowd of about 200 students on Wednesday night in the SAC Auditorium.

Invited to the Stony Brook University campus for the fifth time by the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Association (LGBTA), Ducky brought with her not only sex toys, but a new program titled Sex on Campus/Love U.

Ducky Doolittle is not only a sex educator and a sexual assault counselor, but both a self-proclaimed “badass” and “awesomesexual” (the only kind of people that she sleeps with are awesome).

She strutted around stage in a black mini-dress and massive stilettos, words like “cock” “twat” and “pussy” dropping multiple times in a minute.

Visionary Leader of Apple Ascends to the Great iCloud in the Sky: The Life of Steve Jobs

This column usually doesn’t cover the people behind the creation of the gadgets and gizmos that we love, but for this week, there will be an exception. Steve Jobs, a man known for founding Apple Computer Inc. (since changed to Apple Inc.), and later steering it to success with the introduction of many innovative products, died Wednesday in Palo Alto, California, at the age of 56. Mr. Jobs’ death concludes a long battle with pancreatic cancer, the reason for his resignation as CEO of Apple last month. Apple confirmed the news via a press release, as well as on its website, dedicating their entire home page to his visage. As a tribute, I would like to use this week’s column to focus on the life and legacy of one of the most influential and charismatic characters in Silicon Valley.

New Center for the Arts, Years in the Making, An Important Test of New Administrative Structure

Seeking to cut back on administrative costs, art departments at Stony Brook University are combining under a new Center for the Arts, which will include the Staller Center’s performance space.

The new center has been under discussion for years, according to the university, but the actual implementation of it could happen very soon.

“Discussions of a Center for the Arts arose out of the Strategic Planning Process in December of 2009 and the plans have yet to be finalized,” said university spokesman James Montalto.

Even so, sources within the art departments say that the new Center for the Arts could be “taking effect this semester.”

Long Island Makes a Case for Funds at SUNY Showcase

The five SUNY campuses on Long Island made an appeal to the governor’s office for funding on Wednesday when a panel led by SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher and the campus presidents hosted the SUNY Showcase in the Wang Center.

Long Island is one of the 10 regions that will be competing for, as Zimpher put it, “millions and millions of dollars” in funding as part of Governor Andrew Cuomo’s regional economic development plan.

Zimpher and the five presidents each spoke on behalf of SUNY and Long Island, although Zimpher plans on holding similar events with SUNY schools in each of the other nine regions.
