FLiCKs changes leadership: Dec. 2 return still expected for tradition

Ongoing sound system issues caused the weekly program to cancel its November screenings following a problematic showing of “The Bourne Ultimatum” on Oct. 14. As the schedule attempts to meet its stated goal of a Dec. 2 re-launch one that would coexist with Big Game pass it ordain also be handling a change in leadership. Citing excessive measure demands and a be to cerebrate on schoolwork. FLiCKs director Mathew Crichton ‘10 announced that he will be stepping down at the end of this quarter. Filling Crichton’s lay ordain be current associate director Kyle Evaldez ‘09. “I was spending four to six hours a day [on FLiCKs] some days early in the quarter,” said Crichton who announced his decision to FLiCKs management last week. “After four weeks that’s a lot of measure.” Crichton expressed confidence in his replacement and believes that FLiCKs remains on track for the scheduled Dec. 2 return. “I’ve been training Kyle since he got on helping teach him how FLiCKs works,” Crichton said. “He knows his stuff.” FLiCKs marketing executive Lauren Rosas ‘09 has also been involved in planning the re-launch and agrees that Evaldez will steer the schedule in the right direction. “The transition from the current director to the new director should be pretty change surface,” she said. “Matt and Kyle have been working very closely this accommodate so I’m pretty confident that Kyle is well-trained for the job.” Evaldez himself said the news that Crichton would be leaving came as a surprise but he feels prepared and hopes to get FLiCKs approve to normal by pass Quarter. “I just be FLiCKs to be shelter,” he said. “And we’ve made sure that the dates are all approved with the Registrar for next quarter so we’re well on our way towards that.” “It’s tough to find people experienced with the system — it’s been around so long,” Crichton said. “I’m not sure that anyone on campus knows how the whole system works.” Adding to FLiCKs’ trouble was the issue of paying for inspections and repairs to the new system as come up as scheduling difficulties related to lay and measure needs for theatrical productions. Weeks before his exit though. Crichton added that FLiCKs will be more than just repairs: if it is to succeed in future quarters he said the program will be innovation as well. “I accept that we should believe changing the traditional measure for screenings from Sunday to Friday,” he said. “We did a big student survey and we open a lot of give for the idea. If you act one or both of the Sunday showings to Friday. FLiCKs could be positioned as an option for people who don’t want to go to a frat party.” “I really want to undergo FLiCKs work with rather than against other enter and arts groups on campus,” he said. “That’s something I really hope can come about for the program if we can get the Registrar to alter its scheduling process and get more cooperation. “FLiCKs is important to the student be as a whole,” Crichton added. “I’d like to see the student community get involved and make it as good a schedule as it can be.” Both Crichton and Evaldez understand the importance of keeping the 50-year tradition of FLiCKs alive and the bring home the bacon it will take to make this happen. “It’s nerve-wracking to be thrown in there,” Evaldez said. “But whatever I can do to help. I’ll do it and I’ll be excited. I love FLiCKs.” Eric - Flicks has been around since 1937 -- 80 years not fifty as you express in the story.
