Out of all the questions a typical student here is bombarded with, perhaps the first one that should be asked is, "Excuse me, but what exactly is your talent?" In fact, where has all the talent gone? The truth is, one shouldn't have to search and scour the campus of a university such as Case to be both entertained and inspired by fellow classmates, which is why Global Medical Initiative's third Annual A Cappella for Africa provided a spark to the indolent, waning weeks of our fall semester.
Global Medical Initiative, headed by junior president John Heintz, is a student group dedicated to promoting awareness of global health issues, often by means of raising money for developing areas in need. This year's A Cappella for Africa program particularly benefited medical clinics in Kampala, Uganda, dedicated to tuberculosis research. With free admission and recommended donations of $2 to 5, GMI was able to fill The Spot and generate nearly $400 in funds for their project, a number Heintz deemed great. Yet while the mission and money generated is commendable, the true pleasure of the evening came on behalf of Case's singing finest. Speakeasy, Men's Glee Club, Bigger than a Breadbox, Case In Point, Solstice, and Dhamakapella each brought their "A" game to entertain at The Spot with the eclectic audience of pre-meds, overjoyed friends, and accomplices.
