New Acquisitions - October 2013

Been a while, hasn't it? Since the start of the semester, we've had a slew of new DVDs show up in in the library. You might be most interested in big names like The Great Gatsby and the second season of HBO's Girls, but the past few months of acquisitions cast a very wide and intriguing net. Perhaps you're interested in Midnight's Children, based on the Salman Rushdie novel. If history isn't your think, consider the documentary about legendary transhuman futurist Ray Kurzweil. Or you may want to watch a lecture about privilege from noted activist Tim Wise.

Dare you go out on a limb and watch Executive Koala, the bizarre Japanese film about a white-collar koala?

Read on for a full list...
