"Summertime Blues" is one of the most covered songs in pop music history. Perhaps because everyone knows what it's like sitting indoors and staring at a ceiling fan, waiting for school to start and praying for a cold front. Louisiana summers make us dream of exotic locales and tropical getaways - anything to beat the humidity. But you can blow those blues away with just a step out your front door. They might not be Disney World, but hey, some destinations are just a wish upon a star away.

Arthur Kaul, a professor and assistant director of the School of Mass Communication and Journalism, died Tuesday afternoon at home of cancer.
"Art has probably touched more lives that just about anybody," said Denise von Herrmann, interim dean of the College of Arts and Letters. "It's a tremendous loss. I don't think you can ever replace someone like him."
Kaul, a native of St. Louis, joined the USM faculty in 1984. He was given the University's Excellence in Teaching award in 1989, as well as many other awards during his service at Southern Miss.
Kaul served on the Faculty Senate for a number of years and was president of that organization from 1999-2000. He also served on a number of university and professional committees.
Students, faculty and alumni were touched by the news of Kaul's death.
"My heart was honestly saddened to know that Dr. Kaul won't be with us anymore," said Brittany Brown, a senior journalism major from Lucedale. "He was an exceptional professor and a wonderful person. He's been a mentor of mine for the past four years."
Joel McNeece, a 1994 graduate of Southern Miss, contacted The Student Printz via e-mail Wednesday after hearing of Kaul's death.
"My career in journalism can be traced back to one man- Dr. Art Kaul," McNeece said.
McNeece said Kaul pushed him to be a better journalist.
"Despite my many efforts to share with Dr. Kaul the tremendous impact he had on my life and career, I don't think he ever truly understood, mostly due to his own humility," McNeece said.
Chris Campbell, director of the School of Mass Communication and Journalism, had a unique relationship with Kaul, having first been his student and then colleague.
"He's absolutely the best teacher I've ever had," Campbell said. "And to know him as a colleague, I relied on him a lot."
