Sydney White - The Modern Snow White

The new version of Snow White but still based on the same theme. 'Sydney White' could also be entitled as Sydney White and the Seven Dorks. Sydney White is the daughter of a plumber. She was grown up by her father since her mother died when she was about nine.When it is the time for her to further her study, Sydney earns a scholarship. She wishes to follow the legacy of her mother and enter the Kappa Phi Nu sorority. The presence of Sydney attracts the attention of Tyler Prince; ex-boyfriend of the Kappa President, Rachel Witchburn. Sydney is seen as attractive in her own way which makes Rachel jealous and tries to get rid of her. However, the story ends as in the fairy tale where Sydney and Prince live happily after and Witchburn is defeated.
The role of feminine is highlighted in the story. Before this, Rachel Witchburn plays an important role in making decision regarding the students affair. The presence of Sydney in the college shows that she has the ability to change the lives of the seven dorks; 'The Vortex' and at the same time she fights for the rights of the minorities. She gets one of them, Terrance, to run for Student Body President in order to take back their rights. When those dreams are denied, Sydney runs for President herself. In conclusion, the story proves that females have the ability to change the world even though they are always regarded as 'fragile' by some men.
