SGA mid-year review:SGA Assembly membersexpress frustration atmissed opportunities

BY JENNIFER LEV ANEditor in Chief

In a Student Government As-sembly mid-year review led byRebecca Flynn, SGA presidentialassociate, and Esther Potter, parlia-mentarian, many Assembly mem-bers were critical of the Assembly'sperformance to date and expressedtheir goats for this semester.Mike DelIaMonaca, house sena-

tor of Freeman, said that although"[SGA's] sensitivity level is up,"many senators hesitate to engage inheated debate because they areafraid that someone' s feelings mightbe hurt.DellaMonaca said that this hesi-

tation had positive and negative ef-fects since. according toDellaMonaca, last year's Assem-bly got into heated arguments whichmore often than not led to personalattacks against senators.However, DellaMonaca said that

this sensitivity affects the issuesdebated, and he would like to seethe Assem bly focus on moreimpor-tant issues."Unfortunately, this year it seems

like we're taking a cautious ap-proach," DellaMonaca said.'" don't know if we're scared or

what., but I'd like to see us take onthose bigger, scarier issues," saidDellaMonaca.DellaMonaca added that, in com-

parison to last year, senators' atten-dance at Assembly meetings, as wellas participation in SGA Tuesdaynight dinners, is better.

Potter expressed some frustra-tion with the Assembly's record offocusing attention on action itemsor issues which involve short termresults. She cited issues such asdissatisfaction with the new en-ergy conservation lighting, the newjuice machines, and problems withthe dorm access phones.

"Most students are interested ingen ed, but most are like: Whatmatters to me today is geuing aphone into my building," said Pot-ter.Pottersaid that she would like to

see the Assembly tackle issueswhich pertain to students in a moremeaningful way.Catherine Lippman, president of

the junior class, said that she wassomewhat frustrated at theAssembly's lack offollow throughon its own recommendations."If a proposal passes, I don't

know why it isn't put-into action,and I don 'tknow if that's supposedto be pan of our job, or what," saidLippman.Megan Hughes, house senator

of KB, said that she wanted to seea more active Assembly this se-mester. "I think we should stoptalking about issues and actuallydo something about them," saidHughes.Neil Maniar, president of the

senior class, said that he hopesmembers of the Assembly willworker harder at truly representi ngtheir constituents."I think we need to go out and

affairs, said that general education-will be a topic the Assembly willfocus on next semester.Roark said the Educational Plan-

ning Committee will hold meetingswith faculty and students to discussthe new plans in February. How-evcr.asof now Roark has no sched-ule for the open meetings.

Catherine Lippman, junior classpresident and EPC member, saidthat threeEPC subcommittees havedeveloped three working plans, twoof which were presented at the lasttwo faculty meetings.According to Roark, theEPC will

decide in March on which of thcthree working plans they will use.In April they will decide how tomake students fulfill general edu-cation requirements throughout allfour years of college and the finalvote will be held on May 4.

However, Roark said that nomatter what plan is voted on, it willnot be implemented immediately,

and students will not be able to alteror change the plan once the facultyvotes on it.Roark emphasized that the SGA

has no jurisdiction over the EPe."We have absolutely no recourse

if they vole it in," Roark said.However, Savecna Dhall, presi-

"Saintliness" found in chapelI have always loved going to the Chapel. Whether it is Saturday Mass, an a cappella concert, or a musical

theater producuon; I have always been happy to enter it. The weathervane, the slate steps, the hangingchandeliers, all contribute to the chapel's aura. But it was not until last Monday that I realized from where thetrue beauty of the Chapel came from .I had an application that needed to be postmarked by Monday and realized three days before that I needed

another recommendation from a non-professor. So, I called Father Larry at the very last rnmute and he camethrough with a high quality recommendation which I was 10 pick up in the Chapel Office on Monday. Now,l

chapel basement to get the letterand realized that I needed to photo- .copy two pages of the application.The secretary, Molly Helms,seemed very nice but I feared that ifI asked her to usc her machine shewould tum into one of those eviloffice workers in certain Fanningoffices; who glare, turn me downflat, and then cackle as I walk outdenied, when I ask them to photo-copy something. I was pretty surethat the Post Office closed a14:30,and I didn't think I'd be able to

make it if! had to stop at the Library on the way. I asked her with the sorriest looking face I could manage, andshe gave me a huge smile and said "Sure you can!

Here's what happened. I got one of those silentmessage things from the CONNThought editor say-ing that hc needed me to write something.

This sortofhurt me becauseiCwas like getting it form leuer on voice mail. Iexpccted him· to send another message saying that Iwon a million bucks from EdMcMahon. Anyway, I putthese powerful emotionsaside and sal down to writean impassioned leuer de-scribing the questionable fu-tllre of democracy in Nige-ria, but then my friend (we'llcall him "Henry") said lOme,"Hey wait, you can'1 write<1boutworld events in TheCollege Voice.

Substance-free students seek new housing planLast Wednesday we held a meeting for people who thought

they might be interested in substance-free housing for the1994-1995 academic year. We attempted to send a messagethrough thehoiJsefellows, and some decided it wasn't impor-tant dorm information. We hung up signs, and people torethem down. We are not asking that the campus becomesubstance free, we're simply requesting respect for our deci-sion to be substance-free.

Why the refusal to admit the existence of people who aresubstance free? Two years ago one student decided that shewanted a substance-free environment, so she went to thehousing committee and put together a floor. Last year thatnumber tripled, and a second floor was added. Now, as we tryto plan for next year, to estimate numbers and assessneeds,students are thwarting our every attempt.

We think substance-free is a very important part of Conn'shousing options. We also acknowledge that there are prob-

lems with its current implementation. Noo substance-freestudents housed in Freeman last spring were unhappy to findtheir room choices limited to the first two floors. Argumentsflourished throughout the first semester in Freeman housecouncil around how to deal with the holiday party. Theundefined compromise between the substance-free floors andFreeman tower have created problems for all involved. Ad-mittedly, other people are caught up in working out the kinksof a relatively new housing option.

We have many plans for substance-free housing next year.We're working on proposals for the housing committee sothat something can be worked out to meet the varied needs ofthe people who choose to live in substance-free housing, aswell as those who live nearor below us. As oneof thesenewoptions, we're looking into creating a quiet floor within thesubstance-free living space, but our primary objective is tocreme a substance-free dorm.

Having a dorm would allow us to haveourown (substance-free) Holiday Party without forcing our views on otherpeople. Itwould allow us to have our own SAC representa-tives to plan events which don't involve alcohol. It wouldalleviate the problem of our living under the lower, and of ourliving above other floors that are not substance-free.

There will be an open meeting of the housing committeesometime in the near future for people on both sides of thisissue to express their views, and we hope much of thecommunity gets involved.

Speech Codes:

Whatever happened to constitutionality at Conn?harassment policy would be written and upheld to protect those who are being harassed.Itis not written to takeaway free speech. It is written to protect those who are being abused.We still have our free speech. And to my understanding the harassment policy written inthe C-Book is perfectly legal.

Okay, are you still following me on this? Connecticut College does not have SpeechCodes. We do have freedom of speech and freedom of the press, as well as a harassmentpolicy. So why do some people feel that we don't? Well, I think it is because of theindividual's, or perhaps the community's, attitude. There is a pressure to be politicallycorrect.

Nowhere is it written that one must be politically correct, but at times most of us haveprobably felt we had to be. Many of you may remember the incident that occurred lastsemester inwhich someone putup anti-homosexual signs inresponse to the cross-dressingdance at Unity. If ~e had Speech Codes, don't you think this person would have beenpunished? To my ~owledge. that person was not.I would like to sa)' that 1 think the harassment policies need to be rewritten. Now )IOU

may be confused since above Ijust defended the policies, Let me explain. 1do not lhinkthat there are Speech Codes hidden lVidlin me harasSl71enr poHcy.

Lei srewrite the policy so that it protects everyone from harassment We have ~Iked roo much

about Speech Codes. Let's not waste any more time. . .If you get a chance, look at the C-Book. Look at the harassment policy and the bill of

rights. Decide for yourself. Talk to your house senator or class president and let them know

what you think.

You can't read by the light ofa ... glowing stick of butter?I realize that it is highly unlikely that anything will be

done about this, but I must complain about the new lights.I came back from break to find a new light fixture in myroom in Burdick, Ipulled the chain, and a dim brown glowappeared. After about ten minutes that comer was lit withthe nair of Pepto-pink vomit.Iunderstand that these new lights were installed to save

energy, but did anyone really think this through? Iused tohave" very nice fixture with a 100 watt bulb thathtthe roomsufficiently well, and instantly. Now, I've got this sickeningglow in a comer, three desk lamps and another table lamp,and I have to use them all just to see into my closet!

Who came up with this idea? I'll grant that saving energyis a grand idea, but this is a college. People in college aresupposed to read. This new light is possibly the worstreading light that I have ever seen in my life. Whoever madethis decision should try to read a textbook under this light,then they might understand.

And, after all, we began as settlers of newsocial space in 1911, with women's education, In 1963,during the civil rights movement, we took a lead role inchanging race relations, and in 1969 we were leaders inchanging gender relations with co- education. In the '80s, wesettled new social space between the College and the commu-nity through the enormous growth of our student volunteerservice. Over the next ten years, we must become a schoolwhose reason for being is defined by a willingness lOexpandthe model of a civil society to the global community.One way to pursue this goal, I think, is to ask the faculty to

be willing to reach even beyond its current commitments, LOtake more risks. Ibelieve that over the next decade we mustbecome a school where the vast majority of the faculty hasstudied and taught in less technologically advanced societiesthan our own, Our students will be among the most pri vileged15 percent of the world's people - the "haves." They willinfluence profoundly the well-being of the other 85 percent- the world's "have nots." Whatever life pursuit our studentschoose, they must be people whose education is fundamen-tally non sibi. Not for self but for others. It is our job to helpthem know those others, but we cannot help them to knowothers whom we have not sought to know ourselves.In 1994, 80 percent of the world's population cannot be

confident of the survival of its first children. Tbose- peopleshould expect us lO hear the simple sentence that describestheir daily life: "We suffer." A faculty whose members havepersonally seen this world, its hopes and wholeness, its fearsand pain, a faculty whose members have spent time livingandlearning in these environments; that faculty will teach anydiscipline differently because it will be transformed by itsexperience and will more vividly see that a major goal ofteaching and learning is to enable people to know and helpothers.

NewsCollege reevaluates sanctions:.Students charged with fraud allowed back on team

BY APIuL ONlllS

NewsEdUorTwo students who were charged

with credit card fraud last Novem-ber have recently been reinstated tothe men's basketball team.Sophomores Andre Wright and

Akida Bailey were suspended fromthe team last semester,According to information from

the Clerk's Office of the New Lon-don Superior Court, both Wrightand Bailey's cases will be contin-ued to December 23 of 1994, wasgranted accelerated rehabilitation.Accelerated rehabilitation is a state-run form of non-reporting proba-lion which lasts from three months[0 two years.

Acoording 10 a staff member atthe Clerk's Office, as long as thereis no violation during the probationperiod. the charges against Wrightand Bailey will be dropped.- Robert Hampton, dean of the col-lege, explained the deans' decisionto allow the Iwo to return 10 extra-curricular activities."When sanctions are imposed,

those sanctions can be reevaluatedor modified," said Hampton.Hampton said thai judgmenlS

from state and local courts are takeninto account in terms revisiting thecollege's sanctions against individu-als."That can also be influential, al-

though the college's [judicial sys-tem] is certainly separate from [the

jurisdiction of Slate and local gov-ernments), n said Hampton.Hampton also said that a similar

situation occurred a few years ago.when a student athlete committedan offense while using drugs.According to Hampton, this stu-

dent was allowed to participate inathletics after a period of rehabilita-tion when the deans reevaluated hispunishmentHampton said, ''There's prece-

dent for these actions [which re-eva luate sanctions,) but you also tryto tailor decisions lO specific indi-viduals and circumstances."Both Hampton and Catherine

Wood Brooks, dean of student life,denied that Wright and Bailey hadbeen given preferential treatment

simply because they are basketballplayers.Hampton spoke on the purpose

behind imposing sanctions againstindividuals who have broken thecollege's honor code."The purpose of any sanctions

are to be educational, not punitive."said Hampton:"Clearly the college has a respon-

sibility to the comm unity and to the[sanctioned) individuals. At nopointwould we expose the community toexceptional risk [in terms of recidi-visrn.]" said Hampton.James Poff, the individual whose

credit card was allegedly used byWright and Bailey, said, "I thinkthat the student body has questionsconcerning the administration's

handling of litis situation, and we,as a community, have a .right tosome answers."Bailey defended the college's

decision to relax his and Wright'spunishments."I can't speak on college poli-

cies, or on what the deans ought todo, " said Bailey. "But I think thedeans were firm, but also fair, inwhat they did. Basketball is justsomething I'm using to get myselfback on track."Both Wright and Bailey said that

restriction from playing basketballwas only part of their initial punish-ment.According to Hampton, Wright

and Bailey, other sanctions are stillin place.

-NewsAssembly debates over fateof monthly SGA newsletter

BY APRn. ONDISN~sEdilOr

At the heart of debate at lastThursday 's Assembly meeting werequestions concerning whether theStudent Government Associationhad the right to censor, or edit, theSGA newsletter, a publication pro-duced by the SGA public relationscommittee.The controversy surrounded

whether Jesse Roberts, editor of theSGA newsletter, should have madecertain remarks in the editor's notehe wrote in response to a piece sub-mitted to the newsletter by ChrisMcDaniel, house senator of JA.The issue was raised during the

Assembly meeting when copies ofthe newsletter were passed out tohouse senators for distribution totheir dorms.Many Assembly members

seemed to feel that Roberts' editor'snote, which focused in part on thefact that McDaniel had submittedhis piece to the newsletter past its

deadline, "regardless of numerousdeadline extensions and masspleading," also Slated that peoplelike McDaniel were responsiblefor "creating a vacuum of aware-ness within the college cornmu-nity."Roberts said, "I found Chris

McDaniel's article really negativeto SGA and to the student popula-tion at large and I intended my noteto show that the newsletter to be amore positive forum for findingthings out. Iwanted to show that,despite his belief, there are peoplethat do care.""One of the [public relations]

committee's jobs is making these.people look better, and sometimesthey don't make that very easy,"said Roberts.The Assembly debated off the

record for approximately one houruntil Jennifer Scott, SAC chair,proposed to settle the issue with avote. The Assembly decided tostrike Roberts' editor's note with aVOleof 15-9-3.

Rebecca Flynn, SGA presiden-tial associate and former editor inchief of the College Voice, said thatRoberts' editor's note was inappro-priate since, according to TheAsso-ciated Press Stylebook and LibelManual, editors' notes are onlymeant to correct factual inaccura-cies in the articles they respond to.

really thought of newsletter in termsof what kind of news I was present-ing," said Saliba.

Black History Month officially kicked off withmayoral address and student performances

BY SHELOHAM PAYNEThe College Voice

Students, faculty, and adminis-trators gathered in the CoffeeGround last week to kick off theopening ceremony for Black His-tory Month.JaneGlover, mayor of New Lon-

don, gave the opening remarks atthe comencement ceremony whichconsisted of dramatic monologues,poetry readings, and musical selec-tions.Glover, a nativeofNebraska, who

earned her bachelor of science de-gree from Peru Slate in Nebraskaand her masters from the Universityof Rhode Island, spoke on how"smoke filled rooms still exist forwomen." Glover focused on theidea Ofasmoke filled room inwhichmen look down the women andblacks in an exclusive club-typeaunosphere.

Glover also noted that we shouldalways remember that Black His-tory takes more than a month, ittakes forever. Glover encouragedthe young people of today not to gettired. "Rosa Parks and man y othersbought us here-because they didn'tget tired. Take a risk. Progress ismadc by those who stand up andlake a risk," Glover said."Everyone knows," Glover con-

tinued, "that there was a black li-. brarian at the New London PublicLibrary."Glover's speech was followed by

Naribe Holden, co-chair of Umoja,who gave an overview of the back-ground on Black History Month,illustrating the life of Dr. Carter GWoodson. Woodson, a historianknown as the father of modem blackhistoriography, began the traditionof Black History month by havingaNegro history week in February.This later developed into an entire

Gaudiani embraces serviceBY YUKI TESSITORE

Associate News Editor

Claire Gaudiani, president of the college, has re-cently outlined her new vision for students and facultyinvolvement in. "service learning" in her letter to thecollege community titled Respectfully Submitted,"Respectfully Submitted is really about understand-

ing the relationship between a college community likeours and the needs of the community," said Gaudiani.Gaudiani said that she believes that an integral

aspect of this college's distinctiveness which preparesstudents to serve in the community can be traced backto the principles upon which it was founded.Unlike many other small, liberal arts schools, said

Gaudiani, Connecticut College was not "founded bymembers of a religious community who intended tospread the tenets of their beliefs."I believe that the distinctive value of Connecticut

College in 1994 is that we are the only highly selectiveliberalarts college whose honor code and commitmentto community service were never shaped by areligiousuadition, and began with the college itself," wroteGaudiani in Respectfully Submitted.Gaudiani stressed that the college's founders ac-

complished this by recognizing and secularizing prin- .ciplessuch as the need to live under an honorcode, Itis this pluralism which is the foundation of a civilsociety,Gaudiani said, since it allows for religious andindividual diversity."Our honor code, our high commi tment to volunteer

service,and our explicit struggle to share governanceandcommon vision make us a distinctive and valuablemodel of a civil society formed and sustained bydiversepoints of view," wrote Gaudiani ..Gaudiani was recently made chair of the board of

CampusCompact, a national coalition of college anduniversitypresidents which integrates community andpublicservice in highereducation with civic responsi-bilityin student learning.According to an informational pamphlet about

CampusCompact, one of the purposes of the organiza-tionis to promote a continuing national discu~sion onservice and to support concerted action among itsmembers.Tracee Reiser, director of the Office of Volunteer

Community Services said, "President Gaudiani hasbeeninvolved with Campus Compact and communityservicefor years. To become the chair is an honor ...and will strengthen the college's involvement in ser-viceandhelp build a campus-wide culture into service-leaming." .Gaudiani said that "attaching academic institutions

to service" is achievable through three possible mcth-ods,onebeing"'service leamingin the curriculum builtby faculty and students."Gaudiani also said that by having faculty and stu-

dentsdo volunteer work, "we can foster developmentin specific community service projects."According to Gaudiani, "we need a place where

Collegesand universities understand how to continueservice careers and volunteer services in post-stu-

dents' lives." An example of efforts to promotethis idea is "developing training for PresidentClinton's National Service Act effort," saidGaudiani.Much of Respectfully Submitted outlines a

plan for the college within the context ofGaudiani's vision of Lheyear 2004. "Ten yearsfrom now, college communities will be seen asplaces that are redefining the social contract inour democracies and democracies around theworld ...by connecting knowledgc and analysisand critical thinking in a set of circumstances inday to day human challenges that people facewhose lives are less privileged in terms of educa-tion and time for reflection than arc those of uswho are privileged to spend time in academicsettings," said Gaudiani.Gaudiani said that the obstacles to this vision

lie in "incentive structures Incommunities ...college presidents and facultyneed to reexamine the criteria for promotions,tenure and merit so service to others becomespart of the way people succeed in the process ofcareer building in higher education.'As a member of. the executive committee of

Campus Compact for one and a half years,Gaudiani has consistently applied for grantswhich would give Connecticut College the op-portunity to incorporate service with learning.One of the factors in establishing Gaudinni's

concept of service-learning is obtaining facultygrants. According to Reiser, last summer fivefaculty members were invited to participate in aweek long workshop in Colorado which focusedon integrating service with academics.In returning, they formed an action plan to

develop the Center for Community Challenges,which will be "a college and community entity -which recognizes challenges and uses volunteerand academic resources to examine and provideprograms to address these problems," s~'ljd·Reiser.Gaudiani said that the Center will provide a

"research arm ...building and developing a civil society within

the community ... [which will serve as a] modelwe can continue to learn from."

Through the Office of Volunteer CommunityServices, Reiser said that she hopes to promoteservice-learning through forming a "partnershipwith the community to see how we can worktogether [and incorporate] an active experientialcomponent of studying in site-related areas."Reiser added that "interdisciplinary approach toacademics is necessary to create a response thatis more knowledgeable and comprehensive."According to Campus Compact, service is the

key to a higher education because "through serv-ing, students confront a range of social and eco-nomic concerns and work with people of differ-ent cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds,races and ages."

If you alreadyhave plans. put this piece aside be-cause you don't need to know thatyou'll be missing what promises tobe a tremendously exciting FacultyDance Concert (and make sure yourefer to it as a "concert" and not a"recital," as Kim Nofsinger, visit-ing assistant professor of dance,harShly chastised this ignorant re-porter when I called it a recital).. This concert is laking place at8:00 p.m. in Palmer Auditorium,and if you attend on Friday, youhave the added bonus of being ableto attend a post-show reception inthe Dana Hall foyer, not that thisevent needs anything to make itmore enticing.Thirty faculty and staff perform-

If you build it, they will come.Then again, maybe they won't. Itseems thata combination of studentapathy and low finances has gener-ated problems for the Film Society.Although many of this year's

films are of comparable quality tothose shown in the past, attendancehas been surprisingly low. Accord-ing to Todd Maguire, president ofthe Film Society, the Society nowhas approximately six hundred dol-

more to tempt you with _..Adhering to the idea that variety

is the spice of life, the faculty ispresenting the show with a liUle bitof everything, from classical musicto the Winnipeg Polka Kings, from

. the serious to the very comic. SallaSaarikangas-Kramer, a one-year

visiting professor from Finland, hasa piece in the program that honorsthe late Fellini, a "posthumcrous"piece, as Nofsinger put it.Nofsinger also has a work fea-

tured in the concert titled "WhenTears No Longer Fill Me," a large'group piece based on his personal

lars remaining in its budget whichis enough to show approximately'three good films (the average filmin recent release costs about twohundred dollars).The demise of Castle Court, a

group independent of the Film So-ciety that has traditionally shownmovies in recent release, left a holein thecampus movie industry. WhenCastle Court went bankrupt as aresult of competition from the FilmSociety, the Society was left to fillall student movie-going needs. TheFilm Societvtraditionally has shown

experiences with AIDS. The piece,one of the show's premieres, ispartof a trilogy that has been supportedby An Over AIDS and of whichsections have been performed allover the country.With strong images based on the

recent midwestern flooding, thispiece examines the individualagainst the community, strength,and disclosure, and promises to bevery moving.The three members of the four-

person dance department staff per-forming in theconcenare Nofsinger,Saarikangas-Kramer, and Anne-Alexandra Packard, co-chair of thedepartment. The faculty's fourthnon-performing but contributingmember, Michelle Mose, is a one-year visiting professor fromTrinidad.With three new people on a four-

person faculty, the dance depart-ment has undergone some seriouschanges and is full of fresh, innova-tive ideas. According to Nofsinger,this fresh blood has brought "newlife" to the department, which is thestrongest it has been in years. Healso believes that the students, withthis upcoming concert in particular,have taken on responsibilities thatdidn't exist before in performances.

interest. "A senior said, "Although I used

to go a lot during my freshman andsophomore year 1 didn't really gothis year. Maybe it was the lack ofpublicity."

However, Maguire said, "Thepublicity has been excellent. 1don'tthink there is anyone reason toblame. It is definitely a combina-tion of many things."Maguire added, "1 have been

working with the idea of trying toget a big name film to show inPalmer. There are other people thatI have to talk to before that canhappen. Mark Hoffman has alsobeen extremely helpful and we havetalked about the possibi lity of show-ing films in the Class of 1962 Room.Whatever the case, I can probablyshow three movies in Oliva Hall.Hopefully that will raise funds andmaybe I can show something else,"Maguire said the movies shown

last semester included: ReservoirDogs. Scarface, Aliens, and Preda-tor, all popular films yet they hadsurprisingly low attendance.Maguire said this is what causedhim to cancel several of the films."There was a lot of controversy

over my decision to cancel severalfilms. Many people were angry. Iwould have canceled more. It be-

Everyone seems very excited, andafter talking to Nofsinger, so was I.The vast majority of the college

community docs not realize thewonderful reputation of our dancedepartment. In the annual RegionalsAmerican College Dance FestivalAssociation, Connecticut Collegeis known for its excellent perfor-mance, particularly in student cho-reography. Also, the dance dc-partment, though small, offers anamazing variety. Mose teachcs Car-ibbean dances, and Nofsingerleaches classes in ballroom, jazz,and country line dancing, to sitesome examples. Packard has audi-tioned for Fresh Tracks in New YorkCity. which features ncwly choreo-graphed and staged works. An im-pressive array of professors, nodoubt.

And you too can sec the wonder-ful work they do on February 18and 19. If you have never attendeda dance evcru at Conn, here's yourchance. The excitement is in theair, and ifthaL doesn't do it for you,the professional outside lightingdesigner asked to work on the con-cert is named "Blu." 1Lpromises tobe a fantastic show, so mark yourcalendar today.

As of today, the Film Society isfinancially stable, said Maguire,although there is little flexibilitywith limited resources. It is verydifficult LO compete when almosteveryone has a VCR and a Block-buster membership card, Maguireadded.The future of the Film Society is

certainly in question. It will be leftto 2 or 3 people to run the society."My goal is to make certain that

the Society docs not end the year indebt, I also hope that someone isthere to take the lead next yearbecause.after all, I am gone in threemonths. If anyone has any suggcs-tions, I would be happy to hearthem," Maguire said.

Watching Film Society go theway of Castle Court seems to be anunfortunate possibility. Accordingto one sophomorc, "If the Film So-cieLy goes, then the next lime <J

-As one of the final performancesin the Concert and Artist Series,world renowned concert pianistPeter Orth played in Palmer Audi-torium this past Friday night.Orth has won numerous awards

for his performances, including the1979 Naumberg InternationalCompetition's First Prize, and the92nd Stree{Y's "Shura CheerkassyRecital Award."The Washington Post praises the

prize winning pianist by saying"Peler Orth plays the piano beauti-fully. There is constant evidence ofcareful thought behind all that hedocs, and he offers a wide range ofdynamic levels, frequentlymakingusc of a lovely, quiet lone."Orth has collaborated with such

orchestras as the Philadelphia Or-chestra, the New York Philhar-monic, the Prague Symphony, theOrchestra Symphonique Francais,theResidente Orkest of the Hague,aswell as with the Colorado, Auryn,Muir,Concord, and Audubon Quar-tets.Orth's program consisted of

Beethoven's Sonata in E major.Opus 109; Schumann's Fantasy inCmajor, Opus 17; Barber's Sonata,Opus 26; Chopin's Berceuse in DFlatmajor, Opus 57, and his BalladeNumber Four in F major, Opus 52,as well as an encore piece whichwas not listed in the program.Orth showed his prowess early
