‘TIIB heat 0' thflil‘ culture’

Center bend
helps stnden ts
find inner bent

By Anne Gillespie

Contributing ll 'riti r

Sandra Cairo asks the crowd to
move their chairs into an intimate cir-
cle. She sits down and wraps her leg
around a drum. The drum is splashed
with the colors of her culture. and holds
strings of shells that represent prospcriv
ty'. She closes her eyes and begins to
beat. ’l‘he sound echoes and fills any
etnpty space in the room with rhythm.

Yesterday in Peal (tallery' at the .\l.l.
King Library. Sandra Cairo. the new
pro tram coordinator at the Martin
l.ut er King _lr. Cultural Center. pre—
sented a lecture called “Dance as a l 10.11-
ing Art: An African—American ’l‘reasure."

She divided her lecttire into three
parts: dance as a stirvival tool. dance as
a metaphor for emotional healing, and
dance as a physical exercise.

Cairo gave a lesson on African cul—
ture and explained the culture focuses
on the energy of individuals, the con—
nection of communities, harmony of
nature and man, oral history and the
concept of“spiral time."

“\\'e are all made up of ener ry
Cairo said. “\\'e are held together )y a
magnetic force. l can affect your ener—
gy. you can affect my energy. Because
time is spiral and not linear, I can
affect my grandchild’s energy."

Cairo said in African culture, art and
dance are natural expressions of oiie‘s
feelings, whereas in \Vestern cultures
they are enjoyed by an elite few. In the
African culture dance is about life.

Cairo said Africans dance to express
their pain, to communicate with oth—
ers, to honor members of their C()lllv
inunity', to condition their bodies, to
tell stories and to celebrate life.

Cairo next spoke of the Africans
being shipped as slaves to the L'nited
States, and how their cultural identity
saved their sanity. They danced and
sang to take away their pain.

“(Slave owners) wanted to take the
slave's spirit, so they took away the
drum," Cairo said. “The Africans ptit
the drum into their bodies. 'l‘hey car-

 

ried with them the beat of their cul4
ture."

Cairo said that this way of life should
be integrated into more lives today.

Cairo tised the example of people
who have weak family relations. She
said that to heal. people need to identis
fy what they iiitist do. and then actual—
ly do it.

“\Vrite a Mom.

A California

own UK debate

By Jane Ashley Pace

Across the United States. a consti-
tutional amendment that passed in
California last year is getting a
tremendous amount of attention.
Many students said they fear the
amendment will make its way cast to
other states.

California electorate by a vote of 54—
46 on Nov. i, l‘)9(i. Proposition 20‘)
generally prohibits discrimination or
preferential treatment based on race,
sex, color, ethnicity or national origin
in public employment, education and
contracting.

The federal, state and local govern—
ments run many affirmative action

programs intended to increase oppor-
tunities for various groups including
women, racial and ethnic minority
groups.

For example. public colleges and
universities sponsor pro rams for
scholarships, tutoring and2 outreach
targeted toward minority and female
students.

action no longer exist in Cali-

this half-and-half song quality.
where some tunes had enga ing
melodies and original rhyt ms
while others were somewhat

clunky. Most of this can be
attributed to the different produc-
ers of each son . Bjork herself has
tacitly acknow edged this in her
press releases and in the album’s
title.

Listening to
Homogenit‘. it’s clear
most of these came
from the same place: a
cold, snowy landscape
where steel-blue metal
plates hide the most
regular. insistent
machinery. \Vithin
this is a dramatic pas—

orchestras and liquid
bell tones, not to
mention the moody,

Bjork's voice.

sense of isolation stirs. Electricity
sparks along metal towers with a
visible slowness.

The songs themselves oscillate
between stereo—separated beats

lush. shimmering, echoed refrains.

the tunes contribute to an overall

Mystery
Comedic

5/3021) adds
flare to food

By Angela Anderson

(.MIrI'I/i/Irzng ll 'I'I'tcr

There's murder, there's mys-
tery. there's intrigue and there's
desert.

Doesn‘t sound like they all go
together very well? Then you
obviously haven‘t been to see the
wonderfully entertaining mystery
dinncr theater play. Columbo
\\'ithout a Clue.

,\ new thing to this area, the
mystery dinner theater serves as a

very different, very new way to get
out of the house and enjoy your—
self.

Pairin the performance of a
play ancf a four course meal
together is not a bad idea. \"hilc
the actors try their best to find a
murderer the audience enjoys one
of three choices (chicken, beef. or
pasta) for dinner. (ireg (Ioston.
the writer. director, ant producer
seems to like the idea of serving
food during the performance. “It
rcally makes thc audience feel
involved.

They feel like guests at a dinner
party as the action goes on around
their seats.

Action it is. The audience not
only feels involved but is
involved. whether it be playing a
minor role, competing in dance
contests. or being part of the
actor's jokes.

88 IOI‘ 9

Ifyou are afraid ofbeing picked
on or having to act against your
will - don’t worry. it probably
won‘t happen. “\‘Ve can usually
tell who doesn't feel comfortable
with it, and we try to leave them
alone.“

Don’t feel bad if you aren’t
picked out. though, you'll still
enjoy the evening. The add-Iibbcd
lines and inventive jokes will keep
you laughing.

The actors give the play every-
thing thcy have. They end up
working every weckend and every
holiday. not leaving much time for
themselves. Some of the actors
even have other jobs. Marc
Roland. who plays Mr. Green in
the play. is a Lexington attorney.

The actors also seem to enjoy
what (Ioston calls, “in your face
theater".

The interaction with the audi—

(III time

ence keeps them on their toes. As
Coston explains. “You end up
handling anything the [audience]
says or does." This capability of
handling the audience’s reactions
comes with time. Patience Martin.

Mrs. Peacock, admits. “You'll get
more relaxed and soon you’ll find
it's easier to roll with the punch—
cs."

Ifall this improvisational acting
sounds like fun, and you might be
interested in doing it yourself.
(ioston says they are always look-
ing for understudies.

Last Saturday's performance
contained two understudics: Chris
\Vallings as Prof. Plum and jen—
nifer \‘I'atkins as Mrs. Scarlett
O'Hara.

Whether you are a part of the
cast or an audience member you
can hone your acting skills and get
in on the fun.

Education students get
ew lesson in teaching

By Jonathan Prasse
Contributing H 'rim-

_ It was not a Vegas audience
Brandon Salsman was working. It
w'asa tougher crowd by far.

' j Salsman was honing his profes-
sional skills as a future teacher
before a group of middle and ele—
nientary school children at the
Festival of Kentucky Folklife in
Frankfort.

“Has anybody here been to a
wedding before?“ he asked. A few
heads timidly nodded.

Salsman. a middle school edu—
cation senior, and fellow College
of Education seniors (Iolleen
Sheehy and Stacy Riley stood
behind folding tables at a booth
highlighting the Indian art of
Mehendi. a temporary tattoo
ap lied to the body during festi—
vafs)‘ and ceremonies.

“Do you know you have all dif—
ferent kinds of preparations for a
wedding?" Salsman said.

A few more heads nodded.

“The bride wears a white dress.
right? And there are usually flow-

ers:

A dozen children were on
board for the lesson.

“\Vell, in India." Salsman con-
tinued, “they paint their ankles,
their feet. their arms. hands and
wrists (for weddings)"

Salsman and 80 other (Iollege
of Education students helped otit
at the folklife festival ’l‘hursday
and Friday by interviewing artists
and then describing their work to
btisloads of school children who
visited the festival frotii across the
SI‘JIC.

Holding up a cone-shaped tube.
Salsman asked, "1 las anybody ever
seen anything like this before?"

None of the students connect-
ed. Salsman tried another angle.

“l las anybody ever baked a
cake here?"

A few children nodded.

“1 las anybody ever seen anyone
decorate a cake?”

More nodded.

“(iuess what? She (the artist)
does the exact same thing on your
hands and wrists," he said.

Anupauia Sahasrabudhe. a

Mehendi artist. ently took a young
volunteer‘s haiitfantl began squeez—
ing dye into a pattern on the back of
it. The tattoo will last for two weeks.

“\Ve‘ve got a popular site
here," Sheehy said, as she watched
Sahasrabiidhe create the pattern.

Other College of Education
students also seemed happy with
their assignments.

At the marble courts. elemen—
tary education senior Michelle
Leaverton explained the intricacies
of uTennessee Square." a nine-ball
marble game being played by
Richard, Michael and Larry Bow—
man of'l‘ompkinsville.

“It‘s been really fun this morn—
ing," Leaverton said. “Plus. it's
something we could use with our
classrooms elementary kids
would like it especially. 1 think for
a classroom activity, you can
incorporate it with a lesson. and it
would be really good."

On the other side of the festival
grounds. along the Kentucky
River, elementary education senior
Betsy Schilling sat in a lawn chair
on a mussel brailler. 'l‘he brailler is

Worli

Several work—study
paychecks delayed
From PAGE 1

Part ofthe delay was due to the
need to re-enter work—study stu—
dent information in the coiiiptiter
system. and part was due to the
quick turnover of two work—study
workers this year, including sum-
ner.

’l‘he paperwork piled tip due
to the start of the semester, and
the office got behind, Sumner
said.

“I don't think they've taken
into consideration how much we
depend on those checks." \Vhite

said. “That work-study money is
my transportation money and my
food money. I kind of depend on
it."

Missed deadlines can delay the
payment process. as checks can be
printed only at a certain time.

liven if a deadline is missed,
however. a student cati still get
paid.

“Departments are supposed to
process the paperwork on a timely
basis, but if that doesn‘t happen.
there is a petty cash process to
make sure people get paid," said
Payroll .\lanagcr Scott \Vood.

“it‘s an overnight process."

However. for a few dozen
work—study students. this didn‘t
happen. Despite the problems.
