Air F orce
ROTC event

:issisnmt Net's lid/tor

In a display of discipline that char—
acterizes Air Force ROTC, more than
80 cadets stood at attention as the
wind arid rain whipped at their faces
during the annual Air Force ROTC
parade 'l‘hursday.

l’estive parade music, the same used
for Air Force parades all over the
United States, blasted through speak—
ers set up on administration field as the
cadets tiioved through the series of
movements they have been practicing
all year.

Though the parade movements
might look random to the unpracticed
eye, (Zol. Steve Parker said the move-
ments date back to medieval times.

“Knights in armor performed
movements similar to the ones we will
perfortn today," Parker said. “The Air
Force is very steeped in tradition.”

Many of the students participating
in the parade are first-year cadets, and
it was their first chance to see the tra—
dition and discipline that go into mak-
ing a parade go smoothly, Park said.

In preparation for the parade, stu-
dents practiced drills on a weekly basis
the entire semester.

“The parade is a practice in disci—
pline," said ()livia Duer, a junior and
member of the public affairs cadet
office. “The cadets have been practic-
ing for this all year and had to undergo
an inspection before hand which

The parade is meant not only to
prepare the cadets for the parades they
will participate iii after graduation as
members of the Air Force, but also to
give them a chance to recogni/e out-
standing cadets.

u'l‘raditional Air Force parades are
designed to recognize star performers
and to boost moral," Parker said.

l‘iach class was represented iii the
parade. and one cadet was reeogiiiled
from each as the cadet of the month
for March.

“The cadets of the month are stu—
dents who go the extra mile and excel

tests," Duer said.

driven by Lindsay Hofftnan.

Hoffman was named the station’s
general manager Friday afternoon.
She is following in her brother Brian's
footsteps.

“My brother was a 1)] there, and l
jtist catiie down to visit him one time,
and I thought it was a real interesting
thing to see," she said. “That's part of
the reason I came to L'K, because I'd
never seen anything like it."

Hoffman spent the last two years as
news director for the campus radio sta—
tion, at 88.1 on the dial. but the jour—
nalism junior was one of the last peo—

ple clued into her selection as general
manager. \Vhen she got to the Studetit
(Jenter offices of \\'Rl"l.-l’.\l, she ran
into the station's new program direc-
tor, Kristine McNiel.

“I kind of found out through
hearsay," Hoffman said.

MeNiel knew she had been named
program director, so lloffiiiati called
Student Media Adviser Mike Agin for
the fitial word.

“I wasn't really surprised," lloff—
man said. “lt was more like, ‘Now
what do I do.‘ I have to re—think what
I'm going to do this next year. I have
another job, and l have to schedule
around my dtitics at the radio station."

Hoffman hopes to boost campus
visibility of the radio station by

"It radio station

adding more public affairs programs
such as news and call—iii talk shows
without sacrificing the station's tradi-
tioti of playing music rarely heard
elsew here.

The getieral manager oversees the
daily operations of the station .iiid
works with the program director to
keep the airwaves filled with items of
student interest.

(Iandidates for both general manag—
er and program director fill otit an
application that includes specific ques—
tions on what each person plans to do
with the position. The application also
questions candidates. understanding of
the position.

After stibiiiittiiig aii application,
each candidate is called before the

“’Rl’lxl‘Al Advisory Board where
they are interviewed for about an hour.

McNiel was tortured by current
(ieneral .\lanager Briati King follow-
ing her board ititerview.

“l was the last person to be inter—
viewed, and l was just liaiigitig out
back .it the station," said McNiel. a
biology freshman. “There was a bunch
of food left. Briati pulled me over and
said and wanted to talk to me. He
totally leaded it like you didn‘t quite
make it and then said they decided to
pick tiic anyway.“

McNiel is responsible for
scheduling shows atid trying to keep
people happy. But King‘s joke made
her anything btit happy tiiitil it was
over.

Study: Non-tenure t

Many professors are turning to the
alternatives like part—time,

By Lisa M. Rooolman
Cavalier Daily (U. Virginia)

(llIARLO'VI‘FSVILLF., Va. —
As colleges and universities nation-
wide face growin concerns about a
rising number of students coupled
with a decreasing supply of tenured
faculty, some Virginia faculty mem-
bers are questioning the importance
of tenure.

Last week, Education School Prof.

Jay L. (Ihronister and \Villiam and
Mary Education l’rof. Roger (i. Bald-
win completed a two-year project, col-
lecting data and examining the
increasing nationwide trend of noti-
tenure-track faculty.

According to the study, a non-
tenure track is becoming more popular
as faculty express a desire to teach as
opposed to spending a large portion of
their time doin research.

“\\'ith all olgthe ﬂack tenure is get-

ask otten

ting, a lot of faculty members are ques-
tioning, why tenure?" (Ihronister said.
“This is a change iii higher education."

(Ihronister said tenure is an
appointment with an unlimited term,
while a non-tenured teaching posi—
tion usually is held by a contract
delineating the length of the teach-
er's term -—~ “an end that has to be
renewed."

Many schools, including UK, now
face tighter budgets and larger num—
bers of students, forcing them to
look into the o tion of non—tenured
and part-time actilty —— adjunct fac—
tilty who are more affordable and
accessible.

best way

“Because of shriiikitig bud rets,
ltenurel puts a heavier teachiiigiitir—
den on faculty, and limits the potential
development of faculty members,"
Faculty Senate (Ihairman _lahan
Rama7ani said.

But Ramazani said the Virginia's
reputation depends largely on faculty
research. Altiiost all faculty members
hired by the L'niversity are on tenure-
tracks, he said.

"The real success ofour University
has been predicated on dual forms of
research and teaching. It is a big mis-
take to go one way or the other,” he
said.

Health and Human Services Secretary Donna

about it because it‘s about public health."

into a money grab that would drive the industry
into bankruptcy. .

lndustry leaders stressed Sunday that they would
unleash their huge lobbying power to stop the legis-

that limit advertising of tobacco products atid
require companies to pay billions in penalties ifteen

Band hits marlin a Subaru?

By Jay D. Vosltuiil

(."mirriltuilrig H ’rr'rrr

The “’rocldage became a juice
bar and then, like a beacon through
the bar room smoke, a storage
facility became the 37 (Ienter.

This is the evolution of the
rock venue in Lexington. But
don't tell Portland‘s, Kissing
Book, who returned to Lexington
'I‘hursday night to play the 37
Center. As far as the band knows,
area shows have always taken
place in empty storage spaces.
Their first time through last fall
found them setting up in a base-
ment.

Kissing Book is refreshingly
simple. Thursday night‘s incarna-
tion included just two pieces —
ruitar and drums. if Kissing Book
had a bass player, it would just
mean less space for the two band

members in their Subaru.

Their music, like their touring
wagon, is incredibly compact. A l
uniform in structure, Kissing
Book's short songs, stacked nicely
and effortlessly, helped assemble a
fun, early—'60s inspired set oftra—
ditional pop.

The crowd was sparse. Before
the start of the show
guitarist/vocalist Andrew K. invit—
ed the entire audience to join him
on the scrap of carpet (37 (lenter‘s
equivalent ofa stage) that differen—
tiates the band from the audience.

Much to his surprise, the crowd
obliged. Andrew and drummer
Mike K. seemed to feed off the
newfound intimacy and their
crisply-crafted pop thrived.

The songs are all upbeat and uti—
lize the standard “La. La, La" hack—
ing vocal.

Mike's

drumming recalled

FUCKER UP The Portland band Kissing Book mole its minimal/rt. run—piece
pop art to the 3 7 Center Thursday night.

Motown's wall of sound record-3
ings, where a single tambourine:
would often bury the entire kit.j
His hit-the-cymbal-harder-than—3
the-snare approach barely nudged-
Andrew's swift songs along. :

“I like to be on the floor (with
the audience)," Andrew said after-j
ward. “I like to dance."

His dancing nearly stole the
show. \\'ith feet to ether and a
pre-vpubescent hem ine exposin T
his ankles. Andrew twisteg
straight out of the school of hol—
low body hung high.

Kissing Book has existed in one
form or another since the fall of
1996. Andrew’s brief stint at Mid-
dle Tennessee State University, a
reputed music industry school just
outside of Nashville, Tenn”
soured him on college and
encouraged him to leave.

“i realized that everyone was
there to o to school and not
there to find a hand then uit
school," he said. “i quit schoo to
try and find a band."

it was back on the West Coast
that Andrew found Mike. The two
have been on tour since March.

Kissing Book considers itself a
legitimate result of pop’s lon
legacy, tracing its influences back
to early Beach Boys, Sam and
Dave and the Kinks. Even early
punk contributed to Kissin
Book‘s existence, if not in sountf
then in spirit. Along with like-
minded bands Of Montreal and
the Minders. it couples a positive
punk mentality with a more gentle
pop music.

Kissing Book appears on a vari—
ous artists compilation by Portland
label Magic Marker. it also shares
an independently-released seven
inch, split with friends Glossary.

The band is devoted to touring
and Andrew admits he doesn't do
much else. Back home in Portland
he says they play the occasional
all—ages show but complains,
“There’s so many bands there."

\thn ﬁnally asked what hap-
pened to the bass player, Andrew
snorted, “()h, he quit," then calm-
ly stated, “I hope we can ﬁnd
someone to ﬁt in."

He meant, of course, both
musically and physically, as space
is at a premium inside the Subaru.

Bad movies never really die. they just

This was the case with Spet'les ll. btit
sadly enough. the secotid installment is
actually better than the original.

The story opens like something out of
Robert lleinlein's Stronger in n Sirnnge
Land. l’atrick Ross flustin lat/ard) is shown
landing and walking on the
surface of Mars. The historic
inotnent is broadcast via live
feedback to liarth where it is
deemed one of the greatest
moments in mankind.

undergoing a transformation into the satne
sort of creature that had to be hunted down
iii the first movie. This is where the movie
falls back into the tired “let's go hunt down

mode.

.\lichael .\ladsen is brought back as
bounty hunter l’ress Lennox.
and .\larg llclgenbergcr once
again plays sympathetic scientist
Dr. Laura Baker.

It is up to that duo to hunt
down and neutrali/e l’atrick

in the first. which isn't much.

Natasha llenstridge is even
back. despite the fact that she w as
killed in the first movie. She is

"brought back“ by a cloning one of her origi-
nal cells and is given the name live. She is
also enlisted to help track down Ross because
she has sort oftclepathic link to him.

ofbrtitally mutilated women’s bodies. This

works as the moyie's only redeeming aspect
because Ross kills them by having se\ with
them.

His alien sperm instantly fertili/es the
women who git e birth in gory fashion to
little half—alien/'half-»liuman offspring.
The whole process takes about Ill sec»

clawing their way out of their mothet"s
stomachs.

During the hunt for Ross. howe\cr. lite

that the two can produce an unstoppable
full-fledged alien that would destroy hutnati

'l‘he whole thing comes to .1 head in

his other offspring to tnature. with the end
ing being iust as bad if not worse than the
first movie.

’l‘he chilling special effects .ire the only
thing that make this mo\ie the least bit

thus keep the film moying along at a steady
