one As part of the Madisonians annual home show, senior Jennifer DePaola performs River Deep, Mountain High, for a sold out crowd April 24, 1 999. The concert celebrated the show choir ' s 25th anniversary; yet the next day, the 1 6- member ensemble learned that their director was moving and that the College of Arts and Letters was cutting their funding. Despite the obstacles, under the leadership of senior Mandy Lamb and several returning members, the group gained organization status and began their own fund-raising efforts. Having performed at venues around the state throughout the year, the Madisonians closed their year, as always, with the home show on April 22, 2000, once again for a full auditorium. ■ Photo by Steve Boling 8 Ope
