Rising — ‘Talent Recognition given to artists and students The Blind Web- ster It Is not neces- Sary to understand; it is enough to adore. The God may be of clay: adore Him; He be- comes GOD. We ignore what created us; we adore what we cre- ate. Let us create nothing but GOD! That which causes us to create is our true father and mother; we cre- ate in our own im- age, which is theirs. Let us create therefore without fear; for we can cre- ate nothing that is not GOD. —A.C. On the walls and in the air of Riden- baugh Hall and Prit- chard Art Gallery, artists leave their mark. Every art student is given a square of milk carton paper in Ridenbaugh Hall and is required to fill the space with his or her own cre- ation. Meanwhile, up- Stairs, music stu- dents use the prac- tice rooms to per- fect their own, different art form. ARCHITECTURE ma- jor Lori Sodorff con centrates to get just the right effect for her Square in Riden- baugh Hall. (Duffy) Art on Campus Some music stu- dents must also be art students as the walls of many of the practice rooms have been painted with different de- signs, such as disin- tegrating gold trom- bones painted on a high school cafete ria colored sickly green wall. On a more seri- ous note (no pun in- tended), art can be found in the main corridor on the first floor of the Student Union Building. Mostly paintings, there are also ex- hibits of sculpture or photography dis- played from time to time. If staring at a pic- ture doesn't get your heart started, the University offers various kinds of performing arts, in- cluding dance, the- atre, and music of all kinds through- out the year and into the summer. Regardless of your taste in art, you can always find something to write home about wher- ever you end up looking for enter- tainment in Mos- cow or on campus. 17

Biss and “ell Love-struck individuals get support from relationships Going to classes, calling your qirl- friend or boyfriend, doing homework together, and say- ing goodnight. This may seem outra- geous to some but it is a common practice among col- lege men and wom- en, Shuffling college and a girlfriend or boyfriend was a hard job. The stress increased along with the work. Not only did individuals have to find time to complete home- work, but they had to spend time strengthening the relationship; if ei- ther area was for- gotten, it failed. What did a spe- cial companion of- fer? According to Students, a com- panion qave sup- port in times of need, listened, and helped with any ex- tra work. For others, a companion was too difficult. They felt that he or she de- manded too much time and emotional energy. Also, they felt like they should still be able to play and not feel tied down to any one person. “It's hard,” David Thomas said. “‘l find it hard to man- age my time be- tween classes and her, but it’s nice to have someone to turn to when | need IM “Sometimes it’s JUGGLING relation- ships and academics was a task some stu- dents avoided, but others delighted in their companion, es- pecially when the oth- er was affectionate. (Moyer) difficult to have a girlfriend when | have a project due, but she usually un- derstands,” said Steve Green. A lot of people who didn't have a girlfriend or boy- friend had difficulty understanding why anyone would want such a burden. “I think that | would like to have a lot of friends rather than a girlfriend,” a stu- dent commented. “My friends don't demand my time nor do | have to worry about getting homework done. | just want to get school finished.” Even though it was sometimes dif- ficult, there were couples all over campus who loved their situation, As Laurie Thompson said, “I love it, he helps me and sup- ports me when | need it. As for me, I enjoy the compan- ionship and emo- tional support | re- ceive from my boy- friend.” “A relationship is only as difficult as you let It be,” said a 20 year old female. “Having a commii- ment (being pinned) helps us to give each other room to spend time apart without qet- ting overwhelmed with jealousy, there is no monitoring, but we do call each other a lot.” STUDENTS had more freedom living on their own and dating who they wanted when parents weren't around.
