BROWN BAG LUNCHEONS GAIN POPULARITY Sue Ellen Aniskiewicz listens as lane Adcock ex- plains her point during the BBL on Career De- velopment. Shirley Wilson, IUK Director of Personnel, ex- plains that stress can be hamessed. The brown bag luncheons were held in the student commons at noon on Thursdays. These luncheons were devised to give students a chance to discuss their problems and questions on a one to one basis with a person who was well- versed in a particular field. Topics at these luncheons ranged from Alcohol Abuse to Affirmative Action. The speakers who conducted the luncheons were either from IUK or members of the community. The speakers included: lane Adcock, IUK director of Career Placement, lohn Craig, IUK Director of Counseling, Steve Taylor, Vice-president of Mort- gage Loans, First National Bankg Herb Miller, Affirmative Action Officer, Shirley Wilson, IUK Director of Personelg and Bob jackson, IUK speech instructor. lanie Adcock spoke on such topics as 'l'm in School, Now What?'f and Returning Adult Women, Can l Compete? lohn Craig spoke about Alcohol Abuse and the students' re- sponsibility to control it. Steve Taylor spoke about how to develop an effec- tive budget on a students' sometimes limited income. Herb Miller spoke about persons rights under the affirma- tive action laws. Shirley Wilson con- ducted a luncheon on stress, with Bob jackson completing the series with a workshop on listening. Debbie Clason, IUK Student Activit- ies Coordinator said, HI feel that each luncheon was a success in itself, but I do wish we had had better attendance. loe Dishon, co-president of lUK's Student Union Board, which sponsors the brown bag luncheon se- ries noted that the lack of attendance may be due to the newness of the se- ries when he said, 'il feel that students just weren't aware enough of what was going on at these luncheons to really want to get involved, but maybe after the word gets out they will be more popular.

UNCOMMO C0 CERT STARTING A NEW TRADITION The first Uncommon Concert was held on September 25, featuring musical missionary Cathy Fink. Cathy entertained the noon time audience in the IUK commons with her songs, while they ate and tried to catch up on their assignments. The second Uncommon Concert was held on October 22, with Ed Sweeney, singer of abscure songs. Ed kept the audience captivated with songs like Railroad Bill and the Cat, and The Streets of London. Sweeney's songs were unique in that they cap- tured the humorous side of things. The spring semester at lUK marked the beginning of a new approach to the uncommon concerts. Several new Ed Sweeney performs his obscure song Railroad Bill and the Cat, during an Uncommon Concert. acts were hired by the student leaders at the NACA conference in Peoria, Illi- nois. The acts hired included such talents as comedians, jugglers, and a ventriloquist. Students were entertained by each of these performers at the various Un- common Concerts throughout the sec- ond semester. Attendance to the Uncommon con- certs was so good that the Student Union Board hopes to be able to con- tinue the tradition of them in the years ahead. The Uncommon Concerts were definitely one of the greatest things to happen at IUK this year. 'wvemwww ..-qu-.vnu 4.9, sk mx exe c ,ess ' . Wx 1 -sa-ZEN . XS .N .t - Y:-g:,,w+ . .. ..
