NAKED NOT NASTY Drawing is the foundation of all visual arts, and figure drawing is the foundation of drawing, Noblett said. The models for Figure Drawing I and II were paid to take their clothes off, but not to strip. Expressing shapes and proportion is the nature of figure drawing. You ' re not drawing a steel I-beam; it ' s alive, and it moves, said Duane Noblett, associate professor of art. Figure drawing demonstrates how capable someone is as an artist. It shows depth, shape, proportion and movement. This difficulty was recognized by the art students. ' The human figure is the hardest to master. It ' s that hard to duplicate, said John Humble, junior in art. If you can draw the human figure, you can draw anything. David Norton, 42, was one of two nude models in the figure drawing classes. Norton was an artist in Manhattan who began modeling more than five years ago as a substitute. He has been a model at K-State for two years. Students need to see a nude model. It ' s hard to learn the body when you don ' t have one there to see. It (the human body) is a masterpiece of art, Norton said. You can ' t learn it from drawing a tree or a landscape. Even clothed models are too close to illustration. I ' m embarrassed for some people. The first day of class some are shocked, but I ' m used to it. I was to it (nude models) as an art student myself, Norton said. According to Noblett, most art students had become accustomed to seeing nude figures in art history classes. I knew it was going to happen (drawing nude models). It kind of intimidated me for a few weeks, Humble said. But you ' re constantly doing something in the class. You don ' t have time to really think about it. The instant the model undressed, the students had to concentrate on drawing the figure accurately and correctly. The models were paid on an hourly wage and worked about 14 hours a week. Most respondents are male models. Noblett said he ' s never had a problem finding models; most were artists themselves. by Susanne Schmeling Laura Ostmeyer, senior in fine arts, works on an ink wash drawing of the model while he is in a 20-minute pose while in Figure Drawing I class.

CONDOMS CUT RISK Health educator Cindy Burke crusades against the dangers of risky sex in the college environment Condom Queen, Princess, Queen from Lafene and the Rubber Maid were the names students gave Cindy Burke, supervisor of the Department of Health Education and Promotion. Burke was proud of the names because she earned them. In 1986, AIDS awareness was rapidly growing, and that fall Burke began giving talks to student groups on AIDS and methods of birth control. I got the idea of handing out condoms at an College of Health Burke said. One of the health educators from a lar- ger college attracted a lot of attention by handing out condoms. The first time Burke her class condoms, no one took one, the second time, same results. I tried to figure out how I could make the students understand it was OK, that I wanted them to take one, Burke said. Burke finally required the class to take a condom. Even then, not everyone had protection in mind. There are so many who have never seen one (condom), let alone used one, Burke said. Besides introducing them, I want students to become more comfortable with condoms because they need to be used every time. At the college level, Burke gave presentations to 96 percent of all departments on campus and trained 25 students to become Peer AIDS Educators, enabling presentations to be student-to-student. Following a mandate from the State of Kansas that all schools had to have AIDS and human sexuality education in the curriculum between kindergarten and 12th grade, Burke added secondary students to her lecture list. According to Burke, individuals in the 14-24 age group were the most susceptible to AIDS. They were also the least concerned and believed they were the least at risk. To most people, safe sex means a monogamous relationship, one partner, but what they really mean is one partner at a time – one for six months then finding someone new. This is still a great risk, Burke said. Monica Connet, senior in elementary education and Peer AIDS Educator, said students would benefit from condom machines. A lot of people are too embarrassed to purchase condoms. If they were available on campus, they would use them, Connet said. When individuals buy a condom, they are not buying sex; they are buying protection, Burke said. Reality tells us that when we are in the heat of passion, we are not going to put our clothes on and run down to the convenience store to buy some protection, Burke said. No way. by Tiffany Heit ♦ Jason Dierks, freshman in animal science and industry, and Angie Hicks, freshman in hotel and restaurant management, watch a video on AIDS during biology class.
