RECORDS, RECORDS, and more records, are what you see in Dr. Biel's home and classroom. Dr. Biel has a vast collection of the recording industry. Unique Professor i Cluttered boxes are stacked haphazardly around the room. Propped against a desk covered with papers, pen- cils and pamphlets is a huge, red, metal sign advertising Coca-Cola. The walls are plastered with a wide variety of posters from Garfield and Disco Sucks to shots of the London skyline. Looking beyond the clutter, one notices a theme to the disarray. Antique radios, records, televisions and recorders are displayed around the room. Most of the posters have something to do with the broadcast in- dustry. Not exactly a typical professorls office, but then Dr. Michael J. Biel is not a typical university professor. Dr. Biel teaches Audio-produetion, Broadcasting History, Problems in Contemporary Broadcasting, and American Popular Culture. Besides that, he is an avid col- lector of everything and anything connected with the recording industry.An acknowledged expert in this field, Biel is known nation-wide for his extensive collection, his writings on the subject, and his expertise which has helped him expose several frauds concerning recording history. Recently, Biel produced a record of early recordings by Thomas Edison entitled Edison Speaks. He said of the effort: I did the whole album by myself, even down to making the negatives for the pictures. The total album is about 59 minutes and only about 10 minutes of that has been available to the public before. Biel said he hoped that MSU will take students' feelings into consideration more. liPresident Reinhard made a lot of advances, getting rid of waste and out-moded ideas, he said. I would only hope we don't backslide, and that students could make a difference. nI'm dismayed that students aren't listened to more around here.
