Music. . . Music. . . Music ■ Music had a good year in 1988 due to the varying styles of the performers. The Ridge Quartet plays old music with an added sparkle. This group won both the Fischoff and Coleman Chamber Music Competitions in 1982. They appear in over fifty engagements per season. Steve Rashid and the Porkpies, as the name suggests, is a completely different style from the Ridge Quartet. This group specializes in the vocal and instrumental music of the late 1940's. Some of the music they play includes George Gershwin and Nat King Cole. Taking another leap we go into the music of the Da- kota Wind Quintet. Wind intruments offer a very differ- ent feeling for the music which this group exhibits beau- tifully. The Dakota Quintet has received many major grants including one from Citibank of South Dakota. Lastly, is the music of the Milwaukee Symphony. The Milwaukee symphony started out in 1959, and has evolved, during the past 29 seasons, into a strong force among American orchestras. They have performed 15 times in the Ripon community and Conductor joAnn Falletta is conducting the orchestra for a second time here in Ripon. The concert is made possible in part by the Ripon College Caestecker Fine Arts Series. The Series, a recent gift by Thomas Caestecker, is dedicated to providing the College and its community with cultural opportunities that are not normally avail- able to small communities.

Forums. . . Sexual Awareness Week was a week to remember! Pre-marital sex, Aids, date rape, methods of birth control, and Safe Sex were the topics of discussion. Dr. E. Short's speech on Sex, Love, or Infatuation, provided everyone with fourteen key clues which can be used to determine if a relationship is romantic infatuation or real love. Counselor Dr. Sherry Lynch spoke on date rape: what it is, why it happens and how to avoid it. Planned Parenthood talked about birth control: which method is good for you and why you should use it. Aids was the next topic in which basic information on what it is. how it is transmitted, and how to protect yourself was given. Lastly. Safe Sex was discussed concerning Aids and how to avoid it and if you are sexually active how to protect yourself against unwanted pregnancies and other sexually transmitted diseases. All in all the week was very enlightening! Wellness Awareness Week provided those who attended with information to live a healthy productive life for the rest of their lives. Dr. Dennis Elsenrath gave a slide presen- tation on ''Making A Personal Commitment To Wellness. The six dimensions of wellness, and the kinds of positive lifestyle changes you can make within each dimension to enhance your own wellness was discussed. Lori Hanson talked about how diet affects your physical wellness and Dr. Sherry Lynch discussed some of the components of healthy friendships and dating relationships. To finish the week there was a Wellness Resource Fair in which you could test your blood sugar level, your iron count, your blood pressure, and much more. Cris Graham gave a demonstration on self-de- fense and Dave Brittain spoke on the Medita- tive Techniques for Spiritual Wellness. The week could be summed up in these words of wisdom, I feel good!!!!, by James Brown. 27
