Children experience campus life Editors note: Three South Eugene High School students experienced the Univer sity student newspaper by covering Cam pus Kids' Day. These are their reports: While a number of people enjoyed a holiday, volunteers held several events for children on the University campus Monday from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. "Kids' Day was for children in the University community — children of students, faculty and staff," and also local youth groups, said organizer Rachel Bellamy. "It was a common experience among some of the women that it was difficult for family members to understand why they're going to school, and as well, what school is," said Bellamy, a journalism ma jor who worked with Women in Transi tion last year. Bellamy proposed the program to the Student University Relations Council last spring. Mark Thompson and Eileen Ho were co-organizers in the program. By Matthew Rendaii Memorabilia The University Archives displayed memorabilia in the EMU, which included front pages of the Register-Guard and the Oregon Daily Emerald in 1939, freshman initiation posters and 70-year old pictures of the University campus. Pictured in the exhibit were photos of a 1918 anatomy class and the intersection of 13th Avenue and Kincaid Street in 1928. The 60-year-old initiation posters spoke of ".. .toiling to please your unrelenting masters, the class of '21...” Although some kids found the displays "kind of crowded,” all seemed to echo this one response: "It was really fun." By Lisa Rubenstein The play's the thing Jerry Reinhardt, University Theatre Technical Director, gave two children's tours of Robinson Theatre Monday afternoon. Reinhardt explained the mechanics of a stage production, from curtain opera tion to costuming. He said designing a play is done “the same way an architect does drawings for a building." "You don't have to be a student to ex perience the University," said Dianne Mason, who brought her two children and a friend. She said the event was very instructional. Much of the tour centered on the play "St. Joan,” by George Bernard Shaw, which will be performed at Robinson Theatre the next two weekends. By Sean Aday Photo by Travis (ohnson Campus Kid's Day, a day for children of University students, faculty and staff sponsored by SURC, let these children have a little fun with paint Monday. First meeting established for support group A support group for students who have family or friends with cancer, or who have lost a friend or family member to cancer, will hold its first meeting tonight at 7:30 p.m. in Century room D of the EMU. leanne Wojack, a co-facilitator of Sacred Heart's cancer sup port group and a counselor at the Bright Wings counseling center, will be the guest speaker. The idea for the group was originated by Leslie Hickcox, a graduate teaching fellow in the School and Community Health department, after she lectured about the affects of losing a family member to cancer. Tonight's meeting, sponsored by the American Cancer Socie ty, will culminate by breaking into small discussion groups, and the small group format will be continued in later meetings, Hickcox says. She plans to hold two to three small meetings a month discuss ing the process of supporting someone dealing with cancer. Topics will include the grief pro cess and stress related grief. Hickcox lost her father to cancer in December and says the experience of dealing with a family member with terminal il lness has affected her career and her life. “There's a strange, long-term tension,” she says.
