Wildish is currently working on the first building in the science pro ject, Science V. "We weren't really surpris ed (we won the contract), but we were excited that we would build the next building there." said Don Gordon. Wildish Building Co. manager The planned building. Science IV-B. will eventually house the molecular biology, neuroscience and cell biology programs, according to a University news release The 47.000-square foot, three-story building will replace the parking lot bet ween Science III and Franklin Boulevard In order for con struction to begin. the parking lot will dose on August 17. The University has made a temporary parking lot available across Franklin Boulevard from Science II The closure of the lot should not add to the present lack of parking space at the University, and plans are underway to make up for the lost space, according to Garry Fritre, University architec tural consultant. "We're assuming by the time the science buildings are complete that stuff (new parking space) will be on the line.” Fritze said. The construction of Science V and now Science IV B are part of a multi-million project envisioning four new buildings. Planners expect the completion of the entire project by fall 1989. Science V. under construc tion now. will be devoted to physics. Science IV-B will be devoted to biotechnology. Science IV-A to computer science, and the fourth building will go to geology. Plans call for the remodel ing of the old science buildings once the project is completed. Funds for the science pro ject paid for the new Museum of Natural History, which is close to completion. Universi ty officials hope to re-open the museum sometime this fall. “It's essentially complete," Fritze said. The museum's new loca tion is on East 14th Avenue across from Bean dormitory complex and exhibits are in the process of being moved. Most of the $45 million for the project came from the Department of Energy, which gave the University a $33.4 million grant The state pro vided $12 million from lottery proceeds, and private dona tions amounted to $200,000, according to the news release. L Professor takes time out for playwriting By Jennifer Barton IN Ikr towrak! Gheynev Ryan, the head of the philosophy department, spends most of his time in the classroom, but he also enjoys writing plays for Eugene audiences R\an has spent many hours putting together local shows such as “The Box" and “The Case of The Missing Messiah ‘ Ryan currently is involved in producing one of his plays writ ten a year ago. and with the help of friend Ernesto Ravetto. he anticipates the play will generate a positive response Unlike most of his produc tions. the play "Theatro" is has ed on a migrant worker family that deals with problems of pesticides and education Translated and adapter! to Spanish by Ravetto. the produc tion w ill travel to several rural towns in Oregon to entertain and educate migrant workers about the hazards of working in the fields N'o one came to Ryan to re quest he write a play aimed toward migrant workers. Ryan said the idea came about because he wanted to write a play oriented toward that par ticular audience "We came up with the idea mostly because Krnesto has been involved with migrant workers," Ryan explainer! "Me thought it would be a good idea to write a play addressing social issues." "Theatro” will travel to small towns around Oregon this sum mer. Because a majority of the audience is low-income migrant workers, admission is free and transportation will be provided to and from the theater The play is financially supported by the Oregon Committee of the Humanities. Part of what compels Ryan to write plays comes from his spontaneous imagination Whether it lie comic parody of a classic piece of literature or a play addressing a serious issue, Ryan says putting a general theme on his work would be hart! to do. "I get my idea from everyday life," Ryan said. "I may be driv ing down the highway and find a dor.en things to write about." Mis t reativc inspirations have proved successful for Ryan Plans to take "Theatro" to California next summer are in the making Because the play has generated such a positive response in Oregon. Ryan said he wants to take it to another state to see how it will do. However. Ryan doesn't take all the credit. Writing the play was only a small part of its suc cess. and much of the credit should go to Ravetto for coming up with thcldea and translating it into Spanish, he said. Ravetto, who recruits migrant seasonal farm workers for the High School Equivilency Pro gram at the University, met Ryan several years ago while working in one of his plays. Since then Ravetto has been an avid patron of Ryan's work and considers him to he one of Oregon's most successful playwrights, "Working with Cheynev has been like an internship for me," Ravetto said “It's amazing to watch him work; he’s a wordsmith.” Despite ambitions to keep writing plays. Rvan has little in terest to expand in his audience and is content living and work ing in Eugene, he said Now in his fourth year as head of the philosophy detriment, Ryan lias been able to concentrate on his writing at leisun* and plans to remain in Eugene for quite some time Approval Auto Repair N • CLOSF TO CAMPUS • ASE Certified Technician Tune-ups - Brakes - Fuel Injection I«I7 PtMklta BM.
