□ THINGS TO DO
Forum arranges cultural events
Aside from the educational
advantages, there are many
other reasons for attending a
college or institution of higher
education. For example, there Is
an important cultural aspect to
University life, and various
By Carolyn l.amberson
campus organizations provide
students with different options
in cultural experiences.
One of the busier cultural
organizations on campus is the
Cultural Forum, which operates
out of the ground floor of the
EMU. The Cultural Forum con
sists of seven student coor
dinators in the areas of popular
music, film, heritage music,
small concerts, performing arts,
contemporary issues, and
events crew.
With the exception of the
events crew coordinator, each
coordinator is responsible for
organizing cultural events
within his or her own field and
then bringing the idea before
the forum for approval, said
Debbie Martin, one of three
EMU staff members who gives
advice to the coordinators as
necessary.
The events crew person is
responsible for organizing
volunteers to act as security,
ticket takers and other person
net pertinent lor running an
event smoothly.
The Cultural Forum received
$64.000 in student fee money
from the Incidental Fee Com
mittee last spring. Martin said
this money is used as ‘‘seed
money" to initiate more than
$200,000 worth of student pro
gramming. The difference
comes from money the forum
raises with admission to other
events.
Cheri Wicks, the performing
arts coordinator, said there are a
lot of things involved in bring
ing an event to the University.
"My job is to bring perfor
mance. especially dance, small
theatre and maybe mime to the
University.” she said. This may
entail knowing what types of
performance will be well receiv
ed. what space is available for
such a performance, and how
much money the performers
will require, she added. Lack of
money is her biggest frustra
tion. she said.
"To bring an act in will take
almost my entire budget." she
said. "To get anyone with a
name forget It.” But Wicks
does not see this as an entirely
negative position, she added.
"That's also a challenge.
What's the best I can get for my
money?"
Dance is of special interest to
Wicks, she said. And although
there has not been a lot of dance

brought to the University tn the
past, she would like to see that
change.
"I think there is a potentially
tremendous audience,” she
said 'it's a matter of exposure
People are really open to any
kind of performance art. and
dance is popular right now,”
she said.
The Cultural Forum sponsors
about 50 films a term, said Clay
Hutto, the forum’s film coor
dinator. Like Wicks, he likes to
get his money's worth, and tries
to schedule a balance of films
that will make money with
those that won't, he said.
In addition to selecting,
scheduling and arranging films,
which are played in either
Geology 150, 177 Lawrence or
180 PLC, Hutto also organizes
volunteers to take tickets and
run the films.
Hutto said he will tend to
schedule the more recent and
popular films, the ones more
likely to make money, on the
weekends. On Sundays he has
scheduled foreign classics, and
Wednesdays are the nights for
American classics of the 1930s,
40s, 50s and 60s.
He added he will always take
suggestions from students and
look into getting a certain film.
Some films are impossible to
find, he said. Others, if found,
are too expensive to bring to
campus.
The crowds at the showings
vary according to the films
Hutto tries to predict which
films will be more popular and
schedules the showing hall ac
cordingly. he said. Films like
"Ferris Bueller's Day Off” and
"About last Night . . " are put
in the bigger rooms. Geology
and PLC. while a film like
“Slaughterhouse Five” will
sell-out Lawrence.
"My goal is to make the films
both entertaining and educa
tional.” he said, but added. "It
doesn't always work out that
way.”
The biggest annual event
sponsored by the Cultural
Forum is the Willamette Valley
Folk Festival. Heritage Music
Coordinator Frank Gosar has
already began preliminary work
on the festival, although the of
ficial organization doesn't
begin until winter term, he said.
