Coordinator questions low EMU Ballroom capacity
By Mandy Baucum
Emerald Reporter
The Nov 6 Public Enemy
concert In the EMU Ilu 11 room
may have seemed a success to
many students but only added
to the disappointment of one
University Cultural Forum t:o
ordinator
Adam Zacks, national music
coordinator for the Cultural Fo
rum. said he believed he could
give students a better price and
allow morn students to attond
the show, if it weren't for the
low maximum capacity limit.
Presently the ballroom has a
rapacity of 1,000 people, down
400 from the t:uparity allowed
about four years ago.
Zarks said he is tn favor of
raising the ballroom's occupan
cy to its previous 1.-too maxt
mum
"It's obvious there is room
for 300 more people.” Zai ks
said "(A larger ballroom rapac
ity) would drastically lower the
ticket price and allow more
people to go to sold out con
certs like Public Enemy.”
Sacia Stiles, a sophomore
who attended the Public Enemy
concern, said the ballroom
could have easily housed more
people
"There was a lot of people,
but it's not like that was the
maximum capacity or any
thing,” Stiles said
The EMU Ballroom was re
modeled in 1‘JBti But Frank
Geltner. EMU associate dire*
tor. said the remodeling had no
hearing on changing capacity
Instead, Geltner saiil Reggie
Augsburgor, the EMU's newly
appointed fire marshall, made
the capacity change
Geltner said he has been
working wilh the fur 15
years ami that 1.400 was al
ways ihf number for strict
stand up contorts
However. Augsburgrr. depu
ty fire marshall for tno Eugene
Fire Department, said he has
boon with this force for 15 years
and has never heard of the
1,400 figure
Augsburger said as far as tie
knows, the 1.000 code has Ix'on
standard since he began work
mg with the fire department
A room's maximum capacity
is found try dividing its square
footage by seven Because the
EMU Ballroom's square footage
t> 7,128, the maximum occu
pancy is 1,018, Augxburger
said
Foufteen hundred would
have never been in the realm of
possibility," Augsburger said,
'not legally
Linda Dievnndorf, the EMU's
program advisor, said I he ball
room's capacity changed about
the same time Augsburger tx>
came the KMU's fire marshall.
"It's real possible the fire
marshall doesn't have that his
tory," Ulevendorf said
