Farris said. Susan Anderson, co-director of the Lesbian, Cay and Bisexu al Alliance, said she knows of six people who have been vii - tuns of violent physical hate t rimes tiased on their sexual ori entation this year Kells Morris. University Housing resident director of Cor son Complex, said in the dorms he does not see overt, but rather covert racism and prejudice. He said the Ra< e Task Force's idea for a diversity program is needed and a good approach A game called "cultural pur suit." whi< h imitates htngo hut with cultural identifications rather than numbers, is one activity the task force is < onsid ering. Blake Jones said Another activity involves students writ ing down one ethnic: and one cultural trait with which they identify They are then suppose to discuss this with a partner The diversity hour w ill divide students into small groups of 15 or less and will require a trained facilitator to guide the dis< ussion The Office of Orientation w ill hire 14 students, who will be propped about diversity issues and how to deal with prejudice students in a one-day training session. Farris said. "You i-nn't do much in an hour but we are trying to open minds to the possibility that you can learn something from diversity." he said Hie program will not be a I tv lure hut rather a series of get - ting to know you exercises and small group discussions. The program will be piloted during the 1995 lntroDUCKtion sessions Blake Jones, who began a sim ilar projet t at the University of California at Berkeley, where Kuropean-Americans are a minority, seven years ago when she was thn't tor of residence life there, agrees that one cannot fort e people to attend the diver sity hour.

LOCAL BAND TEETHING In Eugene's recent history, it seems as though supporters of the local music venues have had a choice between pop-punk, or the eternal folk jam Don't get me wrong - I'm not criticizing either of these styles of music But quite recently, there's been a new herb added to the potpourri Freidrich's Teeth is neither punk nor folk They have their own unique style, which includes a strong back beat that compliments the melodic songs the youths have written Freidrich's Teeth definitely has a sound unlike any other band performing the local music scene In comparison, this is a very young group of musicians The band consists of David Harris (20), playing lead guitar and vocals, Jay Gress (19), drums. Jenni Nissila (22). bass, and Joshua James (21). vocals and guitar Freidrich's Teeth can be seen at Good Times on Wednesday night, February 22nd, at 9 30 p m. Good Times has been informed that the first 75 people will receive a copy of the band's self-titled EP Opening the show will be the acoustic 'Oat' (formerly known as The Nephews) For further information, you can call (503) 343-6316 or write to: JJ.
