The dedi cation ceremony included a ribbon cutting and the unveiling of an honorary plaque by President Dave Frohnmayer. McMillan worked at the Uni versity from 1955 to 1991, spend ing 16 years as EMU director. During her tenure, McMillan created the Pacific Northwest Art Annual Fund, a program de signed to purchase a piece of art each year front a Northwest artist to add to the EMU’s permanent collection. The fund was shut clown several years ago due to a lack of money but was restored last year. Along with art, she also brought music to campus, in cluding jazz legend Ella Fitzger ald. University officials, EMU board members, staff and friends and family of McMillan attended the ceremony, which was accompa nied by a new exhibit from the collection. Most of the works dis played, as well as many of the 50 works of art in the EMU collec tion, were acquired under McMil lan’s leadership. Frohnmayer said McMillan’s AMANDA COWAN/E merald Adell McMillan cuts the ribbon during a dedication ceremony, re naming the EMU art gallery after her Thursday evening. service, which combined a love ot students and a passion for art, went above and beyond the call of duty, calling her “brilliant and dedicated.” “We’re really proud to see what she has done [for the University], She really deserves this honor,” said Betty Metzler, who was in at tendance with her husband, Ken Metzler, a retired professor. The Metzlers said they have been friends with McMillan for years, and that McMillan is still active in Eugene, currently serving on the City Planning Commission. "There’s nothing in the world that could have pleased me more than this event," McMillan said. McMillan helped assess and in ventory the collection, with some of the art pieces now on display in the gallery. Delta Smith, visual arts coordinator for the Cultural Forum, said the forum hopes to hire a part-time curator for 1998 99, in order to help the EMU ac quire more art. “I don’t know if you could leave a better legacy." said Dusty Miller, current director of the EMU. Bash: Senior donates station wagon I* Continued from Page 1 about 80 people by the time thunder, lightning and heavy rain forced volunteers to close for the night. Water had filled the cavity in the car’s roof. One window frame had been bent almost in half. The front hood had been knocked off. Senior Laurel Rapport donated the car to help the service raise the money it needs. “It's been dead fora year and I haven’t been able to sell it,” she explained. “Actually, I think this is the most exciting thing that ever happened to it. 1 want to hit it — I had to deal with it for a really long time.” The Student Senate had loaned the Shuttle $3,700 to buy a second van and gave the program until spring to pay it off. The shuttle hoped to raise at least $250 toward that loan with the Car Bash, said Brandon Smith, the shuttle’s public relations director. It spent about $90 to sponsor the event. The car was free, as was towing and salvage. The money bought advertisements and tickets, spray paint and sledgehammers. The program had to go through “1,001 offices” to get approval for the Car Bash. Smith said: schedul ing, OPS, Occupational Health and Services, Facili ties Services. It also had to clear the event with classes in Fenton Hall. Valentine’s Day seemed like a natural time for people to attack a car. Smith said. The program had considered Dead Week and Finals Week, but chose Valentine’s Day because it was more convenient. “You’ve got a thousand events on campus for the lovey-dovey,” Smith said. “Then you see the lone stragglers. People realize Valentine's Day is going to suck once more — let them take it out before the weekend.” Elections: Petitions demanded review sis Continued from Pagel Court last spring prompted the revision of elections rules. The Constitution Court’s main recom mendation advised the elections board to not to act as a judge when faced with complaints about elections practices. Judah Eckenberg fded one peti tion against the elections board; the other was fded by Farrah Bostic and Christopher Kantrowitz. Both petitions wanted Miner and Unger’s election disqualified, while Bostic and Kantrowitz’s petition also wanted an injunc tion against the elections board and a revision of elections rules. The Constitution Court did not believe it had the authority to ad dress these demands, but it did recommend that the rules be re viewed and stripped of wording that might give the elections board the power to judge com plaints. “We took the decisions that the Constitution Court gave us and applied them to the elections rules,” said Taylor Sturges, ASUO publicity coordinator. Ex ecutive coordinator Cheryl Hunter added that the revision process went smoothly: “We all decided on them unanimously.” News Briefs Riley Hall will hold nonalcoholic dance Riley Residence Hall, located at 11th Avenue and Patterson Street, will host a free, nonalco holic dance today front 8 p.nt. to midnight.
