Assembly
continued from page 1
Stahl said the University communi
ty, even without a formal vote, must
continue to form a voice of opposi
tion against war in Iraq.
“As I was gathering signatures on
the Concerned Faculty (for Peace
and Justice) petition for an assem
bly meeting, I discovered that al
most everyone on the voting faculty
at the University is opposed to
America’s impending invasion of
Iraq,” Stahl said. “Some members,
however, declined to sign the peti
tion because they thought it inap
propriate for the University to take
positions on political issues. I re
spectfully disagree with those fine
colleagues. Our University has tak
en and should continue to take posi
tions on issues that are central to its
mission or its survival. ... The Uni
versity must stand opposed to a war
of aggression that is threatening to
destroy us.”
Of the many assembly members
opting to take a position in favor of
the amended resolution and a Uni
versity stance against the war, one
lone voice—linguistics and cognitive
science Professor Emeritus Tom
Givon — spoke against the assembly
taking any stance on the war.
While Giv6n eventually voted to
support the symbolic resolution, he
warned against ever using the Uni
versity as an institution to make po

litical statements.
“I’m not going to speak against
the resolution because I support
it,” Givon said. “I believe as I be
lieved in the ‘60s, where I spent six
years parading against the war in
Vietnam, that our place is not here
when we take political positions:
Our place is in the street; our
place is in the community.
“I think this is damaging. It’s
damaging to all the constituen
cies we serve. It’s damaging to our
students because we let them
see that we are more concerned
with what to think than how to
think. It’s damaging to the people
that sign our paychecks, because
they told us not to engage in poli
tics here.”
Members of Concerned Faculty
for Peace and Justice said they
will continue in their efforts to op
pose the war through education,
formal papers and teach-ins.

complete freedom in deciding
which medium the individual proj
ects will be delivered in, as long as
the creations pertain to the theme
the professor chooses for the term.
“It’s absolutely wide open,” Johnson
said, adding that students present their
work in writing, video and countless
other forms, individually or in groups.
This term’s theme is “home,” which
Johnson said pertains to “issues of (the
students’) own childhoods but also the
range of issues about home between
transients to ownership.”
Senior multimedia design major
Toby Ensign said he is working on a
solo project centering around how a
person prepares at home for his or her
“performance” in the outside world.
“I’m looking at dental care and pi
ano practicing,” Ensign said. “They’re
kind of two very weird things to com
bine, but those are things that really
hithome forme.”
Ensign is creating a music video
showing clips of himself engaged in
this home preparation set to a techno
dance version of a classic Franz Liszt
composition. Ensign, who is part Hun
garian, said he identifies with Liszt be
cause the composer also hailed from
Hungary.
Senior multimedia design major Di
ana Yom said she also went back to her
roots, focusing the project on child
hood memories.
“When I first started thinking about
home, the first thing that came to my
mind is how impermanent it is for me,”
she said.
Yom added that her family moved
from South Korea to the United States
in 1990, rendering her first memories,
‘Very vague, dreamlike.”
“(Home) is not a physical place
where I live or do my daily tasks,”
she said. “It was somewhere that I
had to really dig into — very emo
tional, very personal.”
Yom said after brainstorming, she
decided to present her project in
digital form.
“Ultimately, it will be published on
the Web with an interface that lets the
user navigate through my memories,
images and stories,” she said.
Beyond their separate projects, the
participants are compiling a book in
corporating parts of their creations —
three images and text from each stu
dent — which they plan to submit to
eclectic New York art book publisher,
Printed Matter Inc. The company cata
log will include the collection.
The class also built a kitchen for to
day and Wednesday’s FOOD for Lane
County benefit at Lawrence Hall,
where they will serve soup, which peo
ple can purchase in reusable bowls cre
ated by art Assistant Professor Justin
Novak’s ceramics students. Visual
Continuity students also worked on
publicity for the event and composed a
soundtrack to give the venue a street
fair atmosphere. Johnson hopes the
projects help the students become
“more informed practitioners.”
“Through this one theme, they’re
able to cultivate enough research that
means something to them in their lives
and relates to the world,” he said.
“Conceptual breadth, I think, would be
the bottom line.”
Ensign said the course has given
him a new appreciation for home.
“I think there’s something really
honest about everyone’s home story,”
he said. “Don’t take it for granted.”
