Biasi takes over office
of College artist

Have you ever wondered,
while flipping through the
pages of the annual college
catalog, who, with a great
amount of hard work and
talent, created the artistic
designs that appear on the
cover and throughout the
book? This effort, formerly
handled by CCC artist, Mike
Coughlin, is now provided by
graphic . designer ' and
newcomer, Dennis Biasi.
Designing the catalog,
however, is not all that keeps
Biasi actively involved in his
work. He spends a con
siderable amount of time
working . on special events
projects, such as his current
endeavor, the varsity basketball
poster.
Prior to his October arrival,
Biasi was employed at the
University of Nevada, in Reno,
and before that as an adver
tising artist for a stockbroker in
Portland.
Although
*he
graduated from design school
10 years ago, Biasi still feels
well-acquainted with college
life, as CCC is the third college
he has designed for in the cour
se of his 15-year career.
“I always liked to design cars
and domed buildings,” said
wide-eyed Biasi, explaining his
original intention of becoming
an industrial designer, which
he believes, sparked his interest
in the graphic arts field.
“Once upon a tjme, people
used to suggest that my work
resembled that of Peter Max, a
well-known New York Pop ar
tist,” said Biasi with a smile, but
since then, like every creative
artist, he has developed his
own special style and polished
techniques.
When asked how he obtains
ideas for his productions, Biasi
replied, “If people are visually
aware, then they see many
things that influence them ar
tistically.”
Biasi feels comfortable in his
new surroundings in Clairmont
Hall, and especially enjoys
associating with Kevin McMur-
do, public relations officer, also
new to the College,
“He creates a team concept
and he’s very influential,” said
Biasi.

At last, Encare.®
Neat, compact, no bigger than your
fingertip, Encare is fast becoming
the most ta I ked about contraceptive
we have today.
Free from hormonal side effects,
Encare is available without a
prestription. And it might well be
the easiest method of birth control
you will ever use.
Simply simple.
*
You simply insert Encare with the
tip of your finger. There's no iffy
measuring, no tubes, noapplicators.
And no messy paraphernalia to
clean up afterward. Each tiny insert
contains an exact, premeasured
amount of the clinically proven
spermicide, nonoxynol 9.
Simply effective.
Very simply, Encare works by neutral
izing sperm. When used properly,
Encare melts and gently effervesces,
spreading within
your vagina for
protection against
pregnancy.
Even under very
rigorous testing
conditions, Encare's
spermicide was found to be highly
effective.
Simply safe.
And if you ask your gynecologist
about Encare, you'll be reassured to
hear that Encare cannot harm your
•body the way the pill or IUD might.
Which means, you simply won't
be worried about those
complications.
For maximum protection, it is
essential that you read and follow
directions carefully and, if
indicated, consult your physician.
No birth control method is
guaranteed to prevent pregnancy.
Birth control, simplified.
