A 1111gget ofne111a Vol. II, No. 13 Columbia College, Columbia, CA Feb. 23, 1983 Columbia Loses Ellen Stewart
by Doug Scbwyn
Drama students at Columbia College are seriously concerned over the school district's decision to transfer drama teach er Ellen Stewart from Columbia to Modesto. Ellen has been teaching here for the past twelve years, carrying the bulk of training actors for college drama produc tions while instructor Dave Purdy has done most of the producing and directing. Ellen also teaches inprovisational theater and has produced, cast and directed the winter travelling productions in the past. If she is transferred, beginning next September, Dave Purdy will be solely responsible for all the training, casting and production at Columbia College. Ellen feels depressed about transfer ring. She has given twelve years of her life to the drama community here, and has developed a strong rapport with serious students in this area. Many of the actors she has trained have gone on the perform ances with the Sierra Repertory Theater and other professional theaters. Ellen's salary will not be increased. The cost of commuting the three hour, 120 mile round trip to Modest and of child care for her four- year-old daughter will substantialy reduce her standard of living. Many people believe that the Columbia drama department will suffer radically if Ellen leaves. The school district feel that, faced with budget cuts, there is no choice in the matter. Drama student Sinder McLeod feels that, "economics is a weak reason to deprive Tuolumne County of the cultural advantages of a strong drama depart ment."

Page 10 The Claim Jumper· Feb. 23, 1983 We need pats by Laura Trover Everyone has a need to be noticed. ''See what I did." "Look,you're going to miss it if you don't look ... '' Too late. We are always so caught up in our own thoughts, we tune out others more than we realize. People that get no response, or worse, negative feedback, seem to end up with little confidence in themselves and or others. We all need an ego boost and positive words of encouragement to make life go a little smoother. For those who know what it is like to have little kids hanging around, you know that we are all quick to respond to their negative behavior (being rotten). Kids must thing it's great the way those grown-ups look when they're freaking. Since doing something as heathen-like as possible makes us respond, kids will tend to go that route before a more positive one. They just want the attention! They need and deserve the attention, but why not give it to them when they are trying to learn something or playing nice ly. We should try to ignore the bad be havior and reward the good. It's a bard thing to do and it takes a strong person. If you work at it and give a child positive encouragement, it will make two strong people. A lot less tension will be your reward. , It's not just kids that need that pat on the back, we all need to know our work isn't going by unnoticed. Having someone's approval gives us confidence in our proj ects and most important, in ourselves. And we all know a little constructive critism never hurt anyone. ..
