Although there are many advantages to taking German, enrollment in the courses is still down because students have several misconceptions about the language, said Dr. Christopher L. Dolmetsch, professor ofmodem languages. Dolmetsch said even though the courses are taught five days a week, it is only for three semesters. He said this is an advantage to students because it allows them more time to focus on courses in their major. "We collapsed four semes­ ters into three, but my experi­ ence has proven that if classes are taken more often, the stu- . dents do a lot better," he said. Dolmetsch said he did not want students to get confused by the numbering of the courses, starting at a 200 level instead of 100. Dolmetsch said the courses are designed for the "beginner" ByBIM HIii but because so many students The MU Opera Theatre perfonned last week at Johnson her husband's artt with the rest.

Country ~tars twang: their way to the top

By Greg Collard Assistant News Editor Vince Gill wo country music acts performing in Charleston Nov. 21 have endured a steady rise to the top, but one grew up anything but a country bumpkin. After spending much of her childhood in Prin­ ceton, New ·Jersey, Mary-Chapin Carpenter moved with her family to Japan when she was 10 years old. It was there where she was first exposed to a pick and guitar. When the family returned to the states and moved to Washing­ ton, D1.C., Carpenter found herself surrounded by a variety of music. She continued to experiment with different sounds, but the practice came to a temporary halt when she enrolled at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. But when Carpenter returned to D.C. for summer vacation after her freshman year, she gathered the courage to perform at open-mic sessions in local clubs. At first she only sang tunes made famous by other musicians. However, Carpenter eventu­ ally was able to work in her own music. That bold move paid off. After years of paying her dues in the business, Carpenter made it big in 1990 when she was named Top New Female Vocalist by the Academy of Country Music. , ' A string of hits followed, but it was "Down at the Twist and Shout" that enabled Carpenter to win her first Grammy in 1992 for Best Female Vocal Performance. Country star Vince Gill, on the other hand, grew up playing bluegrass and "pop" music in his native Oklahoma. After high school graduation, Gill considered trying to become a professional golfer. But those plans came to an end when he opted to move to Louisville, Ky., and join Bluegrass Alliance. Following that one-year stint, Gill hooked up with several country and bluegrass bands before signing in 1989 with MCA Records. Soon, Gill had his first top 20 hit with "Never Alone." Next came his first top 10 hit in a duet with Reba McEntire called "Oklahoma Swing." Finally, Gill had his first No. 1 hit in 1990 with "When I Call Your Name," which earned him Song of the Year honors. In 1991, Gill was named Best Male Vocal Per­ former. Gill's latest hit, "Don't Let Our Love Start Slipping Away," is listed at No. 26,"said wrcR disc jockey Dave McClein, adding he expects the song to continue moving up the charts. John Robertson, general manager at the Civic Center, said ticket sales are going well.' However, he said there are still "plenty of good seats available." Tickets are $18.50 and may be purchased at the civic center box office or by calling any Ticketmaster outlet. Mary-Chapin carpenter Def Leppard to rock Chatleston 1
