' 'We hold the University responsible for not creating a campus environment that is truly one of civility for lesbian, gay and bisexual students." This comment was addressed to Chancellor Joseph Duffey and seven other University of Massachusetts off icials by members of the Lesbian, Gay and Bisex- ual Alliance when they presented top administrators with a list of demands at the end of last semester. The demands called for the establishment of a professionally staffed office of gay, lesbian, and bisexual affairs on campus and arose partly in response to a wave of homophobic acts that were occurring at the time. "At the start of the year, we set up priorities and the oppression of lesbians and gays was at the top, " said Jay Savereid, English professor and commission chairman.

, ¦ ¦ \ ^^^ - : _^s_^j Editorials Brickbat hy John Cottiris Jan plan needs change
The Educational Policy Committee (EPC) is currently ask- ing academic departments at Colby to look into course offer- ings for Jan plans in the future. This is a wise decision, because maybe the time has come for more changes within the Jan plan system. Colby should be proud that it was one of the first schools to experiment by offering a month between semesters for creative purposes. Jan plan was- intended to give students a chance to pursue other credited academic (or non-academic) interests without feeling the pressures and rigors of a usual semester. January has to some extent turned into a way for students to cram two or three more credits in order to graduate and/or fill a requirement for a major. This has taken away much of the creativity that was supposed to be encouraged back when Jan plan began. In addition, many courses offered during the past few Jan plans have been regular semester courses "cramm- ed" into a month, according to students. The point here is not to criticize all credit Jan plans, but to ensure that enough different non-credit and strictly January- type courses are offered. The EPC should encourage student inpufabout Jan plans to find out the most desired route to follow. Jan plan should always be a different and non-routine time of year. Arb os making out like bandit

Wham! All control is abandoned for the moment and the music takes over and the fun begins. It lasts for 90 minutes and it 's called Stop Making Sense. Unaccompanied except for the box blasting the beat, Byrne wails through "Psycho Killer " jerking his body through contortions that are at once abstract and natural. The music is controlling him , propell- ing him, through the song when all of a sudden the order, the beat, breaks down into a flurry of stac- cato beats that knock the sense, the control from the singer. Byrne is knocked about stage, apparently thrown and disoriented by the strange new chaotic sounds. All at once order is restored and the song continues. If this doesn 't sound like an ordinary con- cert film it is because Stop Making Sense is an ex- traordinary concert film. At the center of the performance is David Byrne. Eventually all the other members of the Talking Heads join him on stage, member by member , building the sound and music of the Talking Heads. Byrne is on stage throughout the entire concert ex- cept for one song by the band's alter ego, the Tom Tom Club. He conceived the stage performance, and of course is the driving force behind The Talking Heads. There's only one element of the film which outshines Byrne and that is the music of the band. There is non-stop music including all of The Talk- ing Heads better known songs i.e. "Burning Down the House" and "Life During Wartime," mixed i n with the less popularly recognized ones. There are songs to appeal to all levels of Heads fans. Stop Making Sense accomplishes the difficult task of capturing the spirit of the concert, Unlike the sterile Rol ling St ones' Let 's Spend the Might Together, this filmed concert communicates (he ex- citement and energy of a Talking Heads performance.
