Black history Uld culture will high- light Black Awareness Month during February at TCU. "To Be Young. Gifted and Black is the theme of the month. "The slogan was chosen because it is deep and powerful," said Annette Blanton. president of the Black Stu- dent Caucus. "The ke\ word is 'gifted. Many people in our community and on cam- pus are gilted and everyone needs to realize that. Blanton said. Black Awareness Month is co- sponsored by the Black Student Caucus, the 1 louse ol Student Repre- sentatives, and the Forums Commit- tee-Programming Council A lecture series, concerts, and a Valentine Ball arc among the activi- ties scheduled lor the month.

We want to involve the entire campus, Blanton said. Unlike other awareness events, black awareness will have events sponsored throughout the entire month rather than one week. "A month gives more time lor peo- ple to find out about black history and become aware of it. The goal of Black Awareness Month is not just to have an awareness of the past, but to see where we are right now and what we can expect in the future," said Stu- dent Activities Advisor, Patricia Kane. Kane said one ol the purposes of the program is to share and enjoy the black cultural heritage with everyone. "Students should understand that it is an educational program that affects everybody, said Dean Libby Proffer. "Society in general has come a long way in the area of racial relations. TCU has made a lot of progress also, but 1 don't think that we've made all the progress that we should." Proffer also said more white stu- dents should attend the events. Black Awareness Month is also set- ting the stage for the future "It's not something that should be given atten- tion for just a month. We need to be aware ol it the rest of the time, too," Kane said. '.J^P "It's helpful to highlight these things, but when it's over we can't think that everybody's educated and all our problems are solved," Proffer said. "It just doesn't happen that way. It's a year-long problem," Rene Ozuna, a junior music major, plays the saxaphone with the TCU Jazz Ensemble.
