& PRELUDE

A ' praised freshman orientation pro¬ grams in the nation. While Passages helps prepare the freshman for the transition into col¬ lege in one aspect Prelude helps pre¬ pare them for die transition in anoth¬ er — namely, academics. Through a seriesofreadingand writing exercises in small groups, freshmen start to get a feel for college-level scholastics. They may read a short story and then draft a thesis about its meaning and implications, and finally discuss it with the group. Or they may stretch > their observation skills as they poke and prod a potato for 15 minutes in response to the instructor's prompt, "Define that potato." Together, Prelude and Passages form a freshmen orientation program unique in the nation. During a time of great personal change, they chal ¬ lenge the individual to think, to take risks, and to grow. Truly, mi excellent way to start an education® — Greg Craven

Jmu ELECTION ’88

WITH THE POLLS SPLIT NEARLY IN HALF UP UNTIL ELECTIOn DAY ITSELF, THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE IN 1988 left each party with high hopes of victory. Around campus, political discussions could be heard drifting out of class¬ rooms and study carrels. Normally accused of apathy, UPS students made headline news with Bush and Dukakis pro¬ tests alike. Both candidates were invited to speak on campus, but Bush refused to speak at a question and answer session with UPS students and so moved the site of his speech to the Bicentennial Pavilion in Tacoma. Dukakis was wel ¬ comed to the Fieldhouse by a standing-room-only crowd of 5,000 people. More important than the political rallies, however, were 1 the candidates' speeches themselves. Dukakis's much- touted immigrant background seemed to rejuvenate the American dream, while Bush concentrated on continuing the economic prosperity cultivated by Reaganomics. His anti-abortion stance seemed a drawback but he was elec ¬ ted President of the United States on November 8, 1988, by a close 52% of the votes cast. — Kathleen King

" THIS WEEKEND. HE WILL BE HERE THIS WEEKEND. DU¬ KAKIS IS COMING TO PUGET SOUND. PM SURE OF IT." As with any place of note Puget Sound has its share of political and celebrity visitors each year. If visiting the campus it is no telling who one might bump into. Fawn Hall. Ramsey Lewis. Robin Williams . . . Democratic candidate for president, Massachusetts Gover¬ nor Michael Dukakis came to campus during the first week of November. It was that rare campaign appearance that drew national attention and stirred up plenty of chaos on campus. Over 14,000 people from around the state and Northwest turned out to see the Dukakis entourage in the Fieldhouse. The facility was packed and so was the tennis pavilion. Many supporters were unable to see any of the presentation and simply stood outside the building. Dukakis's visit was billed as a Democratic rally and nearly every Democratic candidate and incumbant from across the state traveled to the celebration. Sharing the platform were the likes of Representatives Mike Lowry and Norm Dicks, candidates Denny Heck and George Fleming and Governor and Mrs. Booth Gardner. Dukakis brought along his own well known group of supporters which pushed the on stage crowd to overflowing. Celebrity campaigners such as Carrie Fisher, Rob Lowe, Hal Linden and Michael Landon were all on hand to offer their support for the Duke. Many of them had been traveling with the camp for months. Governor Gardner had the opportunity to introduce the Democratic candidate's wife, Kitty Dukakis, as well as his V daughters. "I've always known that he would be a great president. Here is the next president of the United States and my passionate partner, Michael Dukakis," Kitty said in introducing him to the cheering crowd. Neil Diamond's America was roaring in the background and hundreds of voices were chanting "Duke, Duke, Duke". Dukakis talked about the road to the White House and borrowed an anecdote from John F. Kennedy comparing elephants in the circus with those incumbant office holders trying to be elected. "Bush thinks he can inherit the White House. I think you have to eam the right to be president," he said. During the course of his speech Dukakis touched upon the minimum wage issue, equal pay for women, health insurance, and the environment. "We'll lead an administration that believes in clean air, clean water, a clean environment, and a clean government," hesaid. Following the speech Dukakis met with a selected group of administrators and students. In this meeting those present had the opportunity to ask the governor questions. He talked about business concerns, corporate mergers, AIDS research funding, drug problems, and tax withholdings. “ In thiscountry if we accepted a policy in which peoplecould decide to withhold a certain amount of their taxes because they didn't like particular policies, this country would not survive long as a representative democracy," he said. In organizing the rally local Democratic activists worked around the clock. They had to mobilize event staff, distribute publicity, and hold a training session the day before the appearance with local volunteers and advance staff from the y- Dukakis campaign. Fuget Sound student Shauna James was s» actively involved with the planning and staging of the event. She had been working with others for several weeks to get the 3Dukakis campaign to make a swing into Tacoma. O "I was so thrilled when they decided to come. It was a 3 wonderful experience." 3w — Staff

11 there are some - 1 J ' k — places close to campus that are completely r removed from the campus environment. Places where one can go and hang out or play pool or just visit with friends. Some campus's have facilities for students and faculty to join together for a beer and a chat. Puget Sound does not have such a place but plenty of nearby locations serve the same purpose for those who have such a desire. A few of those who become Puget Sound landmarks; places where students have shared a laugh or shot some pool. Those establishments include places like The Spar, Engine House #9,The West End Taven, Harbor Lights, Katie Downs,Terry's Office Supply and Red Robin. And each one has a special J reason why it is on the list of favorite places. The West End *esl £r>3 always hasa pool table open.

:" , a? r . S !?/ is 1 m m. l - GANGSTER-RIDDEN CHICAGO WAS PROBABLY NOT THE SET¬ TING WHICH JOSEE HADEL INTENDED HIS "BEGGAR'S OPERA" to be played in. First performed in 1728, the opera satirized lawyers, politicians, and the pomposity of Italian Opera — sub¬ UPS jects which it is still Kosher to make fun of today. The main character, beggar Darrell Hunt, composes his beg¬ gar's opera in the waiting room of the Chicago City Jail. The parts are performed (stunningly) by a motley group of prostitutes, pimps, drunkards, and general vagrants. The plot revolves around the elegant gangster, Captain Ma¬ cheath (Jonathan Frank), whohas seduced the innocent daughter of his rival into marriage. Far from a fairytale romance, their OPERA marriage is merely a diversion for the dastardly Captain. "If I were a man who loves money," he brags,"l might be as happy with one dollar, as I would with one woman!" One look at his devilish smile and any woman's a victim, thus he is never lacking in female company. His misadventures do not lead to his happiness, however, but to the gallows. Our story might end there, except for a plea from the orchestra conductor (what?!) that the beggar end his opera BEGS happily, in the tradition of great Italian opera. The beggar relents and Captain Macheath is granted a last-minute reprieve, to the overwhelming joy of the seven "hussies" who call him husband. The musical score contains a number of familiar songs, includ¬ ing"Greensleeves", which liven the plotand provide a medium for the UPS Opera members to display their talents. Although some FOR APPLAUSE! characters were weak on acting skills, (J. Frank definitely excep¬ ted), the music resounding off the walls in Jacobsen Recital Hall was incredible. Our congratulations to the UPS Opera Theatre on a stunning performance ®

HONORS FILM SERIES CELE¬ BRATES "COMING OF AGE." PRE- senting a series of thought-pro¬ voking films, both foreign and do¬ mestic, the series focused on the 7* world of children at the mad mo¬ ment when their innocence is shat¬ tered. The intrusion of complex adulthood is especially poignant, since for many of us it is a very recent realization. Such great films as the Swedish classic, "Fanny and Alexander", or the well-known "Breakfast at Tiffany's"are indicative of thequali¬ ty of the films featured. The films were presented as a co¬ operative effort between ASUPS Campus Films and the Honors Se¬ ries.

Behind the words that are being spoken a subtle tension keeps surfacing. What is going on? As theguests mingle it becomes AnPUS MURDER. very clear that all of the supposed friends are not on such grand terms.

Suddenly, one of the SORT O more visible in the group cries out and collapses by the piano. Within a few minutes it is obviousthatthis one person who will never speak again. Who is responsible for the m murder? Because the murderer is most likely in the room no one is al¬ lowed to leave and everyone is ushered in to the dining room. It is going to be a truly unforgettable meal. As the meal is being served rumors are flying at every table. The number one suspect varies with each story being told. But on one in the room can forget thefact that the murderer is in the room. What will happen? By the time the dessert is to be served so are the array of public guesses from all present.
