Excerpts will be played from songs by Ruth Brown, the Mello-Kings, Elvis Presley, Richie Valens, the Beatles, Donovan, Cream, the Mothers of Invention and others. Hansen says that the rock audience has grown to include a great many people over 21. "They're the people who heard Presley's music when they were children," he explains. "They've been living with rock all their lives. It's their native tongue. That's one of the reasons, I think, that rock is much better now. The people who are playing and listening to it have grown up in the world of rock. It's not a fad anymore; it's the musical language they know and speak best." Hansen adds, "I believe there is as much musical sophistication, power and intelligence in rock music as in today's classical music or modern jazz. Albums now, in rock music, are increasingly being made to listen to all the way through. What you have more and more is a record being made as a finished work of art." (MORE) ROCK REVOLUTION -2- One such record is the Beatles' new album, "Sergeant Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band." It will be broadcast, complete, over KUOM inunediately following "The Rock Revolution." Hansen, 26, graduated from University High School in 1959. He received a bachelor of arts degree from Reed College, Portland, Ore., in 1963 and a master of arts degree in music from UCLA this year. His master's thesis was entitled "Negro Popular Music: 1945-1953." Hansen is a former editor of the folk music journal, "Little Sandy Review," and has written for "Downbeat," "Sing-Out," and "Record Research" magazines. He now works as archivist for UCLA's John Edwards Memorial Foundation, an organization which collects and studies commercial folk and country music recordings. "The Rock Revolution" is a special feature of "The Saturday Show," heard each week over KUOM from 2 p.m. to sign-off. "The Saturday Show" is a departure from the station's usual format in that it includes more jazz, conversation, and "frivolity" than is normally broadcast over KUOM. The station is an educational service of the University's General Extension Division. -U N S- ~------------~~---~~ UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA NEWS SERVICE~220 MORRILL HALL MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55~55 NOVEMBER 1, 1967 For further information, contact: JUDY VICK, 373-2126 CELLIST TO PERFORM WITH 'u' ORCHESTRA IN NORTHROP CONCERT (FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE) Joseph Schuster, one of the world's top-ranking cellists, will be the featured soloist when the University of Minnesota Symphony Orchestra presents its opening concert of the season Friday, Nov. 10, at 8:30 p.m. in Northrop auditorium.

"The exhibit is a treat -- bright candy of all flavors, yet rich in intellectual content," says Charles C. Savage III, director of the gallery. "His paintings are an attack on the visual sensibilities and allow no intrusion. His titles seem to corroborate his fantasy obsession with love." The showing, one of the largest ever presented by the University Gallery, will include 36 works---oil on canvas, oil on paper and watercolor. Davie's works are ostensibly abstract expressionistic. Vividly colored symbols---ranging from numerals to household Objects to ancient religious forms---are superimposed on rich, somber colors. The titled works include "Oh To Be a Serpent, That I May Love You Longer," "Reach for Joy," "Flyaway Slide," "Make Love to He On the Blue's Edge," III Love You In Pink," "Make a Fish," "Holyman's Game," and "Lustful Frog." Davie was born in Scotland. He attended Edinburgh College of Art and taught art to young children before becoming, for a short time, a pro- fessional jazz musician. At one time he made his living by creating and selling gold and silver jewelry. He now lives in Hertfordshire and Cornwall and continues to be devoted to the sport of gliding. Davie has had one-man shows in Edinburgh, Florence, Venice, London (Gimpel Fils), Paris, New York City (Hartha Jackson), Zurich, Sao Paulo, Oslo, Bern, Baden-Baden and Amsterdam. The Davie show will be open through Dec. 29 in the third floor galleries of Northrop auditorium, University of Minnesota, MinneapOlis campus. Hours are 8 a.m.

CARAHER QUEEN’S UNIVERSITY BELFAST, NORTHERN IRELAND [email protected] Article received on 29.01.2013 Accepted on 06.07.2013 ABSTRACT This article examines socio-historical dimensions and cultural and dramaturgic implications of the Greek playwright Euripides’ treatment of the myth of Medea. Euripides gives voice to victims of adventurism, aggression and betrayal in the name of ‘reason’ and the ‘state’ or ‘polity.’ Medea constitutes one of the most powerful mythic forces to which he gave such voice by melodramatizing the disturbing liminality of Greek tragedy’s perceived social and cultural order. The social polity is confronted by an apocalyptic shock to its order and its available modes of emotional, rational and social interpretation. Euripidean melodramas of horror dramatize the violation of rational categories and precipitate an abject liminality of the tragic vision of rational order. The dramaturgy of Euripides’ Medea is contrasted with the norms of Greek tragedy and examined in comparison with other adaptations — both ancient and contemporary — of the myth of Medea, in order to unfold the play’s transgression of a tragic vision of the social polity. KEYWORDS Dramaturgy, Euripides, liminality, Medea, melodrama, preternatural powers, social polity, tragedy. TRAGEDIA, EURÍPIDES, MELODRAMA: HAMARTÍA, MEDEA, LIMINALIDAD RESUMEN Este artículo estudia las dimensiones sociohistóricas y las implicaciones culturales y teatrales del tratamiento que Eurípides da al mito de Medea. Eurípides da voz a las víctimas del aventurerismo, de las agresiones y de las traiciones cometidas en nombre de la ‘razón’ y del ‘estado’ o el ‘gobierno’.

Tate Hall (Tate Hall) Renovation Minneapolis, MN April 2019, Minneapolis, MN Sustainable Post-Occupancy Evaluation Survey (SPOES) B3 Guidelines Caren S. Martin, PhD Abimbola Asojo, PhD (contact: [email protected]) ([email protected]) Martin & Guerin Design Research, LLC Suyeon Bae, PhD Minneapolis, MN College of Design University of Minnesota 1.0 Overview The purpose of this report is to examine the connection between sustainable design criteria used in the design of the UMTC John T. Tate Hall (Tate Hall) facility and occupants’ satisfaction with their classroom environments located in this building. The Tate Hall facility renovation was designed using the 2009 B3 Guidelines (formerly known as the Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines or MSBG), which were in effect at the time that the new facility was completed for occupancy in August 2017. The B3 Guidelines track specific state-funded, B3 buildings as a means of demonstrating real outcomes aimed at the conservation of energy resources, creation and maintenance of healthy environments, and occupants’ satisfaction with their environments. The Sustainable Post-Occupancy Evaluation Survey (SPOES) was developed to assess human outcomes in workplace, classroom, and residence hall settings in compliance with the B3 Guidelines project tracking requirements. This is a report of occupants’ (hereafter called students) responses at 14 months post-occupancy. The survey was conducted in late-October through early-November 2018. This SPOES report focuses on students’ satisfaction with the physical environment as related to 23 indoor environmental quality (IEQ) criteria such as lighting, thermal, and acoustic conditions in their primary classrooms.

The main Accessible Arts Calendar listings (emailed monthly through August 2019 and online at http://vsamn.org/community/calendar) offer descriptions of shows, authors, directors, describer & interpreter names, ticket prices, discounts, dates for Pay What You Can (PWYC), and more. This Current Venues and Shows list supplements the Accessible Arts Calendar. On our website as a Resource under Community (http://vsamn.org/community/resources-community/), it summarizes shows at arts venues across Minnesota: plays, concerts, exhibits, films, storytelling, etc. It’s limited to what we learn about and have time to include. The venues are organized alphabetically by Twin Cities venues and then by Greater Minnesota venues. They may offer accessible performances proactively or upon request. Words in GREEN identify some accessibility accommodations. We assume all auditoriums and bathrooms are wheelchair-accessible and theatres with fixed seating have assistive listening devices, unless noted otherwise.

  • Without a Concerted Effort, Our State's Historic and Cultural Treasures Are in Danger of Being Lost to Time. the Minnesota
    Without a concerted effort, our state’s historic and cultural treasures are in danger of being lost to time. The Minnesota Historical Society awarded a Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Grant in the amount of $7,000 to the City of Mankato. The grant was approved by the Society’s awards committee on July 22, 2010 and will support its Historic Survey of 12 Properties for Local Designation Project. Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Grants are made possible by the Minnesota Legislature from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund created with passage of the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment to the Minnesota Constitution in November 2008. The grants are awarded to support projects of enduring value for the cause of history and historic preservation across the state. Historic Survey of 12 Properties for Local Designation Project The Historic Survey of 12 Properties for Local Designation Project is a project of enduring value because it will provide a list of properties to be listed on Mankato’s Local Historic Registry. The project begins on October 1, 2010 with an anticipated completion date of February 1, 2011. The project will include conducting historic surveys on 12 properties for potential local designation. “It is wonderful to see so many communities and local organizations benefitting from the Historical and Cultural Heritage Grants,” said Britta Bloomberg, deputy state historic preservation officer. “Minnesotans should be proud of the unprecedented opportunities these grants provide for organizations to preserve and share our history and cultural heritage. The impact of projects supported by Historical and Cultural Heritage Grants will be felt throughout the state for many years to come.” City of Mankato Historic Properties Survey and Local Designation Inventory Form Report Prepared for the City of Mankato Heritage Preservation Commission Prepared by Thomas R.
