Ifs simple economics—the supply of seats for most performing arts events at Colby is grossly smaller than the demand. Building a new performing arts center would benefit the College in several ways. Besides obviously letting all parents watch, their children perform during Family Weekend, it could allow us to bring big-name Speakers and musicians to Colby. We could provide them with a better jvenue to talk or perform, and it would help us attract members of the larger Watervillecommunity to the show because we could sell them tick- ets to a more attractive location than the field house. While the field house obviously represents an area large enough to accommodate many people, it does not provide a good atmosphere for musical events. Its size is over- Whelming, and it has poor acoustics. ; As a College, we should and we must demand better. Similar institu- tions such as Middlebury and Bowdoin have excellent performance facil- ities, and we cannot allow ourselves to fall further behind. As the admin- istration begins to work on the master plan for College expansion over the next 50 years, the Echo hopes that the need for an adequate performance fepace is put at the forefront of the agenda.
•Why can't the Cdby student cross the road?
< Why is it that no one driving around our campus yields the ri ght of way to pedestrians? On numerous occasions, pedestrians have been seen Starting to enter the crosswalk, but quickly leaping back in order to avoid an oncoming car that shows no signs of stopping. It is especially frustrat- ing when a pedestrian stands at the crosswalk and attempts to make eye contact with the driver. It should be perfectly obvious what the pedestri- an is trying to do, but more often than not, the car (often driven by a Colby student) keeps cruising along. The state of Maine fines drivers who do not Letters "Who let the dogs out?" yield to pedestrians, so why doesn't anyone yield?
