4The Daily Tar HeelWednesday, February 16. 1983 Album, live show 1 packs talent in By D.F. WILSON Staff Writer mondo, adj. lotsa, whole bunch, big montage, n. A composite photograph or other artistic composition consisting of several superimposed components. In generic terms, that's Mondo Montage, but in reality, there's nothing generic about it. In fact, that's exactly what makes this Dolphin Records compilation album so special it presents the best of the best. So don't expect to find just anything. A regional rock 'n' roll melting pot it's not. The styles do range, though, from the R&B of Use Uyanik and the Mobile City Band to the neo-pop of Let's Active. Nor is there anything passe about this album. The closest to that would be the power-pop of Virginia's States, though even that has its redeemable merits. Most of the songs reaffirm beliefs, some confirm suspicions, and there are even a couple of surprises in the package. The real threats come from The Snap, Let's Active and, Rick Rock. Review Featuring the vocals of Donna Von Flock, The Snap's "Voice of America" opens side one and "Modern Girl" is on the other. Both tunes tread that undefineable line of eclecticism, using influences of '60s rock, power-pop and whatever else they need. Though not as polished as they should be, these two cuts point out The Snap as one band to see. Though Let's Active's "Room With A View," was a last-minute addition, it certainly was a wise one. Mitch Easter may spend most of his time in the studio, but it's usually working for someone else. Featuring the vocals of bassist Faye Hunter, "Room" is an ap propriate example of the band's capabilities, exhibiting Easter's quirky . sense of rhythm and melody. The record's key cuts, however, come from Rick Miller's latest trio incarnate, Rick Rock. Featuring Miller (Rock) on guitar, Andy Church on bass and Chip Shelby on drums, this project has been underway and under wraps since May. The wait was worth it. ; The band's two tracks, "Looking For a Sputnik" - which dates back to Miller's days with the Dads and "Buddha, Buddha," are both senseless little ditties, but they're great senseless little ditties. The formulas of melody and arrangement are anything but stagnant. And talk about catchy twice through and you know them by heart. Fortunately, the Triangle finally got its first glimpse of Rick Rock as they headlined the Mondo Montage show at The Pier in Raleigh Mon day night not bad for a premiere show. Lise Uyanik and the Mobile City Band opened the show with the ti tle cut from their EP Shut Up and Dance and tore through an extreme ly tight set of R&B featuring their two contributions, "Love is Fine" and a remake of the Ronettes "I Can Hear Music." Uyanik and Co. even covered Moonpie's contribution "Tore Up," and brought on special guest Shakin' Sherman Tate of the Blazers to do one of Mon do' s treats, the song Tate recorded with the Texas Toads (Mitch Easter and Arrogance's Don Dixon), "Drink You Off My Mind." .Sandwiched in between were the X-Teens, leaning heavily on new material such as their contribution, "Heaven In Your Eyes" and their previous single "Anyone Can," though they did date themselves by t t fr ,- .. 1 DTMO.F. Wilson Andy Church plays bass for Rick Rock playing "Venus" from Big Boy's Dream. Probably because of the set ting, their show Monday night was vastly improved over their perfor mance opening for the Psychedelic Furs at Duke in January. Rick Rock opened the show with their own brand of Valentine humor by wearing giant red foil hearts on their backs and playing a classic hard-rock trio finale complete with at least sue false endings, and continued with their humor doing a rock 'n roll exercise song complete with demonstrations. They also showed that their collective tongue does sometimes come out of their cheek when they played "American Blues." "Chickenshit Love," however, showed just how quickly it could go back in. And of course everyone knew the words to "Sputnik" and "Buddha." Off -campus students meeting By KAREN MOORE Staff Writer A meeting for of f-campus students interested . in living on campus next year will be held today at 7 p.m. in room 216 of the Carolina Union. A drawing for off-campus students to gain a . place on the waiting list for on-campus housing ' will be held March 2, said Brenda Allen, University housing off-campus coordinator. . Contracts for that drawing will be available at tonight's meeting or at the University housing office in Carr Building. The contract and a $75 deposit are due in the Housing Office by March 1, Allen said. Students who missed the on-campus drawing . also may participate in the drawing, Allen said, said. .. -,: "-V ' ; -". v: Graduate students are excluded from the off campus drawing.- Craige Residence Hall resi dents are guaranteed a place in the dormitory, while other graduate students are put on a waiting list. Approximately 1,300 students participate in the off-campus drawing, Allen said. "Everyone on the list will get a space," she said. "It may be during the semester or may not be until spring semester." "We update the list and keep students in formed," ADen said. series Allen suggested that lottery participants be able to be put in any dormitory, as opposed to a particular dormitory as their final choice. "He (or she) will get a space before someone who has asked for three particular dorms that have been filled," she said. A symposium for students who are closed out of University housing will be held March 3 in the Union auditorium, Allen said. Student, community and utility organizations will be available at the symposium, as well as apartment managers, Allen said. Organizations represented will include Duke Power, Southern Bell and the Student Consumer Action Union. From page 1 ethics From page 1 Only Dostal and Susan Sparks (District 9), the third member of the committee, voted on Vogler's sanction because Painter felt his vote would be a conflict of interest, Painter said. In a Student Supreme Court case to be decid ed tonight, Painter is charging that the Student Activity Fee referendum bill passed by the CGC Feb. 2 was invalid because of Vogler's nonresi dent status. Because Vogler was not a member of the council, the meeting did not meet its 14-member quorum, and so the bill was passed invalidly. ! No one had openly questioned Vogler's status as a member until Painterjiled suit with die Stu dent Supreme Court following the Feb. 2 meet ing, althoughTainter said he knew Vogler was living out of his district and thussviolating the bylaws during the meeting. ; '. Painter said he did not take action against Vogler in the Ethics Committee before the fee referendum . bill was passed because action should not have been taken except in cases of misconduct, he said. Painter did not reveal that he knew Vogler's resident status until after the fee bill was passed. "It isn't anything that I planned, but I did use that avenue because it was the most convenient available," Painter said. "I have no interest in causing Bobby any pain." Vogler said he did not object to the Ethics Committee's actions, but wished the committee had taken action earlier. "I'm sorry that it had to come to this," he said. "I wish that if people knew of my moving earlier, they would have .addressed it earlier. I, .think (Painter) knew about it earlier, and a lot . of other people did, too." ' Vogler also said that if it were not for the Stu dent Supreme Court case, Painter never would have brought charges against him in the Ethics Committee. Although Painter said he was reluctant to take the violation to the Ethics Committee, he said he was surprised that the committee's sanc tion was so light. "I thought the Ethics Committee made the wrong decision,", he said. "Censure is just, a slap on the wrist, and it sets a bad precedent when someone has flagrantly violated the laws." Both Vogler and Painter said the Ethics Com mittee's action probably would have no effect on the Supreme Court's decision tonight. other things besides interact with students out side the classroom. I like teaching very much . and I enjoy the students in my classes, but sometimes students drop in my house unan nounced. I resent that. I like my privacy. There are a few undergraduates I have ... I see them on campus, I like them very much and we get to talking ... but there's so few who engage me and who take the initiative. I'd like to have more of that -on campus, rather than in my home at night. But I don't know how to do it. Brown I think another thing that's been said about students is that they're much more career-oriented. I find fewer students contem plating their navels these days than when I first started teaching six years ago. Students are very concerned about getting a job when they get out. I'm not sure I can say I blameithem.' Galligan The University is becoming much more dominated by career orientation in education. I think a student education has .r become less and less .valuable. If yotf set a career objective fine enough you can indicate very clearly the steps that should be taken by the students to get to that end. I don't think in the meantime they've had very much of a liberating experience a chance to liberate themselves from certain narrow confines, a certain set of assumptions or values. We talk about the changing economic conditions and students responding to that. We seem to be talking as though this was all determined and that we as University faculty had no power over these matters. I think that indeed we do. The new curriculum is a definite improvement, even though it's compromised. DTI I: Education here is sometimes described as a passive education. Is that your experience? Galligan The students tend to be very passive. I find this in philosophy classes over a period of time. Students come to classes in philosophy with the sort of expectation that they're just there to take notes and they don't have to speak or participate. I think that's partly a function of being in very large classes where they can't really Darticipate most of the time. Obler There's a kind of educational atti tude at this University where every department does just what it wants to do as far as its education is concerned. There's no real effort to coordinate what departments do. . In our department we refuse to have large classes besides the introductory course. I think it's kind of sad when I go into Carroll Hall and I see 450 people sitting in an auditorium. It's a "very impersonal and passive experience.

It's like going to a movie theatre or Johnny Carson or something. Thornton I think that students should be ! more aware that practices in this sort of thing are set by individual departments. DTH: The faculty here are predominantly, white males. How does this effect the students' education? Wood In the last four or five years I've become very convinced about the importance of the role modeling. Women need to see other women who are professionals and who are pursuing careers to recognize that as a realistic possibility for themselves. I was struck last semester by a student who said to me I was the first female instructor she'd had. And she's a senior. That's a shocking kind of a thought in terms of where it leaves women and their pos sibilities in professions. Thornton I think the problem is a very dif ferent thing to overcome in the University even if you're trying quite" hard to overcome it, es pecially in our experience in the English de partment with black teachers. I chaired a search committee a couple of years ago and we had about 160 applicants for a job. from what I've been able to determine, we had not a single black applicant for that position. Now that is disturbing, and I know that. But it's just not an easy thing to overcome. I don't think we should excuse ourselves for that reason but I know that in some quarters real attempts are being made to work this out. Hiskey I think it just means that we have to keep pushing it as a problem that really needs to be addressed. I guess I have faith that in the next decade we'll be better off 10 years from now than we are today. And we're cer tainly better off today than we were 10 years ago. . Wood I want to pick up on an idea that only women could teach women and men . could teach men. I think that would be terribly destructive. A slight variation of that is the sense I sometimes feel among some of my male colleagues that it is primarily the women faculty members' responsibility to do the role modeling and to somehow make the extra ef fort with the women students. I think it's just as important that the male faculty members' take their , women students seriously and demonstrate that. DTH: To what extent does teaching ability en ter into the hiring process here? Obler There's a real tension here. We have a position in our department for whiclf we have six people. The person who would be the best undergraduate teacher, I don't think will get the job because his promise as a pub lishing scholar is not as good as another appli cant who I don't think will be as good a teacher. But then again, the value of the degree is not only in the quality of the teaching but in the reputation of the University. That reputa tion hinges to some extent on the quality of the publication of the faculty. Brown There is certainly a tradeoff. I have a friend who was just coming to a depart ment and was told that if she was going to get tenure she should minimize the importance of undergraduate teaching. Unks Part of the difficult is that effective teaching is such as elusive thing to define that virtually anyone could come in here with a ere- dential that will say they're a real 'good teacher. But not everyone could come in here with a credential that will list 20 fine, well-written articles. It's easier to count the number of journal articles. Probably every applicant br ings in a statement from someone that says Mr. So-and-so is a very effective teacher. DTH: Is this University more teaching oriented or research-oriented? Obler I think at a small college such as Davidson they really care more about teaching than at a place such as UNC. Here we care much more about research. ' , ' Thornton I'm sure that's true to some ex- , tent but I think there is another side to it. Since we're talking about a university here that has graduate programs and professional schools, one thing that the faculty and students should just take for granted and expect is that your faculty members are expected to publish, to read papers, to go to conferences. I think that in the overall balance and tradeoff, I suspect that the undergraduate students probably gain as much from that as they lose. DTH: Are you motivated by your students? Hiskey There are a lot of good students in Chapel Hill. I think what we've been involv ed with over the last 10 minutes really doesn't relate necessarily to our interest in teaching, our appreciation or our interaction with stu dents. Unks Yes. I didn't mean to imply that the average student was a totally unconcerned, beer-drinking fool. Wood Students here are perfectly willing not only to do what's required but to go be yond it if they feel the professor is making an equivalent kind of an investment. It take a balance in expectation. BEGINNER OR AD VANCEDCo stirabout, the same as aisertiestef'in'a U.S.,cdllege;-'t' $3,189.
