The audience filling Playmakers Theatre for the Tar Heel Voices concert on Saturday night was lucky enough to see such a group in action. Tar Heel Voices is the only group in UNC's a cappella scene made up of both men and women. This combina tion gives the ensemble the opportunity to treat their audiences to a multitude of great sounds and harmonies that are not possible in a group composed of only men or women. The concert's theme, "Random," was reflected in the stage props, costumes and repertoire. The stage boasted a strange hodge podge of pictures and objects such as Mr. Clean, various flags, an Oscar Meyer wiener and an assortment of soothing momentum toys. The costumes of the performers were both strange and entertaining. Imagine "Only the Good Die Young" being sung by a man sporting a toga and tennis shoes this was just the beginning of the craziness. Though the props and costumes served as interesting compli ments to the show, it was the talent of the performers that held the audience's attention. The group showed off their talent in harmonies by beginning with the selec tion "We Belong," which featured a three-part female harmony. From this song on, the audience was captivated Money.

The ensemble created a variety of moods as they switched from somber selections such as "It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday," "Nothing Com pares 2U" and "Rain, Rain, Beautiful Rain"to lighthearted songs like "Makin' Whoopee," "Starfish and Coffee" and "Zombie Jamboree." The closeness of the group was evi dent as they gathered in a cluster for some of the songs. Throughout the per formance, the members kept the beat effectively and supported each other well. The group not only entertained the audience through their singing but also performed a variety of skits and inter acted with the audience. Interest was piqued as the audience played Bingo throughout the perfor mance, hoping to snag a "mystery gift." Sadly, the winner of the prize was in structed to open the gift after the show because it was "dangerous". One entertaining skit was an episode in the life of The Invisible Man. Since he has a "fairly boring life just like every other person," he decides to an tagonize a fel low bus rider on the way to work. Unfortunately, it is a short ride and The Invisible Man must end his game when he gets to his stop by kicking his companion in the groin. The group depicted life on the UNC campus as they sang "these are the people in your neighborhood ..." and proceeded to do entertaining imitations of such campus fixtures as Lenoir work ers and Pit preachers. One of the performance's strong points was the diverse repertoire. Though many of the selections were pop, less known songs were also fea tured as well as "Qualm Dulces Est Amor," which tells the story of Jesus's birth. The group handled all styles ef fortlessly and used effective dynamics throughout the show. The concert concluded with the sing ing of the alma mater as the Tar Heel Voices joined by both their visiting alumni and the audience, but more fun was in store. As an encore, the group performed "I Got Friends in Low Places," which ap pealed to the audience so much that they happily joined in with the last two cho ruses, clapping and yel I ing in a way that made it seem as if Garth Brooks himself was visiting Playmakers Theatre to do a recording. The Tar Heel Voices soon are having auditions for next year, and their signs read, "If you can sing higher than the stars, lower than a snake's belly, or anywhere in between ..." indicative of their lighthearted attitude and range of members. The diversity is there, and as shown in Saturday night'sconcert, its appeal is widespread. campaign left off.

A successful example was the Uni versity of Wisconsin where the chan cellor provided money for another mi nority faculty member when one was hired. Hardin said he had offered an incen tive program at Drew University, but it was not possible at UNC. "It's a perfectly sound idea," he said. "But I don't have the slots to provide for extra faculty here because of the budget crunch." Student Body President Matt Heyd said each department had to step up recruitment efforts. "A lot of the burden lies on the indi vidual department chairs to actively re cruit and look for Native-American faculty."
