BLISS supports both one and four andNEWS supports number one and is neutralon number four.Referendum item three, supported byBLISS and opposed by NEWS calls for theelimination of one of the students on thefinance committee and the appointment ofan administration representative to thecommitteeThe other controversial amendment,referendum two, takes the power to fill SGvacancies away from the student body in ageneral election and places it in the hands ofthe assembly. BLISS members support themeasure because, they claim, it wouldenhance the efficiency of the assembly andNEWS members oppose it, charging thatthe proposal violates the democraticprinciple of the SG constitutionStudents last year approved a new SGconstitution that included the direct electionof officers, a mandatory three-dollar per-quarter activity fee, the elimination ofadministration representation on thefinance committee, and changes in the SGconstituency. Although the electoral andstructural changes have gone into effect,administration opposition has blocked thefee and the finance committee proposal.Last spring, BLISS candidates swept the first SG election m which the assembly’sexecutive officers were elected at largeVoters elected BLISS candidates aspresident, vice-president, treasurer,secretary, and chair of the finance com¬mittee. Only two of the 44 BLISS candidateswere defeated in the election in which anunusually large 17 percent of the studentbody voted.Students for Constructive Action, theparty which many current NEWS sup¬porters were associated with in the lastelection, fared badly, despite the fact thatmany SCA candidates were SG incumbents.Prince Charles from 1sculpture, “Nuclear Energy,” which standson the spot where the first man-madesustained nuclear reaction took place.After the tour, His Royal Highness willhave tea in the commons room of Swift Halland will leave the campus at 4 pm.Prince Charles’ University visit is part ofhis first official visit to the United States, a12-day stay.

Since he neverwent over to see what w as really happening,he now' states unequivocally that MidwayStudio is filled with naked people, cheapwhite wine, and congested ashtrays.Unfortunately, little has been done todispel this common notion Midway Studio isthe center for Visual Arts at the UniversityMerelv hv virtue of its physical separationfrom the Quads, many are ignorant of itsexistence or confused about its purposes. Inturn, the Visual Arts people tend to feelisolated and unloved.The Studio is actually two buildings: abrick house built in 1929 and used by thesculptor Lorado Taft and a connected annexmade possible with a 197:5 donation from theWomen’s Board of the University. The brickhouse contains a gallery, an'office, thestudios of faculty and graduate (MFA)students, a graphics studio, and shelves andpotters’ wheels for ceramics (now used by asole graduate student). Painting is taught inthe annex. Five instructors, Tom Mapp,Bob Peters, Vera Element, LauraVolkerding, and Kanani Bell, and 16graduate students use the Studio on a dailybasis. Approximately 11 undergraduatesare enrolled in the College’s Visual Artsdegree program, technically named theCommittee on Art and Design (CAD). Dueto Core requirements, a CAD major spendslittle time in the Studio until his junior andsenior years.In addition to faculty and MFA and CADstudents, a third group uses the Studio:students in the College who are required bytheir divisions to take art (and or music)courses. Much time is devoted to makingthese required classes as attractive aspossible, because the Committee knows thatmanv biology majors preler reading backissues of Time magazine in fetid dormitoryrooms to attending courses called "VisualLanguage ”Relations between the University and theStudio have been, through the years,somewhat strained Generally, MFAstudents take a dim view of the Universityadministration. They claim that Universityofficials are "visually illiterate.” that theQuads are swarming with"phenomenologists who have never ex¬perienced phenomena,” and basically, thatmost members of the University communitywouldn't be caught dead with oil paint ontheir hands. A common frustration amongCAD and MFA students is that studio workplays second fiddle to theoretical studiesWhy have a studio if an art major can tspend as much time as he likes there”Karl Weintraub, dean of the humanitiesdivision, concedes there is a conflict bet¬ween the University’s libera! arts doctrineand the Studio’s intrinsically specialized,practical orientation.He feels such a clash is inevitable at aUniversity where the great, productivescholar” is stressed.

There is a traditionalacademic bias at the University ofThe dean of the College, Jonathan Smith,savs accusations that the Universitydisdains working with the hands areridiculous. "There is a physical componentin every field of study When I draw on ablackboard or a student works in a physicslab we are using our hands.” Smith adds,"Midway Studio is the lab’ for ArtEducation at this university ”•*We do not attempt to be an art school inthe way the Art Institute is, insistsWeintraub.In an effort to deal with the opposingforces of academia and, as Mapp puts It,"digitation.” in 1975 the Committee on Art and Design was created The Committeecomprises the Studio faculty, members ofthe Art Department, and several professorsin the humanities division Smith says he’dlike to see a psychologist on the Committee,too "That would make trouble,” he mused,"but trouble is fun.”The Committee's two primary functionsare to make decisions in the hiring andpromotion of Studio faculty, and to defineand develop the CAD (undergraduate) andMFA (graduate)programs. During the pasttwo years the Committee has made ex¬tensive changes in the undergraduate artscurriculum Smith admits the CAD programhas yet to thoroughly integrate theoreticaland practical studies The Committeereoriented the program to de-emphasizecraft and technique in favor of generalartistic principles, and the CAD Programstresses "problem-solving” in perception,color, design, and description Courses inart history as w'ell as non-art electives andcommon core are required The programadvertises a strong theoretical component"Midway Studio is the 'lab'for art education at thisuniversity." For Carol Studenmund, a third-year CADmajor who transferred from the Universityof Tulsa, CAD is the best of both worldsExtremely interested in photo-ioumalism,Studenmund feels she has benefited asmuch from courses in basic design andcommon core as from learningphotographic techniqueMFA degree candidates are required by CAD to take electives outside the Studio andoutside their particular "media” specialty.The program seeks students who have somepractical training in art, demonstrate ar¬tistic talent, and are interested inacademics"We want students who feel they canbenefit from the more theoretical aspects ofan art education.” says Weintraub "If astudent is unhappy with our MFA program,either he made the wrong decision incoming here or we made a wrong decision inadmitting him ”Smith, agrees that a student with strongobjections to the program shouldn’t be here,but adds that he can understand a certainamount of personal frustration "If astudent is in such a program he must bepretty sure this is what he wants to do withhis life, and naturally will want to spend agood deal of time in the Studio,” he saidLarry Smolucho is an MFA sculpturestudent and director of the Studio’s gallery< which is now exhibiting paintings byChicago artist Mel Theobald He said thatdespite criticism among students of theadministration’s attitude toward practicalarts and complaints about too much theory,each MFA student has a considerableamount of freedom in designing hisgraduate education MFA students knowthey will get a lot of theory here, andwhether they want to sculpt or go into ar¬chitecture. it’s a good program because it’sundirected and broad "The thrust of theMFA education, instead of problem-solving' like the CAD program, is problem-finding',” said SmoluchoA definite plus for the program is itsthree-to-one student-faculty ratio At largeart schools it is virtually impossible forstudents to get criticism of their work, letalone have working relationships with theirinstructorsAccording to Smith, a structure similar tothe CAD undergraduate program might beeffectively imposed on the MFA programBecause it seems only a handful of studentsin the countrv are interested in a Universityof Chicago-type art education, ahypothetical program might train MFAstudents for a very specific "profession."such as directing large Visual Arts Centersthat are springing up on campuses acrossthe countryMapp is an ideal director for theUniversity’s Studio because he belongs to a"school” of artists who believe that apractical art education should not precludestudy in other disciplines Mapp. who taughtat Colby College in Maine and the Art In¬stitute prior to coming here in 1975, saysthat art majors at the University are moreinteresting people because of their broadeducation Students at the Art Institute, henotes, know little of art history, science,philosophy or literature, and tend to burn¬out their creative energies long beforestudents who are liberally educatedLiberal arts mav be especially importantfor artists, who ideally draw on their totalenvironment for inspiration Art schools canalienate the student from the world outsidethe studio A student at Cooper Union in NewYork City reports that despite his great lovefor art. he sometimes longs for a course inhistory or science"The good thing about Chicago ". said BobPeters, a professor at the Studio, “is we redealing with conceptual problems, too It'snot all touchy-feely over here ”Smolucho said that an art education at theUniversity of Chicago produces work whichis more eclectic than that of students at artschools. Mapp feels that the cloistered at¬mospheres of such schools deliver "product-oriented" artists whose works are self-referential; i.e , the large canvas paintedblue and titled "Dream, which I observedseveral vears ago at the Rhode IslandSchool ol Design On the wall beside thecanvas someone had scribbled, "If thispainting could talk, it wouldn’t sayanything.”Mapp said one of the greatest challengesfor the Studio faculty is removing the blockmany non-art students have against ab¬stract.

In the moment ofappreciation we live again the moment < ofthe creator’s vision). We re-enact thecreator’s act.”By these standards, contemporary artfails more often than not in the eyes of itsaudience Mihalyi Csikzentmihalyi,chairman of human development, recentlycompleted The Creative Vision, a study ofartists and the creative process Audiencesare generally contemptuous of art todaybecause they are looking for craftsmanshipand effort more then technique andaesthetics, according to Csikzentimhalyi. Itis not unusual for people to look at paintingsand say, ”My kid could do that.” Ifsomething appears effortless, he says, itnecessarily becomes valueless Fur¬thermore, we don’t know if those who doadmire and purchase contemporary art areappreciate of it from an aesthetic point ofview, or merely appreciative of a goodfinancial investmentAs it has always been, artists who do notwant to teach or take commissions have tomake a big splash in the art world in orderto support themselves And despite“Chicago art schools” and “West Coast artschools,” getting recognition in the artworld today means making it in New York“They say if you're serious you go to NewYork City,” said Smolucho* Tom Wolfewrote in his book The Painted Word:“Believe me. you can get all the tubes ofWinsor & Newton paint you want in Cin¬cinnati. but the artists keep migrating toNew York all the same You can see themsix days a week hot off the Carey airportbus, lined up in front of the real-estate officeon Broome Street , looking, of course, forthe inevitable loft...”Although it’s true New York City is thecenter of visual arts in this country’, more likely because it is the center ot artcriticism than because it is filled withpaintings, deserving attention, it canalienate the artist from his work becausewhat he creates is dictated by gallery’owners, art buyers, and the social cliquewhich dominates New York's art sceneTraditional media of art. especiallypainting and drawing, have been over¬whelmed by the development ofphotography and film as “legitimate”vehicles for visual art expression An articlein a recent issue of The New’ Yorker states“One of the unwritten laws of contemporaryphotography is that no photographer shallever publicly admit to any painterly in¬fluence ” Few photographers at this university would "agree but an apparentresult of the video and photography trend isthat the painter feels obsolete; he doesn’tknow if he’s working in a medium which isviable or important today.What will happen to the visual arts inAmerica Mapp theorizes that the rectangleand the square long ago became theprimary’, most efficient structures on whichto impose creative visual ideas. Therefore,the photograph and the television and moviescreen adhere to this historical conceptTom Wolfe proposes that art criticsmore than artists have determined andwill continue to determine the course of arthistory. Indeed, he suggests that the critic has become the artist, and imagines afuture retrospective of American art from1945-75 where enlarged quotes from artcritics Greenberg. Rosenberg and Steinbergwill be mounted beside small reproductionsof the works of Johns. Pollock and deKooningArtists will continue to make art, saidCsikzentimihalyi, because it is fun, in¬triguing and satisfying. Despite awidespread and significant disenchantmentwith the current art scene, he doesn't thinkthe 20th century has killed the visual arts Ithink if art can survive at the University ofChicago it can survive anything. TheUniversity’s visual arts programs offer nosolution "to the dilemmas of artist andaudience, but they are unusual, potentiallyvaluable combinations of practice andtheory.

This book, like hiscritical works, seems fragmented: brief,rich anecdotes of thought of no more than apage in length are apparently strungtogether as if to make-up a whole book onlyby default Barthes is quite aware of this method, however, calling it a kind of‘ patchwork.” He seems to believe that by-avoiding tight, formal sequentialargumentation, he will reach a planesomehow above, or at least outside, thenormal field of cause-and-effect literarydiscourse Although Barthes thinks ofrhetoric as an obsolete science, it takes nogreat ingenuity to see that he has thusadopted a most effective rhetorical deviceUnderlying this seemingly casualreflection lie fixed principles Barthesbelieves that language is the activity thatdifferentiates man from all other animals;consequently, he believes that all distinc¬tively human activity can be studied aslanguage. And since linguistics hasprovided methodologies for the scientificstudy of language, it follows that all humanactivity can be “ decoded” according tolinguistic rulesLanguage itself is for Barthes a naturalphenomenon which conditions humanbehavior. Man lives within language; itshapes his world, he does not actively shapeitNow these are difficult propositions, andone is hard-pressed to refute them given thestate of contemporary critical theorv A fewyears ago, Frederic Crews wrote The PoohPerplex, a satirical illustration of theacademic critical scene Crews’s book was a“ casebook” edited on the theory that thestudent must be led through various “ ap¬proaches” including Marxist. Freudian, andeven “Chicago” schools before he cansufficiently grasp the complexity of thework in question. .All this was made to looksilly enough because the work in questionwas Winnie the Pooh.Crew's target was not the trend ofpluralism itself; Crews himself is well-known as a psychological critic His targetwas critics’ simple-mindedness in carry ingout the various sytems. In effect, he wassaying that any method can be botched,even the straight “ sources and analogues”method, the last to receive attention in hisbook.But simple-mindedness is not the realproblem, as Barthes’ volume amplydemonstrates There is no longer muchdoubt that Marxist, Freudian, linguistic,yea even “Chicago" methods may be usedskillfully and intelligently to illuminateliterary works The question is not even oneof authentication: Barthes can quote aswell and as often as any critic to prove thepower of his system.The question is whether the goal ofliterary study is to develop more and morecritical systems, complex and challengingas these may be, or to study individualliterary works as unique humanachievements Barthes clearly opts for theformer goal His program does not boast aclaim ultimately to reach any truths aboutliterary works of art Rather, by“‘decoding” one text or symbol system, thecritic merely creates yet anoiher symbolsystem, a text which must then be decodedinto another system, and so on ad infinitum.Barthes illustrates this lack of ultimate goalwith a “B.C” cartoon in which the cavemanconfronts a rock engraved with themessage, “sign ahead,” only to travel further and find a second rock bearing themessage, “sign ”For Barthes this lack of goal is of realmerit. By disclaiming any such goal andrevelling instead in the very process ofdeconstructing and reconstructing texts, hebelieves he participates in the essentialhuman activityIt is indeed sad to see the ‘ Roland Bar¬thes” or “R. B ” of this third-personautobiography as a representative of“structural man ” He eats, he sleeps, he“desires,” all within the tangled web oflanguage incessantly coding anddecoding despite his own awareness of theproblem. The self-portraiture is ironic,along the lines of Henry Adams in hisEducation: the central character, theauthor himself, is knocked about by “ for¬ces” just outside his control though justwithin his comprehension.Given Barthes’ terms, there is no way toescape his dilemma But one need notsubscribe to his terms It is possible to denyBathes' basic suppositions and begin fromdifferent principles. It just might bepossible to interpret literary works bymeans of conceptions that are not only fairto the author's intentions but also generallyintelligible. Such a program would not beginfrom the premise that the distinguishingcharacteristic of literary interpretation or,indeed, the interpretation of any humanactivity) is its futility.One cannot deny that an artist bringslimitations upon himself by choosing towork in a particular medium, but it isnonetheless possible to assert that the artistis in control, that it is he who shapes thematerial, and not the other way aroundBooks of related interest recentlypublisned by the University of ChicagoPress:Four Postwar American Novelists; by-Frank D McConnell 240 p Cloth, $15 00Four Postwar American Novelistssuggests a new interpretation of the majortrends in contemporary American fictionand supports the interpretation through acareful novel-by-novel explication of thework of Saul Bellow, Norman Mailer, JohnBarth, and Thomas Pynchon Specifically,McConnell makes a strong case for viewingthese novelists as writers who share acommon concern for the possibility of alegitimate, intelligent herosim in a cohesivecommunity of individuals ”Hawthorne, Melville, and the Novel by-Richard H Brodhead 216 p Paper. $4 50Also available in cloth“In quick succession Hawthorne andMelville) produced five brilliant novelsbetween 1850 and 1852: The Scarlet Letter,The House of the Seven Gables, Moby-Dick,The Blithedale Romance, and PierreRichard Brodhead takes this unified phaseof creative endeavor as the subject of hishighlv original work the first study ofHawthorne and Melville strictly asnovelists Analyzing the five novels both asindividual achievements and as products ofthe quest for form that inspired them, theauthor argues that despite the differencesbetween the two writers, their major novelsembody a distinct mode of formalcreation ”PERFORMANCE!In the few weeks since Carol Swansonbecame Acting SG President, she hasworked to institute a clear program forstudents, rather than endless politicaldebate.

WE NEEDYOUR HELP/UTOBDEy\ jr ▼ TBAIL5MAB invitesyou to aHalloween Letters toSwanson clarifiesTo the Editor:When I chose to run for president in thisSG election, I knew that I was not requiredby the constitution to resign as vice-president, and I chose not to do so. I rejectedadding myself to SG’s long list ofresignations and decided that as long as Icould fulfill the responsibilities of myelected office (VP), I would do so. My ex¬periences this summer, as vice-presidentand acting-president, could be used by SGno matter what office 1 held, and when Iconsidered the cost of another election forVP, it did not out-weigh my electedresponsibilities and abilities, especiallysince one of the amendments offered to thestudents could eliminate the need forspending this $200. Further, when I in¬formed the assembly that I did not intend toresign, I offered to hear any suggestions orcomplaints after the meeting. None wereoffered.While money itself should not be the issuein this election. I would like to point out thatI am not alone in costing SG money. To runfor president, Kathy Weston was requiredby the constitution to resign her seat on theStudent Court, but she did not do so until itwas too late to offer her seat in this election.Regardless of the results of this election,then, the present constitution requires SG tohold another campus-wide election to fillthis vacant court seat.With this clarifications, I hope the focus ofthis election can now turn to more importantissues of SG.Carol SwansonSYLTo the Editor:Is The Maroon trying to make a record formisquotations-' In the October 14 issue I amreferred to as the candidate of the “YSL.”No such group exists; I am the SGpresidential candidate of the SpartacusYouth League (SYL). Your reporter statesthat I promise “to neglect any services SGmay provide because they don't meananything until the administration isabolished.' ” This interpretation of theSYL’s position may reflect your writer’sbiases, but it is not what I said and it is notan accurate representation of ourviewpoint The point is that the SYL’sprogram is concerned not with the in¬tricacies of the Lascivious Costume Ball butwith the real social issues, such as the fightfor school integration and for labor blackdefense to stop racist violence in Chicago,the struggle against the Bakke decision andfor open admissions, and the perspective ofreplacing the capitalist-owned andoperated UC administration and board oftrustees with student teacher/workercontrol of the university.David KelloggSYLElection correctionTo the Editor:The Elections and Rules Committee ofStudent Government feels compelled torespond to several inaccuracies whichappeared in the Friday, October 14 editionof The Maroon, and which affect the up¬coming Student Government electionsThere is no amendment among thereferenda questions which would give theDean of Students veto power overrecognition of student organizations. Suchan amendment was considered and defeatedby the Assembly.Contrary to the suggestion of the article,under the current Constitution, a newelection will be required regardless of whowins the Presidential election. Theresignations of Kathy Weston from theCourt, David Altschuler from a SocialService Administration seat, ArthurDiamond from a Humanities Division seat,and .James Hodge from a Social SciencesDivision seat were all received too late toenable the Committee to give notice of theirexistence and fill them at this election.Furthermore, this problem was carefullyconsidered by the Elections and RulesCommittee and there was serious quest ion the Editoras to whether the rules of procedure providea method whereby Carol Swanson couldhave resigned the Vice-Presidency in such amanner so that a second election could havebeen avoided.Finally, it should be pointed out that thereis an amendment on the ballot which wouldallow the Assembly to fill vacancies in thefuture, except those that occur in the officeof President, which would continue to befilled by the student body. This amendment,which was adopted without dissent by theAssembly, would, if passed, obviate theneed for any further elections.We hope that this letter has clarifiedseveral points and corrected several falseimpressions, and will therefore allow thestudent body to reach its decision in a moreinformed manner.Mark Handel, Acting ChairpersonElections and Rules Committee,For the CommitteeRestore SG credibilityTo the Editor:The S.G Presidential campaign hasbrought up a very important and familiarquestion. What role should S.G play in theUniversity. Among S.G s most successfulprograms are the S.G Housing Service, theFinance Committee (formerly CORSO) andthe Activities Committee (formerly theSpeaker’s Committee). But S.G ’sachievements have been few.It is clear that S G is not representing thestudents, nor is it providing the studentswith a useful function For the most partS.G. is a powerless body and, for thisreason, it is not taken seriously by manyThis is the most crucial issue of the cam¬paign. We need a candidate who will,through perseverence, devotion to thestudents, and leadership, bring back S.G.’scredibility S.G must be an organizationwhich acts as a vehicle for the expression ofstudent ideas, the voicing of student con¬cerns, and, most important, the expositionof student needs.Bliss’s tactic is to get candidates for asmany positions as possible on its slate at allcosts. Because the candidates have had tobe persuaded to run, many of them are notcommitted to actual work in S.G. Con¬sequently, at the last two S.G meetings wecould not get a quorum The Bliss part}candidates have not built their platform onany issues of concern to themselves or tostudents, with the result that S.G. is rapidlybecoming even more meaningless. S.G hasbeen stagnating because of a lack otleadership and direction.Kathy Weston, former S.G. secretary andex-court member, has avoided the politicalmanuvering that so often leaves candidatestied up with obligations and political debtsonce elected. Since she has remained freefrom the influences of special interestgroups she will make her own decisions andbe responsible only to herself and theelectorate Thus she will be able to turn S.Ginto something other than an exclusive clubMs Weston has committed herself to theleadership of concrete projects whosemerits will be self-evident and rejects theselfserving sale and propaganda peddling towhich S.G now seems so prone Actionsspeak louder than newsletters Ms. Westonbelieves in student involvement, butrealizes that S.G. cannot be rebuilt simplywith pleas for participation. She will takeS.G. to the students, by heading a visibleadministration; by keeping office hours, byinvolving herself in the committee work andby bringing the issues of the students to theassembly. Once S.G meetings become aworthwhile venture rather than a chore.Quorums will be easily attained becausethere will be reason to comeToday and Wednesday students will befaced with a choice the outcome of whichwill shape the future of the StudentAssembly. More than any ting we need aPresident who will provide leadership of theentire Student Association. More thananyone else Kathy Weston will satisfy thisneed Please vote.Lauren M.
