Team members thought they had

The University is searching
within the Geological Studies De-
partment for a new chair who can
help the program retain its under-
graduate majors.
Prof. Henry Pollack, the current
chair, decided last April not to con-
tinue as chair after his three-year
term expires in June. A term renewal
would interfere with his plans for a
two-term research sabbatical starting
this fall.
"It's a rewarding but a time con-
suming job," Pollack said. "I would
like to pass the baton to another able
and talented faculty member. That's
the principle of a rotating chair."
The 12-member LSA Executive
Committee, as mandated by the
University's Board of Regents, rec-
ommended possible candidates for
the position to LSA Dean Edie
Goldenberg last month.
Goldenberg, a member of the Ex-
ecutive Committee, said she will of-
fer the position to someone by the
beginning of next term.
"I'm looking for someone who is
a strong scholar who can be an effec-
tive leader in the department and take
a close look at the undergraduate and
graduate education for the next
decade," Goldenberg said.
The new chair will be involved in
reversing the steady decline of under-
graduate students pursuing geology
majors. Possibilities include revis-
ing the curriculum, methods of in-
struction, teaching labs, and number
of courses available.
The new chair will also decide
how to relieve the department's
space crunch after the Biology De-
partment completes its move into
the old Chemistry Building. The ex-
pansion within the C.C. Little
Building, where the Geology De-
partment is based, could include addi-
tional teaching labs and computing
spaces.
Goldenberg wrote letters to the
department's faculty in September,
asking for written nominations.
The committee member who read
the nomination letters with Golden-
berg presented a summary of the 1
ters to the rest of the committee 1S
month. The whole committee then
discussed the nominations and pre-
sented their recommendations to
Goldenberg.
"I have not yet met with a single
member of the faculty, but I am pro-
ceeding to invite people to talk to
me about being the new chair,"
Goldenberg said.
The Dean's office will send*
formal letter to the regents announc-
ing the selection of a new chair. The
regents will vote on the selection.

Prof. Abigail Stewart, an active
member of the first generation of
Women's Studies advocates, has de-
voted her life to continuing the
search for female equality in the
classroom. She now has another
challenge ahead of her with her ap-
pointment as director of the Univer-
sity's Women's Studies Program.
Stewart, a Personality Psychol-
ogy and Women's Studies professor,
accepted the four-year term as Direc-
tor of the Program in Women's
Studies last June. She filled the po-
sition in September.
Stewart's position was created
following the recommendations of a
two-year Women's Studies Depart-
ment evaluation. The main objective
of the job is to implement three
goals in the Women's Studies Pro-
gram that evolved out of that evalua-
tion.
"The first goal is to bring re-
sources into the program to make it
possible for it to serve as an intellec-
tual community," Stewart said. "The
second is to ensure that the program
always has full participation of di-
verse, heterogeneous women, and the
third is to relieve volunteer adminis-
trative burdens that faculty and stu-
dents have had to take on in the
past."
Her new directorship allows
Stewart to continue teaching psy-
chology, although she will not be
teaching any Women's Studies
classes.
Stewart tried to create a Women's
Studies program at B.U. but regrets
that a viable program never evolved.
"I find it exciting and worthwhile
to finally have the chance to work at
an institution that has fantastic ps.
chology and Women's Studies pro-
grams," Stewart said. "I devote half
of my time to each subject."
"I anticipate the challenges that
this job offers me," Stewart said,
"and Iam eager to help the Women's
Studies Program fulfill its poten-
tial."

Gerald Cleaver, another member
of Tracey Science, said he felt there
was "an atmosphere of disdain" for
the band when they played at the U-
Club.
"Tracey Science agreed to play at
the U-Club for a month, under the
stipulation that if lots of people
came to our shows we could play
more," Cleaver said. Although the
band drew a very large crowd,
mainly students of color, Cleaver
said he feels the band never got "any
respect" from the management at the
U-Club.
Ann Lukens, Food Service Su-
pervisor at the U-Club, said the deci-
sion to not renew Tracey Science's
contract was "basically a program-

such as "Keep your rosaries off our

confrontation.
Michael Cooper, a student at

said, "This is very successful," he
said. "It's a big defeat for them.

The election of John Engler as
governer has increased determination

"It's just going to give us more

"I hope he's a reasonable person.
