It is important to define yourself, said Constance Lundberg, a teacher at the BYU Law School. As speaker at last weeks Womens Resource lecture, Lundberg pointed out that lawyers not only write laws but they also enforce them. Lawyers are in the business of making laws in the government. Most laws are written by people working in the government. As a lawyer, you are a law maker as well as enforcer, she said. Noting that a law degree can be beneficial in many careers, Lundberg said, Once you obtain a law degree, you can use it to go in many directions. Lundberg went on to explain that a good deal of what lawyers do is talk to people. Lawyers perceive problems in a business sense; we then look at the legal issues of the 9 x AA'AA x Z'S 'AAAA''' V' ,, fA's' , ' x , '"y '"''a '' ' s' ' "ZZy" 9 t 'zy' y Really listening is a pretty rare talent in this society BYU law Color Country Weekend anchorman Mark Wade, left, and the shows producer Kent Johnson prepare for a recent news segment.

Color Country comes home n Fletcher Matson and Doug Christensen by problems. Finally we get enough facts to transfer this problem into a legal case, said Lundberg. In talking to people, Lundberg indicated that a lawyer spends a large amount of time asking questions, listening and learning about clients. Lundberg said, You get to know a lot of things about other people. You need to learn to listen, to hear what is really wrong. Really listening is a pretty rare talent in this society. She said, Lawyers come up with a strategy for solving problems. The most common way people think of solving problems is through the court system. The least effective, most common and most expensive way to solve problems is going to court. Never go to court if it isnt necessary. Lundberg gave her views concerning women as lawyers when she said, I wouldnt say women are any more competent that men as lawyers. Men tend to better at being hard nosed than women, while women are better listeners than men. An English major, Lundberg encouraged students going into any profession to learn to write. Writing is the single most important skill you can learn in college, she said. Southern Utah State College produces a weekly regional television news and interview program, but that doesnt mean anyone on campus actually watches it. Its not that people dont want to see it, but the only place its broadcast is in St. George. That, however, will soon change. Color Country Weekend is a student production featuring alternative news and interviews for the southern Utah region. Right now it is broadcast only over channel 55 in St. Georg;e. But soon it will be seen in Cedar City via Cedar City Cable Television. Technicians from the cable company have been laying cable connecting the college production facilities with the companys headquarters for the past several days. Everything is lined up, said Don Godfrey, SUSC telecommunications coordinator. Were just waiting for the physical connection.

Then, not only will cable subscribers have access to Color Country Weekend, but the colleges Continuing Education Department will be able to offer credit courses to residents of the immediate area via television. Godfrey said the college and the cable company joined together in mutual association for mutual benefits," and that no money will change hands between the two. The college will benefit because its programs will be available to a wider audience, he explained, and students will gain opportunities to run the system as well as produce the programs. The cable company will benefit because the additional programming will make its service more attractive to potential customers.

Dave Taylor, acting director of student activities, Council members seemed receptive to the idea, e noted that some schools go on uniforms; which they said might cost about $200 to start and $50 a month or less, if advertising was included. some schools dont do anything more than windbreakers.
