Tiya and Gwendolyn had this to say about their experience working on the project: We arrived at 4:30 p.m. before the concert and were briefed about our parts. The film crew somehow had gotten lost and didnt arrive in time to film before the concert so we had to wait until after the concert. After a long wait, the filming finally began about 2:30 a.m. after about 1 0 minutes of rehearsal. We were paid $25 with no residuals. It was a lot of fun to stand in front of a camera and mime words while getting paid for it. It was good experience to work with professional people on a professional level. We met members of Air Supply and had lots of fun with them they treated us like REAL PEOPLE! The video has been distributed nationally and has been seen on numerous music video programs. Indian students provide entertainment One of the most successful and enjoyable things that the Indian students participated in Fall Quarter were school performances for the community. The performance that seems to be the most outstanding was the one held at the Parowan Elementary School. Tony Robbins, president of the Club, served as the emcee for the group. The first number was song by Bernice Begay. She sang the song "My Dog, Inter-Trib- al Bingo Is His Name, in Navajo and then she taught the song to the children. The children appeared to think that was a lot of fun which seemed to set the stage for the res': of the performance. Noreen Thompson danced the Ute Feather Dance and was followed by Betty Alexander singing an Apache song and a beautiful Navajo lullaby. The talent didnt stop there. Evangeline Beletso performed sign language to the song, Go My Son, and Jackie Thompson explained and described the traditional costumes worn by Navajo Women. The grand finale was a dance, the Rabbit, led by Noreen and Kim Thompson. The girls picked partners, even teachers, while Edmund Austin and Fred Robbins accompanied them with their singing and drumming. BSU sponsors dance; floats in Cedar parades On Oct. 29, 1983, the Black Student Union sponsored a Halloween dance in the fieldhouse after the womens volleyball game. The dance started at 9:00 p.m. and the Disc Jockey was D.J. Swann, a member of the BSU. This was a costume dance and some of the costumes were really wild. The dance was a success and the Black Student Union was able to raise a little over $200. This money will be used to help pay for the convocation speech of Martin Luther King, III. The Black Student Union had the privilege and opportunity to participate the SUSC Homecoming parade for the first time this year. The theme for the in parade was Timeless Impressions, and to follow that theme the BSU designed a float to represent different time periods in Black History. Stuart Riley, President of the BSU chose a quote from Martin Luther King, Jr., which was placed on the back of the float and read, Unless we learn to live together as brothers, we shall surely die apart as fools. Cedar City Chamber of Commerce and downtown merchants then asked the Black Student Union to participate in the Cedar City Christmas parade on Dec. 3, 1983. A few changes were made on the float in order to fit in with the Christmas theme and the result was the BSU float entitled Tis the Season for Unity. The BSU was paid a very high compliment from the announcers at the parade who were heard saying, "SUSC should be proud to have a club such as the BSU on its campus. The SUSC Club will be holding its annual Indian Week Spring Quarter, April Activities that are being planned are workshops on Indian Business, Indian Education, Talent Development, and Indian Law. Other items planned are entertainment night with a special guest, traditional dress-u- p day, noon activities at the Student Center, and two nights of competition Speaker for the convocation during Indian Week will be Carl n Indian artist and lecturer or hdian Gorman, a culture.
