December 6, 1991 — LION’'SEYE — Local Artist Exhibits Paintings As Part of Tim Mark Fund Series by Frances Callahan You don’t have to know anything about art to enjoy the exhibit of paintings by Virginia Ann Holt that are on display until December 20 in the Library at Penn State Delaware County Campus during regular Library hours. If you don’t know what you like, this is an opportunity to find out. Some works are for sale. Participating artists in this series have pledged a percentage of their sales to benefit the Tim Mark Endowment Fund, which supports the selection of work by an emerging artist to tour and show at Penn State campuses for one year. The Holt exhibit is one of a series of shows of . individual Valley artists. The first of the series, and the inspiration for the continuing series, was the Tim Mark exhibit. Tim, a emerging Delaware Penn State graduate, was suffering from melanoma. When his experimental treatment was publicized, the publicity included a photograph of one of his paintings. This publicity, an opening in Penn State’s exhibit schedule, and Tim’s own enthusiasm led to the Tim Mark exhibit, the Time Mark Endowment Fund, and, ultimately, to the continuing series of exhibits. The series is coordinated by Dr. Jane Cooper, Professor of Biology, who first got involved in the art world because she wanted to buy a Tim Mark painting. Little did she know what impact it would have on her life. She saw things that needed to be done to get an exhibit series going, and she did them with characteristic efficiency. Her fascination with art and artists would not let her walk away. Those who attend the Holt exhibit may find the same fascination. Drama Club Forms By Robin Longaker As Shakespeare’s King Lear once put it, “Nothing will come of nothing.” That is precisely what motivated the formation of a drama club on campus. According to Bill Buddle, the chief organizer of the new club, “If you're not into sports or academics, there isn’t much else to do.” Something had to be done. . . and it finally has been. The first meeting of the new Drama Club was held on Thursday, November 7, in the Lion’s Den. The group hopes to deal with “hot” topics in their performances, such as date rape, racism, and environmental issues. The club’s advisor is Bohdan Senkow, the theatre arts professor at Delco. The drama club is looking for new members interested in acting, directing, costuming, and writing plays. It offers an opportunity for actors, writers, dancers, singers, and technicians to get some exposure and express themselves. No prior acting experience is necessary. Everyone is welcome to attend. How to Breeze Thru Finals By Robin Longaker Yes, the holidays are quickly approaching. For college students, however, there is a major roadblock to hurdle before the festivities can begin. You guessed it. . . FINAL EXAMS! Ugh! The mere mention of the dreaded phrase causes many students to cringe and grimace in pain. It automatically brings to mind oh wer 4 fom our Jpensati.. JESS YoU DONT MIND GETTING WET... =) NG BR \ Ak +A =) Jf intense study sessions that last until the wee hours of the morning, fueled by endless cups of coffee and that all to familiar supply of Domino’s pizza. Admit it. We, as Penn State students, are notorious for our ability to procrastinate. More often than not, we wait until the last possible moment to open the books and cram for exams, crossing our fingers and hoping for the best. Continued on Page 5 by A Abdhac, Sil = You BETTER !
