The Greatest Tragedy
By Vicki Crenshaw
Beyond our sa.nity
Is it our a.pa.thy
That ca.n now cause
For a.ll our laws
The greatest tragedy?
Is divine legacy

There is no end
We must be friendsMy friends, when will you see?
There is no enemy
That' s greater than
Not finding man
His state of unity .
I ' s gone a.nd we must find
Our singleness of mind
That we can ploy
And not destroy
The glory of mankind .

Production offers memorable experiences
By Shannon B rad ley
Staff WrltEH"
When auditioning for " Evita",
Mountain View's fall production,
some knew the story line, some
didn 't but no one, not even
director Rod W ilson knew what
it would become.
When the performing rights
of " Evita" were released, Rod
was the first to get them but in
the race to perform the play
irst, was beaten by the Dallas
Repretory Th ater.
After waiting five days after
the auditons, the cast list was
posted and for those chosen,
the fir t of two long months of
rehearsals started the next
nigh .
At the first rehearsal , music
director Jean Brown, started the
singing and for some it was the
first time to hear the music that
won the operetta seven Grammys in 1980 including best play.
We could hear why.
After a week, the five principals came in and sang with
tne chorus through both acts.
Finally we heard ,. th in outline
of 'what the play wou ld sound
like. Without the accompaniment of an orchestra, many purchased the soundtrack giving a
better idea of what practice
would lead to. Still no one
realized what caliber of musical
this could be ... only Rod , who
sat in the room and watched
and listened knew.
The stage was now sturdy
enough to practice on so the
comfort of the small choir room
was left behind . The first stage
reh earsal w as inti m idating
because the acoustics of the
Performance Hall magnified our
pro ided
ne vo ices an
pected echoes. The adjustment
was made quickly.
Some members were released earlier than others with
larger parts. Still they didn't
leave, but stayed and watched
the production grow before their
eyes.
After performing all walked to
the parking lot in the safety of
large noisy groups. Especially
the lacfiee, u Rod had stressed the importance of being
careful in the parking lots late at
night.
Posters and t-shirts arrived.
The t-shirts were worn by cast
members around the school to
promote the show and posters
were g iven to take to
hometowns and display in store
windows . " Not on yo ur
bedroom walls." warned Rod .
RehearSals got longer lasting
untH 11 :00 p.m. which at the
time seemed late.
At the end of October the
mueic wa invading 1laep. Now
that the orchestra had began
rehearsing with the cast, there
were new complications with
cuing the steps from performer
to music to to musician
Rehearsals now lasted close
to midnight and sometimes
longer. Production was slightly
ahead of schedule inducing the
cast to 'slack ott.' Each scene
had to be perfected. It seemed
to take forever. That whole
week the cast was frustrated
and had lost motivation and
energy.
Everything almost came to a
halt on Halloween night It as
the end of the wee and all w re
tired of spending four nights a
wee at rehearsals Opening
night was only eight rehearsals
awa and Rod had nearly lost
all hope in the cast. A raid
things wouldn 't be ready for
opening night, he threw his
papers in the air and angrily told
the cast the lack o concentration and the goof;ng o
backstage had to stop.With th
cast on the s age Rod le saying nothing .
At that point, Jean told the
story behind Rod 's " Evita "
She spoke of how for n ar1 v
years Rod had dream d of doing the operetta. A alizing o
much of a dream th1 wa to
Rod and how 1t must b
deteriorating before his eyes,
the cast was released for thre
days to th ink and rest.
The ne t Monday th re was
a different attitude among the
cast. They performed with new
power and strength .
W ith arms raised , the voices
stopped , the last echo d ied off
the walls and then ilence
f th 1r
wa1 in for th re t1
instructors. A strong six-handed
applause answered them .
W ith three rehearsals left,
cast members stayed after
rehearsals to help build and
paint the set. A death mask. a
plaster'cast of Deanna's face,
was made and painted
realistically for the corpse of
Eva Peron. With a fake body
and wig, the corpse looked 80
real it made the cut members
nervous standing next to it in
the darkness of the backstage
shadows.
Opening night week, set problems kept the cast and crew
working even later into the
night. Now working against the
clock, weeks of exhausting activity, little sleep and hard work
was renected by the cast 's sluggish steps and strain etched on
their faces.
On the night before opening
night, the theater department
was chaos. The set crew had
worked through the night before
and on into that afternoon consuming coffee constantly s
they worked on the most
tedious part, the lights.

Stegall aims for independence
By Rex Boykin
Staff Writer
"I've never thought of myself
as a feminist or a woman's libber," said Linda Stegall , vice
president of student instruction
at Mountain View College. "I
just try to do my job and do it the
best way I can . I don't think sex
particularly enters into the
turnout. "
Apparently what Stegall sa s
1s true . In the past 9 years with
the Dallas Community College
District, 6 years as Distnct
Director of Occupational Career
Programs and the last 3 years
as vice pres1dent at MVC ,
Stegall has been able to avoid
much of the pre1udice
associated with women in adm1n istrat1ve roles.
" This district has always
been very committed to women
in administration and upward
mobility of women ," said
Stegall. " It's one of the few colleges in the state and in the
country as far as that is concerned that has the track record
that this district does of women
in administrative roles . There
are three women presidents
currently. To have three out of
the seven women presidents
has to show a certain commitment on the part of top admin i strati on . mean in g the
chancellor, to move women into administrative roles. That is
one reason I chose to come to
this district in the first place
because I didn 't feel that there
would be that prejudice. I
haven't seen it."
As VP of instruction , Stegall
1s responsible for the division
chairs, who supervise the faculty , all of the scheduling ,
budgeting and planning involved with instructions, as well as
the supervision of the continuing education program
"It's basically he total instruct ion al program." sa10
Stegall " All of the facul ; parttima and full-time , the d1vis1on
chal!s, anything dealing w1 instruction . That's what I m
re pons1ble for"
Stegall 1s marned and has
two children. a daughter. 23,
presently attending
orth
Texas State University and a
son, 21, attending St phen F
Austin Her husband owns hts
own business and 1s a
distributor o foreign auto-parts
As a w1e. mother. and c ,., r
woman , Stegall has a v ry active chedule. " l'v learned to
establish what I consider to b
ry immy priorities. This Job 1
portant to me and having fun is
very important to me "
A recent milestone and credit
to her career and personal life,
Stegall has completed her
dissertation and is awaiting to
have her doctorate conferred in
higher education administration, Dec 21 , of his ear

with a jun10r community coll
which differ greatly from a state

··that student programs peopte

activities and things that would
be stimulating; lob of wen. Vou
spend money to bring IPIMen

then nobody shows up."
" We have to realize what

By Marty Blum
Staff Writer
Almost one half of Mountain
View College 's students enrolled tor Fall 1985 attend classes
during the evenings. Although
they receive the same quality of
education as the day students,
they don't receive the same
amount of extracurricular activities and the night students
seem to like it that way.
Night students are offered the
same courses as the day
students plus a few extras such
as real estate and postal service
adminis ration . Mo t of the
night students do not have time
for clubs and extra activities.
Dave Shea has two children
and after he works days at Alton
Packaging in Fort Worth he
takes a management class at
MVC and needs to get home as
soon as possible . He doesn 't
feel like night school students
need the extra activities that are
available in the day.
Debbie Shores, student programs specialist, has set up
club meetings and programs at
night but has had little or no
response rom the students.
Shores would like to see night
students get more involved and
plans on scheduling evening
speakers on suicide, grief, and
drugs in the spring. She wants
to have an outdoor adventure
program and possibly some
club meetings, depending on
student participation
David Wickham, chairman of
the communications and
technology division feets his
evening staff is excellent due to
requiring the same minimum
teaching requirements for all
teachers at MVC. A teacher
must have in the area they are
teaching a master's degree or
12 hours beyond a bachelor's
degree.
In Fine Arts, chairman Ann
Cunningham said she has more
parttimers in the day than t
night. Cunn ing ham said
''
•
Neither
part time or full timet
teachers are better as they all
meet the same teaching requirements and are chosen
from a large group of applicants. However, sometimes a
part-time teacher can't be
around to help students after
school, but this depends on the
individual teacher. Parttimers
are very easy to hire and ire
therefore the teachers working

The Buddy Program was

of their countries.
At registration , students who
were interested 1n becoming
buddies whether th y spoke
English as a first language or
did not identified. They were
paired and then contacted
about who their buddy was. The
American students ware expected to contact their buddy
first.
''We hoped out of the pairing
of the in te ~national and
American students, that there
would be a cross cultural exchange," said Debra Brazzel,
Buddy Coordinator.
Each buddy was given a list
of questions about the customs
and courtesies, the peopte,
lifestyles. and the·r nation to be
discussed durnng the th
semester. They were to be used as conversation start rs.
