Art students decorate Days Inn
By STEPHANIE-LEA SMITH
Staff Writer
Having 108 more hotel rooms for
football season isn’t the only ben
efit the University will reap from
the new Days Inn at Finley and
Broad streets.
The $6 million hotel, completed
the first week in April, was deco
rated by five University interior
design students. Also, the artwork
displayed in the hotel is the com
missioned work of six other art stu
dents.
Professors John Huff and Wey-
lynda Wright of the art department
chose five senior design students to
undertake the project as an inde
pendent study program.
The concept was the innovative
idea of Paula Smith, art consultant
for the project and a 1972 graduate
of the University’s art department.
She said she wanted to showcase

the art department and serve the
community.
‘This is an exciting project for
everyone concerned," she said.
Each of the students — Michael
Turner, Joye Graham, Greta Ce-
derberg, Jo An Morris and Hyde
Floyd — received five University
credit hours for their efforts.
“It was a good opportunity to de
sign a project and see the installa
tion of it,” Turner said.
Wright said, “The students
weren’t graded, but if they were
they would have recieved an A.”
The student designers were in
charge of everything in the interior
including the color scheme and fur
niture that would best compliment
the traditional and historic ar
chitectural style of the hotel.
“Originally the students were
only going to design the public
areas, but we were so impressed
that we gave them everything to
do,” Smith said.
Commissioned artists include
Cecelia Denton-Hinton, a doctoral
candidate in art criticism, who cre
ated two sets of paintings for the
lobby. Tonie Carfucci, a graduate
student in fabric design, created a
fabric weaving of a “view of earth”
that will hang in the library.
Mindy Dungan, a senior photo
design major, and Ming Chuang, a
senior graphic design major, de
signed prints also for the library.
Phill Scroggs, a senior photo design
major, will feature photographs of
Athens architecture. Marianne
Weinberg-Benson, a graduate stu
dent in ceramics, created ceramic
covered jars that will be displayed
in the lobby.

Ali Jones, SEA director of educa
tion, said SEA has applied for of
fice space for the last tour years but
has been denied every vear. She
said SEA has worked with the Uni
versity on projects, such as the
campus environmental audit and
recycling efforts, and deserves to
have a permanent office.
The guidelines used to deter
mine which organizations receive
offices include the number of mem
bers, percent of student members,
frequency and size of the organiza
tion’s projects and the intended use
of the office space, said Candice
Sherman, administrative spe
cialist for Student Affairs.
Porter said offices are usually
assigned to organizations whose
activities benefit the entire
campus.
Nine campus organizations cur
rently occupy 11 offices in the Tate
Center. The Student Association
and University Union each occupy
two offices. Another office, for
merly occupied by The Barker, is
being used for storage, Porter said.
Sherman said only one or two or
ganizations that formally applied
for offices last spring are now
without offices. But several other

‘The administration
needs to take a look at
which groups make
best use of the space’
Tim Cohen
Tate Center employee
campus groups have expressed in
terest in obtaining office space in
the Tate Center since the assign
ments were made last year.
Some organizations were re
ferred to various schools or colleges
that might have space available,
she said.
Tom Cohen, a junior English
mqjor and employee at the Tate
Center, said SEA is one of the
hardest-working campus organiza
tions he’s seen. SEA makes better
use of its office space than other or
ganizations which have permanent
offices, he said.
‘They gave them an office for
Earth Day and right after it they’re
telling them to leave.
‘The administration needs to
take a look at which groups really
need and will make best use of the
space," he said.
Professors and students remember massacre
By ANNE-MARIE FANGUY
Staff Writer
Almost one year after hun
dreds of Chinese students were
killed during a pro-democracy
demonstration in Tiananmen
Square, University students and
faculty commemorated the event
at a symposium Friday.
“China: Looking Backward to
Move Forward" was sponsored by
the China Council and the Center
for Asian Studies.
The symposium was designed
to shed light on events in Chinese
history leading up to the Beijing
massacre.
“China today in fact is at an
ideological crossroad,” said Tu
Wei-Ming, a professor of Chinese
history at Harvard University.
Tu, a native of Kun ming in
mainland China, taught at the
University of Beijing. He stressed
the need for intellectuals in
China to pool their resources to
become recognized as one voice.
‘The Chinese need to tap both
their resources and those of the
West," he said.
Tu said problems arise because
“(Chinese) tradition has already
been destroyed, though not nec
essarily to tne point of no return;
and the West is something un
known."
Michael Hunt, a professor of
Chinese history at the University
of North Carolina, said the
Chinese have always placed
great importance on land acquisi
tion.
Their leaders, he said, often
fought to control vast territories.
"China’s greatness is somehow
related to the maintenance of
that territory,” he said.
He also said China is more sen
sitive than most countries to for
eign interference, which plays a
part in its politics today.
One Chinese student at
tending the symposium said it
may take as long as Five years
after Deng Xiaoping leaves office,
but she hopes someone will rise
to power —perhaps from the pre
sent leaders — to reform the gov
ernment.
“Maybe the people will be
waiting, just like in Romania,”
she said.
The student requested ano
nymity because she plans to re
turn to China and fears
government retaliation.
Thomas Ganschow, a professor
of history at the University, mod
erated the event.
He said many countries have
severed or at least cut back eco
nomic ties with China until the
political situation becomes more
stable.
However, Ganschow said the
Chinese government isn’t going
to yield to demands for democ
racy.
‘They’re very afraid of any
demonstrations,” he said.
“I think it’s very important to
support the Voice of America and
television from Hong Kong,” he
said.
“Whatever we can do to get
straight news and information
into China is important."
