_ Students Registering for Summer Sessions Buy, Sell and Save on

Books Now!

At the beginning of this semester a new service became available to students at UPEI. This service involves the listing, on Go- pher, of used books students wish to sell. Well, we’ve had requests for used books that aren’t listed, so to meet the flip side of the demand we’re offering an additional service. If the book you want is not listed, you can, for a small cost, also make your used book needs known. Remember though, check the Gopher first. The book you want to buy may already be listed (under Student Information) and all you have to do is get in touch with the person whose name and phone number is on the listing.If you want your books listed (buyers or sellers) all you have to do is fill out the application form below (copy it or pick up more at MAPUS if you want to list more than one book), include $1.00 per book or $2.00 for three books, drop it over to MAPUS, Bernardine Hall, during office hours (8- 10:30am Mon- days, Wednesdaysand Friday’s or 8-4:00pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays). Your books will be listed on the UPEI Gopher Network under Student Information and the relevant faculty or department. Your listing will be . good until September and there will be students looking to buy and sell used books for the two. summer sessions and for Fall 95. Since we will not be taking applica- tions during May, June, July and August, REGISTER NOW! This is a service for all students with proceeds going toward the MAPUS scholarship fund.

Theatre P.E.I. Presents Acclaimed Play on Sexual Harassment at

Duffy Amphitheatre:

Some of the funniest scenes in the musical Anne of Green Gables centre on the school- teacher’s flirtations with the prettiest girl in class. They get married and she gets preg- nant, providing more; grist,for the humour mill. Was an older man using his position of authority to become sexually involved with a school girl? Or did the girl use the power of her feminine wiles for her own selfish ends to manipulate a man who was socially and financially well established? In these politically correct times, how long

will it be before these scenes are deemed inappropriate for family entertainment?

Itis highly unlikely that people leav- ing a performance of Anne will ever be heard discussing the subtext of sexual in- equality. Oleanna, on the other hand, is a play that has constantly provoked people to discuss, even argue, about issues of power, roles, gender and equality, as they have filed out of theatres across North America.

Oleanna was written by David Mamet in the aftermath of the most publi- cized sexual harassment case in history, the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas hearings be- fore the U.S. Senate. In response, Mamet brings sexual politics out of the lofty realms of judges’ chambers or corporate board- rooms and crashing into the lives of ordi- nary people trying to deal with the real problems of our time.

The play, set on a university cam- pus, contains only two characters, a mid- dle-aged professor and a female student. The stage is set in the professor’s office where, depending on one’s point of view, an act of sexual harassment may or may not occur. When the student files a complaint to the faculty committee against the professor, he is in danger of losing his job, his home and his family.

The two meet again in his office in an attempt to resolve the case by them- selves. His efforts to explain his actions to her are met by a woman imbued with anew- found sense of power. The scene escalates into a tense, emotionally violent encounter with a shocking climax.

Oleanna is presented by Theatre Prince Edward Island, and directed by Ron Irving, Theatre P.E.I.’s artistic direc- tor. Two highly regarded Island perform- ers, Rob MacLean and Nancy McLure, star in the production. Mr. MacLean, who plays the professor, is a grduate of the National Theatre School and has worked in theatre for the past ten years. He was recently appointed Associate Artistic Director of Theatre PEI.

Ms. McLure, who plays the student, has worked in the theatre for the past four- teen years. She isa founding member of Off Stage Theatre Company, and is most well-known for her performances in its hit satire Annekenstein.

Oleanna will play nightly at the Duffy Amphitheatre from Tuesday March 28 through Friday March 31. Tickets are $8 for students, $10 for seniors and $12 for adults, available at UPEI Bookstore, Sam The Record Man, or at the door.
