Davies explained the greeting is part of everyday life in Nigeria, and instructed them to repeat the greeting. With pleasantries exchanged, Davies said her work- shops students "always take something back home." Today; students would take home two batik creations made using differ- ent methods. The reasons people chose to attend the workshop were as var- ied as the textiles they produced. Some were attending as a require- ment for a sociology or anthropol- ogy class. Some came because a friend invited them, and still oth- ers were art majors interested in meeting the artist and learning batiik. Batik is the process of creating patterns on cloth by applying wax which resists color when the cloth is dyed. After dying, the wax is removed, leaving behind the patterns. However, there are many ways to achieve the effects of batik without using wax. Davies introduced the class to an indigo-dyed cloth made by the Yoruba women of Nigeria called adire which translates into tie and dye. This cloth is made using a variety of resistant dye tech- niques including knotting or tying, folding, or sewing raffia onto the fabric.

On average, 585 pints of blood and blood components are transfused to patients in our area every day. Only about 4 percent of the eligible people donate. On Monday, March 29, the Blood Center will be on campus to collect blood donations from students and staff. This event is sponsored by the Student Health Counseling Center and the Molecular Biology Club, The drive will be held from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. in Union 104-106.

There will be a sign-up table set up on March 22, from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m., in Wyllie Hall across from the Library for anyone who wants to sign up. Many of us know someone, or have read about someone who has needed a blood transfusion. Without the kind- ness and generosity of strangers many loved ones would not be alive today. One hour of your time and one pint of your blood can make a difference. To be an eligible blood donor you must be 17, weight at least 110 pounds, and have no prior history of hepatitis or behaviors associated with AIDS. Please donate and help save lives.
