Mike Quinn cools off on a recent summer-like day with ice cream Photo by Suzie Hunstad Drinking law affects Augustana Dave Baer staff writer A birthday present many young South Dakotans look for-ward to on their 18th birthday is the right to drink low-point beer. Those who were able to open that package between July 1, 1983, and July 1, 1984, got their gifts taken away from them. Even though they will get the gift returned on their next birth-day, those who lost it seem to re-sent the way the state handled the implementation of the new drinking law. On July 1, HB1026 became law and the drinking age for 3.2 beer in South Dakota was raised to 19. A similar law raising the drinking age for all alcoholic beverages from 18 to 19 in Wisconsin also went into effect this year. In Wisconsin those who had already turned 18 were still able to drink because a grandfather clause was attached to the bill. South Dakota's law did not have a similar provision. Jim Barnes said that he was disappointed by the legislature's handling of the bill. "They were telling us at one point you were legal, but now you're not anymore because of your age. It wouldn't have bothered me as much if it (drink-ing age) had been 19 when I was 18." Barnes, a Conde native, is an architectural engineering major at Augustana College. He was able to drink for four and a half months before the law changed. State Representative Jean Eidy, R-Sioux Falls, was one of the sponsors of HB1026. She said the purpose of the bill was to keep alcohol out of the high schools because there is so much abuse with the 18-year-olds drinking beer. "I'm really tough on drink-ing. I've seen all the problems it causes and if yoti hold off a year you've eliminated one problem, perhaps," she said. State Representative Marion Wofford, also a Sioux Falls Republican, was an opponent of the bill to raise the drinking age to 19. "I really don't think one year is going to make that much dif-ference," she said. "If I thought it would make a lot of difference I would have voted for it." Wofford who worked with the chemically dependent and was executive director of a treatment facility said that the law is really an attempt to be concerned about drinking and driving and that the law is mostly a statement rather than being of great value. "I don't think it will have the effect that most people think it will have. I think there are other things that need to be done with alcohol education." The new drinking age has also hurt low-point bars. Margie Dominy, manager of Clyde's Garage in Sioux Falls, said that the bar has lost one-third of its business since the drinking age was raised to 19. Another Sioux Falls bar, Dakota Territory, closed after the law was changed. It was reorganized and reopened as Mingles Fundrinkery, a 21-year-old bar. The state legislature must now respond to the federal law which hopes to establish 21 as a nation-wide drinking age. The law passed by Congress during the summer will withhold part of the highway funds due each state that does not have a 21-year-old drinking age beginn-ing in 1986. An Augustana freshman who asked that his name not be used said that many college freshmen are not mature enough to drink. "I think some are, but the ma-jority aren't because alcohol seems a way out for them as it was in high school. I think it's a whole different type of living that they have to get used to with dif-ferent stresses."

"Exploring Human Creativity" has been selected as the theme for the 1985 Interim. Thirteen courses have been specifically developed to focus on various aspects of the theme. These theme courses will offer students a unique oportunity to become involved in an aspect of human creativity. Every discipline involves creativity and many of the courses will bring this perspective to light. Special events will also be held on campus during January to support the theme of creativity. Dr. Helen Fischer, a noted an-thropologist, will be on the Augustana campus January 10 to speak at convocation. Her talk will be directed at creativity and how it relates to us and our com-munity here at Augustana. Professor D. Stanley Eitzen of the Sociology Department at Colorado State University will give a presentation at convoca-tion on January 21. His talk is entitled "The Superbowl." Other events on campus that will emphasize creativity include a musical performance, the movie "The Turning Point," a French film "The Wild Child," and the classic "Singing in the Rain." Gary Reed and the Augustana Theater Department will present the play "Old Times." After one of the performances, a discussion will be held, allowing the au-dience the opportunity to talk with the director, actors, and stage hands. Other events are still being planned by the Interim Committee. Dr. Richard Bowman, In-terim Coordinator, hopes that students will get involved in the theme-related events on campus. Dawn Thurn staff writer "I've dreamt about it for many years. In my mind, I have rearranged it," said Lloyd Frick, manager of the newly remodeled Augustana Bookstore. Two students, Rich Krueger and Lisa Moes, took steps last March and April to improve and renovate the store. Their actions stemmed from an ASA investiga-tion on book costs and student complaints concerning the bookstore. Krueger and Moes traveled to USD in Vermillion and SDSU in Brookings to look at their bookstores to get ideas on how Augustana's bookstore could be improved. Krueger met with Frick last April, and along with other bookstore staff members, they decided what they would like and what changes should be made. Frick contacted the architects after final approval was given and the bookstore staff reworked the plans to fit their idea of what He has two expectations that he hopes the students will ex-perience from the theme: "One is that they will become aware of the creative dimension of several aspects of life, and another is that they will become aware of their own creativity." Students are also able to select from a number of different courses offered by departments. These courses are also special because opportunities exist dur-ing Interim that are not usually available during the regular academic year. Often different teaching methods are used and students are able to explore subjects in which they may have little knowledge or experience. In selecting a course, students should explore and "try something new!" suggests Bowman. Students may also do an in-dependent study or individual they thought the image of the store should be. Frick was pleas-ed that the students had input in the plans, and he appreciated their support. One of the main goals of the remodeling was to give the bookstore a better image. Both Frick and Krueger think that has been accomplished. Krueger especially likes the color change from yellow to beige and the lighted signs. "It's less institu-tional," said Krueger. Other renovations included redoing the traffic patterns by changing the directions of some of the shelves, moving the gift items to one place, and breaking up the rows of clothing with shelves. Krueger thought these changes "broke up the monotony" and "warmed up" the store. Both Krueger and Frick believe that the new electronic cash registers will speed up pur-chases. "Once we get used to the new equipment," claims Frick, "the service will be faster." project. Students can talk to their advisor about a proposed project. Another program is January Term Abroad.
