division policies of hiring professional actors for student productions without consulting the club and using club funds to pay for those services pat goeller 76 a drama major said about casting professionals m student productions we can gain a lot from them but i think a student would also gain by playing a role this opinion was snared by other drama majors who also objected on the grounds that professionals make the student actors look less com petent the money used to hire professionals is another cause of controversy marcus dilliard 77 m&c treasurer said payment is to be a cooperative affair between the university administration and m&c however m&c will pay for the services of michael del medico a new york actor as macbeth m the spring production macbeth john durishin 76 m&c president opposes using m&c funds for this purpose if a professional actor is to be hired his pay should come out of academic funds he said also though the hiring of professionals is supposed to be approved by the executive board of m&c durishin said he was not contacted about the hiring of del medico marshall kaufman assistant professor of english also said he was not notified of the intention to hire del medico according to john pearson head of the division of speech and dramatics the purpose is to give students exposure to people who really know what they are doing the most effective way of studying drama is through an apprenticeship program m which the students work closely with the actors he said kaufman said we're trying to get as much involvement of students with professionals as possible the professionals should have qualities m which the faculty is not strong m order to help fill m the gaps m the department he said also i feel that they should be available
