Large audiences filled the venues used to hold SPB-sponsored concerts of various artists. A few of the artists that performed at UH include The Presidents, K.D. Lang, Bad Mutha Goose and Bros. Grimm, and Oingo Boingo.Pftoro by Mark Lacy. ^^^fter a year of absence, the Spring Fair was brought to UH by the Campus-Wide Activities Com- mitte (CWA) of the Student Program Board (SPB). With it's appearance came a new name. The CWA Committee of SPB changed the name of the Spring Fair to "Spring Arts and Music Festival." "Students shouldn't get the idea that our event is just for students involved in fine arts. The Residence Halls hosted a kickoff party with reggae bands and the SPB concert committee had more live music line up," said Mark Lacy. The Spring Arts and Music Festival was promoted city-wide. "UH is strong in the arts and there are people here who would like to make Houstonians aware of that," Lacy said. Events from many departments UH is strong in the arts; there are people who would like to make the city aware of that. were coordinated into a calendar that was distributed and advertised in The Daily Cougar. Urich Taylor, chairman of the Visual and Performing Arts Committee of SPB, said, "We are involved in planning, funding and promoting of the events, as well as coordinating others into the schedule." Of the more than 40 events on the month- long schedule, the VPA committee helped fund and organize 23 and other SPB Committees are responsible for an additional eight. The 28-day Spring Arts and Music Festival showcased events from student productions and in drama to student musical performances. VPA members believed that the concept of the Spring Arts and Music Festival was one that was overdue, hence the theme "It's About Time." -Jonathan Imperial STUDENT PROGRAM BOARD Freya Lotton, Tom Hoang, Urich Taylor, David Daniell; (row 2) Veena Sardana, Mai Spickleneier, Lily Pleitez, Linda Spicklemeier, Ashley Argo, Gayle Spencer; Rob Valashinas, Alex Abraham, Khabot AH.
