FILM INTERNSHIPS OFFERED

disciplines such as music, film, video, and performance, is currently 
looking for high school and college students who are interested in

experience required, though experience is a plus. Interns will assist 
in the production of a large-scale feature-length film that SRLS is set 
to begin producing sometime before the end of the year (exact dates of 
production are not yet set). This project is funded in part by an Arts 
Build Communities Grant from the Tennessee Arts Commission and Allied 
Arts of Greater Chattanooga. Some interns will assist in the building 
of sets, others will perform light production duties (such as grip, 
camera assistant, etc.).
    We are looking to fill approximately 10-15 internship positions for 
High School students, and perhaps 10 positions for college students. 
Interviews of applicants will begin shortly. If you know a student who

STUDENT DEVELOPMENT OFFERS STD PRESENTATION
Wednesday, Nov. 10:
Bugs in the Bedroom.  Educational lecture, sponsored by Student 
Development Student Programs Advisory Committee and other campus 
organizations, about STDs, sexual responsibility and dating 
relationships.  8 p.m. in UTC Fine Arts Center Auditorium.
     In this program, Shawn and Gwenn use activities and demonstrations 
to demystify the condom, welcoming it into the bedroom. They also 
describe the negative feelings people have about condoms and debunk 
popular excuses for not using them ("they're not big enough," "I can't 
feel anything," and "I'm not at risk").
     Shawn and Gwenn keep the information funny and straightforward. 
Students will leave the program with the tools necessary to keep "bugs" 
out of their bedrooms. When it comes to safer sex and STD prevention, a 
little good information can go a long way toward saving lives.
     Speakers: Shawn Decker, a hemophiliac, acquired the HIV virus 
through tainted blood products at age 7. Much like Ryan White, Shawn 
was expelled by his school in rural Virginia when his status became 
known. He grew up surrounded by fear and ignorance. He grew up 
believing he would die of AIDS-related causes before he could drive.
    Shawn became a nationally recognized AIDS activist, infusing a great 
sense of humor with prevention and awareness issues. He wrote columns 
for national magazines about life with HIV. He was invited to the White 
House. He became a spokesman for HIV infected youth.
     And as the years passed, the possibility of a normal life became 
less remote, and Shawn began confronting some of the same issues that 
"regular" teenage men confront. But things were always a little more 
complicated. His peers began dating and experimenting with sex, and 
Shawn worried if a kiss at the end of a date could pass along the virus.
     Gwenn Barringer answered that question. The two met through their 
AIDS activist activities. She fell in love with him in spite of the 
virus, and in spite of his love for professional wrestling.
