Actor Bruce A. Young, who
starred in last summer's
Shakespeare/Santa Cruz
productions of Titus Andronicus
and The Comedy of Errors, will visit
UCSC in May as Cowell College's
1989 Distinguished Minority Professional. The professional program, started in 1985 by Cowell
Provost John Lynch, has brought
artist Robert Blackburn, actor/
musician Daniel Valdez, writer
Michelle Cliff, and legislator
Michael Woo to the campus in
previous years.
Young has many years of
experience acting in theater, film,
and television. Perhaps his single
most famous role was Jackie in
Risky Business. This past year he
has appeared as Antony in Antony
and Cleopatra at Shakespeare
Repertory in Chicago and as
Herald Loomis in August Wilson's
Joe Turner's Come and Gone at
Center Stage in Baltimore. He also
starred in the film Hard Rain with
Tom Selleck and F. Murray Abraham and completed several
episodes of "L.A. Law." Young

Transportation
alternatives
In addition to being very expensive, campus parking is harder
and harder to find these days.
Furthermore, the cost of building
additional parking lots ($15,000-
$20,000 per space for a multistory
structure) is exorbitant. Aside from
the cost is the issue of whether
more campus land ought to be
covered by parking lots.
In an effort to alleviate the
parking situation, the Transportation Committee, chaired by Bob
Jorgensen, is working to provide
alternatives to single-occupant

Spring blood
drive May 12
On Friday, May 12, UCSC
and the local chapter of the
American Red Cross will coordinate a campus blood drive. The
East Field gym will be open from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. for students, staff,
and faculty to donate blood.
During the drive last November,
more than 500 campus donors
gave 401 pints of blood.
To help meet the Red Cross's
continuing need for blood, everyone who can is encouraged to
donate on May 12. Because
parking is limited, donors should
use the campus shuttle service.
On Campus is published by the
Public Information Office for the
faculty, staff, and students of UC
Santa Cruz. Material may be
submitted in writing to Jim Burns,
editor, at the Carriage House, or
mailed electronically to account pio
on Unix O.

Greens founder
to lecture May 3
Petra Kelly, one of the leading
representatives of the Green
Party in Germany, will give a
lecture at UCSC on Wednesday,
May 3. The lecture will begin at
8 p.m. at Oakes College in Room
105 and is open to the public at no
cost. Kelly, who is a UC Regents
Lecturer, will speak on "Politics of
the Environment: Or, How to Forge
an Effective Policy."
Born in West Germany, Kelly
has been a member of that
country's national parliament since
1983.  She is a founding member
of the "Greens," a fourth-party
development that has made major
advances in realigning political
power in West Germany and, in
the process, gained support in
neighboring countries as well as in
North America.  Kelly was the
Green Party chair and public
speaker from 1980-82.
Fundamentally based on an
ecological reading of both world
and society, the Greens have made
environmental studies the core of
an ambitious social and political
program aimed at rehabilitating
and maintaining the natural
environment.
Kelly attended high school in
the United States and received a
