THE COLLEGIAN
Monday, Feb. 14,1
Construction: Traffic problems
The computer, it is hoped, will
be abk to manage the flow of
traffic more efficiently than the
timed light changes now in use.
Other construction projects in¬
clude installing new light poles,
changing single left-turn lanes to
double left-turn lanes and install¬
ing handicap ramps at the end of
Accord ing to Cal-Trans, an es¬
timated 80,000 vehicles a day
travel Shaw Avenue.
And, as Fresno and Clovis resi¬
dents are probably well aware,
traffic has gotten progressively
worse in recent years.
Actual construction on Shaw
began last June and was sched¬
uled to be completed last Novem¬
ber. But, according to Kevin
Brodie, the Cal-Trans engineer in
charge of the project, unforeseen
technical problems, design modi¬
fications and .the cold winter
weather caused massive delays.
'It's not going as scheduled,"
Brodie said.
"When designers say it takes
two days to do somethi ng, in real¬
ity it may take four."
Brodie is reticent to a give a
projected completion date, but
said he hopes the project can be
completed early this summer,
seven months or moreover sched¬
ule.
At the work site on Shaw and
Cedar, Julius Omwanghe, a Cal-
Trans inspector, said that as far as
actual performance of work is corn
cemed, the project is going along
just fine.
"We are behind schedule be¬
cause of unforeseen events. Tech-
nical-wise everything's going on
as it's supposed to be,"
Omwanghe said.

going.
"One of the things I did when I
came back was to reorganize the
curriculum so that the population
of the students taking dance would
increase," said Griffin.
The new dance club, University
Dance Theater Association
(UDTA), organized this semester
by the dance majors, has. a main
priority to popularize dance among
the student community.
- "We are trying to make the de¬
partment bigger and let people
know that there is dance in this��school," Reiss said
"This club offers to the mem¬
bers, apart from thr dance activi-^
ties, master classes in modern dance
where anybody can join and learn
how to use their body to express
themselves."
Griffin explains the importance
of dance at a university.
'It is important in terms of main¬
taining a university rather than a
technical school," she said. If we
are just going to teach people skills
then we shouldn't call it a univer¬
sity." '
