Improv Continued from Page 3 then just when you think they (the other members) didn’t get it, someone picks up the baton and carries it on.” Dan Grimm, a member of Freudian Slip and junior theater major, said the group has grown closer through the many hours the team has spent together, such as a time they were in a car dri ving back from performing at Fish Camp. “The other day, a group of us were in the car together coming back from Fish Camp, and Emily randomly started speaking in a hill billy accent,” Grimm said. “Suddenly I became ‘Billy Bob,’ and everyone started taking on parts like ‘Ma’ and ‘Pa,’ and we went for half an hour in the car improvising as these white trash characters.” Besides the need to have basic intelligence and funny nature, Grimm said acting ability is important for the improv group, He said the majority of the Freudian Slip cast has acting expe rience from high school or college. “We do scene work," Grimm said. “If two people on stage are playing high school slackers, we have to really, sell and convince the audience. Acting does this.” One area of difficulty many members of Freudian Slip deal with is trying not to be too funny. Alexander said the actors must resist the temptation to steal the spotlight during performances. “In a show, you are working with others, not against them,” he said. “You can’t pull the spotlight. Sometimes you could say something that is rip-roar funny but even though you might get laughs, a lot of faith (with the other members) would be lost.” Trying to be funny is not as funny as just being true to real life circumstances, Alexander said. “(The scenes) are a lot more smooth than people think,” he said. “It’s not a whole lot of chaos when you get started. It makes it harder if you think too intensely about it.” Members of the Freudian Slip cast said joking is definite ly not the way to get a laugh. "Anyone can do a joke,” Grimm said.

"I’d like for all students to know that we’re here and we care.” The mentors have targeted the New Student Conferences to increase awareness of their ser vice and will have a table at MSC Open House. The World Wide Web page will soon have a complete listing of Mentors and a resource manual with places for troubled students to find help. “I think word is getting out that we exist, but the service isn’t being used nearly as much as we’ve liked,” Milburn said. Most mentors feel they are accomplishing something impor tant to students and themselves, Bassichis said.
