Text Any textual data included in the document (U-WIRE) NEW YORK--- Showtime’s new series Queer as Folk will be the first on television to explore the lives of an all-gay cast of characters, complete with frank depictions of their sexuality. The show, which begins airing on Sunday, December 3, received the red carpet treatment at a recent world premiere in Manhattan that was attended by the series’ cast and crew— along with a crowd of celebrities and invited guests. “It was spectacular,” says Tony Jonas, one of the show’s executive producers. “For we folk in television, when we make a new show, it goes without fanfare. We were treated like feature film people,” he says of the premiere, which benefited the Gay Men’s Health Crisis. “It was a delight to see the young case suddenly on the runway.” Queer as Folk is already generating attention for its controversial subject matter. Showtime will present the show as a season of 22 episodes that have been adapted from the original Bristish Queer as Folk. In the UK, Queer as Folk was broadcast as a limited series on Channel 4, where it stunned audiences with its graphic sex scenes and unflinchingly honest portrayal of gay culture, quickly becoming a critical success. The US version is set in Pittsburgh and is, like its predecessor, centered on the lives of five gay men and one lesbian couple. The structure is similar to HBO’s Sex and the City, with a central character— Michael Novotny (Hal Sparks)— who narrates each episode. Showtime is in the midst of a major promotional push for a show that will elicit any number of reactions from different audiences, few of them likely to be mild. “The most dangerous thing that can happen is that it will make people think,” Jonas said. “No one has ever seen a show like this before. This is a show that will stimulate on all levels.” With more than 20 years of industry experience behind him, Jonas anticipate that Queer as Folk will redefine the standards of television sexuality for the near future, eventually paving the way for other shows to follow. “We’ve pushed the envelope. Each one of these shows does heighten the bar a little bit. I hope in 10 years from now there will be a show that makes us look tame,” he says. “It’s a show that doesn’t belong on network television. We’re on cable. “If we were on a major network there would be a greater controversy.” Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data newspaper article Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Text Any textual data included in the document Dear Editor: For many years I have read first The Weekly and then The Grizzly with great interest. Iinfrequently, I have contributed articles, but I have never felt compelled to write a Letter to the Editor...until now. The tone of many articles in the paper recently has been disconcerting to me. It appears that students struggle to find their niche on campus, be it through the Greek system, GALA, sports teams, other formal campus organizations or an independent group of friends, only to be pigeonholed into singular beliefs and attitudes. Even more unbelievable and dismaying is the particular focus of some faculty and staff who work in a liberal arts environment but have never strayed from one narrow parth of thinking. Certainly, education thrives on open discussion and debate; however, the educational value of such discourse is lost when an intellectual exchange gives way to emotional verbiage meant only to attack and not enlighten. While eating lunch in the faculty dining room (And no, we do not sit in the same seat every day) this week, I heard someone note that America has "lost its sense of community." If that is true, Ursinus is in the mainstream. Yet, I am deeply saddened to think that along with outrsense of community, that we at the College are losing a sense of who we are and what our purpose is. I am awed to think that some of what I valued most about my Ursinus education--a tolerance of others, an exposure to new ideas and experiences, an increased cultural awareness, and a thirst for more knowledge--are being missed by some of those on campus who are easily sidetracked from our educational mission by finger pointing and feelings of self-righteousness. Perhaps it is all a matter of perspective. Nearly thirteen years have passed since my graduation from Ursinus. Now, when I am with my peers at Homecoming, professional gatherings, and friendly get-togethers, it is not so important anymore to know if we were Greek or non-Greek, atheletes or non-atheltes, heterosexual or homosexual. We are united by the same diploma. We are advanced by our exchange of ideas, however diverse. We are proud of our Ursinus experience. As one graduate wrote after her fiftieth Ursinus College reunion this year: "To me it was a real joy to meet with everyone--no one trying to 'put on airs' or 'be a big shot.' Life has beautifully matured and mellowed all of us. The dross has been burned off and we all seem to have developed as God planned us to be "There were those scarely known who have endured great hardship, suffering and loss, and yet they have emerged a beautiful, wonderful people I'm proud to have been a member of the class of 1941." This is a touching reflection. I sincerly hope it will not take all of us fifty years to come to this realization.

This part was submitted to us late in publication and therefore could not be run together with the other part. We apologize for the split. Addendum to Letter to the Editor: My letter is not in anyway an attempt to pass judgement on anyone on either side of the GALA issue. I strongly disagree with what GALA believes, but I don't think that by giving them money we are condoning their beliefs. There is a distinct possibility that all of us--especially those of us in the heteorsexual population--might actually learn something (what a concept, on a college campus!?!) from the speakers and events GALA sponsors. As a future servant of the U.C.C. Church, I believe personally that it is my God-given responsibility to be as willing to listen to GALA as much as I would want them to hear me if I had an issue of concern--and speakers or events are the best way to do this (this does cost money). I don't know how God works through organizations like GALA--but I'm not so closed minded to think He can't. I pray for all of us to have tolerance and be rational here--I hope we can all come out of this as more informed human beings! For me, even though I believe homosexuality is wrong, I can't in good conscience see the good in denying GALA money--it might only serve to build bridges of suspicion or resentment, and this is not a Christian way to handle anything!
