Division causes smaller turnout at monthly event

the first Wednesday of every month, University of Kansas students go to the Hawk's Nest on the first floor of the Kansas Union to compete for a $50 prize at Student Union Activities' Open Mic Night. Well, maybe compete is too strong of a word.
The atmosphere in the dimly lit Hawk's Nest was relaxed as students sat back and listened to a few tunes performed by fellow students. A few worked on homework here and there, while two sat engulfed by their game
"I didn't even know there was a prize," said
Luis Narifo, winner of last night's prize. "I just came to practice for my band. 2 Tango."
Narinfo was one of five performers to play in front of the 20 spectators.
According to Nariño, this was a much smaller Open Mic Night than last semester, when the music was combined with poetry

we thought it needed its own night," she said.
"Separating them gives the poets more of their own spotlight."
Ray Hodgson, Topeka senior, has been to multiple Open Mic Nights and liked the separation of music and poetry.
"Some people would come only for the music and didn't pay attention to the poetry," he said.
Laura Fleming, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, freshman, disagreed. She liked the mix because more people came, and there was a better assortment of talent.
"There was more variety when they were combined," she said. "Tonight was just guys with guitars."
Thalhammer said she thought two nights were better for the performers because there would now be two prizes given out.
"Before the performers had to decide between poetry or music, and there was only one prize," she said. "Now they don't have to decide."
The first Open Mic Night was held in Spring 2002 and became a series last semester. The future is uncertain, Thalhammer said, because the next coordinator will make the decision.
