Cafe fails to repeat past revenue success
By Shabab Siddiqui
Daily Texan Staff
Although the Cactus Cafe saw
a surge in attendance and profit in
February, the venue was unable
to repeat its success in March.
The on-campus music venue
lost nearly $7,000 last month, ac-
cording to documents obtained
by The Daily Texan through the
Texas Public Information Act. The
cafe lost $250 in the same month
last year.
Most of the cafes revenue
came from the $25,000 it collect-
ed through admissions at the
door and about $11,660 through
alcohol sales. While the reve-
nue was enough to cover the
cost of paying performers, they
fell short of covering labor costs
and other expenses.
The cafe, which won its ninth
consecutive award for Best
Acoustic Venue at the South
By Southwest music festival in
March, has a profit model dif-
ferent from most other alco-
hol-serving venues, which de-
rive two-thirds of their revenue
from alcohol sales, according to
a 2002 study by market research
firm Mintel. The Cactus receives

In an era when the media industry is in flux, the UT
School of Journalism is also changing and has been
without a permanent director since 2008. The group of
candidates for the schools new director has narrowed
to two after one stepped down.
The two remaining candidates are Linda Steiner,
professor and director of research and doctoral stud-
ies at the University of Maryland, and Glenn Frankel,
a former Washington Post reporter and editor and vis-

iting professor at Stanford University.
Steiner could not be reached as of press time, and
Frankel declined to comment.

The third contender, Robert Rivard, editor of the
San Antonio Express-News, stepped out of the run-
ning this weekend. Rivard said the search commit-
tee invited him to interview and that the idea of mov-
ing out of a newsroom and into a university where he
could take a different approach to facing the challeng-
es of journalism initially intrigued him.
It is evident, however, that the journalism faculty
is deeply divided on the leadership question, with the
professionals and academics disagreeing on wheth-
er the next director should come from a newsroom or
within academia, Rivard said in a letter quoted by the
San Antonio Express-News. Until that question is re-
solved, it will be hard for anyone to win the kind of af-
firmation the new director will need to be successful.
Rivard said the newspaper and media industry is
still in a profound state of change and that he wished
to remain with the Express-News for the transition.
I kind of consider myself an editor through that
era of transition, he said. We havent completely
emerged from one era into the next yet, and Im com-
mitted to seeing it through.
Because of the transition, journalism schools also
need to undergo changes to produce the kind of jour-
nalists that will be needed in the future, Rivard said.
The real challenge is that schools are going to have
to do that in a time when they can rely less and less
on the Texas Legislature to provide the necessary
funding, he said. Governor [Rick] Perry wants to
cut funding by 5 percent. That is a deep cut at a time
when the school is already trying to fulfill its mission
with insufficient funds.

by, will voluntarily step down from his position
when the dean of the College of Communication,
Roderick Hart, chooses a candidate. Hart said he is
hoping to make a decision in the next two weeks
