On Wednesday, February 3rd, Scarlette Gaudin, a student at Lock Haven University was one of six panelists who spoke to raise awareness of the disaster, silenced the packed Hall of Flags from the moment she began speaking. "My grandmother passed away within this earthquake," said Goudin who fought to hold back tears while giving the last presentation of the night, "My aunt is sleeping in the streets because her apartment collapsed. It's hard to hear things like that." Gaudin struggled to contact much of her family for several days after the earthquake, "My cousin has no school, no money, and her leg is broken.

The meeting had a about questioning Brent Frederick as president because of the letter of his impeachment that was introduced in December. Frederick states, "In the constitution, it states the line of succession, so therefore I am President. I became President before the Bill of Impeachment was introduced." As president, Frederick says he would like to make the SCC meetings bimonthly and also to have those that miss so many meetings without notice prior removed from their position. As for the committees of last semester, he stated that the committees would stay the same as they were previously. Some students are hopeful about the events that will unfold this semester for the SCC. Newly inaugurated Speaker Andrew Brake states "It's going to be interesting with the given turmoil going on. It puts me in an interesting position. I look forward to a good semester and can do the will of the students." Other students are left feeling very concerned about the future. Veteran SCC member Ryan Hemm comments, "I'm worried about where the Senate is going. The executives are still having problems and the advisers are not helping students or their rights."

BY -P-Ji ■ \\\\\m a team to be a medical, dental, and outreach group to the native people in and around the town of Nebaj this past January. Founded in 1984, HELPS extends a hand of help to people with the hope that they will become self-sufficient and also give themselves and their children a better life and future. The organization focuses on 4 areas * of development: healthcare, development, economic development, and environmental protection. All of their programs center around any combination of these four areas. HELPS focus is mainly on the development of Guatemala. While several teams travel to various parts of the country about every 2 weeks, the Nebaj team was the first of 2010. This particular team was aimed at providing medical care and assisting in some community development. The team met in Guatemala City on Jan. 8, and headed up into Nebaj on Jan. 9. The team base is an abandoned military hospital that is guarded 24/7 by JHBbI Ll-k-k-k-k-k-k-B km 9 Br Ba* el '"' mm B BBBF' BmBl LV_fl ■^BJI'-'"-''--w»<4t! -^ll| ,»*t.

Even though the location is considered tropical, Guatemala is still located north of the removals, etc. Most- of the surgeries are mild in nature, as the staffis not equipped with the tools to complete major surgeries, nor are they present to follow up with the patients. Occasionally, the staff has the honor to welcome a new life into the world. Clinics provide the people with various help in specific areas of need. The dental team is a two-fold job. Half of the team stayed at the hospital base, while the other half went out into the countryside to set up outreach clinics. Dentists perform extraction, fillings, and on outreach, children are taught how to brush their teeth and given toothbrushes and toothpaste. The third aspect of the Nebaj team is the community development: a.k.a. the "stoving" team. They are looked at as probably the most crucial part of equator, so currently, it the HELPS team. is January.

It's no wonder the ONIL is receiving such notice. It decreases the amount of smoke in the house by 99%, reduces wood consumption by 70%, and increases the life-expectancy of the woman of the house by 20 years. Each family, who has registered for a stove in the village that is being visited by the team is given 2 stoves, one indoor for (cooking and worn at all times and shoulders need to be covered. It is culturally unacceptable to wear shorts or tank tops. Also, the water in Nebaj is like poison to Americans. It is so contaminated that one drop can instigate 12 hours of vomiting and diarrhea. The unfortunate who encounter this illness are forced to have an IV to make sure they are kept hydrated. After 12 hours, the sickness has usually run its course, but it can take up to 4 months until the G.I. tract is back to normal. Pharmacist on the trip, Jim Koppen said, "It's only 12 hours, but buddy, it's a LONG 12 hours. People want to die." Because of the risk of such as nasty bug, most opt to not shower every day, if at all for the week. The language barrier is also great. HELPS provides translators to ease this difficulty. Around 15 students from the American high City accompany the team, while other adult translators participate as well. Once in Nebaj, the team meets up with village guides for outreach and stoving, because the people who are out further into the mountains speak tribal such as languages and Ischial. Quiche While it may not seem as though a team is capable of pulling off a trip like this, it always seems to come together. The 2010 Nebaj team performed 90 surgeries, saw at least 2000 people in various dental and medical clinics, and installed 101 stoves (including one at a local school) over the course of the 5 days. It sounds impossible, but was actually accomplished. The team then leaves Nebaj behind, and starts plans for the next year. Any students wishing to participate in a team like this is always welcomed.

February 11, 2010 www.lhueagleye.com LHU summ er sessions o er LHU Haiti Awareness From, Haiti, A1 campus and online courses Jill Mitchley jmitchle@lhup.edu LOCK HAVEN, Pa. Lock Haven University has announced that registration is now open for LHU summer courses. LHU is offering undergraduate courses on both the main and Clearfield campuses and online, with offerings suitable for new college students, continuing students matriculated at LHU and other institutions, returning adults and graduate students. LHU is providing three summer sessions. Summer Session 1 will run from May 18 to June 19, 2009 and Summer Session 2 will run from June 22 to July 24, 2009. In addition, the university will offer a 10-week session from May 18 to July 24, 2009. Interim Associate Dean Cathi Gatewood pointed out that many of the courses are suitable for teachers seeking continuing education credit. She noted other benefits of summer study, including "an opportunity for students to focus intensely on a particularly difficult subject or subject of interest they may otherwise not have a chance to take." She added, "Some students may want to take general education'courses to raise their gradepoint averages." Gatewood emphasized that earning credits during the summer may also help students to graduate on time. Registrar Jill Mitchley added. "Online courses enable students to study from home, and they can organize their studies around theii summer jobs." Both Gatewood and Mitchlej urged interested students to visit the regis trar's website and tc register online as soon as possible, as classes often fill up quickly.

"It's going to rain in the next few months, and landslides are likely." Loretta Dr. Dickson, the third panelist, provided an inPowerPoint depth revealing some of the geological reasons for the disaster. "In this area, a major earthquake happens about every 50 years," said Dickson, "However, that doesn't mean that it could have been predicted." She went on to discuss the structural damage to the buildings in Haiti by disbefore-andplaying after pictures of the wreckage. "Most buildings wouldn't collapse like that because of the rebar built into the concrete. Buildings in Haiti don't have that," said Dickson. Professor Walt Eisenhauer, chair of Physician the program, Assistant spoke about his experience leading a servicelearning clinical team in Haiti. His goal was to "give an idea of how dangerous the country was before the earthquake and relate that to its current condition. "We shouldn't have been there. It wasn't safe." On his first day in Haiti, Eisenhauer said, "Someone had been found robbing a house. They dragged them out, shot them execution-style, and left the body to rot in the street. They do this to dissuade crime because there is no police force." Marilyne Louis, a Physician Assistant at Infirmary Glennon who is a native of Haiti, gave her own unique take on healthcare issues in the country. "Haiti was already in short supply of medical equipment," Louis said, "Not only will A3 physical injuries be a problem, but so N will psychological g such as issues depression, anxi- �» ety, and post-trau- § matic stress disorder. "I will remember the day I heard about the earthquake for the rest of my life," said Louis, who still has family in Haiti, "The way Americans think about 9-11, I will think about January, 12th 2010."

A6 Persp ectives Challenges change us Sarah Cox Perspectives Editor scoxf« lhup.edu Recently, I applied to become a Resident Assistant for the upcoming semester. I was very unsure of my decision when it was first made. I am a very strong willed and independent individual but at the same time I have zero confidence in myself. I do not like change either, but I was ready for a new obstacle to overcome. I took a lot of time to just consider my options and where I stood in terms of taking on this position. I tried to imagine situations and how I would deal with them and in the end I finally started believing that in taking the chance and going out for this position, I would be forcing myself to go outside of my comfort zone. I feel this is something everyone has to do ever themselves. It is human nature to find something that works for us in terms of I like order and to follow a plan. The unexpected is also welcomed but I have to prepare myself well before coming to a conclusion. I am a big planner to say the least. I knew that I have to be ready for any situation and that I would have to think on my toes. I will face difficulties almost everyday whether with my residents or how to balance the constant responsibilities. I felt that I was ready to do something more with my time. Though this would mean giving up a lot of free time, I found an abundance of interest in the unknown. After much thought and coaching I decided to fill out my forms and begin work on my homework assignment that if I made it through the first stage of the process I would have to present in front of a group of strangers. There were right away two situations that I did not do good with, being vulnerable and presenting. I spent countless hours on the collage and I put every ounce of honesty and creativity into it I had, and in the end I was surprised by the result. I made something that was truthful to the person I am. I was able to look at the collage and see myself as an individual with many different sides and emotions. Once the collage was finished I began preparing myself for the group interview process. I would be forced to work with a group of people who I knew nothing about. Not only did I have to work with them, but I had to be myself and be outgoing. Once I get to know someone it is easy for me to be outgoing and fun of energy, but I have to let my guard down. We were divided into groups of six or seven and we had to present out collages, perform an array of group activities and answer numerous questions. We were throw through the directions so fast that no one really had time to react and surprisingly without that extra time I was able to just be outgoing with have to slowly put my guard down. The group I was placed in worked well very together and we had such a great time. It was all around a great experience that lead to meet many new people, that I could truly see myself being friends with. No matter what the outcome is in this situation, I feel that I have changed for the better. I have learned to take pride in the things I do. I need to except my failures, mistakes and my imperfections and be myself. Be the happy individual that I am. I need to stop worrying about the little factors that I face and just learn to let things role off of my back. I know that the work I did throughout this process was to the best of my ability. I put my heart and soul into every aspect of it and I know that at the end the decision being made is in my best interest. I gave up my comfort zone and I put myself out their for people to judge, but no matter what happened I felt good about my answers. I was being myself, which after 19 years, I learned is the best thing to be. I need to reach out to more people and let them see me for me. I want to be judged, whether for the good or for the bad. I want no regrets. I do not want to be thinking about this situation ten years from now and realize there was more I could have done. I want to take the steps to becoming my own person. Though I was nervous, unsure, and completely frustrated at points, all in all the LHU students were awakened Wednesday morning at 5:45 a.m. by the LHU Text Alert which stated that campus did not have any delays or cancellations due to the inclement weather - as opposed to normal instances, when the Text Alert is only used to inform students that the campus would, in fact, be delayed or closed. This began a long day of confusion and frustration for most students. Many students, especially those who are commuters, found this to be a big problem considering the roads were unsuitable for travel. This couldn't be the best decision for students' safety, as seen by other state schools cancelling classes; Keystone Central School District even cancelled school, whose students and faculty have to deal with the same conditions as the LHU community. "I know that the campus usually doesn't cancel classes unless [they] can't keep ahead of the snow, but if the surrounding schools are ' 9 J . . .. rush felt amazing.

"The hip is a lot deeper in the body than the knee or shoulder, and it's a lot tighter," Geist said. "The hip has a ball and socket. It's a little more difficult to get an instrument in there.

After talking with the surgeon, Shimada and Geist focused on developing a mechanical tracking linkage using rotational encoders. The encoders record subtle movements of instruments as they move inside the body. The simulation interprets the movements as they correspond to the patient's anatomy. Geist and Shimada conducted tests of the system with subjects who are not surgeons. They assigned the test groups tasks such as navigating the instruments from one part of the hip bone on a model to another part, using the computer-aided arthroscopy system as a guide. The time needed to complete the procedure was cut by 38 percent when using the system, Geist said. Additional testing would have to be conducted before the system could be marketed. Training tool In addition to the possibility of perfecting arthroscopic surgery, Geist and Shimada believe the system could be used as a training tool. The team continues to work on improving the design of the medical device. One idea is to add additional guidance for the surgeon such as suggesting an optimal path to the hip joint. "The goal is not to replace the surgeon but to optimize the procedure," Geist said. LEASE FOR FflLl 2010 4 BEDROOM, 2 BATH AND 2 BEDROOM, 1 BATH UNITS AVAILABLE!

After going 8-for-8 during the first half, Bentley hit just two more shots during the game's final 20 minutes. The guard's limited production in the second half was attributed to what coach Coquese Washington described as the "freshman wall." Washington said she sensed Bentley and fellow freshman Nikki Greene both lacked energy during the later part of the game. The third-year coach said she's noticed freshmen players tend to struggle at this point in the season because the longer collegiate season and more physical play starts taking a toll on their bodies.

I think of my interests and hobbies and relate them to my last three years. The two things that really get me going are playing music and sports. While multiple weekly gigs around town have my music fix quenched, I haven't been to a 'major' LHU sporting event in a year and a half. Nowadays, we live in a world, and university, full of law suits and corruption. It's sad that at this point in life we have to expect these things, but it seems as if that is becoming reality. So taking those instances out of the equation, one of the most disappointing things about my college life is that I was robbed of the enjoy- ment of college sports. First off, I would like to congratulate the successful sports teams at LHU who have done well over my time here. Hats off to the multi-championed softball team on their success as well as many other programs we have here. I love soccer and have enjoyed going to a handful of games, as well as baseball and field hockey, but I am a minority for having attended these sporting events. The reality is; there are two sports which create an atmosphere and draw student attention. Think of prime time sports television and what do you have? Football and basketball. These two sports draw mass student support and create revenue for the whole department. Unfortunately, these programs may as well have not existed during my time here. While the basbe any worse.

On any given night, the audience will hear cover songs by everyone from Elvis Costello to Tom Petty to the Clash. They also bring a number of original songs; Conti's reciting of poetry over LaLota's simple instrumental interludes rounds out the show with a beat poetry type of feel.

After a semester-long hiatus, the series is back with more promise than before. Professor Marjorie Maddox-Hafer of the English department, one ofthe minds behind the series, credits its return to its popularity: "Because of the strong impact of the series on students, faculty, and the surrounding coma second munity, PASSHE Diversity and Social Equity grant conditionally was awarded for the fall 2011 2009—spring semesters." The UpWrite Reading Series, which emphasizes diversity from a number of different angles, was awarded a PASSHE Diversity and Social Equity grant for the fall 2007—spring 2009 semesters. The series committee hosted fourteen acclaimed novelists, playwrights, short story and script writ- (i mmW ers, memoirists, poets, and directors for a total of fifteen events. Authors gave evening and film readings screenings, and visited English, History, Spanish, Education, and Theatre classes. Each semester, writers also met with such student groups as the Black Student Union, the Asian-American Association, Lyrically and Speaking, Fulbright Scholar candidates. Maddox-Hafer also said, "Regrettably, due to major adjustments in the October 2009 adopted state budget, the Chancellor's Office now is unable to fund the UpWrite Part II proposal. We are grateful that individual authors were very generous in coming for reduced fees so that we could continue the two series." This spring, the series will be a combination of UpWrite and Pennsylvania Authors' reading series. Among the writers visiting are Rei Kirk Berroa, Nesset, and Jeffrey Frazier. Each author also will visit classes and meet with student groups, including Spanish majors, stuwriters, dent and International Students. Rei Berroa's reading will be in conjunction with the Introduction to Literature Common Text Activities, sponsored by the English This Department. year's common text is Vietnam veteran Tim O'Brien's book The Things They Carried.
