Minority groups at LHU discussed in the Hall of Flags By Amy Barner and Melissa Kauffman StaffReporters Minorities al Lock Haven University are being discriminated against, according to panel members in a discussion lasl week. Jennell Dixon, Kym Zionts, Robert Baker, Eric Otiende, Deborah Kreidler, LInetle Dunbar, and Diane Young were Ihe panel members discussing 'Minority Groups Al LHU' in Ihe Hall ol Flags. Robinson Hall University students, faculty, and townspeople asked questions trying to pinpoint Ihe problems minority students are having, and tried lo come up with some solutions. Baker said that he 'would like to see something done to give others a tasle of other cultures.' 'The greatest disease is ignorance.' said Otiende during the discussion. Otiende said he feH there should be a longer orientation period for international students geered toward everyday life in the U.S. Also, foreign students in the audience described problems Ihey had adjusting to the American way of life. 'Everything is geared to American students,' one foreign student said. Amola Jhaveri, an international student, said that they didn't know about 'things like using phones, how to open bank accounts, what kind of clothes to wear, and explaination of University credits.' Another topic discussed was the recant fights between black and white students. A questions asked by a member of the audience was 'Were they (Ihe fights) really racial?' and 'Are they going lo be a serious problem in Ihe future?' One black international student spoke about being called racial names. Many of the students sakl that Ihey fell that the problem has to do with integration. One point that was brought up during the discussion was that very few white students attend the yearly black festival. Richard S. West, coordinator of Human Relations and Minority Affairs, suggested that a workshop ba put together where students would be exposed to different cultures. Alter discussing the various problems on campus, one student said. 'Ignorance is the fact. How do we deal wMh H?* One lownsperson said that a change was needed in Ihe entire community but should be started in th* University first, where more of the problems exist. 'My wife and I are believers in John Lennon's 'Imagine,' h* sakJ. It was deckled thai a panel discusskm would not solve the problems and mor* positive action should be taken. After the discussion.

Dear Editor, Ever since a cold day back in my youth when I saw Yale steal Princeton's mascot, 1 looked forward lo my own jovial days in college. This dream ended upon entering Lock Haven University. Besides the prohabilionist atmosphere that exists on campus, I've held my tongue, until now, on several points. Simply because I \m In North Hall does nol mean that t am a garbage throwing pig as suggested in an earlier 'Letter to Ihe Editor. Al 7 p.m. on a Friday night, 1 am aggravated that 1 must tum my stereo down to a barely audible level or risk being evicted from my residence. And now I find that a fellow student is burning mad at the inconsideration of some students who participated in a harmless snowball fight last week. Let us all keep in mind that grades and studying contribute to a build-up of tensions during the week, and Ihe weekend is Ihe time for most students to bk}w off a little steam. Secondly, let's remember this is America. A little fun or loud music should not result in evictions, expulsions, or arrests. If students had wanted an atmosphere like the one we are being forced to live in, we could have all signed . up for a four year stay in a Tibetan moneslary. Let's all keep cool heads and nol lei our emotions or our imaginations run away with us. Sincerely Mark J. D'Agostino Professor responds to student's letter Dear Editor, I am writing this letter in response to Ricard T. Fisher's letter of Nov. 21. I have never been challenged by such stimulating and thought provoking questions. Not only did Mr. Fisher display his depth of thinking, but also his ability lo critk:ally analyze all facets of a football program. Comparing Lock Haven University with Lock Haven High School and Penn State University showed great insight. After all, the programs are so similar. Next time Mr. Fisher contemplates 'challenging' the Eagle Eye readers with his questions, I hope he will reconsider. Most ol us would prefer to evaluate more relevant questions. For instance, is the coaching staff Ihe problem with our football program? Does LHU have the same monies and resources as the PSAC schools? Is winning the only measurement of success? What is the role of intercollegiate athletics within Ihe academic institution? I'll bet even you and your athletic-minded friends had the answers to your questions. What do you know about the less obvious? Sincerely, Rose Ann Neff Happy Thanksgiving!

Women hoopers place 3rd at Dutch Country Classic By Bili Alexander Co-Sports Editor Although the men's basketball team defeated Salem College 83-73 on Sunday, to even their record at 1-1. Head Coach Kurt Kanaskie was not pleased with his team's performance. 'Sundays game was by far the worst game we have played in our two years here,' said Kanaskie.

Eric Hearn and Dean Kriebel added 14. while Junior Price had 12 points. Dave Myers lead the visiting Tigers with 15 points, while teammates Antoine Morris and Bobby Hill added 11 and 10 points respectively. Friday night, the Bald Eagles visited Shepard College and came home with a 86-83 loss. 'We were up by three points at halftime and got a little erratic and lost the lead,' Kanaskie said. 'We had a shot to tie the game, but it was blocked and we lost by Ihree. They are a very good team and we had an opportunity to win. If we would have played real well, we could have beaten them.' Charney and Kriebel lead the Eagle scoring with 18 points each. Null and Sean Lucas each added 12 points and Hearn had 10. Terry Connelly lead Shepard with 20 points, while Jason Paar and Bobby Boyd added 12 points. The next game for the men is tonight at home at 8 p.m. against Susquehanna.

Barrett gave Head Coach Neil Turner a second champion al 158. Barrett, ranked sixteenth in the country, defeated eighteenth ranked, Paul Radomski of Navy, 5-4, for the title. Turner was very impressed with Ihe performance of some of his veterans. He said, 'Our goal going in was to win the team title. Naturally, after losing by just one-half point, we are very disappointed. But, I think we got good performances from our front line people. We needed a few more wins and places from our second line.' Karam won the 167-pound crown with a 5-2 victory over Derek Capanna of Virginia. Pecaitis reached the finals at 177 before losing an 8-3 decision lo Paul Green of Morgan Slate.

The Lady Eagtes, under Ihe leadership of first year coach Scarfo, ara 1-1 and will host Shippensburg tonight at 6 p.m. In the Millersville game, the Haven fell behind 35-21 at half time, but closed the gap only tosing by 59-56.

'They haven't contacted us at all about the lost articles,* she said. 'They said theyll get back to us.' She did say that the SCC did handle Ihe five students' immediate concerns, such as new keys, books, and meal tickets. When Nestlerode was asked about the lost personal properly, she said, 'I haven't heard a thing from the (insurance) adjuster.' 'Anything we could do, we did do lo help them,' Nestlerode said. She went on to explain that the SCC cannot interfere with the investigation into Ihe incident being done for them by the Nationwide Insurance Co. McNamara expanded on this point by saying, 'By paying them (the BCS students) instead of letting the insurance company, we would be breaking our agreement . . . and they (Nationwide) could turn around and sue us.* According lo Donaldson, the SCC collected a Ksl of items the five students lost in the fire. 'The items lost totaled almost $1350 . . we are in no position to fulfill Ihat amount lo Ihe students,' Donaldson said. Nestlerode explained that the students are going to have lo go through their parent's homeowner insurance policies, to appeal to Nationwide for compensation of their lost articles. McNamara said, 'We've done everything we can . . . the insurance company has to lake care of the rest.* The SCC though, has offered the services of their attorney to any of the students, who may feel they are nol gelling satisfactory results from their insurance companies, McNamara pointed out. A week before Ihe inckient occurred, the van had an oil change at a local garage, said Nestlerode, but declined lo name the specific one. According io her records, Ihe van's inspection was nol due until July 1987. The SCC fleet of vehicles is otherwise maintained by a student. The last time the van was used for a recorded long trip, was back in September when McNamara took it to State College, PA. He said at that lime, the van was equipped with a fire extinguisher. Nestlerode said that the fire extinguishers disappear faster than Ihey can replace them back on the vans. The BCS students did return safely to LHU on Sunday, after being picked up and housed for Ihe night by Gibbs' parents. Mice running all over McEntire residents LHU receives $50,000 in grant By Jennifer Pepper StaffReporter A state senator visited Lock Haven University lasl week to deliver a check that will help lo buy new computer equipment for Lock Haven University students and local businessmen to use.

The purpose of the program, according lo Smalley, is to provide employees of local businesses and industries with computer training sessions and the opportunity to learn more about computer applications. Smalley said that the Ben Franklin Project is to help fund businesses, in the hope that new jobs will be created in the area. Another purpose of the program. Smalley said, is to leach existing industry about stale-of-lhe-arl computers, so that they can compete in the world and national markets. Businesses which are already involved in the program include Hammermill, Champion, and Woolrich. According lo Smalley, the businesses and industries usually have their training sessions scheduled for the evening. This leaves the facilities available for student use during the day. He added that the University is getting money irom the grant to buy computer hardware and software that local businesses and industry can use. 'At the same time, there's no prohibition from our own students using il al limes thstf it's not being used in the evening,* sakf Smalley. Smalley said Ihat the courses for employees of local businesses have already begun. Some of the courses are Intro to the Business Micro Computer, Lotus 1-2-3, and Data Base Learning Programs.

Besides Ihe $50,000 presented at lasl week's ceremony, Smalley said that private industry, Ihe University, and government agencies have, either in kind or in cash, provided the other $112,000 toward the project.
