Wednesday, November 16, 2005 Volume 62 Issue 10 lood drive tiarvey wins meets goal seat on Lock Haven City Council Sarah Wojcik Staff Reporter Leona Livingston Staff Reporter The university met its goal for the Annua! Fall Blood Drive on Nov. 8, sponsored by the Resident Hall Association. Of the 178 people who took part in the drive, 138 pints of blood were successfully donated. Wendy Walsh, Resident Hall Director, stated that this was one of the most difficult drives. "There was a glitch with the online appointment system," said Walsh. The system reported that all available appointments were taken and anyone who had gone online to make an appointment was told there was no room. In reality, only 56 spots out of 135 were filled. Walsh's worries about not meeting the goal were eased when Dave Senior and Josh Bickford went around to the different halls and buildings on campus, asking people to come down and donate. "Those two really helped," said Walsh. The ideal number of donors for a blood drive is around 40 people higher than the donation goal. Many who come to donate blood turn out to be ineligible. According to Walsh, people have to feel well and not have a fever or feelings of sluggishness. Many students around this time feel lazy and don't know that they are ill, but rather think it is grades and everyday pressures of academics. Two of the factors that may stop a person from donating are if the person weighs less than 110 pounds or has gotten a tattoo within the last year. There are systems being put in place that can take the donation from one person and double the amount of red blood cells in the sample. This will help get more blood out to the people who need it. According to the Red Cross' website, virtually all of us will face a time of great vulnerability in which we will need blood, and that time is all too often unexpected. Recipients of donated blood range from cancer patients and people getting surgery to victims of natural disasters like Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The whole process of giving blood takes 20 minutes. The person will walk in, register and fill out a confidential report that insures theirability to donate at that time. Then an iron test is done by pricking the finger of the person. See Drive.

See Honors, A3 Faculty offers students help with scheduling Erin Hippie Guest Writer As scary as midterms, as stressful as finals, and as annoying as 8 o'clock classes, scheduling for the next semester can be a painful experience for Lock Haven students. Several students tend to encounter some sort of problem while scheduling classes. Those problems could be that the class is not available because it is filled, it is not available because the prerequisite was not taken, or the class starts at an unimaginably early hour. "I hate how you can have your whole schedule planned out and keep track ofthe classes everyday and at the last minute, when it's time for you to schedule, one of the classes you planned on signing up for has filled and closed," said junior Jennifer Kasson. Scheduling is based upon the number of credit hours completed; the more credit hout&jflne has, the earlier that , pclfiSinreikratibn. cotn- • 'Extremities ■ ■Vi plaint among students is thc fact that honors students and athletes have a priority when registering. "Priority registration for athletes is only meant to accommodate their practice and games schedules," said Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Dr. Kwesi E. Aggrey. "Honors students also have certain requirements that make it necessary for the university to make accommodations for them regarding their class schedules." According to Aggrey, priority scheduling is generally used to help students who face difficulties in scheduling classes due to additional requirements/responsibilities on campus. According to an academic advisor of the Communications and Philosophy department Dr. Karen Kline, the best way to plan one's schedule is to go to the Lock Haven website a few days prior to registering. This gives students the opportunity to make a list of ' desired classes that are open and available. When the registration time rolls around, there will be no hidden surprises and scheduling can be kept quick and easy. In doing this, the student will save time and stress will be kept to a minimum. Lock Haven students can read descriptions about offered courses by visiting the university's website. This list gives students a general idea about which classes he or she may be interested in taking. Another way to see which classes are still available is by going to www.lhup.edu/stulife. then entering the student ID number and password. Once logged in, the studend can retrieve the list by clicking on the link titled Registrar's Office (Student Access). As hard as scheduling classes may be, there are many people available who are willing to help in the situation. Each student is assigned to an academic advisor who may be able to guide students in the process, as well as any trusted professor on campus. semester Swim team dominates Penn State -Altoona See B8 See Bl runs as last The Eag/e jm local level, can take a lot out of a person and this one did," said Harvey But the end result was well worth it, according to Harvey.

"I want to encourage business opportunities and city-wide beaurification." Harvey also said that the believes that individuals within the city need to have more of a say in how their money is spent; whether it's for road work or police protection.

He appointed Matthew Wise, now vice president ofthe SCC as his Campaign Manager and LHU graduate Jason Fitzgerald as his Campaign Advisor. A group of volunteers helped out on the other parts of the campaign. Most of the volunteers were students in need of external experience for Dr. Kathleen McQuaid's classes. The students helped with the ins and outs of the campaign by making brochures, visiting citizens door-to-door and working the polls on Election Day; all of which Harvey was very grateful for. "I can honestly say that without the help of each and every one of our volunteers this opportunity would never have been made possible," said Harvey.

Some department chairs decided to take on thc position for many terms, while others take turns in the department. Dr. Tamson Six. of the Criminal Justice and Paralegal Department, said that her department "shares the responsibilities." Dr. Douglas S. Campbell who has been chair of the Communication and Philosophy department for 21 years has changed roles with a professor who has returned from sabbatical earlier this semester. "You have to have good skin and leadership skills," said Campbell. "You also have to put your ego on the back burner, and have a great appreciation of talents of people in the department." Dr. Karen Kline has taken over the position for Campbell this term, and has been interim chair before. "I hope everything I do become like second nature, and has a steep learning curve." said Kline. Some administrative work involved in being chair includes preparing thc semester schedule for the department, decidin which classes arc needed, how many are needed, which professor will be teaching what class, and at what time the class will be held. Department chairs also attend regular meetings for academic progress, and present the proposals for new courses or any other problems or comments that need to be addressed.

A3 lhueagleye.com November 16, 2005 Steps to take for graduation Preventing flu not hard to do Brandy Rissmiller Staff Reporter As the semester draws to a close, a lot of students are daydreaming about their winter breaks rather than thinking about their Spring 2006 classes. It is, however, important for students to be aware of where they are with theirclass ranking. As freshmen, students should concentrate on self and career awareness. They should use the year to learn more about themselves and to identify their personal interests, values, skills, and abilities. Freshmen should also familiarize themselves with various majors, even if they have already chosen a major. Career Services advises students to discuss this with faculty and upper-classmen, as they start to identify careers that might be compatible with their personalities and majors. Students should also become more involved with campus activities and clubs that will not only help explore many interests, but will help students gain friendships as well. After surviving that often tough first year, sophomores should begin career exploration. If they have not yet declared a major. Career Services advises students to do so during their second year and develop a tentative curriculum. Becoming aware of general career trends and future employment needs are an important thing to do as a sophomore, along with volunteer services related to their career interests. At the beginning of their junior year, students should learn more about career opportunities related to their major. They should also select courses in other areas that will compliment their major. Career Services employees said that it wasalso important to think about options after graduation. If students are considering graduate school, they should begin researching potential schools. Students can acquire skills their chosen field through an in internship, summer job or other work experience. Before the inevitable senioritis kicks in, seniors should establish contacts in their chosen field. Seniors should also complete thc course requirements in their major. If seniors are serious about graduate school then they should take the next step in the process and apply to graduate From Harvey, Al will be examining the places he would like to explore in the future, including county or The LHU senior has every intention of continuing his career in politics.

Harvey Harvey would like to see other students take the step he did in politics and make their voices heard in the communities where they are living. "1 strongly encourage the youth in this city and around the country to strongly take a schools and register to take the necessary exams. Career Services recommends that students attend job fairs to become more familiar with options they will soon be deciding upon. At this point of their academic careers, students should be updating resumes, collecting references and developing interview skills. Regardless ofthe number of credits students have earned, they can visit Career Services. Located in Akeley 114, Career Services offers students career advice, resume critiques and mock interviewing, among other things. For example, if freshmen and sophomores have not decided on a major, they can access the computer program FOCUS, which after answering a scries of questions, will provide the student with possible career paths. Juniors can use the resources the office offers to search for internships and to improve their resumes and cover letters. Seniors can establish credential files and review job vacancies. Career Services wishes the best of luck on finals and to graduating seniors. Students graduating in December should also not forget to stop by Career Services to pick up their resume kit. look at their interest in politics and take action." There is really no better representative of American youth than the American youth themselves, according to Harvey. While taking part and stepping up may be a challenge, it is one that Harvey attests can effect "many people in a very positive way." nflrmary offers tips BwJBwJBwJBwJBwJBwJBwJBIflY B* BTBTBflBTBTBBB¥ Since (George Washington U.) then.

Too much caffeine could mean problems Natalie Naylor The Utah Statesman (Utah State U.) - LOGAN, Utah Late night parties, early morning exams. Lets face it, college students are busy and having a jampacked schedule doesn't make it easy to get a good night's rest. This hectic lifestyle may explain why many students use caffeine to stay on top of things. to the According International Food Information Council on ific.org, caffeine is a naturally occurring substance found in the leaves, seeds or fruit of plants and is used for its stimulating effects. One of the most widely used drugs in the world, it can be found naturally in coffee and tea, added to beverages like sodas and energy drinks or used in a purer form like a caffeine pill. A typical caffeine pill contains about 200mg of caffeine, more than half of what the IFIC suggests as moderate caffeine consumption. These pills are easily available and can be purchased over the counter in drug stores. Caffeine pills are often used by college students in order to make it though long nights of study or work. As with any drug, it is possible to overdose and though those cases are rare, they can be fatal. Saralee Busson, a junior majoring in animal science said she took a caffeine pill once before going out to a late party with some friends. "It made me feel jittery, ornery and kind of tired," Busson said. Busson said she would never want to take another caffeine pill because she didn't like the way it made her feel. Nate Bench, a senior majoring in history, said he will occasionally drink a coke to help himself wake up a little because he doesn't drink coffee. Bench said he tried a caffeine pill and had a "buzz" for about 4-6 hours. "1 try to stay away from those," Bench said. "But I think they are used a lot more then we think." Amy Straley, a registered dietician at USU's Health and Wellness Center, said that caffeine is safe as long as it is used in moderation. About 300 mg a day is considered by most experts as moderate caffeine consumption. That is equivalent to approximately 3 cups of coffee. Straley hasn't heard of anyone at USU overdosing or coming to the Wellness Center to get help because of a caffeine addiction. "Caffeine is a naturally it is occurring stimulant safe to use once in a while," Straley said. Straley said many students rely on the caffeine found in coffee and some sodas to help them stay awake or for extra energy. "It does work, but you just don't want to rely on caffeine all of the time," Straley said. Straley said drinking caffeine or taking caffeine pills will not take the place of getting sleep. She said that excessive caffeine use can affect sleep patterns in students and even though there isn't any conclusive evidence that caffeine can cause health problems, there are relation- — ships found between not getting enough sleep and weight gain. "There is a possibility of weight gain with caffeine use," Straley said. "Because caffeine contributes to lack of sleep and when people are drinking soda trying to stay up late, they are usually munching on snacks." Rebecca Earl, a senior majoring in international studies, has never done caffeine pills but she does really like to have a coke now and then. "Coca Cola does weird things to me, I love it but I can't drink one before I go to bed because it will take me like four hours to go to sleep," Earl said. The IFIC also states that individuals vary greatly in their sensitivity to caffeine, some people can drink several cups of coffee, tea or soft drinks within an hour and notice no effects, whereas others may feel stimulating effects after one serving. Emilee Hunter, a senior majoring in history, rarely goes a day without a Diet Coke. She attributes this to her upbringing. "Pretty much after the bottle, my parents put a straw into a can of Tab," Hunter said. Now, she said caffeine does not affect her like it does most people. "1 could drink a coke before bed and still go to sleep," Hunter said. Hunter said she doesn't drink Diet Coke to get a caffeine buzz, but rather, because Straley said. ... way."

She said that many customers will get multiple shots of espresso in a beverage several times in one day. Espresso is a highly concentrated coffee drink that contains about 40 mg of caffeine per shot. "There is a regular customer that comes in about twice a day and gets a triple or quad every time," Hunter said. "That is about six-eight shots of espresso a day," Hunter said. Hunter said that normally a 12-ounce drink gets one shot of espresso and a 16-ounce drink gets two. Straley suggests that students who are trying to reduce their caffeine intake should not just quit "cold turkey" because they will go though caffeine withdrawals. caffeine "Decreasing intake by one less soda a day or by substituting one caffeinated soda for a caffeinefree soda once a day for a week is a good way to start," Straley said. Some of the symptoms of caffeine withdrawals include headaches, lethargy and feeling the blues, he said. "After that initial period, the body gets used to it and you're OK," Straley said. Straley cautions students to not substitute thc caffcinated beverage for a different high-calorie soda or food "Drink skim milk or water flavored with crystal light," she likes how it tastes.

If students want to spend time studying abroad in a relaxed setting that allows for sightseeing and traveling, or they don't want to spend an entire semester away from home, this is the best way to experience it," Gerhart said. The cost of the program starts at $2775, minus a $250 travel grant to Lock Haven University full-time students from International Studies. There is also a tuition fee for six hours of coursework and fees for dining, entertainment and travel throughout Students jam at Java Therapy London. "I would think history, English, and theater majors would be interested due to the intersection of their areas of study and the experiential element of the trip, said Hicks. "Students do not just get your curriculum in a book while in London, but they get to see it in person." Hicks continued to say that there is also the international part of the program. It is a chance for students to live overseas, and to be part of another culture for less than a semester. One of the reasons for going in the summer is that the shorter term means it's more affordable, though you get the experience of living in a huge city in a flat, taking public transportation, coping with weather, language, and all of the cultural advantages that come with it. "Everyone who has ever gone has said how much it has changed their lives in some way," said Hicks.
