Associate degree program almost a reality
By Barnara Kauffman
An Associate degree program in Special
Education has been approved by the college
wide curriculum committee at a meeting on
Thursday, February 10. The program was
developed by Dr. Peter Matthews and Dr.
Ira Masemore.
If this program should receive the stamp
of approval from Harrisburg, Lock Haven
State College (LHSC) President Craig
Willis, and the dean's council, LHSC
would be the only state college in Pennsylvania to achieve such a program. Clarion
State College has a related associate degree
program, but according to Dr. Matthews, it
is limited in its scope.

The curriculum would include 24
semester hours of core courses such as introduction to exceptionalities, therapies
and rehabilitation, behavior management
and six semester hours of field experience.
Electives are also included in this program.
Six credits of electives must be selected with
an advisor in related fields including social
work, recreation, psychology and special
education. There are 30 credits of other
courses in the associate degree program
which closely resemble the already
established general education studies in
other majors. The courses for this area
must still be selected from the same areas of
general education studies such as natural
sciences, history and mathematics. These

courses also must be selected on the advice
of advisors.
According to Dr. Matthews, "This type
of program would give someone an alternative to being locked into a four year program." If approved, this two year program
would join the 32 other Associate degree
programs offered by nine of our sister colleges.
The future of the Associate degree program in habilitation has yet to be decided
by the dean's council and the president, and
then Harrisburg. Dr. Matthews is not terribly hopeful about the passage of the program within the near future. "There is no
chance within the next few years," said
Matthews, "because we need to hire

another professor, our first priority right
now is to meet the needs of existing programs."
The scope of the program at Lock Haven
would prepare graduates to work with
public and private agencies in settings ranging from education to health delivery and
vocational rehabilitation. This program
would be aimed toward "someone who
would be more employable or have a higher
level of competency in the job they are
presently employed," stated Matthews.
The associate degree is intended to serve
an unmet need as no community college or
other institution of higher learning in this
geographical area has such a program.

Renovations completed
By Dan Rupert
Renovations totalling more than a
quarter of a million dollars have been completed at Lock Haven State College (LHSC)
for handicapped students. New ramps, railings, doors, water fountains and fire alarms
have been installed to be used by the handicapped.
The added renovations are the result of
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973. The act states that handicapped
students should be given the same rights as
other students.
In an attempt to follow the act, the college tried to make it possible, through
renovations, for a handicapped student to
gain access to every building he may need to
enter.
Robert Storch, director of affirmative action wa s originally in charge of the project
conducted by the college. In 1977, Storch
developed a transition plan that was designed to place the college in minimum compliance with regard to section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act. "1 planned it so that
handicapped students could gain access into
every educational program and activity for
which they are otherwise qualified," Storch

Minor

said.
Also helping in the renovations on campus was the Handicapped Accessibility
Committee, which got its start as the result
of the Rehabilitation Act. Karla Nurczyk,
former assistant dean of Student Life, was
the head of the organization with the help
of LHSC Vice-President George Marshall.
"We did a good job of planning, but it
came off totally due to the efforts of Karla
Nurczyk," said Marshall. The Handicapped Accessibility Committee is very active
on the college campus. With the success of
the Handicapped Awareness Day, the committee is currently looking for a centralized
office where handicapped people can go for
general information.
Even though the renovations are completed, the college doesn't expect a large increase in enrollment by handicapped
students. The reason for no noticeable increase is due to the fact that every state college had to meet the same state regulations.
Since LHSC barely meets requirements of
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, like
other state schools, no increase of handicapped students are expected, although
they are welcomed.

blaze causes evacuation of North

By Marcelo Cancelli
A minor Are of unknown origin caused
the evacuation on Saturday night, of all
North Hall residents for approximately one
and one half hours. No injuries or damages
were reported.
According to Officer Gary Barrett of the
Campus Law Enforcement, firemen were
called in at 7:42 p.m. on Saturday when
spme residents of the third floor women's
floor of North Hall pulled the fire alarm.
The students residing at North Hall were
asked to remain outside while the first
stages of the search were being carried out.
Later on the residents were allowed to go
into the lobby where most of them remained for the rest of the search.
According to Officer Gary Barrett, room
316 "was full of smoke and at first we
thought that the garbage chute was on fire
since 316 is right beside it." Lock Haven
firemen arrived minutes later in three fire

trucks and one rescue vehicle and joined
Law Enforcement in the search for the
cause of the fire.
It was found that the garbage chute was
not related to the smoke and the search was
centered on room 316.
At the same time maintenance personnel
were called in to check on the wiring
around,above and below room 316.
Nothing conclusive was found. "We
suspect that something was burning in the
room and was carried out and disposed
of," Officer Barrett said. "By whom and
how, we don't know," he added.
The residents of room 316, Lisa Aurand
and Sue Goldfinch were not in at the time
of the incident.
Goldfinch, an Australian exchange student, said that she had been in the room approximately 20 minutes before the alarm
sounded. "1 was on fifth floor when it all
happened and I really have no idea what

might have h a p p e n e d , " she said.
Everything in her room was moved out to
the corridor during the search, according to
Goldfinch, but nothing of real importajjce

Hall

suffered any damage. " I guess the only real
damage that this fire caused were some
doughnuts I had with me that were ruined
by the smoke," she added jokingly.

New SCC Senators selected

By Holly Williams
Eleven new Student Cooperative Council
(SCC) s e n a t o r s were e l e c t e d in
Wednesday's senate election. One hundred
and thirty-four people voted in the election
which SCC Vice-President Brian Lane said
he considered to be a moderate turnout.
Lane explained one possible reason for
the moderate turnout saying, "One big
reason was because activity fees weren't
paid." He also said that some of the polling
times might have been inconvenient for
some students.
Anothei election will be held on Tuesday,
March 4, because of an increase in students

at the college. Two more off-campus positions will be filled and three positions in
McEntire Hall will be filled because of a
lack of candidates in Wednesday's election.
Lane said of the McEntire Hall situation,
"We can only offer and ask people to do
things, we can't make them."
The new senators are: Smith Hall - Kevin
Keenan and Denise Macrina, Russell Hall
-Lee Halladay, McEntire Hall - Beth Eayre,
North Hall - Maria Baracaia and Kevin
Peterson, Gross Hall - Paul Lawrence and
Kevin Choate, off-campus - Linda Dunphy,
Mike Rhubright, and John Stemler.

Are we really here to learn?
Ah-hum, what can I complain about today? Let's see, 1 can complain about the
"Stars on 4 5 " concert, but my two colleagues over there to my right have done a good
enough job of that. Student apathy has been beat into the ground, but to no avail, and
there are still immature students who make fun of their peers.
Don't worry though, 1 won't alter the course of most editorials and actually say
something nice, because after pondering for a while, I managed to find something that
displeases me.
After taking some 40 classes at LHSC, I have made some observations regarding
classroom behavior and attitudes. Perhaps it's me, but I get the feeling that a good
many students only go to class because it is a course requirement, and that while they
are in class they have no desire to leam.
What's even worse, the childish high school attitudes of laughing at those who wish to
participate in class discussions has occurred on more than just a few occassions. I feel
that this sort of attitude is not only rude and ignorant, but to a much larger degree, it actually spreads hke the dreaded black plague. Once Johnny thinks it's funny, then, hell,
it must be funny.
And then there's the poor professor who tries to stimulate class discussion, only to
find that the students look like they've seen just one too many episodes of "Laverne
and Shirley." Actually, they're just wondering how nice it would be to be somewhere
other than the class they are in - usually in a world that has nothing to do with reality.
Is there really a taboo around here that shuns people away from getting turned on by
learning something new? Is there something wrong with actually raising a hand so one
can better understand the professor's lecture?
Learning is a gift that humans have that is virtually unique to all other species of
animals, especially when dealing with complex concepts that vividly explain reality. If
you go to class with no desire to learn, but only to regurgitate the material, you are not
only wasting your time and money, but you are also cheating yourself of one of the
greatest gifts of life - learning.
I realize that some professors have nothing pertineiit to say about anything, but I do
feel they are in the minority. And if you happen to be stuck in one of those classes you
may as well make the best of it. After all, that man or woman in front of the class may
convey some knowledge that will make you a better person.

^'Stars on 45'^ earns no respect
By Brian Hunt
When I first heard the news that "Stars
on 4 5 " were coming here 1 thought it was
the best joke I'd heard in years. Surely no
one took these guys serious enough to actually hire them. When I discovered that the
joke was on me I was enraged. It's that simple. I just couldn't understand.
But now I understand perfectly. Of
course "Stars on 4 5 " were the obvious
choice. What other band can play tunes by
everybody's favorites and roll them into
one two-hour set? What other band can
satisfy the average adolescent's musical
'taste' with such 'versatility' and 'variety?'
It had to be these guys. No one else would
have the gall to try it.
As to their success, there is no doubt. As
to their integrity, there is no hope. Think
about it a minute. They don't have to waste
time and precious energy trying to create
something even remotely original. They
don't have to bother with testing their
material - they rely only on what has
already been proven marketable. These
guys play it safe to the point of nausea. And
what could be easier than buying a Beatles
anthology, memorizing the refrains to their

Women's Resource Organization. This
organization may mean nothing to you, but
it takes me back to Mother's Day in 1980 at
Lock Haven State. I was walking back from
brunch at Bentley and on a beautiful May
Sunday I saw a group of women recognizing the day in quite a unique way. Women
were gathered on Price Patio. One was singing to a small audience. Others were waiting
to perform, to dance or to sing.
Exhibits of art forms were delicately placed around the patio. It was a celebration of
women and the most creative women from
all around the state came to recognize the
most important aspect of being a womanmotherhood.
That was just one of the many events that
the Women's Resource Organization
(WRO) offered our campus. The short
history, from the beginning to the crucial
end, is shocking.
A young troubled student found herself
pregnant and with no place to turn, had her
baby, unattended in one of the residence
halls. After delivering she abandoned it in a
car by an old area factory. Before this occurance, many female students had made
proposals for a women's organization. Unfortunately, the SCC and the Administration didn't feel a need for such an organization.
After this alarming incident, the Administration with the conjunction of the
SCC. poured $2000 into the Women's
Resource Organization and the group was
off the ground.
At that time, the purpose of the organization was birth control education. Abortion
wasn't legal at the time. With the strength
of good leadership and wide campus interest, the organization built a reputation
for itself. They held numerous events and
started an extensive file on all types of
literature about women. Often, the files
were used for social research papers. It was
open to all students and benefitted many.
As time progressed, leadership got,

weaker. Funds were spent haphazardly.
Soon, gay women took over. This scared
the straight women off and the whole purpose of the WRO was distorted. It became a
lesbian club.
Since 1980, the organization has become
totally defunct. The room which is located
in Russell Hall is used by some of the
residents for kitchen facilities. The files remain unused. The services are inexistant.
"1 haven't seen any pressing need to start
up again," said Ms. Virginia Martin, an advisor to the organization. "The services are
downtown (Women's Center)."
With the access to the Women's Center
downtown, the WRO may not be needed.
Martin claims the increasing apathy
epidemic which is happening across the
country, on all campuses and each
organization, as it's downfall.
Personally, I hate when anyone uses
" a p a t h y " as,, an excuse for an
organization's failure. Maybe what WRO
needs, like many other campus clubs, is to
reorganize their objectives and cater to the
needs of the 1980's student and not the 70's
rebellious one.
Most women are educated in birth control by the time they enter college or they
are already aware of the services provided
in the area. It seems the 80's student is
aware and know what is going on. I hate to
use the word apathy when it is mere
disinterest.
Maybe the Women's Resource Organization should re-evaluate their purposes.
What about such issues as what to wear on
job interviews, how to survive in a male
dominated field, such as computer science?
How about aggressiveness workshops and
rap sessions? Would the women on campus
like to be educated in basic woodworking,
simple automotive work and simple fix-it
jobs?
It seems that in 1983 birth control may be
eleriientary to LHSC women, but there is
still a "need" to learn so much more.

Remind me to take a car sickness pill next
time 1 pay my activity fee. The way in which
our money was spent last week made me
really dizzy. Thursday and Friday of last
week brought to the Haven, the best and
the worst of musical entertainment.
In Sloan Theatre Thursday night,
"Calliope, a Renaissance Band," brought
back to life the music that flourished about
500 years ago. Then, a mere one night later,
a joke called "Stars on 4 5 " dropped music
to an all time low, by severely damaging
great pop songs that are still fresh in our
minds.
While Calliope was an inspiring tribute,
"Stars on 4 5 " was an embarassing ripoff.
Calliope's performance called for a special
frame of mind and evoked, from me,
special moods. Whereas, "Stars on 45's"
performance called for no mind and evoked, from me, $2.50. The intense musical

hits, and piling them on top of each other in
one quaint little medley?
What I can't understand is how anyone
who even remotely admires the Beatles or
any other group these guys cash in on can
take this sitting down. How can anyone
who appreciates the value of the Stones or
the Beatles put up with this faceless bunch
of pseudo musicians whoring that value
around in the name of Rock and Roll?
Don't get me wrohg. I have no problem
with bands doing covers of other's songs.
But 1 always thought the reason behind
covering songs was to acknowledge a
respect for the song and to put something
of oneself into that song. Surely it's not to
blatantly copy someone else's work for
one's own profit.
In closing, let me say this. If someone
tried to push off Salinger's • Franny and
Zooy as their own work they would be guilty of outright plagerism and be punished.
But to study Salinger and learn from him is
another matter entirely. Granted, it is a fine
line, but there is no doubt that "Stars on
4 5 " fall on the other side of the fence. And
besides, what ever happened to Rock and
Roll?
realization I saw Thursday kept me awake,
while the boring musical farce 1 saw Friday
required coffee. I wouldn't have missed the
advanced musicians in Calliope for
anything. I would have skipped the
degrading spectacle of "Stars on 4 5 " to
watch an episode of Wonder Woman.
Calliope, who boasted beautiful chemistry,
felt their instruments and played from the
heart. While the struggling amateurs in
"Stars on 4 5 " held their instruments and
played only for trade.
So my activity fee brought me both exuberance and anger last week. But, while
admission to the classy concert was free, the
ridiculous concert cost $2.50. It seems as
though the SCC still owes us a good pop
concert. Wake up SCC folks; "Stars on
4 5 " was suitable for sixth graders, not for
the college students who give you your
money in the first place.

Clarion cops PSAC title; Eagles take third
By Martin Pflieger
The 40th annual Pennsylvania Conference wrestling tournament held at Edinboro State College Friday and Saturday was
expected to be a dog fight with Clarion,
Bloomsburg, Lock Haven, and SUppery
Rock, all capable of walking off with the
over-all team championship. But in the end
when the dust settled. Clarion emerged the
clear victor, rolling up 163 points and copping seven individual champions- a new tournament record.
Clarion's individual champions included
Jamey Kasser at 118 pounds, Mark Ciccarello, 134 pound winner and Most
Outstanding Wrestler, Ken Nellis at 142,
Nate Carter at 158, Rob Albert at 167,
Brian Kesneck at 177, and Jim Beichner at
190. Heavyweight Curt Olson finished second for the Golden Eagles.
Bloomsburg finished in second place with

125'/i points and crowned one individual
champion in heavyweight Joe Wade, who
decisioned Olson 4-1. Runner-ups for the
Huskies were Todd Cummings (118),
Woody Fry (126), Nelson Fritz (134), and
Tom Gibble (177).
The Bald Eagles of Lock Haven had high
hopes of improving upon last year's third
place finish, but Neil Turner's grapplers
could climb no higher than third, as they
held down the position again this year with
107 points
Perhaps even more disappointing for
Lock Haven was their failure to land any individual titles. They did, however, place all
ten wrestlers- the only team in the tournament to do so.
The highest finisher for Lock Haven was
last years Most Outstanding Wrestler and
defending 158 pound champion Doug
Buckwalter, who lost to Carter 16-9 in the

championship bout. Ironically, Buckwalter
easily defeated Carter 17-7 in a duel meet a
week before conferences.
"Realistically, going into the tournament
we had a shot at winning the team title,"
said Turner. "Obviously we're disappointed at not doing better, but anytime
you set goals for yourself and you don't attain them, you're bound to be disappointed. If you don't set goals, you have
nothing to shoot for."
Three time conference runner-up Mike
Millward nailed down third place at 126
pound, while junior Don Parsley took a
third at 134. In perhaps the toughest of the
weight classes. Ken Whitsel finished fifth
with a :59 second fall over Harry HeinI of
California State.
Tom Kreamer, a junior with sophomore
eligibility, captured fourth place at 142
pounds. Junior Leonard Mummau finished

fifth at 150 pounds with a forfeit win over
Steve Roberts of Slippery Rock. Also
finishing fifth were sophomore Brian
Callahan at 167 pounds, and freshman
Greg Wykoff at 177 pounds.
Second seeded Ed Black picked-up
fourth place at 190 pounds, and
heavyweight Rick Peterson equalled his
third place seeding. Peterson registered
four falls in the tournament, setting a
school record in the process.
Mat Notes: This year was the first since
1969 that Lock Haven defeated both
Bloomsburg and Clarion in duel meet.
In the most recent Eastern Mat Poll,
Lock Haven is ranked fifth ahead of
Clarion, Pitt, Hofstra, Wilkes, and Temple. Penn State is first followed by Navy,
Lehigh, and Syracuse.

Lady Eagles drop tough 69-62 tilt to Slippery Rock
By Dave Pnisak
The second half outside shooting of Beth
Fedorowich and Jodi Kest va^ilted Slipjjery
Rock State College to a hard fought 69-62
triumph over Lock Haven State College in
women's basketball here on Saturday.
The Lady Rockets, 18-4 overall and 8-0
in the Pennsylvania Conference, had their
hands full with the Lady Eagles in the first
half.
The Lady Rockets were up 11-4 with
12:36 left in the half, but a jumpter by senior
Sandy Miller gave LHSC their first lead,
14-13 at the 7:30 mark. Baskets were then
swapped, with turnovers galore, until
freshman Tina Martin hit a layup off a
scramble under the offensive boards with
one second remaining to give LHSC a 26-24
lead at the intermission.
The Lady Eagles held Slippery Rock's
high scoring trio of Fedorowich, Kest, and
Mary Vaughn to a total of just 14 points in
the opening 20 minutes. The Lady Rockets
limited LHSC's talented freshmen tandem

of Martin and Chris Agresta to only four
points each in the first half. Miller paced
the Lady Eagles in the first half by canning
a dozen markers.
In the second half the Lady Eagles fell
victim to a tough Slippery Rock press. The
Slippery Rock offense also began to click as
Fedorowich and Kest connected from the
outside and Vaughn converted from the inside. It was Fedorowich's rainbow from
downtown with 10:47 left in the game that
gave the Lady Rockets the lead they would
never relinquish.
With 8:30 remaining, LHSC center Helen
Woltman hit a layup to reduce the Lady
Rocket advantage to 50-47. But a series of
shots b)^ the Lady Rockets combined with a
few mental mistakes by the Lady Eagles
enabled the visitors to seal the victory.
Vaughn finished with 15, while
Fedorowich and Kest tallied 14 each to lead
the Lady Rockets.
Woltman, who played an effective inside
game, led the Lady Eagle attack by scoring
18 points. Miller, who has averaged 18
points in her last three games, netted 16.
Also in double figures was Martin, with a
hard earned 14 points.
Following the loss LHSC coach Fred
Riley said, "We were hurt by our own mental mistakes in addition to a tough second

(the better team that came out on top."
Riley added, "Sue Kuhn played a good
floor leader game for us. Sandy (Miller) and

Helen (Woltman) had good games. Our
team did the best they could considering
that Slippery Rock is now lg-4."
On Tuesday night the LHSC squad will
travel to Bucknell where they hope to improve on their 9-9 record.

Rockets blitzkrieg Eagles in second half
By Chris Brooks
High scoring Bill Rausch broke loose for
38 points and led a furious Slippery Rock
comeback that saw the Rockets turn an 18
point first half deficit into an 81-74 victory
over the Lock Haven State men cagers
Saturday in Thomas Field House.
Rausch, who scored 39 points against Indiana University of Pennsylvania last
Wednesday, is one of the nation's leading
NCAA Division II scorers, averaging over
25 points per game. The 6'2" senior bettered that total in the second half alone of
Saturday's contest.
The Eagles, now 4-20 overall, played
possibly their best half of basketball in the
first period, building leads of 10 to 15
points throughout. Mike Greene's
breakaway slam dunk gave the Eagles their
largest lead of the game at 19 with :30 left in
the half. LHSC went into the intermission
with a 42-24 advantage.
During the half, Greene scored 16
points and senior Greg O'Connell had 12.
The defensive trio of O'Connell, Sam June,
and Jeff Jackman held Rausch to just 10

pomts.

As the second half started, it was clear
that a major turnaround was inevitable.
June was whistled for his fourth foul just
one minute into the half and had to be
replaced. Soon after, O'Connell joined him
on the bench with his fourth.
That.however, was just the beginning of the
problems for coach Brad Black's squad, as
Slippery Rock raced to a 21-2 spurt to take
the lead, 46-45. The Eagles comfortable 18
point lead was erased in just 6:55.
"Early foul trouble and our lack of poise
(in the second halO gave Slippery Rock the
momentum," said Black.
The Rockets' momentum and the
Eagles'drought continued as LHSC managed a total of six points for the first 12:30 of
the period. By that time, the Rockets were
up by 12, 60-48. Lock Haven battled back
to within six, 72-66 with 2:10 left, but Slippery Rock repelled the final charge.
Greene led the Eagle scoring attack with
22 points, but was not a factor in the second
half when LHSC needed the scoring punch
most. O'Connell scored a career high 21

points in the losing cause. Troy Mild, the
Rockets' second leading scorer, hit for 17
points in support of Rausch.
Lock Haven will travel to Clarion
Wednesday, and will play its last home
game Saturday against lUP at 8:00 p.m.

Campus radio station comes of age on WLHC
By Charlie Roberts
Feature Editor
In business, as^in life, measures of success
are the abiUty to adjust to change and the
ability to mature and reach for higher goals.
This has been the key to success for
WLHC-FM, Lock Haven State College's
campus radio station.
WLHC-FM went on the air for the first

time 15 months ago, with seven discjockeys broadcasting for about two hours
daily. It was a cooperative effort by Station
Manager Dr. Saundra Hybels and Programming Director Mike Polandick, and
began as a training ground for LHSC journalism students who were interested in going into the radio business. "We offered an
alternative," says Polandick, "we were the

only rock station in Lock Haven, and at
that time WSQV was a very young
station."
Still, WLHC had to compete with WSQV
for a listening audience, and because of its
limited programming, WLHC had to make
some changes.
The station grew quickly, adding programming and disc-jockeys to provide
variety to the station's format. Fifteen
months later only four of the original discjockeys remain. Dennis Harris, one of the
four, is staiton manager. "We now broadcast nine and one-half hours on weekdays,
and approximately twelve hours on
weekends," said Harris. Harris also added
that the station cannot broadcast 24 hours a
day because it is still used for class instruction, as it was originally intended.
"We have added a lot more disc-jockeys

to add variety to our programming, and
give-aways have begun to attract more
listeners," said Harris. "With the use of
give-aways, including movie tickets, sundaes, and subs, as well as with call-in talk
shows, we are trying to get the listeners
more involved."
The station broadcasts at 90.3 on the FM
dial, and is presently only a campus station
available on the cable. Students can hear
WLHC-FM from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 4:30
p.m. to midnight daily, emd from noon till
midnight on weekends. "WLHC-FM has
been successful because it has grown and
adjusted, and the growing process is continuing," says Kevin Wentink, WLHC-FM
program director. "We try to play the most
popular music and combine it with rock
classics to bring students the best programming around."

Mr. Robert Bravard, director of library
services, is a good friend and former coworker of Robinson. "He was wonderful to
work with. The best of it was his sense of
dry, rich humor," said Bravard. He is very
proud of his Irish heritage and has traveled
to Ireland. He is patient and gets the best
out of you. He is very open-minded
towards the students."
Robinson is also the founder and advisor

The Learning Research Center will be
renamed "Robinson Learning Center" on
Wednesday, April 27, according to Karin
Van Deun, director of alumni affairs.
Gerald Robinson, former vice-president
of academic affairs and dean of Lock
Haven State College, was one of the people
recommended by the Alumni Office. After
a vote from the Board of Trustees at
LHSC, Robinson was picked to receive this
honor. Van Deun said.
Robinson began at LHSC in 1954 as a
director of secondary education, and later
became the dean of instruction. In the
mid-60's, he advanced to vice-president,
and he retired as the dean of the college in
1976.
