Lock Haven Universites S RHA budget cut creates controversy This policy pertains to banquets, picnics and programs, and is unwritten because by Jen Baer Eagle Eye News Editor_ When the Student Cooperative Council (SCC) worked out the new budgets for University clubs a few weeks ago, it cut all Resident Assistant (RA) programming money from the Residence Hall Association (RHA). This brought about an apf)eal of the budget by the RHA and a debate at Wednesday night's SCC meeting (see side story). The RHA budget was cut because of an unwritten policy enacted by the Student Appropriation's Committee (SAC) which does not allow "activity fee money to be used for the purchase of food for closed functions," said Matt Masters, SCC Treas- nated from the budgets. A random sample of one of the residence SCC passes 1994-95 budget by Jennifer Bowes Eagle Eye News Editor_ The Student Cooperative Council (SCC) voted 28-5 last night to pass its 1994-95 budget, despite conflict over the proposed Residence Hall Association (RHA) budget. Several RHA members were on hand at the meeting to voice their views on this every year the SCC needs to see what it can spend, he said. Last year food was elimi- subject. "This cut will hurt something that has been working fine," said Scott Helfirich, the newly elected president of the RHA. He was concerned the cut would hurt the programming and residents. The controversy concerned the fact that the RHA uses part of its budget money to (see SCC page 2) halls found that "well over half the RA's programming money was being spent on food, according to Masters. All the RA money was originally cut in the hopes that RHA would give the SCC an explanation as to where all its money was going, Masters said. The SCC did not have to wait long for this explanation. When the programming money was cut, the RHA treasurer, an RA appealed the cut, said Wendy Walsh, the RHA advisor, who also appealed the cut. RHA showed the SCC what has been done with the programs, Walsh said. Over 18,000 people participated in RHA, RA, and Hall Council supported programs in the fall, she said. After the budget cut was appealed, the SCC returned half the money that had been cut to the RHA. This past year, each RA (see Budget/7t2ge 2) Earth Day heightens awareness of environment distributed.

The person was extremely intoxicated. An ambulance was requested, and the person was taken to Lock Haven Hospital for observation. The person received a citation for public intoxication. Underage Drinking: April 23 - Law enforcement was notified by the communications center that there was a person sick in one of the bathrooms in a residence hall. Officers arrived and asked for the person's name but got no response. An ambulance was dispatched, and the person was taken to Lock Haven Hospital. The person, who was not a student, was heavily intoxicated and received a citation for underage drinking. Accident: April 23 - Law enforcement investigated an accident that occurred between North and McEntire halls. A vehicle drifted down the roadway from McEntire Hall, across the roadway leading to Gross Hall, and struck a light pole. No one was in the vehicle. No estimated damage was available. Underage Drinking: April 23 - A person was observed stumbling and staggering while being helped by two other individuals. When stopped by law enforcement, the person spoke with slurred speech. A citation for underage drinking was issued to the individual. Harassment by Communication: AprU 21 - Law enforcement is currently investigating a report of a harassing phone call to a student in one of the residence halls. The person, who sounded like an older male, stayed on the line for approximately one minute and hung up. Feeling a little sick when you've been in the computer lab lately? You may have caught a virus — on your disk, that is. A virus has recently run rampant in the University's computer labs. The majority of the people using the computer lab in Raub Hall have been affected by the virus, said Kevin Douglas, a worker in the lab. To make sure they don't become victims of the virus, students should run the virus scan when they insert their disks into the computer. To do this, they need to click on the virus scan A-drive icon in Microsoft Word for Windows. Doing this will scan the disk and let them know if a virus is present. If a virus is found, they should click on the symbol which allows them to clear the virus from their disks. A team of four people is cleaning thecomputer labs of the virus, said Joseph King, who also works in the lab. All of the computers have been cleared of the virus, but it is still "floating around" on some peoples' disks, he said. The virus is very random and may or may not ruin the files on a disk. King said. The PC Users Group will be holding a meeting on Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. in one of the classrooms in Akeley Hall, where information about the virus will be provided. Students with questions about the meeting or the virus may contact King at 893-3393. Budget yrom/>flge one grams be successful, she said. "It's an incentive," Walsh said as she pointed out that food helps get people to attend the programs. The SCC took away some of the RAs "ability to program successfully," she said. "The hall councils and the RAs work so well together, and that $30 is just a part of it," Walsh said. The SAC Committee felt the RHA should use its fund-raising budget to purchase food for the programs. Masters said. The fundraising budget is separate from the budget given by the SCC. "1 don't think the same motivation, the same fun, the same spirit will be there," Walsh said about the programs after the budget cut. The RAs can program without the food and still be successful. Masters said. They can have exactly the same programs and use the fund-raising money to buy food for the programs, he said. RAs will still be required to have the same number of programs a semester, according to Walsh. received $30 per semester to use for programming. Following the appeal, the SCC decided to give each RA $15 a semester for programming during the 1994-95 fiscal year. The RHA, however, was not happy with the $15 per semester for each RA. Members of the organization attempted to prevent the budget from being passed at the • SCC meeting Wednesday night, but the new budget was approved by a vote of 28 to 5. A total of $1,560 was cut that the RHA was concerned about, Walsh said. The money was not only cut, but the RHA was told how to spend it, she said. Walsh had several arguments against the cut. "RHA oversees a great deal of student activities on campus," she said. These include Club Haven, Family Day and Spring Week. "It's crazy that we're being considered a club," Walsh said. "We're not a club. We're an activities board." Walsh also felt food should not have been an item.

Helfrich stressed that the organization targets all students, even those who live off-campus, and all are welcome to attend RHA events and meetings. Helfrich said he circulated a ^petition asking students if they believed food purchased with budget money should be a part of their programs. Over 550 people signed the petition in favor of it. He also said the incentive with food is drawing a lot of people and is an "integral part." Senator Theresa Copenhaver addressed the issue that many off-campus students are not aware of events being held in the residence halls. Helfrich said that although these events were not advertised widely in the past, more is being done to publicize them. Cultural Affairs Committee Chairperson Jen Pawlo said a majority of the clubs had budget cut backs, and she hoped the RHA didn't feel it was targeted at them. Voting as an off-campus senator, she said she felt a majority of the off-campus students do not feel as if the RHA programs are targeted towards them. Wendy Walsh, advisor of the RHA, said not every club's budget was cut. The University Players budget was raised, she said. While the University Players provides cultural programs to the University, the RHA does this and also brings educational programs, said Walsh. Eighty-five percent of students live on campus at one time during their college career, she said. Recording Secretary Steph Kline said she felt everyone was missing the point. Clubs should not be allowed to buy food for closed meetings with budgeted money, she said. The RHA is not the "exception to the rule," she added. Senator Janel Clayton said since the RHA is using more than half of the money for food and programs not ofjen to everyone on campus, the budget should be passed. Dr. Linda Koch, vice president for student affairs, felt the SCC and the RHA have a "common purpose" — to serve the students of the University. A desire for "common ground" and not the "animosity" created in this room should be sought, she said. Koch wondered if there was a better way to achieve what the two groups were looking at. "The decision has to do with making [the University] better," she said. Professor Paula Bell, an advisor to the SCC, said that everyone wanting "power, glory and status" is a problem in both the s e e and the campus. Students need to get involved and communicate — the senators should be expressing the views of the RHA members in attendance, she said. The meeting was also a time for "change. This year's SCC officers said their farewells and thanked various people, and the new executive board was sworn in.; Jason Cristafaro, the new SCC president, stated his motto is that his door is open to everyone on campus.

"These proposals coming before us are totally unprepared," said Senator Tom Skelley, adding the proposals are vague. "I'm not going to support it," he said. Dr. Richard Clark, chair of the Academic Policies Committee, discussed the issues of admission and retention in the major and effects of permitting departments to raise the QPA. Clark told senators he has the same concerns they do. He said he thinks that students should not be barred from entering a major because the QPA is too high. He said students have graduated from Millersville University with a 2.0 in their major and have become productive citizens in society. "QPA isn't everything," Clark said. "There is more to a person than a QPA." If departments are allowed to raise the QPA, Clark questions how professors will handle students who need better grades to remain in the major. "Will instructors within the department tend to pad the grades, so [students] can maintain a 2.75?" he said, - courtesy The Snapper Fee provides outdoor activities (INDIANA) - Many lUP students may be getting exactly what they're paying for in the line of their lUP tuition bill labeled "activities fee." One of those things included in the fee is the Co-op Recreation Park. This 200acre plus area of land can be accessed by lUP students with a validated l-Card 24 hours a day, seven days a week. "First of all, we have the lodge buildings that organizations can reserve at no charge for meetings, social gatherings, receptions, whatever," said Chuck Conrad, director of campus recreation. "Then we have the ski hut for smaller groups. The lodge will hold up to approximately 200 guests, and for the winter, we have it reserved for the skiing operation, where anyone with an I-Card can go out and ski (with a ski pass). "In addition to that, we've got about two miles of an exercise trail where there's 18 exercise stations laid out over a portion of the trails." The park is open "to anyone with an ICard," Conrad said. "We have a lot of faculty and staff who use the park, but it's mainly for students with valid I-Cards." Conrad also noted the university-owned boats, including canoes, catamarans and others, are available for student rental at Yellow Creek State Park outside of Indiana. Transportation to and from the lodge and Yellow Creek are provided free by the Co-op. - courtesy the Penn by Jennifer Bowes Eagle Eye News Editor_ If you would like to learn more about the Democratic position and support the position in campaigns, then the College Democrats may be the club for you. Although there is apathy toward people voting, people should become involved in elections, said Theresa Copenhaver, the club's president. "We are a democratic society," she said. We believe in voting people into office, she added. Being a member of the club, one can be informed and "see briefly what each person stands for," when election time comes, she said. One can become "more politically active and [better] understand what's going on in the country" too, since the top complainers often are those who aren't registered to vote, said Lorie Rice, the club's treasurer. This semester the group has hosted two forums. The first dealt with the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the most recent, health care. The club tried to host events dealing with "hot topics" to inform the student body, said Copenhaver. This past year the group sponsored movies such as "JFK" and "Patriot Games," said Rice. The group also holds fund-raisers and volunteers during election time with the local Democratic party, helping with the campaign, said Copenhaver. The club is trying to get involved in the community, too, said Rice. During this past year's elections, the group held a petition drive in town for Lynn Yeakel and Harris Wolford, said Rice. Sometimes members of the group travel to political conventions. A few weeks ago. some members traveled to Baltimore, Md., to attend a regional convention which featured photo opportunities with President Clinton and a question and answer session with Vice President Al Gore, said Copenhaver. A national convention will be held in Washington, D.C. in June. "Even if you don't want to be fully active, come and be informed," said Copenhaver. Voting is what the government is built on, she added. Many people feel apathetic, that their vote doesn't count, so they don't vote, said Copenhaver. It is even worse to vote without having knowledge of the candidates and not being informed, she said. New meeting times for next semester are being determined. The clubs officers include Theresa Copenhaver - president Gary Johnson - vice president Susan Woerner - secretary Lorie Rice - treasurer Republican discusses "seductive" left by Jen Baer Eagle Eye News Editor_ Republican David Horowitz described the radical, or leftist, vision of the world as being "very seductive" in his speech "DeConstructing the Left, " which he gave in the Parsons Union Building (PUB) Meeting Room 2 on April 20. "Human beings are funny in that they have the capacity to believe almost anything," said Horowitz, who was once a radical Democratic speaker. It is ridiculous to believe, as leftists do, that America is a racist country, he said. If this is trutf, why aren't black Americans leaving the country to go to Africa, a country which is run by blacks, Horowitz questioned. The speaker also pointed out that many Haitians want to come to America. "It's better here than it is in Haiti, which has been run by blacks for 200 years," Horowitz said. Also, millions of Mexicans illegally cross the border to enjoy the privileges available to those in this country, he said. Minorities have more privileges and power in America than anywhere else in the world, according to Horowitz. Another point Horowitz made in his sf>eech was that women are a majority in America, and their status has changed dramatically in the last 30 or 40 years. When the oral contraceptive was invented, it was inevitable that women would move into the workplace, the Republican said. Except for in a few fields, such as construction, there has been no "huge resistance" to women moving into the workplace, he said. It is a "phony statistic" that a woman earns 70 cents to a man's dollar, Horowitz said. If it were true, some employer would fire all his male employees and hire women to increase his profit, according to Horowitz. "It just doesn't hapfjen, 'cause it just ain't so," he said. "Of course women have power," Horowitz said as he reflected on a movie in which two men fight over a woman. Anyone who thinks women have been looked upon as mere sex objects has never seen a Katherine Hepburn movie, he said. A third point made by the Republican in his speech was that America is not a homophobic country. If this were the case, the country would not be spending so much money on AIDS, he said. His remarks that America is not a racist, sexist, or homophobic country did not mean, however, that there are no racists in America or that people in the country are not discriminated against, Horowitz said. We are not able to make people equal or end poverty, and bigotry cannot be taken out of peoples' minds, he said. Today's universities, which treat all people as equal, are the last refuge of the "diehard left," according to the Republican. "The problem with the radical agenda is that it runs up against human nature," he said. Leftists believe "you can change the world," and that is a dangerous thing, Horowitz said. "Ideology can be very, very powerful," he said. "Ideology can make you think up is down, black is white." "The agenda of the left is very destructive," according to Horowitz. "[Where radicals have power] they get into the business of thought control," Horowitz said. "If you don't agree with a radical, you're an immoral person — indecent." The other side of a story is never heard from a radical, he said. When a leftist is asked how his or her plans will be implemented, a straight answer is never received, said the Republican. "In my view, leftism is a permanent temper tantrum," Horowitz said. We need to try to "civilize ourselves" through morality, religion and respect for the law, he said. "The Bill of Rights is not about the rights people have to do things," Horowitz said. Rather, it is about limits on the government and what it cannot do to the American people, he said. With the exception of slavery and segregation, "the American idea worked for 200 years," the Republican said. "In the last 30 years, we've seen a great erosion of America's framework." Horowitz gave Affirmative Action as an example of his belief in this. Affirmative Action has created more racism and "eroded the basic principles of our country," he said. ^OTHER'S X)AY SPECIAL?! %Xr( A "l^OM" SWEATSHIRT AND ©ET A TREE GREETING QARD XJP TO A $3.00 "VAliOE.

Actually, let's not, but rather, let's think about whether Lock Haven University should ever attempt to sponsor a concert again. The SCC blames student apathy as the cause (see the letter to the editor located on this page). The students blame the SCC for not bringing a band they like. At this point, does it really matter whose fault it was? Two years ago the Bob Dylan concert brought a performer from the opposite spectrum of Arrested Development. The turn out wasn't that great. Last year's attempt at a concert was a montage of bands somewhere in between the other two performers, but we never even got to assess student interest because of a natural disaster. It basically comes down to the fact that no matter who is brought to Lock Haven to play, it will not satisfy everyone. And if a band is chosen, will it satisfy enough people to get a decent turn out? I think a spring concert at Lock Haven University is a thing of the past and the SCC should seriously consider if there will ever be another. All the time, money and work that goes into preparing for a concert does not seem worth the number of people who show their faces at them ~ whether it's due to student apathy or the wrong band.

Apathy cancelled Arrested Development Dear Editor, For those students who eagerly anticipated Arrested Development performing at Lock Haven University, we apologize and sympathize with you. A tremendous amount of effort was put into making the concert a success. Over 200 hours of student time and effort dedicated toward making this concert a reality was in vain. Any student of this University would be hardpressed to say that they were not aware of the event of the year. When the decision was made to cancel the concert, only a paltry 125 students our of nearly 3,500 had purchased tickets. This is not only pathetic, but it is remarkable that less than 5 percent of the student body purchased tickets to see a major national headlining act. If you have complained that your University offers no events for the students this is an indication as to why. The Social Committee provided the University with tremendous bands, comedians, movies and coffeehouse performers. These events all went off well with one problem, lack of attendance. Rarely have students left events feeling cheated, only why didn't anyone else attend. The planning and booking of perfomers is not an easy job, but the Social Committee does extremely well with what is available. Your fellow students are bringing Column not funnyy furthers To the Editor, My letter is in response to Lori Packer's column in the April 8 issue. I, too, am a graduate of Bishop Conwell High School, and was GREATLY offended by her entire article. In her attempt to be humorous, Lori presented a view of Bishop Conwell that is inaccurate. Most damning, however, was the fact that her column served to further the untrue stereotypes of Catholic education. What Lori failed to comment on in her article were the many positive things about Conwell that also describe the school. The memories I hold of my alma mater are not of big hair or stodgy old nuns, but men and women who held our best interests at heart. The teachers and administrators helped many young women realize that they could survive in this male dominated world. Nuns like Sister John Anne (her name is not entire- ly "male") pushed students for a reason. Sister Theresa Mary may have had trouble remembering things, however, that's what happens when you take a nun out of retirement because more teachers are needed and no lay-persons want to teach at a low-paying Catholic school. In terms of sex education, I can't remember a time during my four years when I was told by a faculty member, "Don't do it." Instead, they acknowledged the fact that we were young women and told us, "Be careful and protect yourself." We were never preached to, but rather, reasoned with. It's a shame that Lori can't remember any of the good things about the former Bishop Conwell (now a co-ed school named Conwell-Egan Catholic). When I think of Conwell, I recall Spirit Days, Father/Daughter Dances, Kudos to Greek Week participants Dear Editor, I would like to take a moment to commend the Greeks of Lock haven University for an outstanding Greek Week April 10-17. All six fraternities and four sororities represented the University with dignity and class. For the second straight year, there were no incidents or problems associated with the week long events and socials. The competition was spirited to say the least, but that never overshadowed the Greek unity that the 400 plus participants displayed all week. Certainly, apathy is not a problem among the Greeks. The crowd at Air Band was without a doubt the largest student crowd of any event this year on campus. Karen Byers and Dan Taylor deserve special praise for organizing the week's activities. Please congratulate both of them if you see them around campus. The IFC, Panhellenic Council and AllGreek Council also deserve praise and thanks for their organizational support and fiscal sponsorship. Speaking of fiscal matters, the final tally from the All-Greek Council 1994 Dance Marathon is not complete, but we are close. All of the dancers, helpers, sponsors and T-shirt buyers we thank you. The contribution to Cerebral Palsy will exceed $2,300 and may go as high as $2,500 All-Greek Council a job well done! Dr. Joseph M. Marron Dean of Student Affairs the best talent to this campu&and it is really unfortunate that very few take advantage of the opportunities available. Yes, you could blame a lack of publicity, but part of the college experience is learning how to obtain information and to act with it. Every performer this year has been publicized throughout this campus, either through posters, newspapers, radio, or any other number of means. Or you could say that you have never heard of the perfomer. Have some faith in your fellow students, absolutely no one was ever brought to this campus without ensuring their excellence. Steve Bennett Laurie A. Frattini stereotypes Big Sister/Little Sister Days, and lots of good times with friends. Speaking of which, I want everyone to know that unlike Lori's friends, mine are all doing very well. They're all going to graduate from college next year. Obviously, Bishop Conwell did something, if not many things, right. Amy Coles University sends mixed messages on alcohol Dear Editor: 1 noticed with amazement a story in your paper headlined "Free Beer!!" Apparently the city police (with cooperation of Law Enforcement) are providing free beer so students can get drunk and police can learn to use the breathalizer. The University seems to be sending mixed messages. Just this semester they brought in a speaker who advocated responsible drinking but now they are sanctioning a venture where students are supposed to get drunk. I'd like to know just where the Office of Student Affairs stands on this issue. To students I would like to say that if you want to spend a day in June getting drunk, you should probably buy your beer and stay away from this bash. Free beer isn't worth it: if you go td the Day's Inn bash, you are going to be known to every police officer in the area and you are going to contribute to their skill in being able to catch you later. No one at this University has any thing to gain by cooperating in this venture.
