Wednesday, January 28, 2004 State system considering higher costs for more credits Volume 59 Issue 2 Lock Haven, Pcnmsyttwma Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow Scott Kulah Staff Reporter Alex Hayes Staff Reporter Students at the Pennsylvania State Universi- ties may be paying more money if they wish to take more credits, under a new plan by the state system of higher education. Under the plan, the maximum number of credits a student can take without paying more money would drop from 18 to 16. If a student wishes to take any more credits, they must pay $192 per credit hour on top of their tuition. Currently, students only have to pay extra if they exceed the maximum courseload of 18 credits. For example, undergraduate tuition for Pennsylvania residents is set at $2,299 for students taking between 12 and 18 credits. For each credit over 18 students go, tuition increases $192, the increase that the State System will still be using when the credit limit drops. The system's reasoning behind the plan is that they wish to stop what they call course shopping. The system says that they are trying to prevent students from registering for more courses than they need, then dropping the class that they like the least. Judy Hample, State System Chancellor, told the Pittsburgh PostGazette that the plan will be beneficial for students who wish to take a course and complete it by leaving more seats open at registration time. Some students feel that the new plan is a hindrance for those who complete all 18 credits that they register for. "I did not do so well my freshman year and I had to retake some classes. I know that I am going to have to take 18 credits at least one semester. I do not think that it is fair for us to pay more just because some students are registering for classes and then dropping them," says sophomore Shane Hook. The plan, if initiated, will take effect at all 14 of the state universities in the fall 2004 semester. LHU presidential candidate visits campus Lindsey Martin/The Eagle Eye Colin Day scrapes off his windshield during the snowfall on Tuesday afternoon. Lock Haven received 4 inches of snow on Monday. More snow is expected throughout the region Wednesday and over the weekend. By presstime the snow had already caused the cancelation of the celebration of the life of former President Dr. Francis N. Hamblin that was scheduled for Tuesday night at 5:30 p.m. For the full story, see page 2. With President Craig Dean Willis departing, Lock Haven University welcomed Dr. Joseph Danks, as the first of six perspective presidential candidates. On Jan. 26 and 27, Danks engaged in forums in which he talked of his past experiences and his intentions for the university if he is chosen as the next president. Danks wishes to be the next president of Lock Haven University because he believes it is the final step in his career. He mentioned that every six or seven years he has had a major change in the emphasis of his career, and at this point in his life, he has reached the point that he would like to take on different kinds of challenges.

One of the "Little Rock Nine," Roberts shared his experiences as one of nine black students at Little Rock Central High School during the 1950s with over 100 students and faculty. Roberts, schooled by King in nonviolence, spoke of the September day when he, along with eight other students, attempted to enter Central High.

At 5:20 p.m. on Tuesday the National Weather Service out of State College, Pa. issued an urgent winter storm warning for the area, calling for heavy snows until early Wednesday morning. As of press time, there was already about six inches of snow on the ground, which caused many students to wonder if there would be school the next day. "I am worried that commuters coming to Lock Haven are going to have to risk getting in a accident just so they do not miss class," said junior Jeff Baney. Matt Heydt, a senior at Lock Haven also expressed his concerns over the inclement weather saying, "I don't think that there should with travel plans to take alternate routes. Carlton Cannon, a PennDot employee, said at press time that Lock Haven has already five inches and are anticipating six to nine inches for the remainder of the evening. "Right now everything is snow covered," said Cannon, "all we can do now really is plow." Cannon said that PennDot had 17 trucks operating in Clinton County alone, but was unable to say if roads would be drivable by morning.

The topic up for discussion was "Our Nation's Kids: Is Something Wrong?" Three different choices were featured in an introductory video introduced by Public Issues Forum Team leader Keri Schmid. Choice one said to put children ahead of self-satisfaction. Many students saw this option as positive but impractical. This choice leans on one parent being home at all times. The natural assumption, for many, would be that the mother stays home. Students were mostly opposed to this aspect; however, some male attendees noted they would stay home with their children as long as the female could support the family. Choice two noted responsibility should be shared for children. This choice greatly increases the involvement of society in raising a child. Freshman Jen Koshko voiced her opinion in saying, "Society should have some role in raising children but should not be the sole provider of morals and guidelines." Choice three concluded that children need moral discipline. — BiV. \J v BT^j AV/» mm- |BJ BYnl Bl\9l H _«» fcjilff*hl BkBiI BH B Tpl Jy BIBB IBM BBT*'^^'".--f Lm ■ B ■ Bfl BblL^9b ■* '"■CSbIW. ■ LSI If ■ Lindsey Martin/The Eagle Eye Students taking part in the Public Issues Forum listen as another student discusses his stance on the topic.

He painted a picture of a liberated Iraq, working with the U.S. towards their own bill of rights and a new constitution. He spoke of the children in Afghanistan that are now back in school and the new rights granted to Afghani women. Bush citied ideas for his "forward strategy" of freedom in the Middle East such as providing uncensored news services across the Middle East region. He boasted facts such as two-thirds of the known al Qaeda leaders being imprisoned. While peoples of the Middle East have been granted freedom and repair in the last year, many were critical of Bush's failure to mention many of the grave problems that still exist in the region and the loss of lives to civilians and U.S. troops overseas. "He [Bush] made only briefest reference to the causalities and the fact that 500 Americans have been killed. We never heard anything about the weapons of mass destruction that a year ago Bush confidently said Saddam had. A lot of reasoning behind his war policies has proven to be false. He passivelv admitted that his rational- In the Democratic response Bush's speech, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi of California was also critical of Bush's omission of grave problems for the United to States, pointing out the U.S. needed more support from for- eign allies. Bush applauded the U.S. economy as being strong, citing that home-ownership rates are the highest ever, taxes were cut for small businesses, and that the death tax is close to being phased out. Bush attributed these successes to tax breaks, which allowed Americans to reinvest their money into the economy. However, democrats were quick to point out that these tax breaks benefited the wealthiest Americans and that Bush exaggerated the number of new jobs created. Sen. John Kerry explained to voters in Concord, NH on Wednesday that onry 1,000 jobs were created last month, a minute portion of the administration's goal of 250,000 new jobs. While the Democratic candidates were largely critical of Bush's speech, he introduced proposals that are traditionally supported by Democrats. Many proposals were for improving education for young adults with programs such as "Jobs for the 21st Century," to make students stronger in science and math. He also proposed a $300 million "Prisoner Re-Entry Initiative" to help newly released prisoners force and $23 million for schools that want to use drug testing "as a tool to save children's lives." However, Bush failed to mention how the United States, re-enter the work RATE m already billions of dollars in debt, would pay for such initiatives, giving Democrats much room to criticize Bush in the campaign for president. "Bush clearly is paying no attention to the deficit, which allows democrats to say all he is doing is adding to the burden of said generations," future Roberts. Bush ended his speech by revisiting his conservative values, refuting the need to "defend the sanctity of marriage."

"It's not often that the general public has the chance to get involved in a project like this," Neil said. "That's something worth getting excited about." "We want to make it as fun as possible," Steve added. "It's great that we get to represent Lock Haven with our design." Not only is this the first time that this kind of design will be attempted, but it is also the first time that Lock Haven will participate in "Cows on Parade." Roxy Movie Theater Tickets Maggie Herrick/ Eagle Eye With past locations like Zurich, Switzerland and Chicago, Harrisburg will be the smallest city that the parade will take place at. There will be one cow from each of the 14 state schools. Winning this contest has given Neil and Steven an opportunity to show their talent and represent the art department, which most young artists don't have. They also received a scholarship from the state systern, who is paying for the cow and materials. At the revealing ceremony in April, they will get to meet the governor and display their work in the Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts. When the cow comes back home, it will belong to the university, but there are no definite plans for it yet. Now you're probably won- dering, why cows? Chicago businessman Peter Hanig, who first had the idea to have the cow parade in Chicago, thinks the appeal of cows has something to do with what they represent. They are friendly, nurturing, and non-threatening animals. He also believes that the surprise element of cows in a city is the key to the parade's success. "Art is about breaking down barriers. It gets people to feel, to think, to react," Hanig said.

He paints situations that he has Maggie Merrick/Eagle Eye Chet Davis talks to students about his art work. He explains how he concentrates on the human figure. experienced, and portrays the emotions and actions in a very modernistic and gestured style. Davis, a native of Pennsylvania, spoke to students about the importance of learning art history, and emphasizing the fact that painting is not a dying media. His speech was informationmoving, and I am inspired by his drive and his cause, but his paintings themselves actually do not evoke much emotion in me. If I had not attended the opening to hear him speak about his work and why he does it this way, I would feel no connection at all to his paintings. He claims that most of his works are things that he has al and experienced and he is trying to portray those events as he saw them at the time. I feel that in order for the public to enjoy the works at their full potential, they must be able to connect to the work in some way as well. This is something that I was not entirely able to do. I can see the look that he was going for, but I cannot relate to them because he has portrayed them in ijuch a personal way that it blocks some of the meaning, and it is hard for me to bring in my own views and experiences. ent.

Online trainers available for 2004 Mary Robb Farley St. Louis Post-Dispatch Are you interested in working with a personal trainer but don't feel you have the time, or money, or nerve to wear Spandex in public? An Internet trend that's growing rapidly lets you exercise at home at your own pace, but still have some pro- fessional guidance. Online personal training has been gaining momentum during the past few years, with Web sites sprouting up all over the Internet, touting personal-training services. The services vary, but most sites offer exercise programs and some have additional motivators such as email consultations with a personal trainer, buddy workouts via e-mail and online fitness fotUMM Some sites revise the exer- cise programs week to week (for members) and offer different workouts to do at home, in the gym or during pregnancy. The sites do not replace one-on-one training, but may be an option for those who think they need some direction, but not necessarily personal contact with a trainer. Steve McKinney, of Madison, 111., is a personal trainer with his own gym who started offering an online personal-training service last year. From his Web site, www.fitnessandmore.net, clients can download his emanual, "Fitness and More," for $29.99. The manual shows workthat can be done at home with dumbbells; illustrations show how to advance from one routine to the next. The Web site also advertises a outs one-half-hour personal-training phone consultation for $50. McKinney says customers can e-mail, call or visit for personal advice. Clients get in touch when they need motivation or have a question, he said, and can also sign up for e-mails with fitness tips that McKinney prepares. McKinney said he has had about 200 online clients. He is certified by the National Federation of Professional Trainers and also is a certified post-rehabilitation specialist with the American Academy of Health and Fitness Professionals. He preaches high-intensity, low-force training, with workouts that take about 10 to 15 minutes. "The goal is to get the most effect for the least dose (of exercise). Too much exercise can cause joint pain and other problems," McKinney said. Jason Rulo, a personal trainer for the Wellbridge health club chain who works at the health club's Monsanto corporate location, launched an online personal-training site just weeks ago, and already has four clients. He's been testing the site, www.pinnaclepersonaltraining.com, for a year, and is based in St. Charles, Mo. Rulo said online training can be a good choice, because it allows for easy availability of a quality personal trainer, it's more affordable - his program is $30 a month -and it's more flexible, allowing clients to make their own schedule and not have to meet trainers at certain times. at A one-time fee of $20 covers a book,"Strength Training Anatomy" by Frederic Delavier, that "breaks down every exercise, how to do it, how they work," Rulo said. Clients begin by filling out an evaluation about body weight, previous injuries, sports background, goals, nutrition and any conditions that might require a doctor's clearance. Rulo then sets up a workout card for the client to follow, including resistance training, stretching, diet tips and eventually, cardio programs. "I try to follow up once or twice a week with every single client," he said, "using email, Web chats and instant messaging." The American Council on Exercise cautions that novice exercisers who haven't worked with weights or exercise machines in the past should begin with a hands-on trainer before using an online service. ACE advises checking the qualifications of the staff that will be training you and making sure they're certified by a reputable organization. Look for an online site that's easy to navigate, and sample workout plans to make sure you understand the exercises and have enough information to be able to do them on your own. Sites should make it easy to contact a trainer by e-mail, ■ but it's even better if they also offer a phone number for those times when a cybcr-con- nection just won't cut it. And if you decide to sign up, be sure that the site requires a detailed evaluation of your health history, workout goals and current fitness level. Those that don't may simply be handing out stock workouts that aren't really personalized to specific needs. Interested in writing for the Eagle Eye?

A Day in the Life... of a Swimmer Brandie Kessler Eagle Eye Reporter ■ More than 4,200 students are enrolled in classes this semester, and we have a swim team comprised of less than a dozen young women. So, it is safe to say that the majority of students here at LHU do not know what it is like to live a day in the life of a.Haven swimmer. And yes, in case you didn't get it yet, we do have a swim team. The members of the LHU wiomen's swim team work very hard and deal with the same things that other student-athletes niust deal with, but they rarely get the credit they deserve. In addition to the two prac- ! tice sessions that they have eVery day, one from 6-8 a.m. and ofie from 4-6 p.m, their lives, wtiile in season, revolve around juggles swimming and all of the responsibilities she has being the sole senior on the squad. McClure is representative for her team and serves as a co-captain. Until recently, she was also the only member of the team who had a car at theJSAAC school, so often times she would drive her teammates to places they might need to go. Every swimmer on the team makes sacrifices for the sport that they love. Most swimmers cannot go home on the weekends because of swim meets, and if they do have the opportunity to go home, it is scheduled around their swim calendar. Most of the swimmers were physically prepared for a vigorous practice schedule because they trained in the off-season. "We would swim in the river when we first got here, and a lot of us trained over the summer, so it wasn't that big of an adjustment when we first got here," said freshman Diane Sujansky. However, morning practices during the season are the biggest adjustment for most of the team. "I definitely had a problem with that (6 a.m. practices). I'm still having a problem with that," said freshman Becca Rhoades. "By 8 o'clock you're ready to go to bed, and then you have to they are involved in. I Although balancing their academic and athletic schedules can be difficult at times, some of the swimmers feel that the more hectic schedule has its benefits. • "I know that I have to get (my work) done because I have to be at practice from 4-6 every night," said Sara McClure, a senior health and physical education major on the team. * Like many other seniors in her major, she is in her profesget up at ten to six the next However, sional semester. to do it all over," said morning unlike most of her peers, she Rhoades. trje sport TRACK Continued from back page (36' 7-3/4").

They recorded their first conference win against Shippensburg, 6057, last Wednesday before falling to the best team in their division, the Vulcans of California, on Saturday evening, finishing the week at 1-1. The Haven was physically overmatched in its 6957 loss to CalU. LHU was out rebounded 34-26 and simply outplayed in the paint, getting seven shots blocked by the Vulcans.

They sit atop the PSAC West with a 3-0 conference mark. LHU was led offthe the first half. against Ship, but it did not come easy by any means. Trailing a majority of the contest, the Bald Eagles used a change of pace from Chappell along with another powerful performance by Junior forward Joe Walker to pull offthe comeback bench once again by redshirt freshman guard James Chappell. "Jimmy Jam" led the Eagles with 19 points, six rebounds, and three steals in the contest. He connected on four longrange bombs, none bigger than a contested trey in the comer that pulled theHaven within five points with five minutes remaining, 55-50. From that point on, Cal went on a 12-0 run to seal the deal, silencing the largest crowd ofthe year and Haven's shot at back-toback wins for the first time this season. Whatever advantage the Haven felt it might have going into the half, however, was erased, as Ship jumped all over LHU and built a 15 point lead in the beginning ofthe second stanza. But the Bald Eagles never gave up, using a great mix of bench players and starters to claw back into the fight. Ryan Carson came off the bench to play key minutes in the Haven's first conference win, pulling down four rebounds and playing tenacious defense through- victory. Walker led the Haven with his second double-dou- ble ofthe season, pouring in 17 points and pulling down 11 rebounds. He also con- tributed to the win with three steals, three blocks, and as always, the most heart and leadership on the floor. Chappell's quick play off the bench turned everything around for LHU, as he added 16 points, a team best five steals, and two crucial blocks. One swat came against the tallest man on Eddie Christiano added 13 points and three assists as Brian Rieben chipped in 10 tallies and two blocked shots for LHU in the losing effort.
