Vol. XXI No. 12 Lock Haven State College Tuesdai;, October 17, 1978 Matthews and Mottet Recieve Awards LOCK HAVEN - Two faculty members at Lock Haven State College have been ''Distinguished Faculty" this year by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, one for excellence in teaching and one for excellence in academic service. Dr. George Mottet, professor of political science, was among ten faculty in the state college system to win a Distinguished Academic Service Award, which carries a cash grant of $6,000. Dr. Peter R. Matthews, associate professor of special education, was one of eleven faculty in the state college system to be honored with a Distinguished Teaching Chair and a cash grant of $3,500. Matthews had previously been designated as Lock Haven State College's Commonwealth Teaching Fellow, a local award .carrying a $2,500 grant. Currently in its fourth year, the annual awards program was created through the 1974 collective bargaining agreement between the Commonwealth and the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculty (APSCUF) as a means of bringing recognition to outstanding faculty for their service in education to the Commonwealth. Dr. George Mottet was selected for his contributions and service in the field of international education. Since 1971, he has been responsible for bringing students from Argentina to Lock Haven State College on a non-credit basis to conduct research and broaden their educations. His efforts to establish a formal educational exchange program between Argentina and the United States became reality last spring, and he is currently serving as national coordinator for the program, which brings professional educators from Argentina to study at colleges in the U.S. and in turn sends U.S. educators to Argentina to serve as educational advisors. He also organized the Model United Nations program at LHSC, established an internship pro- gram for LHSC students with the Organization of American States headquarters in Washington, D.C, and is organizer and director of the Latin American Center of Pennsylvania, which sponsors exhibits, speakers, and artists from Latin American countries. Last year Dr. Mottet served as the exchange professor at Marie Curie University in Lublin as a member of the LHSC -Poland Exchange Program. Dr. Peter Matthews was selected for the outstanding job he has been doing in developing the teaching courses in special education. His recognition was based, in particular, on his development of courses which provide students with a practical application in understanding how to work with the mentally and physically handicapped. Over the past seven years, he has taught 12 different courses and a total of 1,620 people in these courses, as well as serving as advisor for SO students and a sponsor of eleven student independent stu- Homecoming Events Planned By SUSAN SHELLY "Famous Films of the 70's" will be featured as the theme of this year's Homecoming, scheduled for this weekend.

One example of the type of practical experience he stresses is found in his course on "The Physically Handicaped," where each student must simulate being handicapped by remaining confined to a wheel chair for 24 hours, must intereview a physically handicapped person, and must observe a physically handicapped person in an educational setting. Mottet and Matthews are the first faculty from Lock Haven State College to be recognized in the statewide competition. The official awards ceremony will take place in Harrisburg on November 28. OLYINKA BOYA and Elizabeth Alozie are Nigerian students attending LHS. [Photo by PAUL ANTRAM] Nigerians Experience Prejudice This is the third of a series on foreign students at Lock Haven State. By SUSAN SHELLY Olyinka Boyo came to the United States from her home in Nigeria in Jan. 1977. She will leave in May 1979 with a degree in social work. Elizabeth Alozie, also a Nigerian, came to this country from France where she was attending school in Jan. 1978. She will be at Lock Haven State approximately two more years and will be qualified to teach secondary education French when she leaves. Both women atended secondary school in England for at least one year and Miss Alozie attended L'Universite de Nantes in France for one year before transferring to LHSC. She explained there is no secondary education program in France which is what she wanted.

It is reported on page one that in an interview, two Nigerian women said they have experienced prejudices and do not feel welcome in Lock Haven. Every student, faculty and staff member is responsible for their feelings. A n d if the two women interviewed reported these feelings, it is likely that many, if not all of the rest of the foreign students have similar feelings. Miss Boyo and Miss Alozie said that most people on this campus will not take the time to consider them as individuals, not just one of a group of foreign students. Not only is this unfair to the foreign students who come here, willing to try to overcome barriers of language and cultural differences, but it is unfair to American students on this campus. I don't think it is realized what a learning resource the foreign students are. There are students here from Poland, Nigeria, Argentina, Cameroon, Japan and many other countries. They come from countries having different political systems than our own, different cultures and they possess a knowledge of many things unknown to us. To not take advantage of their knowledge and diversity which can expand our own knowledge and experience is wrong. W h a t are the chances that students here will travel to Nigeria or Cameroon or Japan? It's not likely. A n d yet we pass up marvelous opportunities to broaden ourselves by interacting with the people of these countries. W h y must people on this campus be so narrow? Why should a group of four or five friends, acquaintances from classes and Friday night parties be the limit to college life? What valuable experiences are gained from these exposures? I think if we ali take time to look past our own narrow world, we'll be much better off. W e might be surprised at what we f i n d , too. Just Around The Corner!

It was another cold gray dawn in Sinus Valley. On the holy grounds of the campus, all eyes turned towards the chimneys of Sullivan Cathedral, awaiting. The diciples gathered in the courtyard of St. Russell's basilica to chant the ancient hymms known only to the devoutly religious. The answer would come shortly. Those of us who were standing together felt the wind cut through our clothing, sending shivers across our bodies. The tension was mounting, questions were being raised by the crowd. " W h a t ' s taking so l o n g ? " " W h o are they voting f o r ? " Members of the press were anxiously contacting their editors with the latest word. Several diciples distracted the crowd by throwing a holy frisbee across St. Russell's courtyard, spattering their garments with dirt. Wait! Is this a signal? Have they reached the magic number of 77^- No, it's a false alarm. The crowd sighs a nervous element of relief. The sun is brighter now. It shows the temple of Himes high above the alter of Thomas. Some are bowing and praying before it. Others mock its pagan stilts, prefering to worship the ground it stood on. Women weep in the square, men tremble at the knees. There are many problems needing to be solved, a leader is desparatly needed. The traditional mourning period is over now Since the mysterious dissapearence of Pope Evelyn I, the college of student life cardinals have been hampered by indecision. The former Pope of Student Life ruled with an iron septer. A likely successor is Cardinal Ronald, formerly the Patriarch of Kutztown, but his managerial and leadership abilities are still questionable. Perhaps Cardinal Marshall, newly appointed Archbishop ofW a i t ! Smoke is coming out of Sullivan Cathedral. I can't make it out yet, the pollution is too dense. Is it white or black? The crowd senses it also, tension is becoming unendurable. W i l l Lock VaticHaven elect a new Pope? ...No, the smoke is black, no majority has been reached. A day of prayer will be called to ask for guidence from the Holy Father. Alas, the people must wait, unguided, unled. If there are some who wish to know what the college of Haven Cardinals are thinking, they can find out by eating holy wafers and drinking from chalices in the high alter of Bently between 9:45 and 10:30a.m. Here, the cardinals spend their time drinking holy coffee and c o m m u n i o n donuts every day. Meanwhile, the smoke is still black, as the people wait on, into another night, hoping and praying for the election and the telltale white smoke. C O M M E N T A R Y BySUECWYNN The last taste of summer has finally left us, opening up the door to fall. Have you taken the time to look at the mountains that are surrounding us? M a n y of us are so caught up in ourselves that the little things in life, such as the beauty of the trees are missed. W e see them everyday as we make our daily rounds through the campus, and when we look out the window we are surrounded by little specks of cheery color. But have you really thought about why suddenly all the green leaves on the trees decided to change color at one time, some yellow, some pink and yet still others orange, leaving the mountainside to look like a giant sunburst. When winter sets in, the trees will loose their color- leaving us with the dreariness of death. So take your noses out of the books and try to put your mind into the beauty of nature. It must be there for a reason. Then fill your lungs with that fresh air and smile for life is beautiful. Enjoy it while you can for like fall it will not last forever, but at least the memories will be there. We c^rts FRANCESARNDT His Girl Friday, a 1940 comedy directed by Howard Hawkes, is to be presented tonight at 8:00pm. in Raub 106, and tomorrow night at 8:00p.m. in Ulmer Planetarium. The film, the third presentation of the Humanities Film Series for this semester, stars Cary Grant in the role of a newspaper editor, and Rosalind Russell as his star reporter. Conflicts and comedy arise when Miss Russell decides to leave the newspaper to get married, just as the biggest news story of the year is about to break. Complicating matters is the fact that they were once married to each other. His Girl Friday is a comedy classic, and has been called the last (and probably the best) of the 1930's "screwball" comedies. Accompanying the film will be a classic Chaplin short. Easy Street.

But the words of one challenging hockey hopefuls from New York echoed another thought, "We were psyched to the kilts to take on Lock Haven." Take on they did and managed to upset its LHS hosts by a 2-1 margin in a contest played throughout a steady drizzle. The first half was scoreless as a tough Cortland defense aided by the slippery field conditions kept the Haven offense at bay. The game moved up and down the field throughout the half as neither team could sustain an attack. The Lock Haven women had 14 shots on goal compared to Cortland's 4 but were unable to find the empty crease between the goalkeeper and the goal. The Haven offense penetrated and passed well but lack of control in'fhe opponent's circle prevented any scoring. Cortland got off, some hard drives of its own, but goalie Karen Kirmeyer came through with several fine saves. The second half provided some well played and exciting hockey on the part of both teams. Lock Haven offense led by Mary "Skeeter" Fleig and Kilt Pallestrone had several strong attacks in the middle of the half but the northern opponents held off any scoring attempt. Sue Sadler and Donna Jamison also played well for the locals and came through with fine stickwork in key situations. Cortland State was awarded a penalty comer and scored as Beth Cander slammed home the first goal of the contest off the handstop.

Lock Haven was awarded a free hit near the Cortland goal. As Fleig push-passed the ball to the goal, opposing goalie, Horten kicked the ball to the middle of the circle. Pallestrone alertly moved in and tapped in the tying goal of the contest with five minutes left. The Haven women were awarded four penalty corners in the last minutes of the game and came up empty on ali of them.
