LOCK HAVEN STATE COLLEGE

Friday, Febuary 18, 1983

Stemler nominated for Board
By Kim Wilkinson
News Editor
John Stemler, a student trustee of Lock
Haven State College (LHSC) has been officially listed as a nominee for the Board of
Governors for the State System of Higher
Education, according to the Association of
Pennsylvania State College and University
Faculty (APSCUF) hotline. There is some
discrepancy as to whether Stemler will be
eligible, according to APSCUF.
Section 2004-A of Act 188, states that,
"The student members shall be selected
from the presidents of the local campus student government associations, or their local

equivalent."
The conflict is over how the word
"equivalent" will be interpreted.
Stemler is an off-campus senator, a
former treasurer and parliamentarian of the
Student Cooperative Council (SCC), a
member of the campus curriculum committee, and a student trustee. He also served on
the Presidential Search Committee, and he
is a former High Hall president.
Stemler said he was surprised, "I didn't
realize I was being considered for a position
on the board." LHSC's APSCUF had
recommended Stemler for a position on the
transition committee, according to Dr.

Bruce Young, president of LHSC chapter
of APSCUF. The transition committee was
designed to enable a smooth change to the
new systein.
Dr. Craig Willis, president of LHSC said
of Stemler's nomination, "I was real happy
to hear, I think his training for it is excellent."
Stemler said goals of the student
representatives should be to "protect the
rights of Ihe students and present the
students' viewpoints to the governor."
Stemler also said. "I think if we (students)
are going to get anything accomplished, we
are going to have to work collectively."

An unofficial late report from the governor's office has stated that Stemler's name
has been removed from the list of
nominees. Despite attempts, the Eagle
Eye has been unable to confirm this report.

senators were given suggestions and comments about the Eagie Wing snack bar by a
member of the Department of Education at
its Wednesday night meeting.
Wayne Clickner was asked by the college
administration to review the snack bar.
Clickner estimates that the snack bar will
have a $ 10,000 loss by year's end and it may
be higher if no changes are made.
"I haven't written my final report, but

you can't buy top quality and then sell at
rock bottom prices," Clickner said. "I feel
it is necessary to raise prices as long as the
deficit keeps building up."
Clickner had two specific criticisms of the
snack bar, specifically that labor salaries
are too high and the kitchen is not very well
organized. He also said that some students
go through the line and don't pay for their
purchases.
"Sanitation is also very bad there (snack
bar). The DER (Department of En-

vironmental Resources) could close it
tomorrow and I'm not kidding," Clickner
said.
Clickner advised the senators to think
about contracting the snack bar to a
business to try to bring the deficit back
down.
Also at the meeting, SCC President John
McNamara welcomed 11 new senators who
were elected to their various positions last
week. "I want to congratulate all the new
senators and hope you will help guide the

student body," said McNamara.
PUB administrator Joe Skarbowski announced that the first steps of his program
"Alternative '83" are underway. On Saturday at 7 p.m. Jeff Sheppard will be performing at the lower lever of the PUB. Skarbowski also said that all clothing in the
bookstore will be on sale at 207» savings
from February 18 until March 4.
The senate also recognized the constitution of the Geo-Science Society.

Morris, "Stars on 45*' create revenue losses for SCC
By Mike Flanagan
The figures on two shows sponsored
earlier in the month by the Student
Cooperative Council (SCC) show a total
loss of $3,992.72, while the Stars on 45
Concert cost the SCC $3,459.1 S.Morris cost the SCC $4,000 just for being
there, while almost $350 was spent advertising on WSQV.
Other costs included security'$100,
transportation'$75, lodging'$77, and

printed tickets'$45. Only 253 tickets were
sold and accounted for almost $850 in
revenue.
Gary Interdonato, SCC cultural affairs
chairman, believes that the Morris contract
should never have been signed. "The people who signed the contract didn't think
when they signed it," said Interdonato,
"Also we had a case of bad publicity where
people thought that the concert was free."
Joan Patrick, former cultural affairs

A Word About The President
Lack of student attendance was
evident at President Craig D. Willis'
open discussion on Thursday afternoon.
Willis discussed various matters of
campus concern. First, enrollment of
Lock Haven State College (LHSC) is
up this semester. There are 2,145
students, according to Willis. The
number of applications returned to
LHSC is down by eight percent but.
"Is no cause for alarm," said Willis.
The handicapped, water and
rhomas Fieldhouse projects are running smoothly, according to Willis'
lireport.
Willis also stated that he has
received several requests from administration and faculty for tighter
control on the Student Cooperative
Council (SCC), but Willis said the
administration is still struggling with
what the actual relationship should

be. Willis also mentioned that Judy
Rinelli, McEntire Hall director, will
be working closely with the SCC to
determine what type of guidance is
necessary. George Marshall, vicepresident for the administration of
LHSC said of the relationship between administration and the SCC.
"We (administration) are going to
take more of a firm hand than we did
in the past."
Willis announced that the state has
decided they will pay their portion of
the settlement for Howard Reynolds,
the former Parsons Union Building
(PUB) director.
Willis' plans for the future of
LHSC involve a "thrust toward
development," with special and
academic programs. No specific
plans were mentioned.
Also present at the discussion was
Representative Russell Letterman.

chairman, organized the show and said that
when she signed the contracts, everything
was in order. She said that the booking
agent told her that all the facilities at Lock
Haven State College (LHSC) would be sufficient for the show. "I checked with
everyone... and we made sure we did our
homework before we signed the contract,"
said Patrick.
Patrick said that when she arranged the
concert, admission was free. She said she

was surprised when she returned after
Christmas break and found that $3.(X) was
being charged for the show. She said of the
. change in the admission price policy, "The
agent didn't exactly tell me all there was to
know."
Stars on 45 charged $3,OCX) for a concert
here. Ticket sales showed $545, but with
other expenditures, including security, printing tickets, and WSQV advertising, the
SCC still lost almost $3,500 on the concert.

Black History Month underway
with various programs and events
By Kim Wilkinson
February has been designated Black
History Month, according to Hardid
Chambers, president of the Lock Haven
Sute College (LHSC) Black Cultural Society (BCS). This is the thirteenth year that
LHSC has celebrated Black History Month.
Usually LHSC has arranged speakers for
one week, but this year Chambers said,
"We decided to have programs throughout
the entire month."
The month began with a membership
drive. Chambers said he wants to stress that
a student does not have to be black to be a
member of BCS. Chambers said their objective is to promote an awareness of black
culture on a predominantly white campus.
Garrett Morris was the first featured
speaker on February 6.
A film titled "Black History: Lost.

Stolen or Strayed." and narrated by Bill
Cosby was shown on February 8. Chambers
said the film fit well with the theme of this
year's festival.
On Monday. Flo Kennedy, a lawyer,
author and an activist spoke on civil and
feminine rights.
Wednesday. Charles Blockson. an
historian spoke on the "Underground
Railroad in Pennsylvania." Chambers
stated "I'm happy with the attendance."
Nathan Gadsden, an actor, comeditm
and poet will present a night of entertainment entitled "Poetic Justice." tonight at 8
p.m. in Woolridge Hall.
The final event will be a Fashion/Variety
Show and dinner, which is by invitation only, will be held on Saturday, according to
Chambers.

From the Editor ^s desk
College Graduates: A Minority
When I first came to this institution of higher education, I really had no Idea
what to expect, but t certainly had no Idea that I would become a a minority.
What do I mean by a minority? Well, think about it for a moment. College
graduates, as a group, make up only a small percentage of the population In
America as well as the entire worid.
Being a minority In this respect, does not necessarily result in discrimination, but there are some serious Implications to this. First of all, If there is one
thing that I learned here at LHSC, it is to question a lot of the stereotypes that
are so prevalent in our society.
As a matter of fact, there are so many stereotypes in our society that one
could write a book on them. The point here Is that once you leave this little
greenhouse, you'll have to deal with these stereotypes, and that can be very
frustrating, especially If you are liberal hearted.
What kind of stereotypes am I talking about? Well, have you ever heard of
Archie Bunker? Archie may be an exaggerated case, but nonetheless, his example should be well taken. Let's face it. Not all blacks are lazy, all Jews
aren't stingy, and believe It or not, there are more than two places for women.
Those stereotypes, although they are nothing to be proud of, do not irritate
me as much as our exaggerated sense of national pride- better known as
ethnocentrism. And what even upsets me more is the fact that our educational system is responsible for ignorant displays of ethnocentrism.
Since day one in kindergarten, we all had to pledge allegiance to some red,
white and blue cloth that was supposed to be the symbol of all righteousness.
American history was taught in such a slanted way that it was merely propaganda for the U.S. Government.
Once you, as a college graduate, or even just as a student, realize that our
government has, and probably still is, pounding propaganda into elementary
school children's heads, you'll know a lot more than most people. Also, when
you realize that those labels we place on groups are silly, ignorant
stereotypes, you'll again be a notch above majority.
What can you do about it? Well, you may as well pound your head against a
brick wall, because, believe me, the pain is much less. Humiliation is never
very fun.

To the Editor
The years before World War I were
shaded by a group of political anarchists who thought that by -killing
political leaders, the world would
become a perfect place to live. A group
less brutall, but using this same tortured reason has emerged at Lock
Haven State College.
Lock Haven anarchists figure that by
firing and'slandering people they don't
like, all S.C.C. problems will be solved.
Example number one is the Howard
Reynolds incidently which showed us
all how costly a small group of minds
can be. Recently this foolish mentality
is displayed in the lame attempt to

tion technique. With no evidence to
back allegations, the LHSC anarchists
have programmed uniformed peabrained student automatons to circulate petitions. Of course preying on

John McNamara and Joe Skarbowski are doing a fine job at their
elected positions. To be hindered by a
small group refusing to shed Junior
High schemes is an insult to the
critical mind. So when programmed

door, astound their dull little skulls by
asking for some documented evidence.

WHEATIE SPEAKS
by Bill Wortman
Guest Columnist
December, January, February, and
winter drags on! What happens is
many students unfortunately find
themselves in a rut during this month
of the year. This accustomed rut is
often called the "mid-winter blues." If
your personality is lacking in one particular aspect, it is likely that you are
falling, or have already fallen into the
blues spectrum.
The symptoms of mid-winter blues
are varied. A mild form of the blues
might encompass anything from food
fights in the cafeteria to yelling
abscure remarks at people you're not
acquainted with. A more moderate
form might be ignoring a best friend's
feelings, or snapping out in a situation
where you normally would have full
control. Finally, the most abstract
emotion of mid-winter blues is when
the frustrated mind takes physical action. You find yourself throwing objects or picking fights with anything or
anyone that is available. The final
stage has definitely been reached.
Most people don't realize what
causes or controls mid-winter blues,
but studies show that the subconscious is usually the guilty party
behind ail our frustrations. When peo-

ple are Inactive or stagnant In certain
areas of their normal life style, the
most likely substitute is abnormal
emotion. The first step to be taken Is
facing the fact that you have been acting like an adolescent. The only hurdle
left is what steps can be taken to prevent uncontrolled emotions.
The key aspect of mid-winter blues is
the middle word; winter! Winter keeps
many open air people trapped between
the four walls of their dorm room. The
best possible solution for the blues is
finding indoor activities or hopefully
outdoor activities which will provide a
release for the frustrations. The
weather combined with the cold can
limit outside activity, pius the constant
black and whjte surroundings are often
times depressing. Making efforts to
meet new friends, or finding indoor activities which will satisfy our fancy is
probably the better solution.
Certainly we all understand that
frustrations are hard to overcome, but
also understand there is a good note to
mid-winter blues, and that is spring
isn't that far off. Hang in there
frustrated students, and try to be a little more outgoing. Have a bit of patience, and we will soon shed our
winter coats. If you have the blues
make a change, and as some wise person once said, "better days are coming."

Dayanada contributes
chapters to textbook
By Shawn Bingman
Dr. James Y. Dayananda, Professor of
English at LHSC, contributed four
chapters to the Business Writing textbook
entitled Business Writing: Concepts and
Applications.
Dayananda said that the editors commissioned him to write the four chapters entitled. The Craft of Revision; How to Revise
and Rewrite Effectively; Plain English,
Please; Techniques of Writing Credit Letters; and the Business Writer's Guide to Recent Credit and Collection.
Dayananda said that the whole process of
conceiving the idea for the chapters, to actual writing, to the revisions and rewriting
took approximately three years. The book
was published in January 1983.
Dayananda feels that the chapters that
are the most interesting are the chapters
dealing with all kinds of writing such as
papers, reports, essays, etc. and the chapter
dealing with the Plain English Movement.
Dayananda said that 10 states have passed a
PUiin Language Law which states that all
consumo- documenu such as insurance,
legal, and other business documents must
be written in Plain English.
Dayananda, a member of the American
Business Conununication Association, will

be presenting a paper on Revisions and
Rewriting in April at their convention in
Philadelphia.
Dayananda has other published works.
He has written two books. One was about
the American critic Edmund Wilson, and
the other was about Malgonkar, an Indian
novelist.
He has contributed one chapter to a book
on Don Quixote, entitled "Don Quixote"
which should be out in September. He is
currently writing a book about Eden
Phillpott's, a British novelist which will be
coming out later this year.
Dayananda-said that he wrote an article
entitled "Ghandi: Lawyer and LawBreaker" for the Lock Haven Reviewwhich
was a LHSC publication no longer in existence. Dayananda said that students who
are interested in the movie Ghandi.will be
interested in reading the article which is on
reserve in the library.
A graduate of Temple University,
Dayananda received his doctorate in
English literature in 1969.
He came to LHSC in 1969 where he was
Chairman of the English and Philosophy
Department from 1972-1979. He began
teaching full-time in 1979 and has been
teaching business writing courses since
1976.

Congdon speaks on abortion
Over 100 students gathered to hear Dr.
Howard Congdon speak on the controversy
surrounding abortion which was held Tuesday, February 15 in Ulmer Planetarium.
Congdon started his lecture by describing
a situation in which an eleven year old girl
became pregnant as a result of her syphilitic
father. An abortion would seem to be the
reasonable solution, but as Congdon
pointed out, not everyone would agree with
this.
Some people believe that an abortion is
not justified for any reason. Congdon said
this position is difficult to defend rationally. He suggested that abortion is morally acceptable in some cases. He went on to ask,
"Where do we draw the line concerning
abortion?"
The issue of abortion is certainly complex
and its evidence is deeply mixed. Yet Congdon feels we are not completely ignorant
of the factors involved in drawing a line to
determine when abortion is acceptable.
The following observations were made by
Congdon. A woman is a person and
therefore has a clear claim to whatever
rights a person has. Speculation concerning
the rights of a fetus are not so clear. Any
law which restricts the decisions of a
woman with respect to her own body
should have a very persuasive basis. When
attempting to use reasoning as in the case of
abortion, whatever laws are developed to
govern a person's action should be based on
knowledge rather than speculation.
It is clear that a woman has rights, but it
is not clear that a fetus has rights, or if it
does, that those rights take priority over the

Dr. Howard Congdon
rights of a woman. Therefore Congdon
concluded, that in attempting to draw a line
and give it the status of law, that we must
also seek the preservation of individual
rights.
In closing Congdon said, "Laws concerning abortion should allow for the
