Katelyn Roussos, also a senior psychology major, gave a presentation titled, "SelfInjury: Functions, and Treatment, Issues." Meanwhile, Autumn Riley, a senior psychology major, and Johnny Blough, junior secondary social studies major, teamed up to present their findings from last semester's Public Issues Forum, titled "The National Language." Nicole Jacobs, the Honors Program graduate assistant, gave a titled presentation "Friendly Competition: Your Putting Freshmen through 'War' to Attain Program Unity" about the annual Freshman Discussion Group Wars. "FDG Wars is one of the best ideas we've had for the program, and hopefully other programs will adopt that idea because we chose to share it here," said Jacobs. Several students also gave paper presentations, in which they wrote papers and were given 20 minutes to talk about their findings. Kimberly Cox, a junior health science and pre-physician assistant major and AmeriCorps Scholar, spoke about the topic "Embracing Contradictions through Community Celebrating Students to Service Members." "Our program is so focused on community service that it was fun to give other programs some ideas as well as gain some from them," said Cox. a Wesley Toth, sophomore history major, presented his titled paper "McCarthyism: Witch Hunt in 1950s America." "This was one my greatest academic achievements," said Toth.

Joe Stender/Eagle Eye Students set to for sleep in (Top) up cardboard boxes the event that took place on April 3 to April 4 in Triangle Park (Downtown Lock Haven). (Bottom) The participants of the event hide from the rain and bad weather that unfortunately accompanied their efforts. The students showed up to Triangle Park, downtown Lock Haven, in order to raise awareness for literacy. Though the weather was not ideal, the turnout was still good, according to Laura Novak, the organizer of the event. "They did a good job out the toughing weather and staying throughout the night," Novak said about the students staying for the event even though the conditions were not ideal. The attendees experienced rain, wind and cold weather for most of the night, which created problems when they were trying to build their cardboard houses. Like in past years for the other sleep out events, the students built cardboard houses to stay the night in. Though some did spend the night in their cardboard homes, others opted for tents to keep dry from the weather. Michelle Bates from the Development Center for Adults stopped by the event and spoke to the atten- center and the services that they offer, as well as literacy, as this was the night's issue. Bates, a former school teacher, started off by defining literacy as "an individual's ability to read, speak and write in English." She also told the group how 26 percent of people drop out before they graduate from high school. "It's not because they're stupid, I hate that word; it's some opportunity or choice that happened," Bates said on the dropout percentage. It is also important that the teaching is done, early by reading to the children. Bates showed how literacy affects society by giving the example of the election. The election was greatly affected by literacy since some voters were unable to choose a candidate based on the issues, since they could not read up on the candidate. As for the Development Center for Adults, they partner with CareerLink. es in prisons. Bates is one of the teachers that goes to the prisons and admitted that she was a bit apprehensive when she first began going. Bates also talked about the factors that deter adults from entering the programs. Time is one of the obstacles in the way of adults, especially since half of the students in the programs are single parents. The students also are lacking in confidence, Bates noted. "My biggest job is to really be a cheerleader," Bates said of having to keep the students motivated during their free programs. After Bates' speech, the attendees were given time to work on their cardboard houses. Those who chose to participate in the spelling bee went through rounds of words until a champ was crowned and this was Chris Brittain from the Honors Program.

Can you smell what Gail is cooking? Bryn Zeigler Staff Reporter bzeigle2f« lhup.edu The grill staff at Lower Bentley named its first "Grill Champion" on April 4. The title was awarded to Gail "The Chopper" Weaver after she won the inaugural Lower Bentley Grill Royal Rumble. Weaver defeated fellow employee Thane Gonzalez" "Speedy Marshall in four events that measured the contestants' speed in customer preparing orders. The Royal Rumble began at 5 p.m., as Marshall took an order for a cheesesteak combo. In the following minutes, the eventual champion Weaver took another order for a cheesesteak combo, and the event heated up as the two participants hurried to register the fastest preparation time. Marshall finished his combo in three minutes and 53 seconds while Weaver complet- - ed hers in two minutes and 33 seconds. "His problem is his fries. Weaver is putting down her fries before she makes the sandwich," said Jerry Sieber, assistant retail manager at Bentley. The next event made for further dramatics, as two female students ordered cheeseburger combos at nearly the exact time. The grillers flew into action, working to complete the longest event of the evening. Weaver tallied another victory as she delivered her creation in 17 seconds less than her competitor, Marshall. The result was titleclinching as Weaver won her third event; the amount necessary to be named "Grill Champion." For the sake of entertainment, the contestants battled for an additional round. This bout gauged which griller could turn out a BLT combo the quickest. Weaver defeated Marshall for the fourth and final time of the "She was nice and fast," said Brelyn Kirk, a first-year student, Weaver's describing performance. Sieber concluded the Lower Bentley Grill Rumble Royal by awarding Weaver with a belt resembling the fashion of the famous World Wrestling Entertainment championship belt. The Royal Rumble was prefaced by a "Weigh-In" event during which students were encouraged to vote for which of the employees they felt would win. Upon naming the Grill Champion, Sieber picked a card from the students who chose Weaver and awarded $25 in flex money to sophomore Joseph Leonard. "I got my food faster than I normally would and was entertained while waiting for it.

All LHU students are welcome to take advantage ofthe opportunity to study abroad this summer in Spain and visit France afterward. Students will be enrolling in the Seminar course, exploring Spain and its culture. The class is taught in English and all majors are invited to enroll, regardless of foreign language or major. The study abroad program will be from July 4 to July 31. On the way back from Spain, students will be stopping in Paris for three days as a conclusion to the program.

LHW iBB J^Skiarion tlHCI I I»T As a part of enrollment, all students will present a topic and lead class discussions. Before studying abroad, students will choose a topic and present their first discussion. While studying abroad, the student will then experience their topic, for example, bull fighting. The student will attend a bull fight, interview spectators, matadors or even those opposed to the fights. Lastly, students will present a final paper at the end of the study abroad period. While in Spain, students will have the opportunity to explore its culture, sports, historical sites, leisure activities and its people. Students will tour museums and / famous locations. While staying in Madrid, the students will be living in a residence hall similar to a mini-campus. Unlike the dormitories at LHU, this residence hall allows students their own room with private bath and shower, two cafeterias, a library, chapel, theater, swimming pool and more. The student's cost for the course is the same as LHU's tuition, but there are other expenses. While not attending class or tours students are free to go out on their own, though it is suggested that students stay with at least one other person or small groups. "This is a great opportunity for any student, and all students are invited," said Dr. Enrique Herrera, associate professor of Spanish. "Students can take advantage of exploring Spain first-hand. They will have the chance to re-explore its culture and historical wealth. They will learn a lot in just four weeks. It is likely that students won't get this chance anywhere else. It is something they can only encounter in college." For more information about the study abroad program this summer contact Professor Herrera or visit the Institute for International Studies in Akeley.

A4 Animation expert shares creative juices meeting with the the time to view stuJason Seyler to see what dent portfolios, offering directors Staff Reporter each is looking for, advice and answering jseyler(« lhup.edu presenting his ideas further questions An accomplished motion picture animator Jerod Chirico spoke about his work and experiences on Saturday in Price Performance Center. Chirico, who finished his undergraduate work at Edinboro University before landing a job with Blue Sky Studios, Inc., has contributed character animation to such popular works as "Ice Age," "Ice Age 2: The Meltdown," "Horton Hears a Who," "Robots" and "The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius." "I am pleased that Jerod Chirico was able to come to Lock Haven University," said Jason Bronner, Art professor. "It is rare to have someone of his caliber and someone with his knowledge of the movie and animation business here on campus." Using his Mac laptop in coordination with the equipment set up in Price, Chirico explained the typical day of an animator, meeting and being cast with his scene assigpments, for the scenes and going to work at his desk, which often spills over to work at home. "It is hand drawn and manipulated using Maya," said Chirico. "Sometimes it takes weeks to draw and, using Maya, to manipulate the character to create a scene." Step by step, Chirico explained the techniques considered by the artist while in the conceptual stages of animation. "As the artist, once you can control these four aspects, the creation process becomes a natural reaction similar to a tennis player hitting a tennis ball," said Chirico. After the conceptualization stage, the animator listens to the dialogue associated with the scene. "If you're lucky they love what you've done," said Chirico. "But in most cases you listen to their feedback and go back to work at your desk fixing mistakes and trying to make the scene that they want." Afterward he took accompanied by a friendly handshake. "I am especially happy that Jerod was able to take time to meet with students individually and critique their art work," said Bronner. "As an art student just trying to figure out what I'm doing and where I'm going after college, having Jerod come into speak just helps me to be very optimistic about the future." said Kristin Bone. "I got to spend some time with him after the presentation, and he gave some constructive criticism on my portfolio that I'm building up as well as some of my peers' portfolios and it was an awesome experience to have someone as successful as Jerod say they liked your work, as well as giving their on thoughts what you're doing." When asked what he found most challenging while in the studio, Chirico said, "When the director and I have conflicting points of view as to where we should BflBl The forces of globalization have caused increased interaction between people, cultures and countries. In order to get a better grasp on each other's culture and tradition, it is essential to study the history of the foreign culture. As India, the world's largest democracy, emerges in Asia as a world power, it is important for people to become more familiar with the country. Knowledge of this history will assist people in understanding how relations between India and the U.S. evolved. On April 2, LHU students were given the opportunity to listen and ask questions from two scholars from India. These two Indian men were able to give deep insight about their field of study in two separate presentations. Dr. Laxman Satya, a professor from LHU's history department, arranged the presentation. In addition to the presentation in the planetarium, the two visitors also spoke in Satya's Nationalism of Asia course. The small class setting allowed the members of the class to interact and talk with the scholars on the research that they had conducted. The first presentation was given by Dr. S. Oriental College in Dharmapuri, India. He lectured on iron and wootz steel manufacturing in medieval India. Jaikishan is one of the first scholars in his field researching the metallurgical history of India. Jaikishan presented evidence for the presence of the steel industry in India during the medieval period. Out of 18,000 villages found, over 11,000 have remnants of the steel industry. Near 1000 B.C., wootz, durable high carbon steel, is believed to have originated from India. The evolution of the smelting process in stone furnaces was also explained. The production of steel in India was far Jaikishan reaching; explained that 50 tons of iron from India was used to construct the famous London Bridge. Evidence suggests that medieval India had a large and advanced trade network established. Forestry in the environment was the topic of the second lecture from Dr. S. Abdul Thaha. Thaha is a professor at Maulana Azad National Urdu University in Hyderabad, India. Thaha explained how the Indian people were being exploited by the British, especially when resources were involved. He said that the British government always followed the policy of imperial needs over that of the local people. Thaha also explained how the huge demand for wood for the British Empire and the creation of railroads across India began to affect the local people. Forests were being decimated and people were losing a way oflife because the local people depended on the forest to sustenance. "We presented in Chicago a few days ago, it was a great experience. This is my first trip to the United States and it has been nice to meet the people here. It has been interesting to see America's cities and infrastructure. I enjoy comparing the two countries education system, too. U.S. students are much more interactive and seeking clarifications about the material given," said Thaha. The two presentations were followed with an interactive discussion. The presentation was able to give the audience a window into the past; this shed some light on the history and culture of India. "I found the speakers Dr. Jaikishan and Dr. Thaha to be very interesting. I was eager to learn more about the history of India. I also found it amazing to learn that Indian steel was traded in other places in the ancient world," said Wesley Toth, a sophomore history major. The audience was able to hear first-hand the investigation and discoveries of these two men.

Letters to the Editor shows poor character and a well educated individ- When I began scanning the March 26th edition of the Eagle Eye, an article about dress codes caught my eye. Aa I was enjoying a drink at Starbucks with some fellow classmates, I became increasingly frustrated with the write up. The article was not only offensive but highly judgmental. The overall idea that a dress code should be implicated at Lock Haven University is completely ridiculous and I can confidently say I am not the only one who feels this way. For many students, how we dress is a way of self expression and suggesting a dress code is like suggesting that we should change who we are to conform to a "standard model of dress." If a student comes from a high school where uniforms were required and the only form of self-expression is a different colored ribbon in their hair, then college is a place to experiment with their wardrobe. A dress code should not prevent someone from trying out new looks. Trotman's article stated that college is not a place to be neither glamorous nor wear pajamas to class. How does the way you dress have an effect on your academic performance? If someone needs to be "glamorous" to feel confident, they should have every right to do so, no matter what others think. Likewise, if a straight "A" student has labs every morning at 8 a.m. and he or she doesn't have the extra primp, pajamas are better than skipping a class. Judging someone by the way they dress ual should have more sense than to do so. Another point that should be addressed is the fact that college is expensive and buying the latest trends is not always a luxury. If someone is thousands of dollars in debt from student loans, I doubt their main concern is whether or not they can afford the spring line at Macy's. If a student has to shop at thrift stores because of a tight budget, their wardrobe is not going to be at the same level as someone who doesn't glance at price tags. Trotman makes a statement about college preparing us for our future jobs and that we should show equal respect for both environments. This is true, but does that mean future surgeons should wear scrubs all day? Or that a business student with hopes of becoming a CEO should dress in suits? I don'tthink that would be entirely practical. Many students majoring in health and physical education have several activity classes throughout the day and comfortable clothing is a necessity for this type of schedule. Overall, I did not agree with any points that Trotman made in the article. Why should one person's opinion about what is acceptable set the standard for thousands of students? Additional stress in the morning about "appropriate clothing" could not possibly have a positive effect on the students at Lock Haven.

N E Sexual assault survivors' voices heard William Dowd Staff Reporter wdowdfalhup.edu Awareness was raised, and healing took place during "Take Back the Night," an event organized in Lock Haven's Triangle Park by Clinton County Women's Center for Sexual Assault Awareness Day on April 2. The center decorated Triangle Park with 71 balloons. Each balloon represented a survivor who had come to the center following a sexual assault incident in the 2007-2008 fiscal year. This 71 survivors figure is slightly lower than the 86 survivors in 2006 - 2007 fiscal year; however, it doesn't represent all sexual assault survivors in Clinton County for that year, for many cases go unreported. Three balloon colors were used to represent sexual assault victims: 16 red balloons flew for children, 38 teal balloons flew for adults, and 17 white ones flew for friends, family or significant others who needed guidance from the center on how to counsel those who revealed they had been sexually assaulted. The balloons were lit at dusk. "These numbers only represent those we've helped at the center," said Julie Condo, a staff member of the center. notion that victims of sexual assault are taken advantage of. For whatever reason (rape, incest, sexual abuse, etc.) perpetrators do it, it's always for a reason of gaining power, stripping the victim from their identity or voice. Participating in the event offers survivors an opportunity to get their voice back, their identity and their power, once a transition from victim to survivor occurs. "Take Back the Night" is an international movement and organization that believes in speaking out against this type of violence. Speaking out will help bring empowerment and courage to others for coming out as well. Cindy Love, the director of the women's center, shattered her silence at the evening event 36 years after her own sexual assault experience. "I never told anybody, except my husband and roommate," she said, having had a sexual assault experience when she was only 16 years old. While in Romania, she was an ambassador for friendship on behalf of the United Nations performing in a drill team. A lifeguard at one of the hotels forced himself on her while they were alone in an elevator. She attested to telling her parents about the but didn't !

The first woman spoke of her experience involving three men raping her in Williamsport. The second one spoke of being sexually molested by her stepmother as a child, and the last spoke of her boyfriend not knowing what 'stop' meant. After testimonies, the crowd was emotional; cries and hugs were scattered throughout. Then the crowd was led around the sidewalks of the park by Traci Bletz, legal adviser for the center. People held signs reading: "Don't blame the victim," "Break the silence," and "No means no." Bletz led the crowd in a chant that went like this: "Survivors unite/Take back the nightAVe will not be victimized!" Condo remembers when the first "Take Back the Night" rally occurred in 1994. "We had two groups: one group walking from Clinton County Courthouse and the other walking from the Woman Infant Center along Bellefonte Avenue," said Condo. The two groups would meet at the Will Dowd/Eagle Eye four-way intersection located on The Clinton County Women's Center, located at 34 West Main St., North Fairview Street next to the hosted the event and stressed the importance of sharing unfortunate new Alumni building to rally with experiences that some women may encounter in their lives. their signs. the ceremony gave anyone a chance to write down something they The figures don't represent the go into details, until the night before wished to free themselves from on a victims who decide to remain silent this year's "Take Back the Night."

"I was shocked to find 71 people were victims," she said noting that a lot of this type of violence is kept under the rug. As an intern of the center, Davison was asked to give a brief history of "Take Back the Night." She announced the organizations first rally was held in 1976 at the International Tribunal on Crimes Against Women where women walked the streets of Belgium with lit candles. Now the organization has turned into an international movement for eradicating human violence across the board. According to Condo, this evening has carried the same goals as the first rally in 1976. "We're creating a feeling of collectiveness, of togetherness... the night is also to honor those who've been sexually assaulted in our community," she said. The night's purpose can be summed up in what Shannon Huseth, outreach coordinator for the center, had to say: "People shouldn't be ashamed or embarrassed to tell their sexual assault experience. It can inspire, it can really help others." According to Huseth, Clinton County Women's Center is one of 63 women's centers in the state of Pennsylvania. In 2007 to 2008, the center reported over 866 people coming the center because of domestic or sexual violence in Clinton County alone. *Call for Daily Specials & Soups Breakfast Kkk*.

' Today . bbbbbi Friday Photo Courtesy of Sports Information Kristin Erb pitched the Lady Eagles to three victories against West Chester and Bloomsburg. Erb set the record for most career wins among Division II pitchers. Jason Seyler Sports Writer jseylerfalhup.edu Kris Glad Sports Editor kgladfalhup.edu Saturday The No.6 softball team (29-5, 7-1 PSAC Central) upped their winning streak to 22 games over the weekend before suffering their first lost in over a month. As they swept PSAC Indiana opponents of University Pennsylvania (16-14, 35 PSAC Central) and West Chester University (21-15, 3-7 PSAC East), the Lady Eagles explosive offense outscored their opponents 18-2 heading into Sunday's game against Bloomsburg University (20-4, 5-1 PSAC Central) with a 12-0 record in league play. "Against West Chester it took us a little bit to adjust to the pitching, but they are very, very good pitchers. We attempted to adjust and we manufactured some runs. It was nice playing West Chester," said Sarah Norris. Game one featured a dual pitcher's as Kristin Erb went against Bloomsburg's Tara Reed. Erb hurled her 19th shutout ofthe season in seven innings of work. She had nine strikeouts and only giving up two hits. Ilia Lopez had the game-winning RBI in the top of seventh inning hitting a two-out double to score Julia Popovich, who went 2for-3 in the game, to lead the Lady Eagles to a 1-0 victory. Norris, Amanda Roosa, Erica Eisenbise and Brittany Muthard each had a hit against the Huskies. The second part of Offensively, Lopez •continued her hot bat going 2-for-4 and scoring the only Lady Eagles run in game two with a Roosa sac fly in the sixth inning, following a Norris single that put Lopez on third. Erb only gave up six hits, but one too many, as local Jersey Shore graduate Lacy Mauro singled in the bottom of the eighth inning to lift the Huskies to a 2-1 victory and ending the Lady Eagles' win streak at 22 games. "For Bloomsburg, they're a really good team. We played them as hard as we /could, but it didn't go/in our favor the second game," said Norris. "I think we learned from this game." The Lady Eagles have been led all season by the lights out pitching of Kristin Erb, who last week became the NCAA Division II all-time leader in wins breaking a ten-year record and finishing the weekend with 145 career wins. For four straight weeks Erb has been named PSAC Central Pitcher of the Week.

B2 Lacrosse delivers huge upset against Gannon T Kris Glad g Sports Editor kglad@lhup.edu With five games left in the season, the No. 8 Lady Eagles (8-1, 4-1 PSAC West) made a strong push for the post season in their most recent games, cruising past Seton Hill (3-10) on Saturday and upsetting No. 6 Gannon University (9-3, 3-2 PSAC West) 9-8 on Wednesday. Both wins extend the Lady Eagles current winning streak to three. With both Gannon and Lock Haven ranked among the top 10 in the nation, this match was sure not to disappoint fans as both teams are trying to make a strong playoff push. The Lady Eagles didn't let the fact that they were the visiting team stop them. "There was nothing more important than winning that game. It was the only thing that was going to keep us surviving in the conference and in the country, if we want to go to the NCAA, it means pretty much winning the conference or taking second in the conference and I s*ay winning the conference because what is the point, if you can't win it all," said Head Coach Kristen Selvage. Gannon struck first scoring their first goal almost seven minutes into the match. Less than a minute later Allison Berger tied it up for Lock Haven. Gannon proceeded to come right back jumping out to a 3-2 lead, eventually turning into a 6-3 lead. The Lady Eagles quickly changed the momentum of the game with 46 seconds left in the first half, as Kayleigh Johnson scored the first of six unanswered goals for LHU. Amber Hoch would put the Lady Eagles within one as they entered half time. With the momentum firmly behind them Lock Haven let loose on the Lady Knights. Leigh Titus scored the first goal of the second half to tie the match at six apiece. Hoch and Titus combined for the next three goals to put LHU up 96. With 7:05 left to play the defense for Lock Haven really stepped it up. With Gannon pulling to within one, the Lady shut down Eagles Gannon for arguably the most important victory of the season. "We played smart and composed when we needed to, which was something we had been working on," Johnson. Leading the attack for the Lady Eagles was Hoch, with her team high four goals. Titus provided three goals and the only two assists for the Lady Eagles that day. The Lady , Eagles had a combined 16 shots on the Gannon goal. When Lock Haven needed their defense they showed up. Katie Zichelli and Krystalle Neighbor turned out solid performances, with each forcing a turnover. Heather Sacko played the entire match for the Lady Eagles. She had five saves, two in the first half and three in the second half, while only allowing eight goals. Coming off that impressive win, the Lady Eagles prepared to face Seton Hill University.

Track and field capture titles in PSAC challenge Kris Glad Sports Editor kglad@lhup.edu After taking a week off, the track and field teams traveled to PSAC rival California' (Pa.) Saturday to compete in the PSAC West Challenge. The week of rest really helped out both the men's and women's teams as they both captured first place. "I think overall, the team competed really well," said co-head coach Heather Leverington. The men's team captured nine individual and team events on their way to recording 247.5 points on the day, blowing away the competition. The closest team was Slippery Rock with 140 points on the day. Leading the way for the Bald Eagles was Chris Edelman. Edelman took two individual events along with being part of the men's 4 x 400 meter relay. Edelman took first in both the 200 and 400 m dash. In the 200 he finished first with a time of 21.83, edging out teammate Greg Mock, by .03 seconds.

Edelman along with Steve Roberts, Kevin Moore and Ben McConnell finished the 4 x 400 m relay in 3:20.60. They beat out other eight teams including two others from LHU. Randy Sylvia was the only other solo double-winner for the Bald Eagles. Sylvia took first place in both the discus and hammer throw. In the discus he threw for a distance 47.05 m. and in the hammer throw he threw for a mark of 51.33 m, establishing a school record. In both of the throwing events, Lock Haven captured the top spots. In the hammer throw they went 1-2 in finishes and for the discus the Bald Eagles went 12-3. Chad Yurchick took both second place finishes, while Logan Wolfe took third in the discus. The other four top finishes came from the track events. In the 100 m dash Greg Mock finished with a time of 10.73. Mitch Miller took first place in the 5000 m run with his time of 15:23.85.

Morse jumped 1.73 m, which was .10 m higher then fellow Lady Eagle Lauren Edelman. Morse's jump earned her another trip to the NCAA Division II national tournament. The Lady Eagles really shined in the throwing events and the long jump. In the discus throw, Lock Haven had three Lady Eagles place within the top five. Vanita Moses and Rachel Hicks finished first and second respectively. Moses threw for a distance of 40.16 m and Hicks for 38 m. Karle finished Myers in fourth place with her distance of 36.08 m.

The Lady Eagles were also able to have significant finishes particularly in the track events. Shala Simms took first in the 800 m run with her time of 2:15.59. Lindsey Lambert captured first place in the 3000 m finishing run, in 10:32.75. In the 10,000 m run April Salinas was lone Lady Eagle to compete in the event.
